Mr & Mrs Mickey and Minnie Pillows

Are you looking for a little bit of Disney to add to your home? I’m thinking I might need these simple, but adorable Mr & Mrs Mickey and Minnie Pillows!

These cases are made of quality durable cotton blend linen, and printed with an environmentally friendly printing and dyeing process. The colors are bright, and promise to be fade resistant. These are a great compliment for any couch, or even bedroom accent pillows. The “MR” has Mickey ears over the “R”, and the “Mrs” has ears over the “S” adorned with a signature polka-dotted bow!

Would you add these Mr & Mrs Mickey and Minnie Pillows to your home?

Disneyland

Guardians of the Galaxy Mission: BREAKOUT! just made it’s debut this past May. Well, it’s about to get another mini-makeover for this Halloween season. Guests will now be able to help Rocket save Groot when Guardians of the Galaxy Mission: BREAKOUT! becomes Guardians of the Galaxy Monsters After Dark when the sun goes down at California Adventure – all part of Disneyland’s expansion Halloween time at Disneyland!

Your adventure picks up moments after the events of the popular Guardians of the Galaxy – Mission: BREAKOUT! attraction. The Guardians have successfully escaped The Collector’s Fortress, but they have accidentally left Groot behind! Rocket enlists you to distract the creatures that have been released so he can find and rescue his little buddy. While The Collector’s ever-resourceful assistant, Apheta, may try to assure you that it is all just a momentary setback, we advise you to proceed with caution!

Music continues to be at the heart of the experience, and an all-new song, “Monsters After Dark,” was created especially for this attraction by Tyler Bates, composer of the “Guardians of the Galaxy” films.

Help #SaveGroot at Guardians of the Galaxy – Monsters After Dark, only during Halloween Time at the Disneyland Resort, September 15-October 31

Phantom Disney World Tickets Show Up On My Disney Experience Accounts

Space

If you had a random park ticket show up on your My Disney Experience Account yesterday, you aren’t alone! Several Disney fans hit the message boards with excitement yesterday saying they had Disney World tickets show up that they hadn’t purchased. Tickets showed up in various forms such as some with the Park Hopper option and some without. Some said the tickets would only show in their mobile ap vs. showing on the website. One thing all of the tickets had in common was that they all had an expiration date of December 31, 2018.

Now, I’m here to be the bearer of bad news…. Unfortunately, Mickey wasn’t feeling extra generous yesterday and decided to give away tickets to some of his biggest fans. The mysterious tickets showing up were just due to a system glitch.

Thoughts are that this glitch was due to the recent update to the My Disney Experience app. Read more about the new update and all of the new features offered, HERE.

Disney confirmed that these tickets were not real and were not able to be redeemed. It is unknown if anyone actually tried to redeem their phantom ticket!

As a Travel Agent, I see glitches once in a while on My Disney Experience accounts. I always confirm with Disney directly to make sure everything is accurate when a question arises.

Let’s start planning your visit to Disney World and make sure you don’t have phantom tickets!

Hollywood Studios

As you may have heard, The Great Movie Ride recently closed at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, to make way for the new attraction Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway. With the closing of the original park ride, and end to the summer, comes new guidemaps.

Disney’s Hollywood Studios last changed their maps coming into the summer, the cover theme switched from Star Wars to a picture featuring their popular Toy Story Midway Mania attraction (above left) no doubt to tie in with the addition of The Music of Pixar LIVE! A Symphony of Characters. The limited running summer show is coming to an end, and along with The Great Movie Ride, will not appear in the new park maps. The cover art will keep with the current theme, using another photo of Toy Story Midway Mania (above right.) This is not surprising, considering the announced opening date of Toy Story Land next summer.

The updated park maps will be available Sunday, August 27th

Restroom Renovation Planned For Disney Cruise Line Terminal At Port Canaveral

Disney Cruise Line Matthew

Yesterday the Port Canaveral Board of Commissioners approved the motion to begin a restroom renovation project inside Disney Cruise Line’s Terminal #8. Disney’s senior management had previously brought up concerns regarding the dated restroom facilities which are now about 20 years old.

Four bids for the project were considered and the lowest responsive bidder, The Watauga Company from Titusville, was awarded the contract. The bid to complete the project to “re-Disneyfy” the eight restrooms at cruise terminal 8 is $453,265.00.

Work is expected to be done during days when Disney Cruise Line is not in port and no passengers are in the terminal. Only one restroom will be worked on at a time. Disney did request that every day when work was finished the facility must be “white glove” clean by the time they leave so that the next group of passengers would not be effected.
