Chip & Company Week in Review, January 2, 2012

Welcome back once again to this week’s edition of the Chip & Company Week in Review. From all of us here at Chip & Company, Happy New Year! I hope that you had a safe celebration and that all of your wishes for the coming year come true. Here are the stories that caught our eye last week:

• Have you played the game “Star Wars: The Old Republic” yet? It’s not really my gig, but Aljon told us about the number of people that have been playing the game. It’s some staggering numbers!

• PixieMichele reported to us on Thursday that the Disney Cruise Line has cancelled the Mexican Riviera cruises. No word has been given as to why, so all we have is speculation.
• Do you participate in the Tables In Wonderland special events? If so, you’ll want to take a look at what is in store for January, 2012!
• Did you see that Peter Pan is going to be returning to Neverland in Jake and the Neverland Pirates? He’s scheduled to appear on February 13^th, so make sure you or your children are watching!
• In the Jane By Design Style Challenge, they are up to Round 5 now. Check out what Jackie did for Round 5!
• Did you see that Lady and the Tramp: Diamond Edition will be released for Blu-Ray and DVD on February 7^th? Will you be going out to get it?
• I have heard people say that Disney Cruise Line, at least in the beginning, wasn’t a true cruise line. Looking at this list of all the awards and accolades they have received over the years tells me that this is not the case!
• Did you miss the 2011 Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade? If so, you can check it out online! Just click the link for more information.
• The Wisconsin Badgers and Oregon Ducks – this years participants in the Rose Bowl, continued a tradition began in 1959 by heading out for some fun at Disneyland!
• Lastly, there is finally a schedule for the Art of Animation Resort opening dates! Thanks Chris for posting that for us.

That’s our look at some of the news stories from last week, now let’s take a look at some of the incredible original articles that our writers produce each and every day! Enjoy!

• Mel continues her series on Wheelchair friendly attractions by taking us on a Journey Into Imagination.
• In the Disney World Planning 101 series, Melissa tells us not to forget one important thing: Tipping.
• Lastly, Lee has written a special post this week, one that appeals more to his Canadian side: Disney Vacationing for Canadians.
• Over at My Dreams of Disney, I posted two Dining Reviews, one for Cinderella’s Royal Table, and one for Play ‘n Dine at the Hollywood and Vine.

That’s all we have for you this week. I hope you have a terrific week, and remember to check out Chip & Company often for the latest in Disney News, Views, Giveaways, and more!
