Run time 1:19:32
In the Walt Disney World news, sponsored by Small
World Vacations, MousePlanet’s preferred travel provider, all of the news
came from this past Monday’s Walt Disney
World Park Update, and links to the various information reported can be
found there. You can enter the Dream Jobs contest at careerbuilder.com here.
All of the Disneyland news came from this past Tuesday’s Disneyland
Park Update, and links to the various information reported can be found
there.
Our Tip of the Week is to take advantage of the archival-quality personalized
maps that Disney now has on their web site. You can get them here.
Our featured topic this week was a discussion of last week’s press event
at Walt Disney World. Mark gave a summary of everything happened during the
event. We also played three interviews that Mark did: one with Al Weiss, President
of Worldwide Operations for Walt Disney Parks & Resorts,; one with Brad Rex,
WDW Vice President for Epcot; and one with the biggest Disney celebrities
available at the event. For a peek at some of the stuff that Mark talked about,
here are some photos:

This week’s Featured Attraction is the Rock
‘n’ Roller Coaster at the Disney-MGM Studios.
This week’s Review system spotlight focuses on Cafe
Orleans at Disneyland Park.
This week’s Magical Moment came from Ray Kuykendall of the Bare Necessities
from the Let’s
Talk About Disney podcast, who experienced magic when his wife Cindy caught
the Disney bug on her first visit to Walt Disney World.
The winner of our first contest is Todd Breaux, who won a MousePlanet (or
