New Meet and Greet Planned for Disney's Animal Kingdom

Disney is planning a new character meet and greet to debut at its Animal Kingdom park. The site of the new meet and greet will be Beastly Bazaar; that store is set to close August 12 to undergo its transformation to the character-guest meet up space.

Guests who liked the Beastly Bazaar's bulk candy purchasing option will be happy to note this feature will still be offered within the park after the store's closing - at Chester and Hester's in the Dinoland, U.S.A. section.

Get Your Mickey Fix!

We love shopping online for awesome Disney stuff, and a new site just popped up that's going to be very dangerous for many of us! (AND they're giving away a $50 gift card right now, which makes it even MORE dangerous...) It's "All the Disney stuff you never knew you needed" and there's always more!

Art of Animation Finding Nemo Photo Room Tour

Melissa just got back from Walt Disney World and she took some wonderful pictures to share with us of the Finding Nemo Rooms at Disney's Newest Value Resort, Art of Animation! Disney's Imagineers wanted to put guests of this expansive resort right into the classic Disney and Pixar stories that we all know and love, from this photo tour it looks like they've done just that.

Wine & Champagne Kiosk in Epcot's France

Perhaps one of the least assuming places to grab a fantastic cocktail is the small Kiosk on the side of the water in Epcot's France Pavilion. This small but bustling booth serves up a variety of French alcoholic delights. You can fine nine selections of wines, the French Beer Kronenbourg 1664 and chilled shots of Grand Marnier.

Disney's Hollywood Studios Sign Involved In Small Fire

Disney's Hollywood Studios was the scene of a small electrical fire over the weekend that caused damage to one of its popular signs.

On Saturday night, the sign at the Magic of Disney Animation building caught fire when a ballast shorted out sometime around 9:20 PM. The area in and around the building was evacuated and no guests or cast members were injured during the small fire.

At this time, the show inside of the building is still up and running. It's lights out, however, for the sign until it's completely repaired.

Date Night in Epcot's Mexico Pavilion

Mexico! When I think of Mexico I think of the Food, the Music, and the Tequila. All of these things can make for a fantastic night at Epcot's Mexico Pavilion in the World Showcase. Situated on the left hand side at the beginning of the promenade, the Mexico Pavilion beckons you for fun more than romance, but it still makes for a fantastic destination for your Disney Date Night.
