Jollywood #2 report:
Arrived at lot about 5 to 7, ignored CMs and parked near skyway station.
About 15 minutes wait to get in, went to RoR for posted 25 minute wait that was 10 minutes. Got our VQ right before transports left the station.
Then we walked right in to Oga's, which was half empty, Sat right in front of Rex, and enjoyed food and beverages. Then back to Rise.
After that we got some gingerbread squares and walked on M&M since we couldn't make the main show in time. Then did RnRC with about 15 minutes wait.
Made it to the 1045 show with getting in line at 1040. Good show. Great seeing Kermit and Piggy.
Then hit TZ twice with no wait, walked up for a drink at the Tip Top club. Walked back for two rides on Slinky Dog in the last half hour. Fireworks going off for our second ride.
Walked up while fireworks continued, and watched last 5 minutes of the show in front of the Theater.
Got our coasters parting gift (hadn't heard anything about those the first party), and were in the car at 1am.
Gotta say, we all had fun. My daughter loved all the rides, my girlfriend did too, and loved the show.
Yes, the day is pricey, but we rode a ton of stuff in 5 hours, visited Oga's with ZERO planning, and saw a nice Christmas show with Muppets.
We had zero interest in the Brown Derby, as Disney Dining in general is rarely worth the money.
Overall a great night. But it should have either been longer, or cheaper.
