The end of the line for the Jungle Cruise was out to the Treehouse so we skipped it.
Instead we opted to wait in line for Pirates.

Jack Sparrow was out greeting guests.
The posted wait time is 30 minutes
The queue.
As you head inside it gets a little tight with plexiglass dividers.
This is where 30 minutes in line put us.. not on board yet..
It was about a 35 minute wait which was substantially longer than my patience to wait.
You can see a little of the TRON canopy from Fantasyland.
Cinderella Castle as the sun was setting
On my way to pick up dinner.
Today was the last day for Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom so the waits at many of the stations were long.
Markers all over the ground for extended queues (which were not in use this evening).
