I do like how this tunnel turned out. PSA: for the next 24 hours (or so) the XBox digital store has Planet Coaster on sale for $20.99. No, I don’t work for Frontier. Or Microsoft. 😃

Wait according to MC, Disney lowered some prices?

Galaxy’s Edge Price Reductions!​

In a shocking twist, the price to build a lightsaber or a droid has recently been reduced. Back in October, the price to build a lightsaber in Savi’s Workshop went up from $219.99 to $249.00. That price has now come back down to its original price of $219.99.


The same thing happened at the Droid Depot, where the price went up from $99.99 to $119.99. The price to build your custom droid has now come back down to the original price of $99.99.

I've long been underwhelmed by the Orb of Cagliostro in the Sanctum. I always expected it to look more like one of these kinds of infinity art installations.

I don’t really know where else to ask this, but I am looking for disneyland tickets and found a very good deal on getawaytoday.com. Does anyone know if that website’s legit?

Yes, they’re legit. In effect they’re an online travel agency (like Undercover Tourist, which I used to purchase tickets right when Disneyland first reopened).

Was going to suggest to also look at Undercover Tourist and compare prices. I think one has cheaper single day tickets while the other has cheaper multi-day, but don't quote me on that.

It seems like this is one effect that just didn't come together. I've noticed that at night it does sort of have that infinite effect, but during the day the glare completely ruins it.

I know this is an old post but I'm just now catching up and was curious if there were any specific things in Milan you wanted to do / see? I'm a huge fashion lover and my favorite designer Rick Owens has a flagship store there that looks incredible. I didn't make it to Milan when I visited Italy but next time I go I am definitely gonna make a stop there and just enjoy all the designer stores I've never been able to visit in person.
Hey! Nope, nothing specific I wanted to see. I’m thinking of taking a train that goes to Como and up to Switzerland. I’ve also got a pal out there that I’m planning to visit. Since I’m only going to be there for two days, I’m not stressing about finding things to do. I’m also considering taking a pasta and tiramisu-making class on the day I leave, but I’m still not sure.

That cooking class sounds like so much fun! Pasta from scratch is my favorite thing to make, but I've never made Tiramisu before. Switzerland sounds like it will be awesome as well, I hope you have fun on that trip later on!

[title of show] being the literal title of the show threw me for a loop at first. 😂 But is this really Hercules? The call for the Muses being 3 instead of 5 plus the English accent for Megara is making me nervous.

I was thinking about SW:GE a little today… It’s amazing how much I don’t care about it being in Disneyland anymore. I’ll always miss Big Thunder Ranch, but I’ve gotten used to GE’s presence in the park.
I’m suddenly realizing I have yet to see Galaxy’s Edge at DL; my last visit was just before it opened, but I did ride the train at night to experience the wonder of its new, first-ever left turn. I visited Galaxy’s Edge at WDW. I thought Smuggler’s was boring, Rise was fun and the land was mostly a waste of space. Despite being packed with guests, it felt lifeless and uninvolving. If and when I return to DL, I’ll probably just ignore GE completely.

I have never ridden Smuggler’s Run and I’ve actually only visited GE once. I wouldn’t call myself a fan of it, but I don’t hate it anymore either. It’s definitely better than Avenger’s Campus, which is a disaster, in my opinion.

I only visited once, but GE doesn’t feel lifeless here. Maybe that’s due to the different characters walking around here? I don’t know.
