Star Wars Land

We were pretty excited to check out the new Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge land in Disneyland. I even did my hair in Rey's honor:

The awesome full-scale model of the Millennium Falcon did not disappoint. Mom even got tears in her eyes. 

Here we are inside the Millennium Falcon ride, Smuggler's Run. Kyle and I were the pilots, Tommy and Dad were gunners, and Stuart and Mom were engineers.

Mom wanted to buy this Kowakian monkey-lizard puppet that sits on your shoulder, but wasn't willing to foot the bill. 

We saw Boba Fett and Chewbacca walking around, but they were in a hurry and didn't stop for pictures. 

When you drank from this water fountain, this dianoga, like the one in the trash compactor, came up to peek at us. 

Here's an X-Wing fighter...

And the droid depot, where you can build your own droid (for $100, so we did not). 

R2D2!

Apparently this is what the Sarlac Pit looks like beneath the sand. Crazy!

Tauntaun and some other monsters mounted on the wall in Dok-Ondar's Den of Antiquities...

Look out, there's a wampa behind you!

Matching BB8 hats!

TIE Echelon outside the First Order recruitment center...

TK-421, why aren't you at your post? Oh wait, that's Dad. 

And Tommy! He's gone to the dark side!

This stormtrooper has Mickey ears just like mine...

The Millennium Falcon looked extra cool at night. 

And the blue milk was actually pretty good! 

Mom and Dad LOVED the Falcon, but wished the rest of Galaxy's Edge had been a world from one of the movies, not a brand new invention. They would have liked to have seen more stuff that they actually recognized, like the Falcon and all the stuff in the Den of Antiquities. 

But the Falcon was pretty awesome. 

Although all I cared about was the blue milk. 

May the force be with you!
