8/14 Last Tour to Endor at Disney’s Hollywood Studios

 

 

We then headed over to the "Star Tours Shutdown", which ended with the ride appearing to be blown up.  It was neither blown up nor shut down, we even rode it again that night!  I thought this was the weak point of the evening, but those who I know who like explosions enjoyed it.  We do have full video!

We were the "Last Tour to Endor" for the night, and many thought that Star Tours was shutting down after our ride.  It ended up being the best Star Tours ride ever, with a lot of excitement.  We have video of it!

Cast members say a last goodbye to us, posing for photo.  We were the two last guests to exit the ride area.

A last look on the way out – we left after 2am after what was an incredible evening.  I am very glad we were able to go, we really didn't think we would!
