• Thu, 17:16: Speedy airport checking--got the automatic TSA Pre and zipped through security in the crew line.
• Thu, 17:17: Also found the North security lines in ATL for the first time, I think. Now awaiting my first real Southwest boarding experience.
• Thu, 21:33: Made it thru MCO, got rental car, had Google maps navigate to Disney Beach Club via FL 528 and I4.
• Thu, 21:34: Despite car agents claim, could pay both tolls w cash. $2.25 total.
• Thu, 22:06: Headed to Magic Kingdom for Christmas party. Beach Club bus dropped us at farthest stop of the new bus loop-- that was a hike!
• Thu, 22:07: Now must get through Guest Services line to pick up new Annual Pass and party ticket.
• Thu, 23:09: Made it in on my party ticket which precludes getting double SotMK cards....oh well. Too late to get real food @ Plaza or Columbia Harbor.
• Thu, 23:11: Dinner is a burger with Sonny Eclipse at Cosmic Rays.
• Thu, 23:11: Off to check out the Jingle Cruise in Adventureland.
• Fri, 00:27: Great Jingle Cruise skipper, best I've had in a while. Maybe the Xmas jokes inspired her. Think I saw Len Testa one boat ahead.

• Fri, 00:29: Walked on to Pirates. Now in line for a pin--word in the Passholder pin sold out @ 7:30 last party. Artificial shortages...
• Fri, 02:27: Waited in line to be told at the last step that the Passholder pin was sold out--a Grumpy pin, too. Disney merchandising can be infuriating
• Fri, 02:29: Watched first parade in Frontierland. Big float broke down, eventually princes & princesses got down and walked, leaving Fairy Godmother.
• Fri, 02:48: Float was towed and pushed in the end so the other half of the parade could come through.
• Fri, 02:58: Watched castle projection show & fireworks fr middle of Main St. "Glow with Show" ear hats detract more than add. Nice Frozen sequence.
• Fri, 03:00: Taking cocoa break in Crystal Palace to give feet a rest. Cookies aren't worth the calories--undistinguished soft sugar cookie.
• Fri, 05:33: Got a pic w Mary Poppins, Bert, and penguins! Another w Donald, Daisy, and Scrooge McDuck. Lines too long for dwarfs,Peter & Wendy.
• Fri, 05:36: Headed out after that, with brief stop @ Firehouse: I struck up a conversation and got someone to go get me a second SotMK party card.
• Fri, 05:38: Had to stand on bus, feet are complaining. Pedometer says 19,186 steps for day.
