Together with having a huge obsession with all things Disney, we also have a healthy obsession with Star Wars (although I'm not sure Shannon's obsession with it can be called healthy...). Every summer Disney hosts weekends devoted to Star Wars. This year, Disney's Star Wars Weekends at Disney's Hollywood Studios goes from May 17 to June 9, 2013.

Tower of Terror
Since we all work for a living, we weren't able to attend on opening day (Friday), but we were there bright and early Saturday morning. We being me (Anna), Ashleigh, Shannon, my boyfriend (Matt), and Shannon's boyfriend (Neil). The day was devoted to wandering around the park, seeing all that they had this year, and of course riding some rides. The top three highlights for me were as follows:
- Hyperspace Hoopla - This was so entertaining. I was constantly laughing (and dancing) the entire time. I hadn't ever seen it in past years, but it was amazing this year and I totally recommend it. Get there early to get a good view. We had to watch it on a screen :(.
- Darth's Mall - The whole time everyone was saying how they wanted to go see Darth Mall and the whole time I thought I was going to see Darth Maul. Although I was confused and never actually saw the character, the mall was pretty cool (and not just because it was air conditioned... thank god!). There were a lot of photo opportunities and of course a lot of awesome merchandise to purchase. The only things we bought were name tags written in Aurebesh and a R2D2 bucket full of churros. ??????
- The Drinks - There were two themed drinks for the event. One called The Dark Side and other called The Force. I loved both and even though I'm more of a Rebel Alliance type girl, The Dark Side was a little better...
"The Force"
