After breakfast and a brief hop to holllywood studios, mom is beat and is now back at the hotel resting. But she rode star tours so I’m all sorts of proud of her.
I’m on the bus to DS to try out the STAR WARS: secrets if the empire.
Is it weird I’m nervous? Oh and rain is rolling in here soon, so I am very glad mom will sleep through it. So far, we’ve gotten fairly lucky with the rain. I hope it holds.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention we finished our coffees by the castle after breakfast where no one was the whole time. Perfection.

Ok, real quick thoughts on the void: very very cool. There’s slight environmental changes when you’re in hot zones, as welll as the smell of something burning. NPC Animations are excellent, human ones a little shaky, but that’s where we are with the tech. That said, no real complaints with them, very passable.
One issue was the ground would “vibrate” at certain points where heights are involved. A Little nerve racking. And if heights are a problem for you… AVOID this. THeres more than a few areas with significant heights.
The main “crux” (if you can call it that)with the thing is a “simon” puzzle, which is annoying cause I’d rather shoot. But the shooting afterward and the R2 unit being there both in vr and reality at the end make up for it.
Overall I’d definitely do it again.

I did the Void in July and was very nervous! It did take what seemed like a long time to get all of the gear on. It was really cool!

Thinking On it. It’s probably that puzzle that slows everything up. There we’re like 5 stages.

Great info on the Void. Thanks - we’re taking my stepson in October. How long did it take from you to get from the park to the Void?
As others have said, your mom looks much better. I’m glad your both doing well.

My ride was stupid long. Bus driver went to several stops before ending up at DS. A NORMAL transit should be about 10-15 minutes, then 10 minutes of walking because the thing is at the edge of DS

Thanks. I think I’m allowing an hour, so that should be fine.
Hope you guys continue to have a great time.

Loving all of the pics! Your mom does look great and definitely frame that one of the two of you with the hugest grins entering MK. I also love that you had coffee in front of the castle. The pic of your mom in that one says it all too!

No, in fact uhhh didn’t buy a ticket period. Walked in, “checked in” and went in. That was all there was to it.

We also walked right in without buying a ticket in advance. This was on an evening in late July.
