To be honest, I didn’t think the food at @Disneyland was going to be any good, but whatever I had was actually quite decent, and reasonable in price for Disney. swipe At #starwarsgalaxysedge: 1. This is the Meilooran Juice from #RontosRoasters - it was a bit too sweet for me, but still refreshing in the heat. Ingredients: pineapple, lemonade with blueberry, white cranberry juice, lemon juice, desert pear. $5.49 2. Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo, I ordered the “Ithorian Garden Loaf: Plant-based "Meatloaf", Roasted Vegetable Potato Mash, Seasonal Vegetables, Mushroom Sauce”, $14.99. This was actually tasty, and both gluten and dairy free. Nice to see those types of options at Disneyland. It’s an order at the cashier type or restaurant still, but the dishes are plated a lot nicer! 3. Blue milk from the “Milk Stand”, I actually liked the citrusy taste, but at $7.99, it’s a little steep for a small sized, rice and coconut milk smoothie! 4. From the “Hungry Bear”, it’s your standard fast food, the cast member recommended the fried fish sandwich and I’m glad I did. It took a while longer to come out, but meant it was hot and fresh, as were the fries! $10.99 5. From the #candypalace Minnie Mouse Rice Crispy treat - too sweet! 6. Also from the Candy Palace - Minnie Mouse Chocolate Cake Pop- the most decadent chocolate I’ve ever had, really good! . . . #galaxysedge #disneygram #instadisney #instadisneyland #happiestplaceonearth #disneyinfluencer #disneyig #winningmeover #hoggerincali #disneylandfood #disneyfood #disneylandfoodie
May the force be with you now that the new #starwarsgalaxysedge is open (without needing a reservation or boarding pass!). Batuu is awesome, even down to tiniest details like the payment machine and the cast members’ costumes — swipe for more photos Here are some TIPS (this is not sponsored): ✨You still have to make a reservation for #OgasCantina and #SavisWorkshop and these are released daily at 7am - the line is massive regardless of whether you’ve made a reservation or not ✨ Get the @disneyland app for updates as well as for ride wait times - I really liked using the app but it drained my battery much faster ✨with the app you can do “mobile food orders” which is also helpful to save time ✨ I got the “Max Pass” upgrade ( $15 per park) which also gives you the “Fast Pass” advantage (allows you to reserve a 1-hr time slot for a specific ride in advance and not wait as long in line). This is only available on a few rides and sadly NOT on Millennium Falcon: Smuggler’s Run!). I found it was worthwhile though and never had to wait too long for a ride. ✨ Max Pass gives you ALL of the photos taken by the photographers at the parks. These photos are immediately uploaded onto a gallery on the app. I personally didn’t like any of mine and preferred taking my own photos or asking someone to take my photo. However, without the Max Pass, each photo is $15 if you do end up liking one they take. ✨There are no fast passes available for Millennium Falcon: #smugglersrun but there is a single riders line, and standby wait times decrease significantly (from 120 min at 12pm to 35 min after 5pm) ✨Bring a portable charger for your phone, as there are NO charging stations or outlets to plug your phones in. I had to buy a $30 portable charger). I did spy two outlets at #rontosroasters and saw one person charging his phone there 🤣 ✨ I used the “single rider” option on the rides where it was available and found it allowed me to go on more rides ✨#Chewbacca can be seen walking around, #stormtroopers patrol the area asking questions, and #darthvader can be seen on stage . #galaxysedge #disneygram #instadisney #instadisneyland #happiestplaceonearth #disneyinfluencer #disneyig

Here are a few photos from yesterday’s incredible #raptorsparade day! The excitement in the air was palpable, the joy was strong and free, and although the event was marred by senseless and violent acts, let us remember #WeTheNorthDay for what it was meant to be: a celebration and joyous occasion that brought 2 million people together commemorating a historic day in time. #Toronto #winningmeover #hoggerinto . . . . #WeTheNorth #raptors #raptorsparade2019 #letsgoraptors #NBAChampions #nbachampionship
