Magic Kingdom Update – New Fantasyland and more! (Part 1)

I love my walks through the Magic Kingdom. This last Sunday was extra nice. The winter holiday crowds were out in force, but that only makes people watching better. The weather was just on the chilly side of perfect, which suits me fine this time of year. And a lot of changes have transpired since last time we updated from the park. So many, that this is a two part update.

Over at the old Skyway location, hard to tell if more work has been done. Doesn’t look like it. But it is the last Christmas these particular decorations will be hung. I wouldn’t mind having them for my home.


The full tarp is up around Prince Charming’s Regal Carrousel. Gives riders a new experience inside.

New Gourmet Dish at Remy on the Disney Dream

I don’t know about you, but I could watch Chef Scott Hunnel talk about food all day. Here, Chef Hunnel reveals one of the latest creations on the Remy menu — Jamon Wrapped Shrimp, a mouthwatering Italian-concept dish that is both salty and sweet. Of course, you have to be lucky enough to have a trip booked on the Disney Dream to experience it, so I’m happy they’re sending out these tempting videos:

One of the promises of the high end dining restaurants on the Disney Dream was that the dishes would be regularly re-invented, so repeat visitors would not experience the same food twice. So far they’re living up to that promise nicely. Does this video make you more likely to book a trip with Disney Cruise Line?
