These churros sure look pretty cool with those lightsaber hilt holders, but they taste pretty average.

This wasn’t our favorite cocktail we’ve had in Disney World, but it might appeal to those who like sweeter drinks.

One of the most eye-catching snacks we’ve had so far is the Dark Side Chocolate Creation at Backlot Express. This is a snack for those who have always wanted to eat Darth Maul. Wait…is that anyone?

Here’s the Dark Side Chocolate Creation in Hollywood Studios – milk chocolate mousse dome with raspberry mousse topped with slivered almonds on a chocolate shortbread cookie! Available only today and tomorrow! #StarWarsDay pic.twitter.com/5Mu4w6pPGI

Star Wars Merchandise

Well, the first thing we noticed when we arrived at Disney’s Hollywood Studios this morning was that there were a LOT of folks looking to snag some Star Wars merchandise.

We had to scan into a virtual queue to be able to snag the merchandise at select Hollywood Studios locations and right at 9AM, there were already 849 PARTIES ahead of us.

Whew! It seems like there’s QUITE the demand for these new items!

A LOT of new Star Wars merchandise is set to be available today including apparel featuring the new Disney+ series “The Bad Batch” (also debuting today) and new Star Tours Wishables!

They’re v. cute.

While we waited our turn, we were able to pop into Celebrity 5& 10 to see the Star Wars Starbucks Been There Series featuring mugs inspired by Tatooine, Batuu, and Endor.

We weren’t able to spot the Endor Mug in Disney World just yet but it IS available online!

And did you know even MORE exclusive merchandise is coming to Disney World next month?

Don’t judge us, but we have our eyes on the Jar-Jar Binks Plush.

Star Wars Surprises

We headed into Walt Disney Presents this morning to check out a surprise display of the upcoming Star Wars Hotel — the Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser!

We’re pretty excited to learn more and more about this experience over the next year.
