We heard from a cast member to wait until mid-reservation to get it. The wait time did drop to 15 minutes about 2 hours in, but we almost missed our Cantina reservation! We may have been able to get 2 rides in if we went sooner, but who knows? I can't wait to go back!! Have a great time!!

Flying the “Fastest Hunk of Junk in the Galaxy” was an experience I feel I’ve waited a lifetime for. I was right pilot (I got to jump to hyperspace), my Aunt was left, my Mom and second cousin were the gunners and other cousin the engineer. It does not matter if you have no idea what you are...

The blue milk tasted like pineapple and watermelon and was superior imo to the green milk which was more aromatic (perfume-y tasting), with citrus notes which included grapefruit. It gave it an ever so slightly bitter taste - again, imo. Chatting with other folks in the crowd, the blue milk...

There is a lingo that the cast members use - Bright Suns (good day), Rising Moon (good evening), To the Spire (have a good day?) - I was into it. The land is highly, highly detailed in the day and night. Better at night, similar to Cars Land, but amazing either way.

The remainder of the report will be bullet points so this goes out today. Due to the four hour window, we had to decide our priorities. As I was not going to get a lightsaber this trip (waiting until September with my kids at WDW), we made the priorities Oga’s Cantina, Millennium Falcon and...

Galaxy's Edge Getting In. For the love of all that is good in the universe, bring a government issued ID. It is mentioned over and over that we would need this for our entry. Touring Plans has a good outline of what was needed. In practice, this meant the following: All of us...

Bright Suns Earth Dwellers! I had the pleasure of visiting Batuu last week and it surpassed my expectations. I thought I would share a relatively brief report of our experience, though there are many, many blog postings that do a more thorough presentation with better photos. This is one...

Great! Thank you all for your replies. I put an alert on Touring Plans and feel a bit better in general about getting a reservation. I will just keep trying and roll with it if it doesn't happen. Back up plan is counter service, an evening swim and watching MK fireworks from across the lake...

Hello! Forgive me if this is not the right place to ask as I am new. I am looking for advice (and reassurance?) in obtaining an ADR for Storybook Dining at Artist Point. I was unable to get a reservation at the 180 day mark; I waited later in the day rather than first thing in the morning...

So, funny story. I booked a Disneyland trip with my Mom and Aunt and a WDW trip with my Mom, kids and nieces. Disneyland trip 3-6 June, WDW trip 3-10 September. September to avoid crowds....Bwahahahaha. I am hoping that the majority of folks will wait for the entire land to open and that...

Concerns: 1. Afternoons in the Park I have always been a rope-drop girl. We usually arrive at the park at least 45 minutes before opening. We have our Disneyland/California Adventure system down so that we can do every ride we want before 11 am and use fast passes for the afternoon. We...

Epcot Day continued.... Evening – 7:30 ADR at Citricos to meet friends for dinner July 17 - Morning conference (ends at 10am this day) - Pool time? - Bus to DHS - Afternoon - Disney Hollywood Studios - Fast Passes ToT, Star Tours, RnR Dessert Party for Star Wars!!! I’m beyond...

How the Magic Came to Be I see my Mom at least 2 times per year. She visits NZ once a year and I meet her somewhere in the world where she has never been. It gives her an opportunity to travel, which she did not really do until after she was 65 (and I’m not complaining). However, I realized...

Hello from the Southern Hemisphere and the sandy shores of Eastern New Zealand where I have booked my first trip to Disney World! We leave in 12 days :jawdrop:. It will also be the first Disney World trip for my Mom, who will be joining me on this adventure. INTRODUCTIONS: Me (on our most...
