Hi folks, here we are again with the weekly Chip and Company Disney Week In Review. As usual there has been a lot of interesting news coming from our friends at the Disney company so we will present a sampling and encourage you to visit the Chip and Company website for more in depth reading. We will also give you a sample of the views of our talented staff of writers and let you know that there is a LOT more located at the website.

• For those of you headed to Walt Disney World for the Food and Wine Festival here is the lineup for the 2011 Eat To The Beat concert series.
• How would you like to see a special 5 minute movie clip from Disney-Pixar’s “Cars2” take a look right here, you won’t be disappointed.
• Here is another terrific trailer. The Muppets need to raise $10 million to save their theater from an evil oil man, get an idea of how they are going to do it by checking out The Muppets’ Official Trailer. Muppets are always good clean fun!!
• You may or may not have heard but Disney Worlds rumored “Royal Rooms” are coming to Port Orleans Riverside. If you read Opening In Early Spring 2012, The Royal Guest Rooms At Disney’s Port Orleans Riverside you can get all the details and even see some pictures.
• For those of you who are mavens of the fabulous water parks at Walt Disney World you will be happy to know that Photopass Is Back At Walt Disney World Water Parks. There are some terrific photo opportunities to be had so if you like the water parks take advantage of Photopass while you are there.
• Make sure to circle August 16th on your calendars if you are planning to attend any of the “special events” at the Food and Wine Festival. You will want to do that because August 16th is the day reservations open for these events.
• Grad Nite at Disneyland is undergoing some changes. All the details can be found when you read Disneyland Grad Nite – New Twists On A 50 Year Tradition Coming In 2012 and 2013.
• For our brave military members, Disney has an offer you may not be able to refuse if you would like to take a trans Atlantic cruise. If you are available there are are Military Rates For Transatlantic Sailing for the westbound sailing of the Disney Magic starting on September 10th.
• We heard this might be coming but now it’s official, starting July 3rd and running through September 30th (the close of the Disney fiscal year) Fantasmic! Expands To Seven Nights A Week. No word on what is going to happen after that so those of us traveling in October and later will just have to wait (but I already have our Fantasmic! Dining Package reserved in October).
• July 4th is always a huge day at Walt Disney World and that’s not going to change this year. All of the details and a video are available if you check out Video: Disney’s Celebrate America! A Fourth Of July Concert Fills The Sky. Those of you who will be in one of the parks – ENJOY!!!
• Disneyland Resort will be hosting the new Tinkerbell Half Marathon next January and in honor of this, Disney has unveiled the Inaugural Tinker Bell Half Marathon Medal. Take a look at it and get the marathon details all of my running friends.
• In several of my articles I have stated that my favorite restaurant at Walt Disney World or anywhere else for that matter is Victoria and Albert’s. Here is the reason why – Victoria and Albert’s Once Again Receives AAA Five Diamond Award. That’s 12 consecutive years folks, enough said!!

Chip and Company not only offers news but we have a wonderful staff of writers who are not shy about offering their thoughts and opinions about everything Disney. We give you a small sample here and ask you to visit the Chip and Company website to take advantage of what we have to offer,

• Speaking of sharing opinions, Savannah shares her thoughts on her Top 5 Favorite World Showcase Pavilions. See if they match yours!!
• In my first article in several weeks (sorry about blowing my own horn) I offered you my Top 5 Disney World Table Service Restaurants but I put a different twist on it. Let me know if you agree with the choices.
• Chris offered some great information for all of you parents out there with one of our Disney World Quick Tips – Childcare Choices At Disney World. Check it out Moms and Dads you will find it helpful.
• This is a question that gets asked all around the Disney internet world on a regular basis – what about rope drops on Extra Magic Hour days? If you check out Jennifer’s article, Ask A Disney Question – Rope Drop For Extra Magic Hours you will have the answers you need.

That’s it for this week folks. We will return again next week with even more exciting news and even a few opinions and views from our staff. Don’t miss it and be sure to visit the website. As always, enjoy your visit to Walt Disney World.
