Bright Suns: A Black Spire Outpost Travelogue

When my wife and I went to Disneyland’s Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge for the first time, we decided to really get into it. We dressed up (you can read about the construction of our costumes here), and we also created characters that would be at home in the universe of Star Wars. So rather than…

Playing The Part: Star Wars Bounding At Galaxy’s Edge
