Epcot Today January 23, 2007

Posted by disneybear in : Disney, Trip Blogs ,

We slept in a bit this morning and then we headed off to EPCOT. The Living Seas has been redone with characters from Finding Nemo. It is a nice upgrade, but I was disappointed that they did not use Ellen Degeneres’s voice as the fish Dory. Since they use her voice and likeness at the Universe of Energy at the same park, I would of thought they could have acquired her to dub the new attraction. My laptop doesn’t want to accept photos from my camera, so pictures will have to wait till I get home. I may post some from my cell phone if I get the chance. MGM Studios is on the agenda for tomorrow!

Walt Disney World January 22, 2007

Posted by disneybear in : Disney, Trip Blogs ,

We made it! We are finally here! So far we are having a wonderful time. We met up with our friend, Bob yesterday and had dinner at Ohana. It is a family style restaurant with a Hawaiian flair. They changed the menu and it is not as good as it used to be. It was great to see Bob no matter what the setting. Last night we picked up our dear friends, Bill and Andy, who are staying with us for the week! We were all here in 1999 together, so it makes a nice reunion! We went to the Animal Kingdom this morning and rode Expedition Everest. It is probably the fastest roller coaster in Disneyworld. It was a lot of fun, but the second time we rode it I got a bit nauseated. My cell phone has been acting up so the blogs may not be as frequent as I would like.

Tigger is Innocent! Accusers Losers! January 8, 2007

Posted by disneybear in : Disney, In the News, Loser of the Week , 8 comments

I can’t believe that Tigger’s innocence is in question! The video clearly shows that the kid is pulling Tigger off balance. It is also not a punch! It is just a slap, not very hard, and it doesn’t even look intentional. The father, Jerry Monaco, even said that at first he thought his son had done something. Why would he say that? His son must do things like this and he suspected him. Jerry Monaco, Sr. and Jerry Monaco, Jr. are my losers of the week!

Disneyland in Malaysia? June 20, 2006

Apparently a company calledÂ UEM World Bhd has been talking to The Walt Disney Company about the possibility of building a Disney park in Johor, Malaysia. Please, please, no. The Walt Disney Company needs to focus on the parks they have now. ManyÂ attractions haveÂ closed atÂ Walt Disney World and they have not been replaced. I think building more and more Disney Theme Parks softens the magic and makes each of the previous parks a little less special. Would you want a copy of the Louvre in every City? Or how about Big Ben? I think it was a mistake to ever build a park outside The United States. Mickey Mouse is American as Apple Pie. Sure…we can share him, but I think he should spend more time at home!

Disneyland 2006 Day One June 1, 2006

Posted by disneybear in : Disney, Disneyland 2006, Photo Blog ,

We made it! It was a long flight out here. I think I am getting too old for long air travel. There is just no room in the seats and they are so uncomfortable. We went to Rainforest Cafe for dinner and it was delicious. We tried the new Tower of Terror at California Adventure and really liked it. It is different from Walt Disney World’s but is really fun. We also got a chance to try the new Space Mountain. I like the special effects that they have added, as well as the new soundtrack, but the ride is more fun at Walt Disney World. We gotta hit the hay as we are jet lagged and exhausted. More tomorrow.

Walt Disney World’s Primeval Whirl April 11, 2006

This is a video from when our friend Chuck came down to Walt Disney World with us. In all the times we have visited Animal Kingdom we had never been on Primeval Whirl. The ride really tossed us around. I thought I was gonna pee my pants!! Enjoy!

Disney World Opens New Website On Expedition Everest January 18, 2006

Posted by disneybear in : Disney ,

Walt Disney World has opened a new website about its newest attraction, Expedition Everest. The attraction is scheduled to open early this year at Walt Disney World’s Animal Kingdom. Animal Kingdom is my least favorite park at Walt Disney World. The attractions are spread all over the park, with a lot of nothin’ in between. Expedition Everest will hopefuly add a much needed boost to Disney’s Zoo!

Don’t Lose Your Car at Disneyworld December 7, 2005

Now I Remember!

Disneyland and Walt Disney World are truly the happiest places on earth, but they certainly can be tiring. There is nothing more disconcerting than after a long day at the park not being able to locate your car. On a recent family reunion to Disneyworld, my sister-in-law came up with a great idea. Use your digital camera to take a picture of the row you parked your car in! Since it is digital, you can just delete it once you get back to your car. It’s a true f00t saver!
