    Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge Upcharge or Add On Events Thread

    That was my thought originally. We haven’t been to wdw for 5 years. The tour was a way we could knock out all the thrill rides in one day. Then Friday just chill and catch up with what we to enjoy. This may be the last trip we take to WDW. Let us know how many on your team.

    I need a baby sling but know nothing about them

    My thoughts and experience exactly. I see people with them seemingly comfortable...just not my style I guess. Thats why I say try it yourself and decide. Find one as a hand-me-down or borrow for the day.

    I was the youngest of seven and raised in a very prejudiced home (80's and 90's). A big part of the prejudice was fueled by ignorance and a big dose of Fundamentalism. I was taught to not trust anyone of another race, religion, culture, etc. After college I worked internationally and it did...
