Good morning from the Magic Kingdom! This is truly my second home. There’s just something about walking around the hub first thing in the morning that just fills me with so much happiness. I think we should make our way towards Tomorrowland and––

Squirrel! Oh, sorry… got distracted.

We miss you, Astro Orbiter. Get well soon.

New USB charging stations have been added to the Tomorrowland Light & Power Co. The gift shop at the exit of Space Mountain has added this handy feature to the desks at the very back corner of the gift shop. They are tucked away, but it’s a nice option for guests not riding that might be hanging out in the air conditioning at the exit of the ride.

Mickey’s Star Traders is getting remodeled, and a small portion of the store has been closed off for now. There is a trash can placed in front of the entrance facing Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies. This was a missed opportunity to bring PUSH back to tell guests the other side of the store is open.

The windows have been boarded up on the PeopleMover, so we can’t see inside the store.

Another day, another struggle to enjoy Sleepy Hollow Refreshments. With the Liberty Square Market seating area under refurbishment, there is even less seating in the area.

Wait times are all pretty high around the park.

We were spoiled, but now the crowds have all started to come back. It was nice while it lasted.

These Toy Story 4 Charmed in the Park charms are $5.99 each and super cute. Gotta have them!

There are so many different charms to choose from. These are some of my favorites, even if Moana looks like a weird sticker.

A cast member jokingly said, “If you can see pavement, it’s not crowded” and I feel that.

There’s a wandering cotton candy stand! This cast member was roaming the hub with some of the Halloween cotton candy for sale.

A little busier, but I can still see pavement.

I can never resist a snack.

That’s all for today. Thanks for joining us around the Magic Kingdom on this busy day!
