This year we were able to visit Hollywood Studios during their annual Star Wars week. Luke and the girls were excited to see the characters from the movies. The kids dressed up as Luke Leia and Padme Amidala for Halloween but it was way too hot to dress up for this event. We thought a lot of people would be dressed up but we only saw a handful. They should really do it during the winter. I'm sure some people would go crazy dressing up. The coolest part of the day was the Motorcade with marching storm troopers, Jedi Mickey, Princess Leia Minnie and various Star Wars characters.
The guy in the black shirt and jean shorts was the real Darth Mal actor. The guy in the wheelchair is the real Chewbacca actor.
This was at the Jedi training center. The kids can train to be a Jedi then practice their skills with Darth Vader. Luke and Savannah have finally built up the courage to try it out next time.
Chewbacca waving to the kids.
We waited in line to see R2D2 and C3PO but when we were about 4 people away they switched characters on us and Luke and Leia came out. Kind of a disappointment but at least the girls enjoyed visiting with Leia.
C3Po did come and say hello to us before he went for a break so that was cool.
They had a ton of fun Star wars items for sale. If we lived somewhere cold I think Luke might have wanted this hat.
