I was very upset however that I to pay for a one day ticket for only two hours of admission as my MVMCP could get me in at four. I could not believe that I had to pay twice to get in the park!
Imagine my surprise when I get to the Hall of Presidents and find it's being "Reimagineered!" This just ticks me off. Here I am in the Magic Kingdom unable to enjoy my favorite attraction because it's closed for maintenance! The worst part is next time I see the Hall of Presidents it wont be the same show.
Me and my friend didn't feel like waiting the 30mins so we got fastpasses to come back later. This is where things got sour again. That nice cast member from Big Thunder comes walking up says "We don't need fastpasses" and then back doors us onto splash! I was steaming. Now I've wasted a perfectly good fastpass that I'm not going to get back.
Does anyone remember when they used to have holding areas in the park so that if you were staying for the party you had to go to one of the holding areas while they cleared out the rest of the guest? I do. I wish they would go back to this method. It gets annoying being able to walk around the park between seven and seven-thirty and being constantly asked if we had wristbands. Also, once Disney takes away or changes something it never goes back. I mean, I remember when CoP used to be just seasonal. Now it's open all year long and just waists money since no one rides it.
Overall I did have fun at the party but there was only two other things that annoyed me. spent half the night trying to get that blanket with the castle on it for $15 after you spend $40. After visiting about every store and not being able to get enough stuff I wanted to total $40 (It was impossible. The item I wanted at this store wasn't available at that store where I wanted something else! I mean, isn't every store supposed to have the same merchandise!) we talked to a cast member who just gladly rang up the blanket for us! I cannot believe I had wasted half my night and not even an I'm sorry from the cast member.
Yes the Magic Kingdom is going to hell! I cannot believe how much my favorite park has changed over the years and its only going to get worst if the cast members and procedures I encountered on Sunday are a sign of things to come.
The Hours to the party are marked accordingly...why would you expect to get an extra 2 hours of park time when you already get 3 extra from 4 until 7pm anyways? You shoul have just gone at 4pm lol
The downtime was posted quite a long time in advance regarding the HoP. Of course it will be different, they are adding a new president like they have done in the past.
So the Cast Member went out of their way to be Extra nice to you and THIS was a Problem? ROFL
Funny I was there for the party during the 1st week of December and not one person asked me about having my wristband.
As for the CoP comment, I ride it when I am at MK, as does everyone who has went with me.... I spend hard earned dollars to go to WDW and enjoy this show...do not assume that it is a waste of their money to have it open because it IS NOT!!! Of course the song is addictive and lives on in your mind for weeks and weeks![]()
The cast member sold you the blanket so why would they owe you an apoligy for selling you what you wanted....trying to hunt down the item you want from the stores is somtimes part of the fun...if you didnt want to do this then you should have asked every CM you saw.
Well every one has an opinion, and your experiences seems so bad (or at least they way you type it out) then maybe you should just spend your dollars elsewhere...but I must admit much of your "problems" were not "show stoppers" for me. Either way...Hope it all works out for you.
I feel bad for this FRIEND of yours you had to spend an entire day with you.
Ummm, hear of the "no politics" rule?
