Hi guys I'm back home. Decided to come back early since we have another full day tomorrow.
Uploading pics and video of the Chewie Run soon.
I have not read thru the 25 pages I missed today but again thanks to
@Itinkso and
@MunchkinandSugarBear for all of your help with the posts I only went thru 2 phone batteries doing it this way
Just general impressions:
It's been the most crowded opening day so far in my experience
The lines for characters were generally well organized, I compared
MDE times with the actual experience and they were on point as far as I could tell. Very happy they added the SWW characters to it
Luke roaming in the morning, early afternoon took us by surprised, we managed to meet him with no wait. I hope he keeps doing this, we heard Leia was out roaming as well but never saw her. We did meet her at the designated spot in the evening
The Jedi Council line is nice, shady and has huge fans running. Anakin was a great interaction, he was very chatty which made the line go very slowly. He asked Stephanie who she was if she was a Bounty Hunter. Stephanie said she was a Rebel. And he said cool glad to have you on our side. (Since Anakin Episode III doesn't know Sabine)
Ahsoka was also great and Leia called Stephanie by her name (Hi Sabine)
Chewie coming out with the Ewoks from the morning is awesome, seriously do this meet as your first thing the line got an hour long in the first 15 minutes of park opening.
The celeb autograph area was nice and organized, welcome change with the A/C still feel that it kinda sucks that just regular guests won't be able to see the celebrities from outside the tents like they used to.
Tiya Sircar was very sweet, loved Stephanie's costume
Rebel Lounge was a welcomed place to relax. I approached it as a cool, sw themed area to recharge. We were the first ones inside and all the CM cheered for us and asked from what galaxy we were. Kinda bummed that we missed Sabine and Ezra but we have reservations for each weekend so I'm sure we'll meet them. The service was super fast (at that time) the food and drinks were good. I would recommend it but don't expect to fill your bellies or meet characters, just a place to unwind for a bit
It was SUPER FUN to meet so many of you, there's some cool group pictures from the early morning Chewie run DISers, special thanks to
@Ninja Mom you have no idea how much I appreciated your thank you card and gift.
Ready to sleep and recharge fr tomorrow. We are doing the
DDP. I heard things here and there about it but will have a review tomorrow night.
Will post video and photos soon
