The Wilderness Explorers location at Dinoland, USA in Disney’s Animal Kingdom park is relocating. The current location is in between Dino-Bite Snacks and The Boneyard. The new home for this stop on the Wilderness Explorers challenge will be near the queue for DINOSAUR. The former site is going to be the new home of Donald’s Dino-Bash! coming to Animal Kingdom May 25, 2018.

Inspired by Russell from the Pixar movie Up!, the Wilderness Explorers challenge gives guests of all ages a chance to complete missions through dozens of self-guided activities. The missions take place in different locations throughout the Animal Kingdom park. Guests receive a Wilderness Explorer field guide to collect their badges in once they complete a challenge. Badges include the Veterinary Badge (earned while helping diagnose a sea turtle), the Dinosaur Badge (includes dinosaur fossils) and the Animal Find Badge (where guests can check off animals as they see them).

The Wilderness Explorers headquarters is located on the bridge between the Oasis and Discovery Island. Field guides can be picked up at this location or any others throughout the park.

Disney World to Implement New and More Convenient Lost and Found Procedures Starting May 21st

Disney World to Implement New and More Convenient Lost and Found Procedures Starting May 21st

From Magic Bands to an incredible souvenir that you just picked up, no one likes losing items at Walt Disney World.  However, to minimize the stress when this happens, Disney World will implement a new Lost and Found system starting on May 21st that will make it easier than ever to be reunited with your lost belongings.

Later this month, visitors will be able to flag up any lost items by visiting Disneyworld.com/lostandfound.  

Once the system is up and running, guests will be able to log any missing items and Disney Cast Members will start their search.  This means that locating something misplaced at Walt Disney World doesn’t have to eat into valuable theme park time.

This new Lost and Found log in system will be available across Walt Disney World including the theme parks, water parks, Disney Springs as well as ESPN Wide World of Sports.  For lost items at one of Disney’s onsite resorts, you should continue to reach out to the front desk for assistance.

Guests visiting the parks before May 21st that need to track down a lost item will need to follow the original procedures which vary by park and location and can be found here.

Readers are encouraged to keep following along with Chip and Co for the latest updates regarding the implementation of the new Lost & Found system.

Disney Announced Digital Food Channel Disney Eats

Digital Food Channel Disney Eats

Disney is taking on food! Disney announced a digital food channel Disney Eats at its annual NewFront, a presentation for advertisers of upcoming video content, last week.  This new online digital channel will feature culinary shows and products aimed at families and also includes an editorial site.

Think YouTube! Disney is moving in this to target young families who are part of a generation that grew up watching videos on platforms like YouTube. These parents are now looking for content for their children on online mediums and Disney plans to deliver.

You can check out a short video here:


Some of the shows planned for Disney Eats include seasons of “Kitchen Little,” where kids will be featured working with celebrity chefs, and “Tiny Kitchen,” with chefs creating small replicas of Disney food. “Kitchen Little” and “Tiny Kitchen”  were co-created with global entertainment company Tastemade.

Disney Eats will be part of the Disney Digital Network. Disney Digital Network was formerly know as  Maker Studios. Disney acquired it in 2014 for $500 million.

According to Disney, the new online food channel will keep the same health standards that the company previously imposed on advertisers. Back in 2012 Disney made efforts to ensure that food products advertised on their networks met specific nutritional standards.

Tastemade will have another series on the channel, a food science series called “Must Be Science.”  There will also be shows with Disney online influencers that will be announced at a later date.

All programs on this channel will be aimed at parents cooking with kids, or “co-cooking.”  When it comes to additional sources of revenue, Disney will sell branded products, including kitchen utensils, bakeware and cookbooks.

You can visit the new website here.

“Together Forever” Comes To Life Through Projections On Iconic Disneyland Park Locations

Together Forever

“Together Forever – A Pixar Nighttime Spectacular” is lighting up the evening skies above Disneyland park during the first-ever Pixar Fest. Buzz Lightyear, more than 300 green Space Aliens, 10-foot-tall “Coco” characters from the Land of the Dead and many more Pixar favorites star in the newest fireworks show.

