Disney picks the best times to refurbish (not), originally uploaded by Erin *~*~*. Why does Disney choose festval time to refurb? So far, I am halfway around World Showcase and two countries (Japan and Cananda) are enshrined in walls of Walt quotations. Who makes these decisions, anyway?
Wise counsel from Walt Disney, originally uploaded by Erin *~*~*. There’s a little refurb going on in EPCOT’s China
Magic Kingdom refurb continues, originally uploaded by Erin *~*~*. This is in the bus stop area on the park side of the bus lane (as opposed to the lagoon side). A little let down at the lack of pithy Walt quote on the sign
© Copyright 2010 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com Walt Disney was a smart dude. He questioned the conventional. There is proof of this at MouseGear, a shop in Walt Disney World’s EPCOT. Just go through a rack of t-shirts there and you will probably find this one. Here, on this shirt, Walt asks perhaps the most important question he ever came up with – “WHY do we have to grow up?” Why, indeed? I’ve often wrestled...

Times Hero Complex blog reports that The Disney Archives are about to be made viewable by the public at a new museum in Glendale, California.

Apparently, these cats serve a very special purpose… you’ll have to read the article to find out! Long but worth it, this article touches upon one of the first things I learned about the making of Disneyland in Anaheim,...
© Copyright 2010 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com Disney quietly working on $1 billion-plus “next generation” technology project It’s a story after my own, geeky heart. The Orlando Sentinel’s Daily Disney blog reports the existence of a sooper seekrit high tech initiative to incorporate a great deal more wireless technology across the spectrum of the Walt Disney World experience, including the use of RFID (radio frequency identification) chips. Enshrouded in confidentiality agreements and references to “next...
© Copyright 2008 Tink *~*~* http://MyMobileAdventures.com Walt Disney loved a good railroad. He built one in his backyard when he lived in California, and he built one that circles Disneyland in Anaheim. So naturally, when it came to building the Magic Kingdom in Orlando, that park had to have a railroad too.
