park pretty soon. those who do have be able to go star wars galaxy's edge around 8:00 this morning. once again for those of you planning to come down here to anaheim to check out the new expansion to the disneyland park, you need to have a reservation. they sold out online in about two hours a couple months ago. you can still get one by staying at a disneyland hotel, there are three of them. rooms are available but very pricey, cheapest rates at $412. live in anaheim, abc 7 news. >> reggie, of course, you are just coming back and we loved watching your reports on social and here on the air. what was the most surprising thing about your time there? >> the most surprising thing, i was surprised that i loved it more than i thought i was going to. everyone knows i'm a huge disney fan. >> sure. >> i'm not necessarily a "star wars" fan boy. i like it but am not into the