“Together Forever” Comes To Life Through Projections On Iconic Disneyland Park Locations

“Together Forever” connects guests to beloved Pixar stories as it lights up the sky over Disneyland Park. It comes to life with pyrotechnics, special effects, a new musical score and projections on iconic park locations. The grand tradition of Tinker Bell flying over Sleeping Beauty Castle also gets a Pixar twist, with a special flyover by Buzz Lightyear.

One unique aspect is that you can experience “Together Forever” from different viewing areas throughout Disneyland park. Watch from Sleeping Beauty Castle, ‘it’s a small world,’ Rivers of America or Main Street, U.S.A. for a different perspective of the multimedia spectacular!

YouTube player

“Together Forever” Fun Facts:

  • “Together Forever” celebrates the everlasting bonds of friendship between guests, as well as the friendships of beloved Pixar characters from all 19 Disney•Pixar films.
  • “Together Forever” opens with Buzz Lightyear, who flies 100 feet in the air above Sleeping Beauty Castle on a flight path that is 350 feet long.
  • As Buzz Lightyear takes flight, he opens the show with a new line of diaologue: “To friendship…and beyond!”
  • The fireworks for “Together Forever” were specifically developed and designed to enhance the projected images within the show and to match Pixar Animations Studios’ color palette.
  • “Together Forever” contains more than 900 separate fireworks effects, digitally controlled within 1/30 of a second.
  • An all-new musical score was recorded for “Together Forever.” The orchestra was composed of 101 musicians and 20 vocalists. The score features popular songs from Pixar films, in addition to iconic instrumental themes.
  • “You’ve Got a Friend in Me,” the hit song by Randy Newman from Disney•Pixar’s “Toy Story,” serves as the musical thread for the show. Guests will be inspired to sing along as this anthem becomes the rousing finale. This version of the song is a custom arrangement made specifically for “Together Forever.”
  • On Main Street, U.S.A., mapped projections bring the storytelling of “Together Forever” to life. The same technology is used for projections on Sleeping Beauty Castle and the façade of the “it’s a small world” attraction.
  • Each of the four viewing areas in the park – Main Street, U.S.A., Sleeping Beauty Castle, Rivers of America and “it’s a small world” – feature custom effects that create a unique experience for guests at each location.
  • With the use of projection mapping, more than 300 Space Aliens from “Toy Story” appear on the façade of the buildings on Main Street, U.S.A., and Sleeping Beauty Castle during their moment in “Together Forever.” The adorable green Space Aliens also appear on the façade of the “it’s a small world” attraction.
  • Multiple laser beams project down Main Street, U.S.A., in the scene where the Incredibles battle the Omnidroid at Sleeping Beauty Castle. Lasers are also used at the Rivers of America viewing location.
  • The story heats up during a pivotal scene from “Toy Story 3,” as Sleeping Beauty Castle is flanked by six shooting flames that reach up to 30 feet in the air.
  • During the “Coco” adventure, 10 townspeople from the Land of the Dead appear on the rooftops of Main Street, U.S.A. Each of these characters stretches more than 10 feet tall and they join the animated mariachi and folklórico dancers projected on Main Street U.S.A., bringing to life a colorful fiesta.
  • The voice of Anthony Gonzalez, who played the lead role of Miguel in Disney•Pixar’s “Coco,” can be heard singing “The World Es Mi Familia” during the “Coco” adventure of “Together Forever.”
  • “The World Es Mi Familia” features authentic Mexican singers and musicians who play traditional mariachi instruments like the vihuela, guitar, and guitarrón.
  • Several objects have flown above Sleeping Beauty Castle in past nighttime spectaculars, and the largest one ever is in “Together Forever” – Carl Fredricksen’s House from Disney•Pixar’s film, “Up.”
  • Guests can look out for the Pizza Planet truck in “Together Forever.” Seen in “Toy Story,” the Pizza Planet truck also appears as an Easter Eggs hidden in most Pixar films.
