Favorite Jungle Cruise Setting?

On this cloudy and foggy morning, I’ve been thinking about one of my favorite Disneyland attractions: The Jungle Cruise.  This type of weather makes for a perfect Jungle Cruise ride in my opinion.  I love getting to the park early in the morning when it’s still damp out and cruising through the rivers of adventure.  There is nothing better.

So I’m wondering…  Do you agree with me that cloudy mornings are the perfect setting for the Jungle Cruise?  Or do you like sunny afternoons?  Or night cruises under the full of the moon?  Let us know what your favorite is in the comment section below.

The Red Car Trolley is Coming!

On June 15th, the all new Buena Vista Street will open at Disney California Adventure.  When that date comes, the Red Car Trolley will be making its way from the entrance of the park, down Buena Vista Street, to Hollywood Land, and finally making its way to the Hollywood Tower Hotel.

The Disney Parks Blog just posted some pictures of the trolley doing some testing.

I can’t wait for the Trolleys to come!  How about you?

45 Years of Pirates of the Caribbean

It is perhaps the single greatest attraction ever created in the history of theme parks and it’s celebrating it’s 45th anniversary this Sunday.

On March 18, 1967, the world was treated to the most advanced and remarkable attraction in the world: Pirates of the Caribbean.  The amount of detail and use of animatronic technology is unsurpassed.

Pinocchio and Friends at the Park!

The Disney Parks blog posted an incredible photo of Pinocchio and his supporting cast at the Magic Kingdom of Walt Disney World.

What a unique opportunity to see these rare characters from Walt Disney’s classic film!  I wish Stromboli and Lampwick still walked around the parks!
