NEWS! Reservations for 'Minnie's Holiday Dine at Hollywood & Vine Dinner Fantasmic!' now open!
DisneyDan  Thursday, August 6, 2015 8:16:28 AM
Hello everyone,

Walt Disney World Resort finally put online the speculated holiday dining for Hollywood and Vine at Disney's Hollywood Studios, this Christmas season. There had been a couple of months of speculation, since the dinner option for the restaurant had disappeared.

The official description on the Disney websites says:

"[A] rare chance to see Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy and Goofy all together (in all-new holiday finery) making merry with you and your Guests! Get hugs and photos with your happy hosts, and wonder as you wander through the dazzling décor, heartwarming music and holiday-themed food and activities—followed afterwards by special VIP seating for the popular Fantasmic! nighttime spectacular."

That's right - it's a Fantasmic! dining package as well as character dining. We are glad to hear that there will be brand new outfits, too!

The brand new experience will run from November 7th 2015, until January 3rd 2016, and will cost $52.99 per adult and $31.99 per child age 3 to 9 (plus tax and gratuity). You can visit the official Disney Dining page to make your reservations, or call (407) WDW-DINE or (407) 939-3463.

UPDATE: If you call the Disney Dining line, you can make telephone reservations without the extra expense of the Fantasmic! package. Prices are $50.05 per adult and $29.81 per child age 3 to 9 (including tax but NOT gratuity).

Will you be making reservations? We made ours already!

Dan.

Welcome to Summer!

Hello everyone,

Last night was the Summer Solstice, which traditionally marks the start of summer. Across North America many schools finished yesterday for the long summer break.
So, today being Saturday, the first whole day of summer, and the first whole day off of school, I thought we'd take a look at what our beloved Disney Character friends might get up to this year!

Here's some snaps from them in past years of the Characters having fun around the world.

Maybe they'll join a Summer Camp again?

They might even do some surfing!

Or perhaps try some party games, such as the limbo!

They could even take a road trip down the famous Route 66, like Goofy!

Finally, these two guys seem to always know what to do! Phineas and Ferb will undoubtedly come up with some awesome inventions this summer!

Wherever your summer adventure takes you, I hope you all have tons of fun, sprinkled with Disney magic!

Today is a Bank Holiday here in the UK (a government holiday to some other countries).

It also marks the start of the last few days of summer before people return from their summer vacations to go back to school and work.
I thought we'd celebrate the last day of summer fun and sun by taking a look at what some of our Disney Character friends get up to on while they are on vacation!  [ Read More... ]
