Yeah, you have to hustle for sure. Rental car, empty parks and no parking lot trams! I can speed walk to the entrance long before the 5 minute speech ends. lol
Tooting own horn...On our honey moon trip in Sept, me and my wife did every open ride in all four parks andddd spent an hour and a half in typhoon lagoon. On a Sunday. Magic Kingdom closed out the night and we had everything done twice some three times over and still left before closing.
Did the same thing in september Port Orleans French quarter or Polynesian. We stayed at POFQ but if we were five times richer would have done the Poly. POFQ was only 160$/night, POLY was 600/night. blahhhh.
Cedar Point fast pass is 100$ a day. On top of 65$ park ticket. The fast pass lines are always packed. But lines at CP can be 2-3 hours on normal days. Hopefully Disney never smells blood and makes us pay for all fast pass.
For us, to not go to Sci-fi AND 50's Diner is to die. Both a must for me and wife. I cant pick a favorite for theming but the stuffed pork chop at 50's is my favorite food in the park.
