Mousekeeping

Just a little ‘mouse’keeping note: I’m in the process of moving The Disney Blog to its own domain www.TheDisneyBlog.com and onto the MovableType blogging platform. I’m working with LivingDot.com for the hosting and everyone there has been very helpful so far. So let’s hope things go smoothly. But if things do get a little rocky around here for the next few days, that’s why.

Big day at Disney Themeparks

Today is a big day of events at Disney themeparks around the world. The kickoff of the 18 month long celebration of Disneyland’s 50th anniversary begins today. If you can’t be there yourself, I suggest keeping a close eye on LaughingPlace.com‘s coverage.

When Did Dinosaurs Roam The Earth?

If you answer they roam the earth today. Then you are correct. LaughingPlace.com has captured rare footage of a completely untethered, unleashed, Dinosaur being introduced to the throngs of tourists at Disney’s Animal Kingdom in Orlando. Don’t worry it’s not bioengineering, this Dinosaur won’t break loose of its pen and eat the guests. No, Lucky… Read More »When Did Dinosaurs Roam The Earth?

Disneyland’s itching for more bad publicity

Cory at BoingBoing links to another story of a ‘rogue’ tour guide, this time author and Disneyland historian Dave Koenig, being asked not to give tours on Disney property. Does Disneyland really need all this bad publicity? Who is making the decisions up there, Goofy? I agree that Disney has the right to control tour… Read More »Disneyland’s itching for more bad publicity

A little pixie shopping…

I’ve been looking for some new accessories for my car. I collect Disney antenna balls, but my new car doesn’t have an antenna. (The horror. The horror.) So I was thinking about some Disney themed plate frames, metal tags, and window decals. (I’m such a rebel.) I’ve been looking for the perfect stuff during my… Read More »A little pixie shopping…
