It’s one of Walt Disney World’s oldest continuous performances and you might have never even seen it. This week’s Word of the Week is all about the Electrical Water Pageant!

The Electrical Water Pageant has been entertaining guests since the month Walt Disney World opened to the public. If it ain’t “Baroque”, don’t fix it!

Walt Disney once said, “You can design and create and build the most wonderful place in the world. But it takes people to make that dream a reality.” That couldn’t be more true. This week I wanted to put the focus on the Disney Cast Members with the Word of the Week – Disney Difference.

 

What separates Disney’s service from everyone else’s? The cast members. This week I’ll share 4 phenomenal examples of Cast Member Magic!

 

Karrie’s son, Adam, and the awesome cast member he wasn’t aware of!

 

Adam being entertained by another fantastic cast member! Thank you, Karrie, for the pictures and your story!

As Walt Disney always had hoped, Disneyland has never been completed. It has changed and evolved over the decades and is a very different park than the one Walt opened in 1955. But much of his park is still there. We’ll talk all about it on Episode 84: Walt’s Disneyland With Jim Denney.

Part 2 – Walk where Walt walked. Touch what Walt touched. Disneyland has Walt Disney’s fingerprints (literally) all over it…if you know where to look.

As the icon of Magic Kingdom, Cinderella Castle rises 183 feet from the ground (or is it 189 feet?) right in the middle of the park. This week, I’ll tell you all about the castle’s history and more on the Word of the Week – Cinderella Castle.

Did you know that (allegedly) a woman once attempted to sue Walt Disney World because a Cinderella Castle brick fell onto her head?

For years, Walt Disney World was billed as the Vacation Capital of the World. WDW is a true place where the young and young at heart could go to enjoy being a kid. This week we wanted to help those who are feeling a little older feel young again with Episode 83: How To Feel Like A Kid Again in WDW.

“That’s the real trouble with the world. Too many people grow up. They forget. They don’t remember what it’s like to be 12 years old.” We’ll help you remember!

Do you remember Mickey’s Birthdayland? I never had the opportunity to check it out in person, but still remember a lot of what was left in Mickey’s Toontown Fair when I finally got there. I’ll tell you all about it on this weeks’ Word of the Week – Birthdayland.

If you don’t remember Mickey’s Birthdayland in Magic Kingdom, you’re not alone! Take a trip back in time with me as I tell you all about it!

I’ve been trying to get Disney Legend Bob Gurr on the show for over a year now. Who knew that the best way to get him on was to just email him and ask?! Check out Episode 82: Disney Legend Bob Gurr.

It’s been said that if it’s on wheels and it’s in Disneyland, Bob Gurr built it. Bob’s sheer brilliance really comes through as we talk all things Disney this week!

Walt Disney World is always in a state of change. Walt Disney wanted his theme parks to never be completed. They were to be living, breathing things that Walt could change around and evolve. But what happens when one of those things closes and is never replaced? The building(s) still stand, but they sit, abandoned for years. I’m tackling some abandoned locations on this week’s Word of the Week – Abandoned.

 

WDW, like Disneyland, was never meant to be a museum. Things are in a constant state of change. But what about those things that close and sit for decades…Abandoned?
