A Little Disney Magic

I was at DHS waiting for a bus to Port Orleans the other morning. And waiting. About 10 minutes.

A Bus scheduler with a clipboard and radio comes across the driveway and tells me that he's got a bus coming for me. Just me. I was the only one there.

A bus comes around the corner. It has VIP Cast Member on the front sign.

The Bus scheduler with a clipboard and radio says, "This is your bus". Just mine. I was the only passenger.

How's THAT for Disney Magic!

Haunted Mansion Resort Rooms ??

Whoa. How Cool would this be?

Food and Wine 2010


The Marketplace list has been released.

What!!
No Boboti ?!?  No Durban Spiced Chicken (South Africa) ?!?
No Frozen Baileys (Ireland) ??


But wait.
The Godiva Iced Chocolate Coffee (Belgium) does sound good!
Ireland will offer a warm chocolate lava cake with Baileys Irish Cream Ganache.

And as long as the Green Tea Plum Wine Cooler (China) and the Pecan Bread Pudding (Hops & Barley) are as delicious as they were last year, I'll be happeee!!

How About now:

Happy Anniversary, ToT !

WDW's Twilight Zone Tower of Terror officially opened July 22nd, 1994.


This remains my favorite thing to do at Disney's Hollywood Studios
(after Who Wants to Be a Millionaire closed in 2006).

Ever wonder what happens if you don't fasten that seat belt?

Confession # 14: My Favorite Disney Character


... is not Mickey or Minnie.

It's Pluto.

Because he does not speak - except for two words* in a 1931 cartoon,"The Moose Hunt", Pluto has to be very expressive in his actions and facial expressions.



And in "Mickey's Kangaroo", Pluto has a voice, although it's just his thoughts:





* Those two words: "Kiss Me"
