Countdown

Yesterday evening, Jeff and I made plans to get up early and head to the Happiest Place on Earth.  Our annual passport expiration date is coming up and we decided not to renew right away.  That means…lots of last minute trips!!  Let the countdown begin!

We got there just after 8 am and headed straight to Star Tours.  The fast pass time was already too late so Jeff and I decided to jump in the stand by line for the 40 minute wait.

This was my first time on since they revamped the ride and Jeff’s 3rd time.  We had heard that there were around 50 different 3D versions of the ride.  Jeff was able to confirm that there were at least 3 different versions!  Smile

After Star Tours, we headed over to Space Mountain and grabbed a fast pass for later.

Next up, Indiana Jones.

We were in line for maybe 5 minutes before the ride went down.  Ugh, this ride ALWAYS goes down.  We decided not to waste time waiting for it to come back up, and headed over to Pirates.

I love the inside of Pirates, right when we ride by the Blue Bayou.  I wanted to take a picture but also abide by the “no flash photography” rules…didn’t turn out so good.

Next up, the other guaranteed short wait ride.  We practically walked right on.

By now it was time for our fast pass return.

We decided to cut our day to a short one and made the monorail our last stop for the day.  I love how it’s right above the Nemo ride.  We watched the riders get on and off while we were waiting for the next monorail.
