It's the middle of summer and it's time for a big update on what's going on with the parks. We take on three of them, Epcot, Disney's Hollywood Studios, and Disney's Animal Kingdom. We check out what's new in all three of these parks. We take a look at some things that really seem cool, and yet some things are very much out of order. From The Land to Pixar Plaza to Rafiki's Planet Watch, we've got lots to cover. And we examine some really great details that speak to the quality of the Disney theme park experience such as German cuckoo clocks, Moroccan tiled fountains and musicians in Harmabe playing the Kora Tinga Tinga. Join us for this big parks update and insights at Walt Disney World. __________________________________________________ My new book, A Century of Powerful Disney Insights, Volume I 1923-1973, The Walt & Roy Disney Years is available!  Also, check out my two of my other books, The Wonderful World of Customer Service at Disney and Disney, Leadership and You.
