Does anyone else remember how AWESOME Star Tours was when it first opened? I remember as a kid riding it over and over and over again. I came off the ride with big excited eyes and just couldn’t wait to do it again! As the years went on, that excitement diminished quickly. It got to a point where I didn’t care if I rode it again. It was one of my last priorities while at the park.
Well, not anymore!
The new Star Tours opened today, but I was one of the lucky fans who got to ride a couple weeks ago before it opened to the public. I showed up to Disneyland before the park opened (which was a thrill all in itself to see the place completely empty!) and waited with 999 other people for the revelation that was Star Tours: The Adventures Continue.
It was really similar to the old ride. But way awesomer. Yeah, I said it – AWESOMER. Its in 3-D this time around, but what I didn’t know at the time is that there are like 50 different ride combinations, so each trip will be a little different. That was so smart of them to keep the ride fresh and keep fans coming back for more.
I know I’ll be back to see where Star Tours takes me next!
Seriously how do you always get to do the all the cool things!
Alright. It’s officially on my list come September.
