Jedi Training Academy








Yesterday we headed on over to Disneyland and hung out in Tomorrowland for about 4 hours. The kids sat thru 2 showings of the Jedi Show where about 25 kids are picked to train to be a Jedi. The kids didn't get picked at the first show because we weren't very close to the front but I promised we would get to the next show earlier to get a better seat. Both boys were fascinated with the show and Tyler memorized the moves. The best part was watching all those kids fight either Darth Vader or Darth Maul and the look of these kids faces were priceless. Some of the kids had this look of shock but a Jedi was there to help them with their moves to win the battle.













Josh is really really into Star Wars so he was happy to go to another show and wouldn't you know it, he was picked! He wore his Jedi robe and was given his lightsaber. All the kids went through the moves then the bad guys arrived. The children divided up into 2 lines and either fought Darth Vader or Darth Maul. Josh fought Darth Vader and he did very good. My mom was impressed that he wasn't afraid! Tyler was a bit upset because he wasn't picked but I told him we have many other times to try (plus Tyler needs to wear a brighter shirt to get singled out).










Afterwards, the kids got their very own lightsabers so both were extremely happy. It was an unusually warm day so I was wiped out, the park was crowded so it was time to head home.
