We wrap up with exciting news this week from the Star Wars planet Battu. As you can see in the photos below, there is a tree standing on the tallest structure. While some guests may equate this addition as a Christmas touch, more importantly, this tree signifies that the last piece of steel is now in place on the building. Additionally thrilling is the new lighting added on the entrance of the gateway to Battu. Unfortunately, builders have placed wood in the gateway so the view into the land is now temporarily blocked.
