This time, the theme is Ursula! This tiki mug is only available on Wednesday, October 18th at Trader Sam’s. The mug design is that of Ursula’s cauldron and is purple. – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2023/10/15/you-only-have-one-day-to-get-disneys-new-trader-sams-tiki-mug/ The new area of Downtown Disney which is currently under construction is going to host some new eateries and has a name. Parkside Market will house four new locations for guests to dine while at the resort. Seoul Sister will be a fast-casual restaurant serving Korean Rice bowls with a California twist. Sip & Sonder will serve lattes, as well as fresh treats, frozen drinks and Caribbean-inspired bites. GG’s Chicken Shop will serve a family-friendly menu of chicken sandwiches, salads, and classic dinner table sides. Finally, a second-story bar will serve craft cocktails and mocktails. – https://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2023/10/4-new-dining-options-revealed-for-new-parkside-market-more-coming-to-downtown-disney-district/ A couple new design elements have been added to the new Downtown Disney expansion area. The stage is a unique mid-century modern design and a new sculptural tower crafted by Nikkolas Smith honoring the contributions of mid-20th century architects of color in Southern California. This area should debut later this year. – https://www.micechat.com/344054-disneyland-news-downtown-disney-expansion/ Just last week we talked about the new animatronics that Imaginnering was working on. This week, they were already in the park delighting guests roaming around Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. What makes these so interesting is that there are multiple of them walking around at the same time! They move in a very animated and playful way and remind us of the ducklings that you can see walking around the resort in the spring. – https://www.disneyfoodblog.com/2023/10/12/people-are-loving-disneys-new-wandering-droids-youve-gotta-see-why/ As we spoke about in our last episode, there is a lot going on over at the Pixar Place Hotel. A lot of construction is happening on the exterior of the building, and around the grounds. Inside, there are still areas that have curtains around them to mask some continuing work. – https://dlnewstoday.com/2023/10/photos-wall-e-store-named-staircase-to-the-soul-realm-completed-and-more-construction-updates-from-disneys-pixar-place-hotel/
