This was exactly my dilemma. Here's what I decided: The party starts at 8:30 and Wishes is at 9:30, so we're going to go to the party and gorge on desserts until 10 or 15 minutes before the fireworks start, then dash back to Main Street to see them with the crowd. This may not be getting the best value from our $24 tickets to the dessert party, but it will be our first time at MVMCP, so we want to see the fireworks the best possible way.
Sounds like a good plan We've decided to miss out this year and just concentrate on MVMCP Am praying that they decide to keep the dessert party as a regular thing and offer it whenever our next trip might be, keep your fingers & toes crossed for me
