I did take notice of some things that may be of interest here.

First the parks were very crowded by midday but early morning you can do so much. Case in point. Pooh was a walk on ride almost every day but afternoons it was a 45 minute wait.
Also Splash was a walk on in the morning (And it was hot in the morning too) but one time I saw a 180 minute wait for it. Thats crazy when you can get a fast pass, perhaps they sold ou of them at that time. Anyway I wouldnt wait in a line 3 hours for anything.

Winnie the pooh is really cuit ride if you can walk on. But of theres a line I would wait. It was pretty short. really cool graphics and they seemed to use a lot of black light effects because things sure were bright colored. We got some pretty cool pictures in the ride. I dont think you would want to wait 45 minutes for it, but then again thats just me.

Right outside of Pooh and between that and splash was an area that you could meet Pooh, Tigger and Eyore all day long. They took a drink break every hour or so that lasted maybe 3 to 5 minutes. IT was a great phot opportunity and they have a que rope set up so you would be in line and not have anyone cut.

Tried the montel cristo sandwich at Pirates and it was great!! They also gave us a pronted menu from the restaurant covering the Lunch items they offered. It had a Pirates of the Carabean Movie promo on it too.

I was given the mint Julip recipe from the guy at the window that sold them. He said in case I wanted to impress my friends at a party. When I find where I put it Ill print it here.

We bought a diet coke and it cost $2.50 everywhere (Only one size offered) We decided to as at the LaBrea bakery in California Adventure how much a refill was. He said nothing and not only did we get a refill he gave us a new clean cup. BUt he said we have to hold on to our cup to get the refills. (Guess thats a free be they dont advertize)

We saw a machine you can make your own CDs. Its in a store on main street on the right side of the road. About half way down main street. I had heard these were gone but they deffinetly had a couple different machines there and I asked the lady what they were and she said you make your own CD on them.


I will try to list more things as I think of them.

Thanks so much for taking the time to post these tid-bits. I know I for one can use them. I really want to try the monte cristo sandwhich but fear I will go into cardiac arrest while still sitting at the table. Glad to hear you liked it. Let us know if you remember any other interesting tips or hints.
