News Round Up 2018

Random thought on Toy Story Land...Since there seems to be a massive Jessie statue figure while riding the Slinky Dog Coaster, does this mean Jessie won't meet in Toy Story Land since there can only be one Jessie? I know she doesn't meet to my knowledge at WDW, but I know she does meet at Disneyland.

I wouldn't expect her to be meeting at all.

Long standing practice of corporations in hopes of burying bad news.

Was already contemplating adding a night to an upcoming stay... I think this dumb magnet might be what seals the deal. Disney doesn't have to do much to convince me. Are these being given out at Flower & Garden?

I want a dumb magnet lol. I was slightly bummed I missed the holiday one, and then last month they gave us 4

Interesting that SDD is 38”. SDMT is also 38”, Barnstormer is 35” and BTMRR is 40”.

I think all along it was thought that SDD would be somewhere between Barnstormer and 7DMT. This sort of confirms that.

Disney emails are not always great. It was just a newsletter type email. Check your junk folder as well.

It's weird. My wife always gets stuff, the magnets, Mickey Monitor, etc. I'm the one who pays the bills, buys the tickets, etc, yet I get bupkiss.

Hate always having to check the site.
