1) Eat copious amounts of the glazed almonds from the Nut and Ice Cream Cart on Hollywood Boulevard
2) Beware squirrels and do not, I repeat do not, feed glazed almonds to them. Safeguard your nuts! They are aggressive.
3) Say hi to Cousin George and the rest of the family at 50’s Prime Time Cafe while enjoying your meal. Eat all your vegetables!

Thx!! Those almonds sound delish! Is Prime Time one of your fave restaurants? If so, what’s your fave food there to order?
It’s all good there. The fried chicken, chicken pot pie, and pot roast are some of my favorites. The staff are real characters and will tease your party.

If you don't mind getting up early, be there for rope drop. You can either do Rock 'n Roller Coaster & Tower of Terror or hit Toy Story Land with no to little wait and save your Fast Passes for other stuff.
Smugglers Run is good, but not worth a 3 hour wait. Don't go to Galaxy's Edge first thing in the morning. The crowds will thin out. If you wait till the evening, you can get on in less than an hour's wait.
If you planning on being there at rope drop and closing time (both are fun and doable on the same day), plan to go back and rest for an hour or so in the middle of the day. This will also help with avoiding the mid-day crowd spike.
Hollywood & Vine is a good character dining buffet if you have younger kids. Sci-Fi Dine In Theater is fun. Mama Melrose's is some good Italian food.
Fantasmic is a great show. You should see it at least once in your lifetime. You can get premium seating with a dining package.
Have fun!

Voyage of the Little Mermaid is really cute. No big theatrics, just a perfect neat little show.
Star Tours has a whole bunch of random videos. Do it more than once if you enjoyed it or love Star Wars.
50s Prime Time and the Sci-Fi are still among the finest and funnest themed restaurants on property.

I’ve heard
Ive heard such great things about prime time in this thread! I went ahead and made reservations for dinner there. Weren’t but two slots left on our travel date. Got lucky! Thanks for the tips!
Don't spend $200 on a lightsaber. Don't get a FP for Muppets. Do try the creamsicle (It's like a Citrus Swirl with Vodka).

(Haven't yet ridden Rise of the Resistance, but have done everything else):
1. Tower of Terror is my favorite and second favorite experience in all of WDW. Favorite is as night, second favorite is during the day. And speaking of day/night, Toy Story Land and Galaxy's Edge really come alive once the sun goes down (or before it comes up).
2. The Frozen Sing-a-Long is a lot of fun - some actual funny moments for parents and the kids love it.
3. If you are a Star Wars fan, you should absolutely spend the $200 for a custom lightsaber at Savi's. It is an amazing experience.

Ohhhhh that looks so good! Where do they sell that? And thanks for other advice on muppets and light sabers.

1 . The Citizens of Hollywood show up on Hollywood Blvd & Sunset Blvd at different times during the day, ( from around 9:15 ish - 3 pm ) and provide some great guest interactive skits. Well worth catching their hilarious performances.
2. Not a fan of Starbucks coffee? Theres a Joffreys coffee stand outside of the ToT gift shop area. Less lines for their pastries sold from the stand too
3. Outside of the Indiana Jones stunt stadium there are several scenes set up with german vehicles, guns, and assorted items from the movie.
