Today we say goodbye to DisneyQuest ... yes, it's still open for awhile. DisneyQuest is finally being put out of it's, we mean closing to make way for some NBA monstrosity, err experience. Looking at the update below perhaps the best use of this space would have been to convert it into a Dave and Busters? Written by Renée Girard Tonight we're at Disney Springs. We aren't dining at the new Planet Hollywood yet, but they have some powerful lights you can see for miles! The Characters in Flight balloon has gotten a really nice makeover. We're going to visit DisneyQuest one last time! Entering the third floor of DisneyQuest, Ventureport, where your adventure begins. We tried to go on Buzz Lightyear Astroblasters. Took forever to load, ride started for .5 seconds and went down and we had to exit. Mighty Ducks Pinball Slam. I guess it's fun? At least it was working. There's a good variety of racing games at Disney Quest. The selection of arcade games is definitely the best part of going to DisneyQuest. The snack bar on the 4th floor of DisneyQuest appears to be closed for good. If you remember the Ride the Comix attraction, which closed some time ago, it's now just a lounge area. Well, they do have Avatar pinball at DisneyQuest. There's always Cyberspace Mountain, if you feel like designing your own coaster and get tossed around. Here's what 5 floors of gaming awesomeness looks like. I wish I could say that I'm sad DisneyQuest is closing but I'm not. Our final visit was disappointing and I need to bathe in hand sanitizer Related Updates:
Today we have our first ever update from one of the Disney Waterparks. These aren't your traditional waterparks, they are really theme parks with waterslides. We love that more companies are seeing the benefit of "water-theme parks" and we hope this trend continues for awhile because we love both. Written by Renée Girard (Click on any of the pictures below for a larger version) Today we are enjoying winter in Florida at Blizzard Beach water park. There's lots to do at Blizzard Beach and no waits today! We conquered everything already, except for Runoff Rapids which is closed. The weather is perfect to float along in Cross Country Creek, or catch some waves in Melt-Away Bay! To save your legs from lots of stairs, the ski lift is a great option, and also gives you nice views of Blizzard Beach. Tike's Peak has fun activities and slides for the kids. At the top of Mt Gushmore, you have 3 amazing slides, Summit Plummet, Slush Gusher and Teamboat Springs. Summit Plummet is one of the tallest and fastest water slides in the world at 120 feet and speeds up to 55 mph. It's quite thrilling! Slush Gusher is slightly shorter but gives you some awesome airtime on those hills! Toboggan Racers takes you down the hill with others in a race to the bottom. Downhill Double Dipper is a ton of fun, except for the long wait to get a tube. You can see all 4 WDW theme parks and more at the top of Mt Gushmore. Here's another view, this time panoramic. One of the best snacks in WDW, mini donuts! Of course Blizzard Beach isn't just your average water park. The theming around the park is adorable! Thanks for following along with us on our day at Disney's Blizzard Beach! Have an ice day! Related Updates:
After a pretty significant delay, Rivers of Light at Disney's Animal Kingdom is now in "Soft Open" mode. The new show is about 15 minutes long and hasn't really had a whole lot of changes from it's previews last year. Below we've got a full video of the new show as well as some pictures. Enjoy!! Written by Renée Girard Surprise visit to Disney's Animal Kingdom tonight! Can you guess why? Rivers of Light begins previews tonight. Show time in 15 minutes! Rivers of Light merchandise available at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Flowers float along the water. It's almost time! Rivers of Light is now shorter than an earlier preview we saw of it. It's a beautiful show and a lovely fit for DAK. Glad to see that Rivers of Light has a more prominent finale now. The technology used in this show is amazing to see. Thanks again to both Renee and Chris for the awesome preview of the newest Disney show. We hope you enjoyed it, and if so, please share!! Related Updates:
