This week's episode is a follow up to the last episode. Last episode we took a train to Rafiki's Planet watch and now we talk the train back from Rafiki's Planet Watch.

This week we travel on the train out to Rafiki's Planet Watch. It is a great way to sit down and relax from the hectic work of park touring. It is also a great way to see "behind the scenes" at where the animals are housed and taken care of.

This week we show you what happens when there is a slight "mishap" aboard the horse-drawn trolley at the Magic Kingdom. It seems one of the Magic Kingdom Main Street residence was dragging their toy dogs alongside the trolley when it was caught under the wheel of the trolley. The Dapper Dans as well as CM Justin were there to make sure everything was alright.

This week we take a ride on the double-decker omnibus at the Magic Kingdom. Sure it is quicker to walk down Main Street and head towards Space Mountain (when it is open) however if you don't care about getting in the most rides and attractions and just want to experience the park as a whole then I highly recommend the transportation that goes up and down Main Street.

This week is a live demonstration of glass blowing at the Crystal Arts Shop on Main Street USA. Multiple times during the day a CM will sit down and actually work on the crystal pieces that are sold in the store. This is a great way to beat the heat and crowds or to kill a little time. Times are not set for when they will be working, but take a stroll into the shop and I am sure you will be able to catch them easily.

This week is a clip from the show Voyage of the Little Mermaid at Disney's Hollywood Studios. This is where Ariel is singing "Part of Your World". I would post the entire show, but unfortunately shortly after this song there were technical difficulties and the rest of the show was canceled.

This week we take you on a tour of the Maharajah Jungle Trek in Asia at the Animal Kingdom. Though a walking tour, this attraction is very entertaining with great views of gibbons, bats and tigers just to name a few. It is suggested that you get your FP to Kali River Rapids and then take a stroll on the Jungle Trek.

This week we experience the Kim Possible World Showcase Adventure. We had never experienced it so the KP CM gave us China as it was one of the "better ones". I do have to agree, it was really cool. Now this episode is edited to purposefully leave out about half of this missions and also shot so you don't exactly know where the missions spots are (it also helped it was shot at night) however, if you do not want to be spoiled at all skip this episode.

This week is a very short episode. We have seen Wishes from the park, but here is an alternate view from the monorail. Trying to beat the crowds from the park I hopped on the monorail and it was in time to watch some of Wishes from the monorail and then also see the ending at the TTC (which by the way has the music playing, great little tip if you are parked and want to beat crowds out, head over to the TTC before the start of Wishes and you will have a great view with less crowds).

This week we have part two of the Flower and Garden Festival that was at the park from March 18 to May 31. Next year the Flower and Garden Festival will be held March 3 - May 16, 2010.

This week I post clips from EPCOT's Flower and Garden Festival that was at the park from March 18 to May 31. Originally I was going to post this as the first (maybe second) episodes in June, but real life got in the way. This is the first in a two parter, with the second part coming next week. Also this episode did not touch on all EPCOT has to offer during the Flower and Garden Festival. Next year the Flower and Garden Festival will be held March 3 - May 16, 2010.

This week we travel to EPCOT for a viewing of Illuminations: Reflection of Earth. We stood between the Japanese and American Pavilions and as you can see got an amazing shot from when the globe started to come out into the World Showcase Lagoon. This performance of ROE is different than the typical shows. Can you figure out how?

This week we are still keeping it in the Magic Kingdom. We head on over to the Swiss Family Treehouse which an easily overlooked/passed by attraction. With that said though, I don't blame anyone as it is a walking tour and it is up and down stairs. Who wants to walk up and down stairs when you are already tired from running around the parks? In addition to that, there is nothing spectacular or jaw dropping to see. So enjoy as I do all the walking for you and you can sit back in your big...

This week we are at the Magic Kingdom to see a performance by the Main Street Philharmonic. This 12 piece brass and percussion plays classic ragtime tunes such as "Rag Time Band". They also perform Disney classics. In addition to shows on Main Street, the Philharmonic participate in the Daily Parade as well as the Flag Ceremony. There are many chances for you to run into them during the day and each performance within the day is different than the last.

This week we post our 50th episode! In order to celebrate this episode is like Episode 1, a performance by the Voices of Liberty. Even though it is a performance by the Voices of Liberty it is a different set with new songs. Enjoy.

This week we are over in Mexico at World Showcase in EPCOT to see a performance by Mariachi Cobre. Mariachi Cobre is a 12 piece band with violins, guitars, trumpets and more. The show times are on the times guide and they perform out front of the pavilion. If the weather is bad, they can be found inside.

This week we head over to Frontierland for The Country Bear Jamboree. This is recently after the refurbishment so the audio animatronics got their spit cleaning and the audio system was updated so you could actually tell what the bears are singing.

This week we head over to the Living Seas, well The Seas with Nemo and Friends pavilion over at EPCOT to have a chat with Crush. Turtle Talk with Crush is one of my favorite attractions due to the magic and technology behind the attraction. Also due to the interaction aspect of the attraction each show is new and different then the last.

This week is a follow up of Episode 31. In that episode we took a tour of Mickey's house. Now it is time to tour his neighbor, Minnie's house. Mickey's house has a ton of details and I feel Minnie's has even more. Take time to look and touch everything. Minnie's house does not have as much flow as Mickey's so it may seem crowded and you may have to stop and wait, especially to get into the kitchen, but there is plenty to take in while you are waiting.

This week we travel back over to EPCOT and head into Inventions for "What's Your Problem?" which is a show that is every 20 minutes. Many Adventures Club members are said to host this show, will we see them? Let's check it out and see...

This week we feature everyone's favorite attraction. Well maybe not everyone's favorite attraction but at least we all love the music and song from the attraction. I hope you hum the theme to "It's a Small World" for the next few days.

This week we are back in the Magic Kingdom for a basic ride through of Snow White's Scary Adventure. Due to it being a dark ride, some scenes may be tough to see, but it is all there, audio and all.

This week we are back at the Magic Kingdom for a fun excursion on the World Famous Jungle Cruise. What is that you say? We have already been on the Jungle Cruise? This is true, however this time we are on the Jungle Cruise at night. One of the best things about the Disney parks is that at night it is a brand new park and adventure, so here we enjoy a different ride on the Jungle Cruise at night.
