How long would you say FJ was open for?
Once the gates were open, was there a mad rush of people running towards the castle to get on the ride?
I'm just trying to know what to expect when I'm there Thursday morning! :look:
Sorry, I honestly couldn't say how long FJ was open. At 8am we were allowed to go from Port of Entry towards the WWoHP. I went straight to FJ and I only stopped to put a backpack in the lockers. I rushed through the entire queue, as most people were doing, because I was afraid the ride could go down. I'd say maybe 20-30 minutes FJ was running? but like I said, I couldn't say for sure. I had no watch or phone on me :-S
A lot of people were going to FJ! It was funny, the "greeters" by the entrance to Hippogriff and some other staff were telling people that Hippogriff was open too and they could ride that as well
Most were going towards FJ.
I recommend that you make sure you get to the gate of IoA at least by 7:30am so you can be near the front. I was near the middle of the "pack" and I got there at 7:40 - 7:45am.
I'm gonna catch up a little bit more on here and I'm going to bed. I'm so tired... Last night I slept maybe 2 hours with my insomnia plus the added anxiety and excitement of going to the WWoHP.
So, I'll post my detailed report and pics tomorrow. Everything I got has pretty much been seen before, so it's nothing totally new, maybe some new angles, but nothing to die for.
G'night!
