A long-awaited feature is FINALLY at Galaxy’s Edge.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
When Disney first announced the massive Star Wars lands that would come to be known as Galaxy’s Edge, the company promised a slew of interactive features that would help the lands completely immerse visitors inside the Star Wars galaxy. Unfortunately, and much to fans dismay, many of them weren’t present when the lands first opened. However, slowly but surely some of these elements are being integrated into Galaxy’s Edge, including one we saw just this weekend.

One of Disney’s World’s oldest hotels is scheduled for a gas outage this week that will affect anyone staying on property.
Shades of Green Hotel
The resort currently known as Shades of Green first opened as the Disney Golf Resort in 1973, catered mainly to those playing on Walt Disney World’s Palm and Magnolia golf courses. The resort’s name was changed to the Disney Inn and it was retimed to Snow White in 1986 in an attempt to raise occupancy rates and appeal to those beyond golfers. In the mid-1990s, the hotel was purchased by the U.S. Department of Defense for use by the military’s Morale, Welfare, and Recreation (MWR) program. Reopened as Shades of Green, it provides discounted prices for rooms and theme park tickets for military personnel of all ranks, as well as their families and guests.
