Haven’t we been here before? Last year on leap day both Disneyland and the Magic Kingdom stayed open for a magical 24 hours to celebrate one more Disney day! We were there and had a blast.
At the time, I recall thinking there was no particular reason to do that again, but here I am at the Magic Kingdom yet again ready to do it all over again. Am I crazy? Probably. But it’s crazy in a good way, I think.
The official 24 hour day kicked off with an 6AM ceremony. The theme is Monstrous Summer All-Nighter, so of course Mike and Sulley from Monsters University were there.
Mickey and Minnie were even up early to welcome some press to the park.

Just returned from an evening of fun at Star Wars Weekends over at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. I don’t have time to write a full report this morning, but here are a few highlights. I arrived to late for most of the festivities, but was able to get into Darth’s Mall and catch the new Hyperspace Hoopla. Lots of great merchandise this year, both for the event and fresh from Star Wars too. There was a 10-minute queue just to get in to the store, then if you wanted photos, special merchandise, or a D-Tech figure, there were even more lines. Crazy.

According to Disney construction was to have officially started on Disney Springs in early May. It’s now mid-month, so I set off to see what visible evidence there was of the pending transformation.
