Garsh, folks — Magic Kingdom is the late-night playground today, Saturday, October 17, stayin' open till 11 PM. The seven-day trend says it's busy but bearable, so I'd rope drop at 8 with the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train walk-on before the crowds wake up, then hit Peter Pan's Flight. Heads-up: the railroad is closed today with its Main Street and Fantasyland stations, so save those feet. If you're hungry, Be Our Guest is my pick — the prix-fixe meal ends with a dessert trio, and the add-on The Grey Stuff cupcake is worth tryin' at least once, if you'll believe the song! One more thing: next week's party nights — October 22, 23, and 25 — close the park to day guests at 6 PM, so plan accordingly.
