So who has been?
I went Sunday. It was pretty awesome. Even with reservations required, it was already still pretty packed. I think the biggest problem they have right now is figuring out a better system to get people into the Cantina. Our time block in the park was from 2-6 pm, and by 2:15 the Cantina was already completely booked for the entire 4 hour block. You couldn't even get on the wait list. So needless to say, we did not get to see the Cantina...
My only other (minor) complaint is that there seemed to be lines everywhere in the park, but it's really tough to tell what any of the lines are for. So you're not always sure which line to get in. Am i in line to get into the Cantina, or am i in line to build a lightsaber? Who knows?! All the signs are in Aurebesh, and you're supposed to use the app (the Disneyland app is awesome btw) to translate, which i guess is kinda cool, but it's also kinda annoying at times.
Other than that, it was great. It was cool just to wonder around and take everything in. The Stormtroopers patrolling the park were pretty awesome, they were probably my favorite part of the experience. The Smuggler's Run attraction was better than i expected. I had read some not-so-great reviews before we went.. The wait was worth it.
All in all we only spent about an hour in Galaxy's Edge, it was my first time at Disneyland and we only had the one day there, so we were trying to squeeze as much as we could into the day. But really, with only the one ride for now, and if you can't get into the Cantina, and if you don't plan on spending $200 to build a lightsaber, there just really isn't much else to do. I can't see spending the full 4 hour block in that park..
That place is going to be a nightmare when it opens to everyone without reservations on the 24th...
