We all rely on our technology for capturing those perfect Disney memories. Even if you purchased Memory Maker you still need your own phone or camera to remember the memories in between. Depending on the device you have you may find yourself, and your device drained by the middle of the afternoon! Located in the middle of the Magic Kingdom you will find a great place to stop, relax, have the entire family use the bathroom, maybe eat those snacks you snuck into the park... and charge your device!
BREAKING NEWS One of the popular tier 1 attractions at EPCOT will be closing for a lengthy refurbishment. This refurbishment will upgrade the attraction to a full HD experience call Soarin' Around The World and will include sights, sounds, and smells from many signature locations! The current film which only features California locations has been shown since the attractions original debut at Disney's California Adventure and was duplicated at The Land Pavilion in EPCOT debuting May 5th, 2005. Ever notice your flight number is 5505? The current attraction is set to close on January 4th, 2016 and re-open sometime in the "summer" of 2016 complete with a 3rd theater! When that date becomes available we will let you know. In the meantime guests who love the attraction can anticipate a "copy" of this attraction when "FlyOver America" opens in the Mall Of America in the spring of 2016. Former Imagineer Rich Rothschild is assisting the Mall Of America to build this attraction.
Are you a Chase credit or debit card member? Well if you are visiting EPCOT... You will want to be! Chase has an exclusive location only for Chase card members that is a great escape from the park. On our recent visit we flashed our Chase Disney Visa and were welcomed into this exclusive area!
Disney's Hollywood Studios just can't make up its mind about what to do with the space left behind by the closure of the Back Lot Tour. Last year it was a 'cool' Frozen themed area allowing guests to play in a 'snow box' (similar to a sand box, but with finely chipped ice simulating snow). You can now find a pop up Star Wars retail store tucked behind the Monsters Inc. meet and greet. This area is where the Back Lot Tour used to drop you off at the end of your ride.
It happens to everyone... you finally get to the bus stop and realize you forgot something back at the room. You think, do I have enough time to run back and get it before the next bus comes? OR, you feel like you have been waiting F...O...R...E...V...E...R... for the next bus to come, and this isn't the first time in forever! I'm excited to share with you that on a recent visit to Walt Disney World we were able to experience the calm that comes with knowing. Using GPS tracking Disney has established a system that estimates the arrival time of your next bus. After spending over a week on Disney property I can say that it is pretty accurate too. I'd rather know if the next bus is 10 minutes out rather than wait 5 minutes and wonder what is taking so long. Now if they can just install these at the parks too!
Our exclusive purchase of a new MagicBand being released this Friday at the Walt Disney World Resort! This is the first time Disney will be offering a purple MagicBand and the first time they will be featuring Maleficent, Ursula, and The Evil Queen on a MagicBand! I hope to see more MagicBands like this being released real soon! In recent weeks the Magic of Disney Animation building suffered closure due to the ongoing expansion of Disney's Hollywood Studios. This came with mixed feelings of many park guests as one of the cult favorite attractions was housed within this building. No news yet on if they will be relocating the Animation Academy or if this is closed for good... But in the meantime they will be using the space to immerse guests in the world of Star Wars both old and new and my guess would be it will be the backdrop to build hype for the upcoming Star Wars Land. This location is set to open in December of 2015. Morimoto Asia opened this week at the newly named Disney Springs riverfront entertainment district. We got a chance to tour the restaurant and we were blown away by the upscale dining ambiance! |
