MouseSteps Weekly #329: New Frozen 2 Meet & Greet; Epcot Festival of the Holidays Preview; DAK
135In Mousesteps Weekly #329, we talk about the following topics:
We begin at Epcot, checking out the area that used to be Starbucks, Innoventions and Communicore. There will be a lot of work going on at Epcot over the next two years as the park goes through a transformation!
Next, we visit Anna and Elsa, who are meeting in their new Frozen 2 costumes. Olaf also was meeting that day as a bonus!
We attended a media preview for the Epcot International Festival of the Holidays and took a look at merchandise for both the event and Frozen 2. Thanks to Katiana and Will for the interviews! We met Santa Goofy, Belle in her holiday dress and Mickey and Minnie (only Belle will likely be at Epcot in the costume shown). There was also a presentation with some of the entertainment from around World Showcase, including the Chinese Lion Dancers and Father Christmas.
Next, we rode on the Living with the Land attraction, which received extra holiday lights for 2019! It also is being promoted as an overlay for the first time ever, "Living with the Land: Merry & Bright Nights".
Next, we head to Disney's Wilderness Lodge to check out the new Gingerbread Cabin! There are delicious treats to buy as well.
Our last stop is Disney's Animal Kingdom park for their holidays, including the Merry Menagerie - a wonderful addition to Discovery Island! We head to Dinoland as well, where more lights and more holiday additions can be experienced. And of course, the Tree of Life Awakenings, which added two new shows this year.
Recorded 11/24/19 Featuring Commentary from Denise Preskitt and Jeff Lange.
