Hollywood Studios

Hollywood Studios was packed! They were offering extra Magic hours and I guess everyone decided to take them up on the extension. In addition, I think it was the hottest day so far in the parks.

Of course by the time we arrived all of the FPs were gone for Toy Story Mania, so we headed over and got them for Rock n' Rollercoaster. Then we wandered around going through shops and the Art of Animation store until we could get our Tower of Terror FP.

Since we really couldn't do anything else, we ended up at the ABC Commissary eating. Basically we spent much of our time at the Studios walking around waiting for our FP times. The Star Tours shop didn't even have Duffy's Jedi costume. It looks like Duffy will be going home with the same clothes on his back that he was wearing at home.

However, by walking around and observing we have been able to spot pins that we need for our collections. And - We are on a pretty good roll (pun) with our pressed penny collection as well.

After HTH it looked like we were going to be in the middle of a storm. Dark clouds rolled in and we started to roll out. I picked up my Mickey Ears that I had embroidered and we headed out. Honestly, we have had better days at the Studios - we did get to use our FPs, but it was way too crowded.

Later in the evening We had pizza delivered to the room (a new tradition ?) and relaxed watching the Big Bang Theory. Then ... it was nite nite time.
