Hyperion Adventures Podcast: The Disney Podcast Of Positivity

We were lucky enough to spend four days at The Most Magical Place On Earth to celebrate Michelle's birthday. We had so much fun that we couldn't wait to tell you all about it. So, this week, we're sharing Our May 2023 Walt Disney World Visit Recap. Along with a lot of the stuff we do on most of our journeys to the destination Where Dreams Come True, we also checked out some new experiences. We'll tell you all about our very rainy night at DVC's Moonlight Magic at Typhoon Lagoon and our stay at the Copper Creek Villas at Disney's Wilderness Lodge. We also had the chance to do the Keys to the Kingdom Tour at Magic Kingdom for the second time. Find out if it is just as amazing as the first time we did it some six years ago.

Once we complete Our May 2023 Walt Disney World Visit Recap, it's time for the Disney Stories of the Week. In this episode, we'll tell you about some fantastic perks that will soon be available to Walt Disney World Annual Passholders. And we share info on where you can take part in some brand new experiences based on the new, hit, Disney live-action film, The Little Mermaid.

It's almost May and that means it's also just about time for one of our favorite holidays; Star Wars Day. So, this week, we thought we'd celebrate by talking about Our Favorite Star Wars Series Episodes! Whether it's animated or live action that you prefer, there really has been some wonderful content from A Galaxy Far, Far Away. We'll share the ones that impacted us the most and tell you why they make us fall in love with the franchise all over again.

Once we complete our look at Our Favorite Star Wars Series Episodes, it's time for the Disney Stories of the Week. In this episode, we share yet another discount for those looking to take a cruise through outer space aboard the Halcyon. We also tell you about where you could try out an activity that's quickly becoming super popular while at The Walt Disney World Resort. And, we let you know where you will have the chance to be part of live-action Ariel's world during your next visit to the Disney Parks.

As always, we wrap it all up with tips that might help you on your next vacation!

We had to change our plans on our main topic just a little bit. But, that's good news for you because that means we get some of Michelle's always amazing research. This week, we return to our series looking back at a century of the Walt Disney Company with Disney At 100 - The 1970s - A Dream Realized. The '70s were a very tumultuous time for Disney. They were without Walt and Roy who had guided the company for over 50 years. Yet, somehow, they persevered and created some of our favorite locations we know and love to this day. Michelle will tell you who the players were behind it and some of the hurdles they had to clear to make it happen.

Once we finish up our Disney At 100 - The 1970s segment, it's time for the Disney Stories of the Week. In this episode, we share details of some amazing stuff headed to Disneyland Paris. We also discuss an exciting, new, nighttime event that is coming to the Disneyland Resort that is of particular interest to our LGBTQ+ friends. Then, we tell you a few new facts we learned about Tiana's Bayou Adventure including when your last chance will be to ride Splash Mountain at The Happiest Place One Earth. And we let you know when you'll be able to experience a super-heroic new musical show that is coming to Disney California Adventure Park.
