A couple of weeks ago, we gave you
some tips on the Cars Land Rope Drop, where the early morning crowd is escorted in by none other than Lightning McQueen and Mater. Today, we're showing the rest of that little journey, with a near-the-front view of the early morning walk through the Radiator Springs Racers queue. The friendly Cast Member in the lead prevents stampeding.
If you've ever entered a Disney park at rope drop, I'm sure you know the incredibly fun feeling that hits at this exact moment: You're about to take the first ride of your vacation!
All three queues (Standby, FastPass and Single Rider) pass underneath the race course's Rusty Ridge Bridge (build by the Auto Corps of Engineers).
Entering the ghost town remains of Stanley's Oasis, from the Pixar short,
Time Travel Mater.
The Single Rider and FastPass Queues on the left take a shortcut to the Station. The Standby route's quite a bit longer...
Sorry about the switchback blur, but you know how it is when you're quick-walking through a twisty queue with a couple of thousand people right behind you...
Through the Oil Bottle House.
Getting closer to the station, located inside the Comfy Cavern Motor Court.
A quick peek to the right toward the seat belt checkpoint.
Looking to the left at where we've been...
Past the final switchbacks.
Stepping up to the loading area.
Cars returning to the station, bearing some lucky folks who got to ride before the Rope Drop. The Wheelchair Boarding Platform is to the left, and features its own ride photo monitors (hidden in this shot by that back pillar).
Ready for the road!
I love these posts! They're getting me ready for my trip. Thanks for pointing out where the wheelchair loading area is. :)
