A few observations from my trip:
-People seem to be much more concerned about their own families than the enjoyment of a large group of people: a la the woman who used her cellphone flashlight to light up the room on SGE because HER kid was scared when the lights went out. I nearly shimmied out of the harness and beat her with her kid's lightsaber but decided against it.
-There are plenty of hidden 1 table service gems at the resorts: I found the Captain's Grill every bit as delicious and beautifully presented as California Grill for half the price. I thought the same of The Wave last year. Cali beats them both on ambiance but you can't eat ambiance and I'm there for the grub.
-Hall of Presidents makes me tear up EVERY time. One of my favorite attractions.
-On a rainy, foggy night you can't really see the fireworks so there is no sense lining up on Main Street and blocking the traffic flow for a good spot. Glad we pushed through and went on Jungle Cruise instead.
-The cronut is every bit as good as billed. Delicious.
-Fastpass+ has turned DHS into a 1 hour park for us. Star Tours, then GMR, then TSMM. Thank you and goodnight.
-My family was independently noticing things like the dirty screens in Soarin', light bulbs out, etc. so these maintenance issues are being observed by more than just fanboys at this point.
That's all I can think of! Thanks for reading my February 2014 trip report.
