Disney's newest resort, Lakeshore Lodge on Bay Lake, opens in summer 2027 on the former River Country site, and it looks incredible. Kelli breaks down every detail: the fiber optic river in the lobby floor, the Colors of the Wind blown glass sculpture, the lazy river and otter springs water area, three dining options including the lakefront Moon Glade table service, the plein air Imagineers' original artwork at the bar, and the whirlpool with fireworks views. Plus, Chris goes deep on Hidden Mickeys — where they came from, the largest ones in the world (including one you can only see from the air and one that no longer exists), and his personal favorites including the ones hiding in plain sight at the Polynesian.

• Reedy Creek Improvement District employees are finally getting their Walt Disney World passes back
