New Haunted Mansion Hitchhiking Ghosts Animated Mirror Effects plus Bonus: Brides Ring & More – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

We paid a visit to the Haunted Mansion today (below, left) as soon as we heard that the new Hitchhiking Ghosts mirror effect was working! Walking through the queue to check out the new tombstone that had been added about a week ago, we were also pointed to another new addition. In reference to the “Bride’s Ring” that used to be in the pavement near the front of the queue (not really the Bride’s Ring, but everyone liked to say it), there is now really a ring – engagement ring – in the pavement of the interactive queue.

Backstage Magic with Mickey Mouse at Town Square Theater – New Meet & Greet at the Magic Kingdom – Photos & Video

Hi everyone!

We went to the Magic Kingdom in hopes of getting into the soft-opening today of the new Backstage Magic with Mickey Mouse meet and greet – and it was open all day!  The newly renamed Town Square Theater (formerly Exposition Hall) is the setting for this new attraction (below, left) that also includes a meet-and-greet with the Disney Princesses. The lobby is beautiful with tile that includes “1901“, the birth year of Walt Disney (below, right).

Disney’s Art of Animation Resort Construction Update – Saratoga Springs Paddock Pool Enhancements – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

We stopped by Disney’s Pop Century Resort yesterday to take a look at the Disney’s Art of Animation construction (below, left). It’s changed a lot since we were last there, with many guest buildings in the process of being built! Also, the years that were part of the Legendary Years resort (which never was completed) are now stripped from the main hall building (below, right). You can still see the outline of the numbers that were removed. Most of the main hall building can’t be seen from the Pop Century anymore due to the construction.

Disney Pixar Cars 2 / Disney’s Winnie The Pooh Displays at Disney’s Hollywood Studios – Photos and Video

Hi everyone!

We had visited Disney’s Hollywood Studios on Wednesday, stopping to check the Animation building to see if the movie artwork display had yet changed – it hadn’t at that time, the artwork was still from the movie Tangled. But apparently that night, the new display went in. We had wondered previously whether it would be for the upcoming film Winnie the Pooh, or would it be for Cars 2? The answer? Both! The display case and maquettes you see as you enter the room is for Winnie the Pooh (shown later in this post) and the opposite side is for Cars 2 (below, left). A fully detailed Lightning McQueen (below, right).

Hi everyone!

The new Haunted Mansion interactive queue has been open sporadically over the last few days – but we kept missing it! Today we braved the heavy crowds again (below, left) to try our luck. We were happy that it was open, we have photos and video of the entire queue. Upon entering the queue, there is a row of busts (below, right). The busts were being detailed yesterday while the queue was closed off to guests.

We visited Epcot yesterday to participate in one of their hands-on seminars that are now held daily through the end of the Flower and Garden Festival.
