Starting today we’ll be having “12 Days of Christmas”, featuring daily photos from this year’s and past Christmas Seasons.
And there’s no better way to start then with Disney Dreams of Christmas: the spectacular make-over of Disney Dreams! starring Disney Frozen’s Olaf.
Winnie the Pooh and Friends Too was a character show for the little ones based on the adventures of the silly old bear. It was first performed outdoors on Royal Castle Stage and after a hiatus of a few years, the show popped up in Fantasyland Festival Stage (which now houses Meet Mickey Mouse).
For the Christmas Season of 2006, the story of the show was updated with a seasonal make-over.
Check out our updated Christmas Cavalcade album with photos of this year’s version with it’s renewed floats and brand new characters!

“Who robbed the bank?” was a streetmosphere-type show in Frontierland during Disney’s Halloween Festival in 2004. It featured stunt men as bank robbers jumping over the rooftops of Fuente del Oro Restaurante. The show used lots of slapstick humor and didn’t use spoken dialog, instead the main characters held up signs with words. There was lots of running back and forward, falling of the roof tops and ladders tipping over.
A stunt show featuring Zorro took place at the same location in 1993.
Minnie’s Costume Couture is a photo location with Minnie Mouse, designed to resemble a costume workshop. Props like a sewing machine, baskets, mirror, … have all been “toonified”.
It’s located across Casey’s Corner at the old Mickey Mouse photo location, but it’s located on ground level to accommodate wheel chair users as well.
Past weekend the first Halloween decorations appeared in Disneyland Park. Here’s a selection of photos, taken Saturday evening!
High School Musical, the has-been Disney Channel movie, has been expelled from Disney Blockbuster Cafe by one of Marvel’s biggest heroes: Iron Man.
Last week lights when out for the cast of High School Musical when posters, banners and the sporting gear was removed and replaced by imagery of Tony Stark’s alterego.
Here’s a photo tour of how Blockbuster Cafe looked like passed weekend. It’s expected that more theming will appear, especially some sort of props.
It should also be noted that the Bureau Passeport Annuel has been removed from the side room of the restaurant and currently sits empty with some High School Musical posters still up.
Oh, if you don’t remember what his place looked like before… Check out this post on magicforum!

Today Toy Story Playland celebrated its birthday. Exactly three years ago this mini-land with three unique Disney attractions, one shop and lots of themed props were added to the existing Toon Studio zone, on a grassy field next to the Studio Tram Tour Behind the Magic station.
Around 2008 a former French website dedicated to Disneyland Paris broke news that three temporary, unthemed fun fair attractions would be installed in Walt Disney Studios Park to help with the struggling need for additional capacity. This rumor persisted for a long time, but was finally dismissed when plans where revealed to add an entire mini-land dedicated to the world and characters of Pixar’s first animated feature film.
Plans for the land evolved over the course of months, from a flat version build on an oversized board game to the lush version with large bamboos and large Christmas lights. Even the number of attractions was changed as two RC Racer tracks were downgraded to just one and some for Toy Soldier Parachute Drop. A playground was also supposed to be part of the Fort Emery, was dropped as well.
After the land opened in Walt Disney Studios Park it was adapted for Hong Kong Disneyland and there’s a rumor that Shanghai Disneyland might feature their own version as well.
Happy birthday Andy and the Toy Story gang!

Mark Twain, one of the riverboats that circles the rivers of Frontierland in almost every other Magic Kingdom style park, has been out of service in Disneyland Paris since 2011. Right after the refurbishment of the Molly Brown was finished, Mark Twain immediately went to the dry dock and is still remaining there.
Disney Central Plaza forum broke news today that Mark Twain currently is not begin refurbished, instead, according to them, it’s sitting in a corner of Frontierland deterring away.
Therefore, an ode to Mark Twain, captain of the Rivers of the Far West!
