- Looking outside before venturing out for the day.
- On my way to the Boardwalk bus stop at 9am
- The thicker load cable looks to be run now for the Disney Skyliner on this section leading to Epcot.
- Almost 30 minutes later (9:29) on World Drive and heading for the Magic Kingdom.
- A convoy of dump trucks leaving the construction site as you enter Epcot near the solar farm.
- World Drive is moving this morning. A look at the new fly overs that recently opened as my bus approaches the Magic Kingdom toll plaza.
- Our driver had a Christmas Chip and Dale on the dash.
- Still landscaping and shoulder work underway as we take the flyover.
- Passing by the Contemporary Resort.
- 9:37am off the bus and walking toward security. A Magic Kingdom ferry had just emptied. It is a less crowded experience now that those guests already went through security at the transportation and ticket center or Epcot.
- 9:46am finally in the Magic Kingdom. So 45 minutes from the picture at the front of the Boardwalk.
- Town Square this morning.
- A horse drawn trolley making its way along Main Street USA decked out for Christmas.
- Other Main Street vehicles were available today too.
- The Dapper Dans performing along Main Street USA
- A video clip of the Dapper Dans performing.
- Other citizens of Main Street were out too.
- All quiet as I make my way to Adventureland.
- Used a FastPass+ for the Jingle Cruise. No backup nor wait this morning for returns.
- A jungle snowman
- Some pictures through my merry cruise through the jungle
- The Country Bears do not start until 11am.
- So Wendell was out roaming around Frontierland.
- The Liberty Belle was steaming up for test runs around the Rivers of America.
- The Haunted Mansion on the hill in Liberty Square.
- A note to come back and see the Muppets. Since the show times are not on the app or printed times guide.
- The Hall of Presidents was just about to start as we walked by so we stopped by for a show.
- Cinderella Castle
- Entering Fantasyland.
- This door for the Village Haus is for Mobile Orders only.
- Next stop Peter Pan. It was about a 10 minute wait with FastPass+
- That would be a tight ship..
- Standby was at 70 minutes this morning.
- 2 minutes to show time as we passed through Frontierland so headed in to see the Country Bears.
- Still disappointed every year that the Christmas show has not returned. (If you want to see it you have to travel to Tokyo... which is an interesting experience to hear the Country Bears sing Christmas songs partially in Japanese).
- Big Al
- The Liberty Belle steaming by.
- Christmas decorations in Frontierland.
- Making my way into Adventureland.
- 35 minute standby for Pirates. We had a FastPass+ and it took about 10 minutes.
- They were only using one load station. So half capacity this morning.
- Santa was greeting guests in Town Square.
- The regular and large souvenir popcorn buckets at the cart in Town Square.
- 12:22 leaving the Magic Kingdom for lunch.
