    Well, it's a self-fulfilling prophecy

    I was under the impression you’d get different songs like how Guardians is, or each train has its own song, kind of how it was when it was still Aerosmith

    How did they get this done so fast. This needs to be studied. Makes me think Indy should open well before Encanto at Tropical Americas if they want to do tha.

    No structural or track changes were made, it's pretty much just the decorations. Plus they closed the pre-show earlier than the ride, which probably took the longest to redo with new animatronics

    Love all the Muppets news. Love Rollercoaster is such an obvious choice, I can already hear the Electric Mayhem version.

    Also not sure what the issue is with the Galaxy’s Edge costumes…I think they look fine and love that they’re using the Leia comic design. The response has kind of reinforced to me why they went with the armored characters instead of face characters for so long. The armor is easier to mimic what we know, Vi was new and didn’t have a frame of reference, and Rey has a much more specific look that’s easier to buy into with the right hair and outfit. Luke, Han, and Leia are iconic figures we’ve seen a thousand times so it’s a harder sell to suspend disbelief.

    I'm disappointed they're supposedly getting rid of Vi. She was a fun character that would just be roaming the park and had great interactions with the kids. I don't see too many instances where these new (old?) will just be wandering and leading kids around in an interactive way with the other characters in the park

    Vi's appearance ends April 29th, unfortunately. We'll be back on Friday for the weekend and I plan on going over to get a photo with her since I'd never sought out for that, instead just interacting.

    The two parks are right next to each other like Disneyland, CA and the only stuff really worth doing at Adventure Park is the new areas that just opened and the Magic Mickey show, imo, so definitely won’t take you a full day. Disneyland Paris proper is also incredible with Phantom Manor and the best Big Thunder.

    Not interested enough in Pan to wait an hour without a fast pass so we’re at the 2nd park in line for Tower of Terror now

    this place is gorgeous

    Did you not go on PoTC there? It's the best not in Japan.

    Next week is supposed to be the lowest crowds until school kids go back in late August so we are going to try Epic Universe for the first time. The express pass was more than double the cost of the actual ticket.
