Lines

Waiting in lines is a big part of the Disney World experience.

There are signs at most rides with the expected wait time. We decided a posted time of 30 minutes was a reasonable limit for a good ride and found that usually the time was shorter than posted. If the line was longer we got a fastpass (a great idea that lets you come back later and get in the front of the line). Some of the big rides had wait time of 110 minutes. Because we had free time waiting for our fastpass ride we discovered rides and attractions that the girls would have otherwise skipped. One of their favorites turned out to be the Carrousel of Progress, an original Disney attraction that I first enjoyed in California 50 years ago.

What is the longest you have ever waited in line? Was it worth the wait?

What wonderful things have you discovered while you were waiting for something else?
