Over the last few years The Daily City has grown into one of Orlando’s real treasures. It’s as close to a hyper-local news blog as we’ve got in the town and it continues to deliver great content on a daily basis (not to mention its… Read More »Why do you love EPCOT Center?
Between the family’s annual trips to Disneyland, I used to listen to my official Disneyland album over and over again. If closed my eyes, it was almost like I was there. That’s the transporting magic of Disney parks music.
It seems like its been forever since Disney last released an official album for Disneyland and Walt Disney World. In 2005 there was a CD celebrating Disneyland’s 50th anniversary. And there was my favorite park’s CD issued for the Millennium celebration.
The good news is that Disney Parks has just announced that two new 2-CD sets will be released in the parks on August 20 with both Disneyland and Walt Disney World getting their own official albums (although to be fair, WDW should get four CDs). I know I’ll be adding these to my collection.

I came across this rumor recently (thanks to “The Epcot Explorer’s Encyclopedia” Facebook page) regarding the glass pyramids of Future World. Supposedly, the entire Imagination pavilion will close on Jan. 2nd 2014. The rumor states that Captain EO will close for good, but the store… Read More »Rumor Mill: Imagination Pavilion closing entirely in 2014?
As Walt Disney World moves closer to fully implementing it $2 billion Next-Gen technology MyMobile Magic, having high speed internet connection for your mobile phone becomes more important than ever.

Disney World is expensive. Okay, so that’s not a newsflash or anything, but not everything at Disney World costs money. Some of my best moments have been on the cheap or pretty close to it. Sitting on a bench and people watching? Absolutely free and… Read More »Disney Off the Beaten Path and On the Cheap
Part of what makes a trip to the Magic Kingdom so, well, magical is all the little detail that goes into making it a transporting experience. Sure, there were never roaming horse drawn trolleys of signing and dancing folk back in the early 1900s, but… Read More »Main Street Trolley Show Gets Summer Update
