Does anyone know what is available outside without going indoors? We are being pretty careful with not going in anywhere but would love to come do the egg hunt outdoors. it looks like we can get the map at pin traders? Are there any other food or merchandise kiosks open outdoors? Thanks for any help you can offer!

My friend who went yesterday said all eggs are visible from outside - on buildings or in window displays.

There are definitely some kiosks - California churros, Kayla’s macrons, etc. Additionally, places like Salt and Straw and Ralph Brennan’s to-go have QR codes so you can order from outside (grab and go). Starbucks has mobile ordering. There are some (small) outdoor shopping options, too, like the pin trading booth.

Places like Wonderground Gallery, which is small with big doors always open, are pretty “open” in terms of airflow and have only a few people admitted at a time. (It was literally six last time we were there, although I think capacity has increased.) You may find when you see it that a few places like that meet your comfort level even when traditional large, indoor stores do not. (That was our experience the first time we went and wanted to be very cautious.) But even if you stayed entirely outdoors, there would be things to eat, buy, and see. Have fun!

Reservations for Star Wars Trading Post are up. They only let me pick one person.

I'm going to DTD next week. Do they still require a reservation for Star Wars Trading Post? If so, how do I make one?

It is open for everyone now. I think the wait times have decreased for it since it opened. But if there is a waitlist, you can join virtually and return when it tells you to.

Is parking still $10 at Simba's lot? Is that the price to park there all day?

Yes and yes.

Pro tip that’s also the price at the Anaheim hotel. Not sure if the Simba security line is still a nightmare, but the harbor side is great. We parked at simba once and learned our lesson.
