Anyone doing the Tonys Merriest thing that is from 930 to 1230?

Now I am debating my choice for a late lunch at the plaza when we go. I guess we will just get in line for Jack and Sally at 4 when we go. They are the only characters we want to see.

Exhausted. Don’t have much to report since I was working. Was able to get to Frontierland before 12, the pretzels were a great snack for the late hour, the eggnog from liberty square was nice and cool. Grabbed the sotmk card from the firehouse at 11:59, I don’t think they closed at midnight
Found a spot for the second parade in liberty square at 10:30pm, saw a lot of people leaving after the fireworks
Sorry I’m not of more help

I caught your live stream while you were waiting for the 2nd parade and stayed with you until you called it a night. I loved watching the parade on my tv. You had a great view - which meant I did, too! : ) Thanks so much for streaming tonight.
 




I saw it posted in a Facebook group that the snowman pin set LE 300 is sold out. Not sure if that was for just tonight.
 
My final taste test, all are on my channel, along with meeting Sandy Claws.

Overall, the Party was tons of fun. We may or may not have a lot of cookies and pretzels in our hotel room. They would give you plenty. EXCEPT the drinks. The waste there was enormous. Tons of folks put their apple cider on a table, the Egg Nog was in a nice cup with a lid, and was maybe 1/3 filled if you were lucky.

Our Jack and Sally interaction was awesome, but the line moved slow because they interacted so much.

We watched the first Elsa show from very close. My little princess loved it. We rode some FL rides, and went back to reride her favorite, and currently only, coaster, Goofys Barnstormer. Rides had VERY short lines except for the mountains and dwarf hill, and most everything was walk on after fireworks.

Saw some of Holiday Wishes from Liberry Square. Not sure if the projections are amazing, but it seemed sparse on fireworks.

We did watch most of the parade. It is nowhere near as good as the MNSSHP one. Huge empty gaps, and floats that weren't holiday themed, very basic non Disney characters between floats. I bailed and hit Splash. My daughter was happy to see Woody ("cowboy"), and Santa, who I saw from Splash's lifts.

We also saw most of the last castle show, which had tons of characters.

All of the shirts were pretty blah, but we got the pin.

Then we forgot to get our KTTK cards, and the monorail was down, which blew.

Overall, a fun night. Not up to MNSSHP level though. Not sure I'd go back, definitely not on a sold out night, which tonight was , although it didn't seem nearly as crowded as Halloween night was.

I don't see the HEA projection show scheduled on the map. Does that take place during the party?

Did you got to Pinnochio's for treats? Wondering what cookies they had specifically, and what the beverages were like there?
 
No, Holiday Wishes takes its place.

Did I call it by the right name? Is HEA the fireworks, or the projection show that takes place either before or after the fireworks? I was asking about the projection show, and might have called it by the wrong name.

HEA (Happily Ever After) is a fireworks/projection show - it is replaced by Holiday Wishes during the party.
