A Look at the Past and Present Incarnations of Journey into Imagination

Over the years there have been three incarnations of the much beloved Journey into Imagination attraction at the Imagination Pavilion in EPCOT's Future World.

Fantasmic! A Disney Hollywood Studios Nighttime Spectacular

When the sun goes down at Walt Disney World it doesn't have to be time to head home. My family loves to spend nighttime in the parks and explore all of the magical details of Disney after dark. Fans know that some of the most spectacular shows and effects that Disney has created to entertain the masses happen at the end of the night. Fan favorites include "Wishes" Magic Kingdom Fireworks, Epcot's "Illuminations: Reflections of Earth", and my favorite at Disney's Hollywood Studios "Fantasmic!"

Epcot Segway Tour To Close

If you want to experience a segway tour at Epcot with a nature influence, you have until early July to do so. Disney has made plans to close the Nature-Inspired by Design Segway Tour on July 3, 2012.

The tour, which dates back to 2009, gives guests a chance to interact with Disney cast members and scientists as well as see how nature inspires their work environments. In addition, the three hour tour lets guests ride on a Segway X-2 in an offroad, backstage area of Epcot.

New Entertainment Fastpass To Be Tested At Magic Kingdom

Word out of Walt Disney World has it that the Magic Kingdom will be the spot for a new Fastpass trial this month. During March, Disney will be testing their famous Fastpass system with their nighttime entertainment.

Cast members will distribute the Fastpasses by hand to guests on random days in March between 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. Guests lucky enough to be a part of the experiment will be able to return to the Castle hub at the time printed on the Fastpass. From there, the cast members will be on hand to help direct guests in order to watch that night's fireworks show or nighttime parade.

Take Flight with Disney Hollywood Studios' Brown Derby Bar

Modeled after the original Hollywood Brown Derby restaurant built in Hollywood California in 1928, the Disney's Brown Derby brings old Hollywood glamor to a theme park. Upscale and on point it's easy to overlook that most of the guests are in shorts and t-shirts. If you are looking for and enhanced dining experience, the Brown Derby has a full service bar for it's guests with many unique cocktails poured and presented with table side drama.

Habit Heroes Closes Amid Controversy

You may recall a story we brought you in February highlighting Epcot's newest exhibit, Habit Heroes. Turns out, a whole lot of people had a whole lot to say about the attraction, and not all of it was high praise.

Habit Heroes was designed to give guests an interactive experience that focused on healthy habits and choices for a healthier lifestyle. In it, guests could help heroes Callie Stenics and Will Power battle such villains as Snacker and Lead Bottom. Sounds good, right?

Disney Castmember BlanketEARs Stitch for a Cause

Back in 2007, a group of Disney castmembers would meet once a week to knit caps for soldiers that were serving overseas. In the past 5 years, the group has grown into a larger organization that calls themselves the BlanketEARS.
