Actually its expected once Star Wars land opens it will go away as Star Wars land is not set to be near where animation courtyard is.

I just meant it's not a tent or a temporary type thing for short term. Yes it would make logical sense they would move it later when Star Wars land opens. But that's going to be a couple of years.

We also hit the Osborne Lights tonight!

So sad it's going away.

We covered a lot of ground in a short amount of time. We had our 3 pre-selected fastpasses (Star Tours, Frozen sing along for me, Boys did Muppets, then Toy Story). After our 3 were over I texted GF IPO and got a 4th fastpass for Great Movie Ride, and boy I'm glad we had one because the line was long. We also went back to the Launch Pad again so we could get pictures with Chewbacca. Then we were starving and ready to get out of there, we hopped the bus to the Poly and had dinner at Captain Cook's. Originally we were booked for LTT tonight because yesterday we decided to cancel because none of us felt in the mood for that type of food. Not after just having a big traditional dinner the night before we came.

We had a great view of Holiday Wishes during dinner at Captain Cook's!

Then a lovely walk back...........

We actually made it for desserts in the lounge tonight, which never happens! They had some really tasty ones, and lots of variety.

I've never seen Victorian Minnie and Mickey - how cool! And your pics of the Osborne lights are amazing! Dang, these new phones take better pics than my camera.

I barely ever get my camera out of my purse anymore! These pics are all iPhone. I'm going to upload my pics from today now, but they probably won't be much better than these actually. LOL

There was a bit of a juggernaut at the beginning but it was my own fault for going right when they started. We were going to wait until later in the night but got too tired.

 

[TigrLvsPooh]

I did think to look at the traffic and parking as we left and I didn't see any signs of long waits trying to get in like people reported last week.

 

[TigrLvsPooh]

Tomorrow is Animal Kingdom! Then hoping to head back to MK tomorrow night for Skipper's Canteen. We keep trying to find a time to squeeze it in! The week is going by too fast!

One more pic.... because I love Frozen!

Good morning from Harambe!!

[TigrLvsPooh]

A great day at DAK!

Crowds were manageable, we had fastpasses from FOTLK, EE, and Nemo. We grabbed lunch at the new Harambe Market.

 

[TigrLvsPooh]

Headed to MK on the boat

 

[Wood Nymph]

What did you have to eat at Harambe Market?

Looks like a fun day at DHS. I'm so sad that the Osborne Lights will be no more. Glad you got to see them one more time.
