I'm not going to write a lot as I really can't be **** ed and just want the goon points.
I went again on Friday after work, and it was much quieter - though still busy - than when I'd gone 2 weeks earlier.
I grabbed some food first in the Royal Banquet Hall. I've never set foot in the place before, but it was quite nice. The food was decent enough and not a total rip-off either. I paid about £8 for a fairly substantial mixed grill.
Space Mountain had to be done. I got a bunch of fast passes and used one of them later, but it turned out to be quicker to use the single rider queue.
Have some castle pictures.
I did Revenge of the Headless Horseman again, which was more fab this time because I was in a group with a load of hysterically screaming kids.
Obligatory rides had to be had on Big Grizzly Mountain and Mystic Manor.
Have some Grizzly Gulch theming pictures. To be honest, I’ve never paid much attention to the various “geysers”, but they’re actually quite fab.
Walking back through, I caught Sideshow Carnival Extraordinaire again.
Fit Philippino guy is fit.
I did the walkthrough that I’d missed out on last time because it started to piss down. Graves Academy is set in a school, and it’s really good. Last year, I’d preferred Headless Horseman, but I think Graves Academy is actually the stronger one. It’s longer for a start, with some amazing sets and theming.
Have another castle pic and that Snow White Grotto thing:
On the way out, I had a quick look in the Art of Animation building, which basically just has a few models of a few Disney characters.
There’s also this fab Toy Story thing. There’s a sign on the wall saying what it actually is, but I can’t remember it now. It’s really cool though. It doesn’t quite work on video, or at least with my crappy camera, but you get the idea. I couldn’t be arsed with editing, so skip to about 1:20 before anything happens.

Took some pictures of the fountain on the way back to the station. Didn’t catch the show though.
Done.
Oh, I’ll just stick this video in here that has popped up in the last couple of days. It’s not mine, but some guy flew one of those drone things over the park, and it’s pretty cool. I’m not going to start a topic for it though.

It makes the park look tiny – it is small admittedly – but it’s kind of interesting to see it from a different angle. It just shows how good Disney are at hiding buildings and ****.
