 Jack-Jack (The Incredibles), all grown-up


 Linguini (Ratatouille)


Sid (Toy Story)

Yehaa! Bob


I've blogged about 'Yehaa Bob' Jackson before and my opinion remains the same.   He's great!

We caught his show the other night in which he started out with several Holiday tunes and I thought oh no, I hope the whole show isn't going to be holiday tunes, because I love his 'regular' show.  It wasn't.

But I have to say that Bob's version of the 'Twelve Days of Christmas' was the most fun I've had in a long time. Judging by the reaction of everyone else, they loved it, too.

Confession # 22: Mind-Change!

Okay, so I wasn't thrilled when Disney announced that
'Avatar-land' would be a huge new part of Disney's Animal Kingdom. (Even tho I enjoyed the film immensely)

I was hoping Disney would create 'Australia' to go along with Africa and Asia.

Imagine:
   an Outback area (kangaroos, wallabys, dingoes, emus,
        koalas),
   The Great Barrier Reef,
   a "Shrimp on the Barbie" food kiosk,
   and my personal favorite: "Mad Max", the ride.

Sigh.

But then, over on the Disney Parks Blog,


Okay, so now I'm interested!


"As these concept renderings show, in the world of AVATAR guests will encounter awe-inspiring floating mountains and wander through a nighttime jungle of bio-luminescent plants that are alive with light and sound. 

Guests will also discover what it feels like to soar into the sky riding a Banshee."

= Glow with the Show

These FABULOUS  Mickey Ears are finally coming to WDW!


Guests of the Walt Disney World Resort will light the night thanks to new Glow with the Show Ear hats that will magically change colors in sync with fireworks, shows and each other at Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

Fun interactive versions of the famous Mickey Ear hats will debut on Oct. 15 during the 15th anniversary of Fantasmic!, the nighttime spectacular at Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

These magical Ear hats glow in myriad colors, commanded with the latest technology to complement the imagery and beat of the fireworks and spectaculars. When not activated by these experiences, more surprises are in store for participants as the magical ears glow with other ears and settings around the Vacation Kingdom.

“Technology allows the Ear hats to dance and play along with each musical and illuminated sequence. They truly bring the show’s environment out of the lagoon and the sky, and into the audience in an amazing and dazzling new way, making our guests truly Glow With the Show,” said Dara Trujillo, manager of merchandise marketing, communication, synergy and integration, Walt Disney World Resort.

And beginning Oct. 19, guests will be able to experience the Wishes fireworks extravaganza at Magic Kingdom with the new Glow with the Show Ear hats. And during the holiday season guests can don their hats and “glow” with Spectacle of Dancing Lights at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and at Holiday Wishes: Celebrate the Spirit of the Season fireworks display and Celebrate the Magic, the nighttime projection show at Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom.

Each set of Glow with the Show Ear hats is available for $25 at select locations throughout the Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Hollywood Studios.


The new Glow with the Show Ear hats made their debut at Disney California Adventure in 2012 at World of Color.
