    A last look around my Pop Century room before checking out. This was 8:30am.
    Thanks to no lines at the Airline Checkin or Luggage Services made those two stops plus the front desk and was in line for a bus at 8:50am.
    This one screen had been out all week. Seems they could get a screen fixed in a week..

    Made it to Discovery Island at 9:26am.. not bad to check out, check bags, drop bags, and take a bus in an hour.
  • Page Number: 5
    The trail that leads closest to the Tree of Life was still closed. It re-opened a week or so after we left.
    At 9:40am the Standby was posted at 20 minutes.. it sure looked longer though.

    We had a FastPass+ for Frozen so we got in line for one last Safari. Definitely longer than 20 minutes...
