News Round Up 2021

I make Mickey shaped pancakes for my kids all the time. Last weekend my 12 year old asked for Mickey shaped eggs. I just showed him this and he was so excited! Does anyone know if this is only at Wilderness Lodge?

That’s the first time I’m seeing the eggs like that! Definitely a cute touch!!! We ate there for breakfast in December and they were just scrambled eggs. Maybe we will start seeing them this way now at other restaurants as well? I hope so!!

That's right! I forgot about that one. There is probably a couple more I'm not thinking of. Either way, I feel like this is another measure that was mostly for appearances. As long as people aren't licking the faucet spouts, I think this change should be fine. (Please don't lick the spouts!)

Yeah, it's weird. Here, different places handled that differently - some had no self-serve, some required a new cup for each visit, and some were just business as usual. I wouldn't think it was that hazardous, but then again, like that cat, I think we all knew that kid in elementary school who would suck directly on the water fountain.

The only ones I can think of off the top of my head are Sunshine Seasons, Electric Umbrella (which is now closed), Restaurantosauras, but there might be others.

And ABC Commissary in HS, I believe?

Disneyland will probably update their policy sooner rather than later but as of now Sea World San Diego is the only theme park that has updated their policy to include fully vaccinated out-of-state visitors.

The whiplash today!! What about people with kids that can't be vaccinated? So many questions. And no answers. But that's how it rolls out there.
