We've been talking about my treating his family of four (two sons: six- and eight-year-olds, one of whom is the biggest Star Wars fan this side of a galaxy far, far away) to their first trip to WDW.
Next year, perhaps.
One look at those bunkbeds in Disney 's Star Wars hotel, and my great-nephew will be over-the-moon (so to speak)!!

Better start saving a few extra dollars...

And that does sound pretty cool (I saw the original Star Wars 6 times - at the movies!) and if your plans aren't till next year, that'll give them time to work things out (and possibly drop the prices). Plus, just maybe a year from now we'll have no more need for masks. *fingers crossed*

Her whole demeanor just drips with arrogance.
