I have to say that Disney is doing a great job. There are always characters out on the boat.

How is wearing a mask out in the heat? Is it tolerable?

I hope these crowds are what we will see into August, however next week once all parks are open may tell us more. Glad we have great posters keeping us posted!

Going by reports from here, around the web, and current (non-existent) wait times... this does not look like “twice as many as AP preview” crowds.

I'm betting lots are waiting for all 4 parks to be open. I'm not going to lie, if it's like this in August I'll be so happy

Are people refraining from screaming on Everest?

I screamed. Mask on. Doesn't matter so few people here that they space you out far on the train. Like I cannot stress how few people are here. Look at my photos, I didn't wait for those areas to clear. they appear to always be virtually empty.

Today feels hotter than yesterday at MK. It is hot. You know that Orlando summer hot and hunid. We are wearing the blue paper type masks. The mask makes it no more uncomfortable than not having a mask. We forget we have them on. I feel the people complaining are wearing g the cotton masks. Those can get soaked pretty easily.

I was at MK yesterday and AK feels like even less people than MK yesterday.

Yak and Yeti. Only every other table open. We may have ordered all the food.

So lunch were so good that we want to go back there again on Monday . But there were no reservations available on the Disney app. We called the number on the Yak and Yetti website and got a reservation.

So what’s the deal at AK? Surely they didn’t expect every ride to be 5 mins all day?

Likely not, but it seems people are wanting to be at MK for it's reopening day over AK. Shall see if we see more tomorrow?
