After visiting Disney's Hollywood Studios three days ago with Samantha, this time it was my turn to visit with Tara, Drew, and Jayden. Our first stop in the park was at the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Starring Aerosmith for a quick spin in one of their limousines.

Once we took our speedy limo ride, we made the trek across the park to take Tara into Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. We wandered through the various areas of the land, checking things out. Aside from taking in the sights, we also gave both the blue and green milk a try from the Milk Stand. We weren't impressed with either, but Tara preferred the green while Drew opted for the blue. Jay on the other hand wasn't impressed with either. Nor was I.

While we were on Batuu, we also rode Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, where Drew and I handed over our pilots duties to Tara and Jay as we had both experienced that role before.

After our tour of the Black Spire Outpost in Galaxy's Edge we made the walk into Toy Story Land for a ride on the Slinky Dog Dash. We also decided that we would take a spin on the Toy Story Mania! ride, where we shot our way to a lot of fun.

We made another walk through Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge to check out the sights at night, before deciding to call it a night.

We got lucky on our way to the car, getting on what we called the "Party Tram", as the guy at the back was very interactive: Tram Guy "Can I get an Oh Yeah!?" Tram Audience "Oh Yeah!" A very enjoyable ride...

We also got to see an interesting sight in the parking lot when we were leaving. There was a car in the parking lot near ours that was decorated like a NASA ship, with a dedication on the side: "Space Shuttle 1 is a tribute to Frances Carr Scurlock. Founder of the first inflatable rental". A quick Google search resulted in some pretty interesting tidbits... Here is a New York Post headline: Mayoral candidate, bouncy house scion accused of masturbating on Uber ride.

What a way to end our day!
