Lights On?

There is one question that I get asked a lot at work. No it is not "when is the parade?" Nor is it "what is this ride?" (believe me both of these questions do get asked) The question is "how do I get to ride with the lights on?" The simple answer is you don't. There are very VERY few opportunities for guests to get on the ride knowing that they are going through the mountain with the lights on. I was giving the opportunity to ride it with the lights on one early day during training (we're talking 6am early) because there was an educational group coming through to ride with the lights on and then again with the lights off. Let me tell you it is not as exciting as you may think. It doesn't feel as fast, all of the effects are off, and there is no music. All in all it is very boring with the lights on and not exciting at all. Though looking at the track system as a whole is pretty cool it is also a pain to walk (and rather dusty). Also people loose the funniest things on the ride. That is all.
