Looking at the D23 website (again, jeez I hooked!) I saw this intriguing article. It seems Disney and Cat Cora are going to make a restraunt! But for what park you say?  Disney’s BoardWalk Resort sadly. The restraunt will be called Kouzzina by Cat Cora and will be Mediterranean-style cuisine. Sounds nummy! For more information click on this link. *click*

On the D23 website they had this fact. Thought it was interesting….

Pirates of the Caribbean Opens at Disneyland

The world’s most famous “bateau” ride — the inspiration behind one of the most successful trilogy of films ever made (with a fourth installment on the way!) — received exactly the kind of action-packed opening it deserved when Pirates of the Caribbean opened 42 years ago today at Disneyland. A marauding group of pirates and scallywags climbed aboard the Columbia, disembarked at New Orleans Square, overtook city guards and battered their way into the locked doors of the attraction! Once inside, they saw what has charmed the world ever since — the most advanced Audio-Animatronics® figures ever to populate one of Disney’s most timeless adventures. Although Walt didn’t live to see the beloved attraction in operation, he was alive when the Blue Bayou was completed; however, he refused to open the restaurant until work on the attraction was finished.

Things to look out for:

• Celebrate: A Street Party Debuts
  March 27
  Disneyland Park

• Mickey’s Fun Wheel/Games of the Boardwalk Opens
  April 24
  Disney’s California Adventure

• Golden Dream, one of the original attractions at Disney’s California Adventure, is closing to make way for a brand-new attraction themed after The Little Mermaid. The final showing will take place at a special event for Cast Members on March 22.

• Celebration Roundup & BBQ is set to open April 2! Guests can book priority seating now.

• Beginning yesterday, Guests can book reservations for Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique at Disneyland. The boutique, which transforms little girls into princesses and boys into knights, will be nestled inside Fantasyland next to Sleeping Beauty Castle and is set to open April 17.

OH MY GOSH. They are making a High School Musical 4!?! That is insane. It is crazy that they can keep fans that long. A rumor has said that the new movie will be about how “East High meets West in a classic love triangle set against the cross-town school rivalry between the East High Wildcats and West High Knights in the upcoming High School Musical 4.”

Wow.

The Opera House has gone down on Main Street U.S.A. for some major refurbishment. Previously hosting the ‘Disneyland: The First 50 Magical Years’ show, it will soon be hosting Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln, which will open later this year. Meaning- Lincoln’s back! I have never seen the show personally myself, so I am excited! The attraction will open later this year in celebration of the 200th anniversary year of Abraham Lincoln’s birth.

Also, since The Disney Gallery was moved, when the Disneyland Dream Suite was built, The Disney Gallery will know be put on Main Street U.S.A.. The Disney Gallery houses Disney artwork and collectibles from The Walt Disney Company. It is a frequently changing exhibit, and often includes never-before-displayed art. The gallery’s new home will be in the Bank of Main Street building, located next  to the Main Street Opera House which is currently used to buy the Annual Passports for the parks. The Bank will continue to operate as an Annual Passport center until mid-summer-ish. After that,  Annual Passport processing will move to the Plaza Pavilion, near the entrance to Adventureland.

Whoo- that’s a lot of stuff to cover.

I saw this on TheDisneyBlog and I thought it was so cool, I just had to try it.  So here is the question:

If you could have Disney Imagineers theme your house/apartment to one Disney attraction (ala Extreme Makeover) which would you choose?

I really need your imput on this so please! comment, comment, comment!! I will try to get the results as soon as enough people come through. (I hope)

To celebrate the 70th Anniversary of Pinocchio,  LA puppetry artist Bob Baker, has created the little guy out of solid platinum. The statue will be on display at the Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta, GA for the next two months. What a great way to celebrate such a memorable movie!? The movie is now on sale on DVD, and can be purchased in Platinum Edition.
