Waiting our turn to enter so we could get a boarding group for Rise
of the Resistance -- group 112: dicey
Inside the gates just in time
Headed up Main Street to the Hub
Star Wars Galaxy's Edge is INCREDIBLE!
Millennium Falcon with the stone towers of Batuu
The waiting lines are so well designed and interesting, the
wait seems like nothing at all
The theming right down to the smallest detail is unbelievable
The Market
Back to Frontierland and Big Thunder
Splash Mountain with the boys
Me? Cool as a cucumber
The good old Jungle Cruise
Back to Star Wars for lunch
Lunch at Ronto Roasters on the left
Inside the Roasters
Ronto Wrap was tasty
Ronto Wrap was tasty
That's me trying to act nonchalant as we passed Kylo Ren
and the Storm Troopers
and the Storm Troopers
We waited a long time for this old classic dark ride
Still a thrill: best of the original dark rides IMO
Still a thrill: best of the original dark rides IMO
TWA's Rocket to the Moon is a memory from 1955
Dinner at the Blue Bayou
Waiting to be seated
At the Blue Bayou
Where it's always night
Good food before Kris took her Lyft to LAX for her flight
to AZ for Blake Boynton's funeral
When I returned to the park, they had called our boarding group, so
I rushed to meet the kids at Rise of the Resistance: Rey and BB-8
getting us squared away
The kiddos moving through the Rise of the Resistance
Our transport was commandeered by the Empire
The immense scale of this "ride" is overwhelming
The AT-ATs are at least two stories tall
The place is magical at night
The boys assembling their light sabers in a ceremony: every single
person in this land is always in character
This new land makes everything else in Disneyland feel under-designed
That's a wrap
This was a fun, but exhausting day. It's not 1955 anymore, and I can feel my age. There will be more, but this is all for now.
OXO
