Rides
The queues were minimal from Tuesday to Friday but on Saturday, our last day they were up to peak wait times. I said I was going to scare myself this trip and I did - several times!!! I did Space Mountain a couple of times, Rock n Roller Coaster which was the boys' favourite ride, Indiana Jones and Crush. I missed out on ToT as the kids did it together while I minded the baby but we were rushing straight off to do Ratatouille with fastpasses straight after. Then on the Saturday the queue had gone from 5 minutes in the week to 50 minutes so I gave it a miss. I had done it in California last March.
We did lots of family rides too - In the main park we did Dumbo, Peter Pan, Tea Cups, Le Pays des Contes de Fees, Small World and Alice's Labyrinth but the queue for Casey Junior was too long on the Saturday so we gave it a miss. We did Star Tours which I thought was poor having been on the newer version in California, everyone loved Buzz but the boys were not pleased that I beat their scores and Ruth, Tyler and I did the Nautilus walk through while the boys were single riding Space Mountain. Queues for Orbitron were mental so we gave it a miss [I still remember how difficult it was to get out of this ride when I went on it with Catherine]. We did POTC, Indiana Jones and Phantom Manor.
In the Studios we did Ratatouille, Slinky Dog and Cars together. I did Crush in the single rider queue with a 20 minute wait. The kids had already done Crush while I minded Tyler one evening not long before the studio closed and he and I had gone on Flying Carpets 4 times back to back. He really enjoyed toddling around and, although we could have stayed on the ride and had more goes because it was empty and the CMs were letting people stay on, it was part of the fun for him to get off and run back round each time. When the ride closed we went and stood outside Crush and waited for the others and caught them coming outside screaming their heads off while we waved. I went to Cinemagique by myself as nobody else was interested but it's a must-see for me. They weren't interested in Animagique or Disney Junior Live either.
Some ride photos
My face is a picture - it was my first go but not the boys'.
Look at our little helper in this one!
I knew the photo was coming, they didn't
Boys did single rider on Space Mountain on Saturday when the queues were too long
John must have been minding Tyler during this one - poor Ruth hated it
