He did a thing - June 19 - Day 6 - DHS, Longhorn and Dolphin Drinks

[Redrach1903]

Day 5 is here

Sunday 16th June

Today was Extra Magic Hours at DHS, so we were up bright and early at 6.15am. Happy Father's Day!

We left the room at about 7.30, via Fuel for tea of course and then to the walkway to DHS It was sooooooooooo humid this morning!





Turtles and ducks were spotted.





20 sweaty hot minutes later we had arrived! On the right is the Skyliner station by the way. Nicely themed to fit in with the DHS entrance!







We headed straight for Toy Story Land in the hope of getting on Slinky or at least Toy Story Mania. Wrong. Very wrong.



As you can see from the above photo, Slinky was 135 minutes and much to our dismay, TSM was already at 60 mins!

To say we were hacked off is a bit of understatement. I really believe EMH doesn’t have much advantage these days. There are just too many resorts on property now.



On a happier note, we saw Woody



At this point I can't remember why we didn’t go and do ToT or RRC? I can only assume the wait times were too high as well. Instead we got some breakfast from Woody's Lunchbox.







I was very happy to spot Lotso, since I was wearing my new Lotso vest



Grown up drinks



I of course wanted to try the s'mores toasted sandwich. Chris wasn’t that keen on the choices, but he went for the Turkey toasted sandwich in the end. $19 for both, along with a drink. We both enjoyed our respective sandwiches, but man that s'mores one was SWEET!





It was mighty hot and sweaty sitting outside. Air con would have been a treat, but we had to make do with a Babybell umbrella.



Since Toy Story Land was hoaching, we decided to head elsewhere in the park.

We thought we would go and so an old favourite, Muppets 3D Vision, but discovered that it wasn’t open until 10.

This was another thing that ticked us off, there were quite a few things not open until 10am. You'd think they'd want to thin out the crowds a bit, no?

Anyway, we had a wee wander around, mourning the loss of the DHS of days gone by (MGM). A wee bit of NYC still remains though.





Imagine how mobbed this will be in a couple of weeks!







The good thing about it not being open yet meant it was very quiet, so plenty empty streets photos!





I miss the Writers Stop







Help me out, has this entrance to the Muppets Courtyard always been there? I don’t believe it has.
