Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets, Star Wars: Millennium Falcon-Smuggler’s Run, Mountain Dew White Out & Waymo

There have been some ups and downs as of late but there have been some nice moments. One unexpected delight was finally seeing a Waymo vehicle in Orlando. For those not in the know, it’s a rideshare service using white Jaguar SUV’s which has quite the gimmick: the vehicle has various gizmos on the exterior because it’s self-autonomous, meaning there’s no human driving it! Those cars have been in the news for mainly the wrong reasons as of late but it drove fine as the car was by me at we both stopped at a red light on the busy John Young Parkway.

I finally was able to sample the Dirty Mountain Dew, made with a cream flavor; it tastes how you’d expect. I also had the return of their White Out flavor, gone since 2019 and only available in an 18-pack with Code Red and Voltage. It still tastes good as well.

One day I returned to Walt Disney World, Hollywood Studios in particular. Millennium Falcon-Smuggler’s Run has a new version of the ride that’s now tied to The Mandalorian & Grogu. The user also has an influence on the second half of the ride-no spoilers as to what I’m referring to. The ride is still fun. I went to some other rides but the main reason for the trip: Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Starring The Muppets. The ride itself isn’t changed aside from decorations, and the same goes for the ride queue inside the building. I admit that the old Muppet*Vision 3D attraction used more of the Muppets but the theming is still good and like w/ Falcon, the ride is still a good time.

Hopefully, by the end of June I’ll post something new.
