Goodnight Star Wars

This is the final batch of pictures from the Galaxy's Edge! These are from the night time, the locals on planet Batuu say "rising moons!" to greet you at night. 

This droid is in the line for the older Star Tours ride, which is outside of the Galaxy's Edge part. He was complaining about his job making funny comments. Let's all step back a moment and think how fun it is that the "robots" in Star Wars have opinions and emotions.

Stellar Foods

Exploring the Black Spire Outpost on planet Batuu also includes exploring the local foods. So this group of pictures is all about that. It may look weird and have funny names, but honestly everything we ate there was amazing.

The small lunch restaurant is cooking some kind of meat under this um, podracing engine? It's swaying back and forth slightly and looks really cool. I mean hot. I guess this is safe... Is there a space OSHA?

Hollywood Break

Let's take a break from the Star Wars photos. We were in Disney's Hollywood Studios and happy to spend most of our time on the planet Batuu, but we did some other stuff while we were there, too.

This picture was taken in the early morning but I didn't think it was appropriate to post with the Star Wars pictures. Usually when you get this view, you have a whole day of fun awaiting you!

Stuff Wars

What kinds of treasures can you take home from the Galaxy's Edge? The Black Spire Outpost on Batuu has lots of goodies. Be sure to get them while you are there, because you'll not find them in any other Disney park's stores. Not even in the Disney Springs big store. Had we known, I might have made sure to pick up some extra fridge magnets for gifting souvenirs.

This picture we got in the Launch Bay section outside of Batuu, over where the original Star Tours ride is. I guess an actor-signed photo is not the type of thing a Star Wars character could get, so it's not in the Galaxy's Edge.

Bright Suns!

There's a lot more pictures from the Star Wars Galaxy's Edge. I suppose I should start off with something like "spoiler alert"? Does this count as a sort-of movie or something? There's not much of a story except the one you make up yourself with your own personal vacation activities. The locals say "bright suns!" to greet you during the day.

There's a big 'ole X-Wing Fighter over there! It's a little strange that this is still only a picture. You really need to be here yourself to get the big "WOW!" out of it.

Scrap Metal Lightsaber!

A high"light" of the vacation! It's a very expensive thing to do, but my friend was not going away from the Star Wars experience without his own unique laser sword. Also known as a Lightsaber.

As part of the illusion to make this feel like you are "really" in Star Wars, lightsabers are relics of the Jedi Order and as such you cannot openly sell them without the First Order shutting you down. So the clever merchants are offering.... scrap metal... wink, wink... at Savi's Workshop.

Happy Beeps!

One of the coolest things about Star Wars is the droids. While visiting the Galaxy's Edge, we were surely going to get the chance to build one ourselves!

Here's the entrance to the Droid Depot. You can try to walk in and build a droid, but we were good enough to make reservations months ago to be sure to get the chance. Think "Build-a-Bear" but the Star Wars droid version of that.
