I appreciate the zen mindset of many on the thread. Unfortunately I can’t achieve the same level of peace with how we opt to craft our WDW days, and I think it’s OK to admit that. Our vacation time is short and valuable, our days at WDW are limited. At the heart of it, I seek out / appreciate methods to have better control over how we spend our time vs just knowing we will be able to ride sometime that day.
Like is always said - no system works best for everyone. As an on-site person I benefit greatly from the FP system, while others do not. Having gone through it, this one cuts against how we choose to spend our time. It’s all good. Happiness for us can be found at MK, Epcot, DAK, or the resort pool.
And now I will see myself to the “I’m all for BG’s... but...” thread where this comment belongs anyway.
This message will self-distruct when we’re back in a few weeks and I find myself at DHS at rope drop again.
