WDW Annual Pass Conversion Has Begun!

Copyright 2013 Walt Disney Company

Effective immediately, all new and renewal Annual Pass purchases will be issued RF-enabled cards. In addition, between March 20 and May 19, all Passholders may visit the Odyssey Center at Epcot to convert their existing theme park Annual Passes to new RF-enabled cards during regular park hours. (I'm getting mine this weekend!) To do so, they must simply bring their current Pass along with a photo ID. This location does not include the conversion of Passes exclusively for Disney Water Parks or DisneyQuest admission. These Passes can be converted at the water parks or DisneyQuest.

The new Pass cards function like the current paper Passes and Passholders can use them to get FASTPASS tickets from the FASTPASS machines in the theme parks, as well as to obtain Passholder benefits (photo ID still required). For those who choose not to convert their paper ticket, existing Passes will still be accepted as valid forms of park entry, FASTPASS ticket redemption and Passholder benefits.

One more thing: As Disney gets closer to rolling out MyMagic+, Passholders will be among the first Guests to receive information about making FastPass+ selections and personalizing and receiving their free MagicBand. To prepare and get familiar with some elements of MyMagic+ already available, Passholders should download the My Disney Experience app for their iPhone, iPad or Android smartphone.

PIXAR Place Expansion Coming Soon??

I'm going against everything I believe in when it comes to rumors, specifically DISNEY rumors, but I find this one way too juicy (and likely accurate) to pass up. According to a few reputable WDW fan websites, it seems that the Studio Backlot Tour is poised to close down at Disney's Hollywood Studios. We know that since Oaken's Trading Post and Frozen Funland are moving out of the Soundstage 1 area, work should soon begin on the rumored (and much needed) third track for Toy Story Mania.  Why close the Backlot Tour? It appears that area is destined to be home to a rather extensive PIXAR Place expansion. According to WDW News Today, we will likely see smaller, flat-rides developed for Toy Story Playland at Disneyland Resort in Paris and Toy Story Land at Hong Kong Disneyland including RC Racer, Slinky Dog Zigzag Spin, and the Toy Soldier Parachute Drop. Attractions in this area don't take us much real estate as these rides would require, so WDW News Today specula...

The Art of Topiary Gardening from Walt Disney World Resort

Topiary gardening, the art of fashioning living plan into ornamental shapes, has been practiced for centuries. Found throughout the gardens of the Walt Disney World Resort are hundreds of topiary figures, ranging from traditional hedges and sheared trees to fanciful shapes and a whole menagerie of "chlorophyll" Disney characters. Types of Topiary Four different types of topiary at the Walt Disney World resort have developed out of our desire to put on an award-winning horticultural show. Free-form topiary and standard form topiary require your imagination and some sharp shears - the other two utilize a frame specially suited to their needs. A lightweight frame is used for shrub topiary, while sphagnum topiary require a much stronger frame specially designed to support the weight of the figure. Standard Form Topiary The world standard is used to describe a plant that is grown to a designated height and then encouraged to bush or form a "head" at t...
