Think if the posted wait time was beyond 45 minutes I’d have to skip it. Hopefully, by the final park day, we’ll have enjoyed that attraction several times by then!

Fast pass: HS street troupe
Standby: Canada: Far and Wide (truly little if any reason not to have this back by now)
Skip: Voyage of the Little Mermaid (always a nice, air conditioned break, but they chop out too much of the story to fit the time constraints. Should forget about trying to tell the story and just reformat the show simply highlighting the music from the movie)
Favorite World Showcase pavilions ranked by dining option(s):
Mexico
Canada
