Continuing with
Figment's Second 24-Hour Day in Disneyland and Disney's California Adventure, 2015...
4:00 am to 5:00 am - The line was still pretty short for It's a Small World, so Figment hopped on. He was just about to board the boat when the clock struck 4:00 am and the dolls came out.
The clock struck 4:15 pm as he was leaving! At this point, he had reached the 24-hour mark (with no naps)!
Figment slowly made his way down towards the front of the park. He decided to stop at Buzz Lightyear for one final ride. The line inside the shop was much longer than when he rode it around 2:00 am. After riding Buzz, Figment decided it was time to head to Main Street to spend the last hour or so of the party watching guests.
5:00 am to 6:00 am - Figment spent the last hour of the party sitting at Jolly Holiday watching people head down Main Street. Some people looked very tired, others looked awake still. Some guests were in costumes, some in PJs. It was an interesting assortment of guests.
6:00 am - The 24-Hour Day ended with a little show on the Train Station. The characters same out (dressed in their PJs) and sang the Mickey Mouse Club good-bye song.
It was now 6:00 am and Figment had survived his second 24-hour day in Disneyland!
Figment headed back to his hotel room with all of his souvie containers and mugs!
Overall Thoughts - This 24-Hour day was very different from the one in 2014. Figment had a really good time, but it was largely due to the fact that he was
inside Disneyland for most of the event so he didn't see the chaos that was happening in DCA or DTD. For the guests inside Disneyland, yes, the parade route and fireworks viewing areas were super-crowded, but much of the rest of the park was manageable. It wasn't empty, but it wasn't wall-to-wall people either. The crowds really seemed to thin out in the park after the fireworks, but the 1:00 am PtN parade route was still busy/full. After that was when the park really felt empty (much more like the 24-hour event in 2014). Figment did notice a slight bump in crowds when the gates re-opened around 3:00 am.
If this had been Figment's first 24-Hour Day, he's not sure he would have gone back to another one. However, while busy, he still had a good time and would probably consider returning in 2016 (if they have another 24-Hour Day).
