Happy Anniversary Epcot!

I have mentioned a number of times that Epcot is my favorite Disney park. So you can probably imagine then that, as you read this, I am thrilled to be in Epcot today, celebrating the 30th anniversary of Walt’s vision for tomorrow….

With that in mind, I thought this preview video of Epcot, filmed for the opening on October 1, 1982, was the perfect way to celebrate. Enjoy! 🙂

Thrifty Thursday: Pin Trading is a Thrifty Way to Have Fun!

Pin trading is an inexpensive way to have fun and interact with Disney Cast Members!  When we first tried pin trading in 2008, Ashley loved it.  At first she was really shy and wanted us to ask for pins, but after a day or so she got used to it and was quickly on a mission for all the “baby” Disney Characters.  Read more

Terrific Tuesday: Future World Attractions

   

As you walk through the gates of Epcot, you enter the Future World.  The first attraction encountered is the giant sphere that houses Spaceship Earth.  Here you’ll take a ride through the centuries and learn about the history of communication.  You will also create your own future with the touch screen computer located in your “car”.  Following the ride, there is an interactive post show where visitors can play virtual reality games and even send your trip to the future via email post card home to friends and family.  Read more

Cast Member’s Corner: A Very Merry Holiday To You!

Disney is a place for celebration, from celebrating being on vacation to holidays.  Disney wants you to celebrate anything and everything, and make it a magical celebration.  I personally love holidays, especially down in Disney.  I’m not just talking about Halloween, Christmas, Fourth of July, or any of those.  I’m talking about birthdays, 1st visits, and family reunions too!  Disney is the perfect place to celebrate these things and the Cast Members love to join in, in your celebration.
