My Mom was there that day and always bragged about this blurry photo she had that she said was Alice on the barrel ride lol.

^That is pretty cool.  Alice was a great person IRL, or so I have read.

Wasn’t sure where to post this so hope this is ok.... I received a health screening questionnaire for our visit on the 2nd. However I only had one to fill out and there is three of us going. Does the one screening work for everyone or how do I get to my two daughters health screen? Thanks in advance guys!

It's one per group, so that should be all - however, you'll have to fill it out within 24 hours of your visit. So right now would be too soon to do so.

Had another dining plan question. We bought the plan tonight, and the voucher shows up on my KI app...but when I click on our platinum pass, it says "NONE" for meal plan.

Should I be concerned about this?

The database has probably not been merged yet.  I wouldn’t be concerned but make sure you can easily access your online receipt if you need to stop by guest services.

Yeah I printed it out just to be safe. It does show as a clickable option on the app, and it has the barcode to be scanned...it just says "None" as part of the meal plan on the pass itself. 

EDIT: Just fixed it myself by deleting the pass and rescanning it. I think that needed done anyway, because they were showing as 2020 KI gold passes, and we have platinum. 

Excited to see how long the line for Orion will get today, if it goes fast I’ll get to the park sooner.

I'm hearing that the line to get into the parking lot is already all the way out to the street.  An hour and a half before the lot opens.

Opening the lot at 10:30 was a really terrible idea.

 I appreciate the reference, but I'm still extremely concerned at how 10:30 won't result in people bunched up waiting for the turnstiles to open, if actual park access won't occur until 11.

I hope I'm wrong, sir!

Waiting in line right now

Slightly tempted to drive up to KI at 10:15 to see how long the car line is

I'm guessing not as bad now that they've opened the gate and lined them up at the booths.

They have not let anyone through the parking gate yet

Oh ok, so they opened the gate to soak up some traffic, gotcha. Still though, It might reach to the dropoff point by 1030

What they did was smart from an engineering standpoint. They created a system where they could hold more cars and create an organized flow into the toll lanes and parking lot.

Right, I just meant that they've opened it up to line people up at the tolls.

I cant imagine it will be to horrible when they start letting people in since no one should be paying for parking right?

Agreed. So far so good. My concern lies in what happens between 10:30-11...we shall see.

I will publicly apologize to @DonHelbig if I'm wrong, since he dropped Jack Torrance on me above

Yep! I'm a massive Stephen King fan so I always appreciate any reference I get.

I see. So I shouldn’t have Mist watching The Shining? Pun totally intended.

 

To the boots on the ground providing live updates, I really, really appreciate it. It is a tremendous help for our visit tomorrow.
