       Black Friday in the Park, AKA Double Coverage, Double the Fun

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Last night, I went over to Holiday in the Park. This was mainly
       to ride Wonder Woman, which I missed out on back in July, as
       well as Frost and get a general look of the environment. There
       were not checking parking which was odd as you could get day
       tickets online so I couldn't have crashed a pass holder event.
       I completely forgot Josh was going to SFNE, so check out the
       Facebook Page for more fun from the night.
       Speaking of Wonder Woman, I went over there first. They were not
       using the switch backs or the "on deck" spots, so the line was
       just outside the entrance. I could see them not using it as
       Wonder Woman gives a strong gust as it goes over the cattle
       pen-which I feel was the worst part. You have too much going
       beyond horizontal (?) to care if you are prepared.
       Next stop was dinner. This was the first time I had been inside
       Granny's and it was so Packed my dad and I had to share a table
       with a group of siblings. Since that took us past 6, I ended up
       catching the tail end of Holiday Harmonics.
       Ride 2 was Justice League. It was probably around 2 loops of the
       pre-show (1.5 once inside). There was also a spill in the queue
       that messed things up. This is the first time I ridden a
       shooting dark ride a second time (as I have done Test Track and
       It's a Small World on both of my visits to Disney in Aug. 2013
       and Dec. 2014). My score was 77,300.
       Since the show and Justice League took most of the time for my
       dinner to digest, next stop was Batman. I got row 6 to myself
       (my dad got the walk of shame, even w/o his jacket).
       Since there was still time better not wasted waiting to get into
       Frost, I decided to get more ambient footage, Swashbucker looks
       good at night. Got some fun photos in the light tunnel and at
       the entrance to Snowman City. I skipped Joker and Superman
       thinking they'd be torture when it feels like 30 degrees.
       Superman was actually stuck between the brakes and station as I
       was leaving.
       Anyways, It was already busy outside the Showcase theater 30mins
       before showtime, with Diamond/Diamond Elite going in about
       quarter til.
       Frost is a magic and acrobatics show, with dance numbers as
       transition. I don't know if that is similar or different to what
       the SFNE show was, but it was fine. The Showcase Theater could
       use a renovation.
       I didn't seem to find any Holiday in the Park merch on the
       Coaster Candy side of the Main Street, but since there is the
       unused parking, just might go back on a (hopefully warmer) day
       before the year is out.
