Featured Attraction

This week we look at Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom. Mark talked about his interview with Imagineer Alex Wright about the attraction way back in Episode 7.

Ask the Kid

Yep, it’s back! You sent us a bunch of questions for The Kid, and we asked him! This week’s question was asked by Stuart Sternberg, also known as DisneyGeekDad:

“Hi Kid, If you could go to Disney World tomorrow what are the first three things you would do in the parks?”

The Kid answered with an over all list of three things in three different parks: Soarin’, Mickey’s PhilharMagic and Toy Story Mania. Then he decided to go with his choices in each park, since it’s more likely that we’d stay in a single park.

Magic Kingdom: Mickey’s PhilharMagic, Enchanted Tiki Room – Under New Management and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Epcot: Soarin’, Mission:Space Green Team and Innoventions

Disney’s Hollywood Studios: Toy Story Midway Mania, Lights Motors Action and Star Tours

Disney’s Animal Kingdom: Kilimanjaro Safaris, Kali River Rapids and The Boneyard

Magical Moment

This week’s Magical Moment comes from Mary Tesch, who had a wonderful experience with a very helpful bus driver named Lee.
