Episode:277. I talk about my recent trip to Walt Disney World! I go through the safety measures that Disney has in place and if it made me feel safe. We also cover the recent news like the fact that Disney has officially announced the closure of three attractions. Could more closures be on the horizon? What other attractions could be at risk? We also talk about the annual pass options for cancelling or extending your pass. During my trip report I talk about the crowd levels on each day and my first ride experience on Mickey and Minnie’s runaway railway. At Epcot I got to experience what I call the Flower, Food, Wine and Garden festival, I give my pick for best dish at the festival. I also had great dinning experiences at California Grill and Olivia’s. Overall if you are considering going to Disney in the near future I would say that you should use extreme caution and make sure that you are OK with the risk but also know that Disney has done a lot to make things as safe as they can.

Episode 275: Today on the show we discuss some news and the results of our recent social media polls! We caused quite the debate with our poll on which side to start with when visiting World Showcase at Epcot. Do you start with Mexico or Canada? We discuss the differing opinions and give our thoughts. We also had a poll last week where we asked which form of transportation would you most like to ride for fun…The Monorail or the Skyliner. We discuss the results of that poll as well. In the news, Walt Disney World is re-opening as we speak and the early results so far have been positive. There was a huge mistake this week with erroneous charges to annual passholders that had to be reversed. We also discuss the precautions that Disney has made to try and make the parks as safe a possible.

Episode: 274: Today we “dig a little deeper” into the history of Splash Mountain and discuss the re-theming of the attraction to Princess and the Frog! We start by going over some of the latest news headlines. Construction has returned to the Tron coaster but it appears that it will be done in phases going forward. We have an update on the transportation options that will be available to guests when the parks re-open this month. Annual Passholders had a chance to schedule a preview of the parks but you had to be quick! (and a little lucky too). Then it is on to our main topic…Splash Mountain. We give our thoughts as to why the attraction needs to change its theme. We go into the history of the attraction and how it came to be. We discuss what we think of the concept art that Disney released for the re-theme and we talk about the imagineers that will be working on this project as well as when we think this re-theming will be completed.
