And on St. Patrick’s Day, there was a one-day-only holiday photo prop on Sunset Boulevard! We spotted a PhotoPass photographer with the prop.
St. Patrick’s Day in Disney World
It’s not a bad idea to watch out for special, limited-time photo props on holidays and special occasions in Disney World!

And Tower of Terror has had long wait times lately, and we found out from a Cast Member that two of the elevators are closed, which means the ride is operating at half of its usual capacity.

We’ve seen the wait times exceed 100 minutes, even up to 150 minutes! The Cast Member told us it could take months before the ride returns to operating at full capacity, so you might want to plan for a LONG line.
