Our Tip of the Week was to use your digital camera to document things that you need to remember, such as the code on the back of your PhotoPass card or what clothing your child is wearing each day, in case they get lost.
Our featured topic this week was a discussion of the changes that have taken place around Epcot’s Future World over the last decade or so. If you’ve got an opinion on this, please let us know.
In This Week on MousePlanet, the content for this past Tuesday changed after the segment was recorded, with an additional MousePlanet Mailbag replacing the scheduled DVD reviews.
This week’s Magical Moment came from Mike Hamilton of the Disney Podcast Directory, who sent along a description of how he and his wife got engaged that he had his wife write up for posting on the DISboards.
