Today sees the birthday of Animal Kingdom - can you believe it is 20 years young?

For us both, this park gives us upclose experiences with animals we would not normally come across and has a fabulous mix of entertainment and education. Over the years of visiting Animal Kingdom, we both have so many special memories and it is fabulous to see it grow having the addition of a new land. We hope this continues! Why not share yours with us?

On this weeks show, we discuss an array of Disney news items that caught our eye and one of the most delicious was the Disneyland announcement of a doughnut themed to the much beloved Dole Whip. The crowds love it and daily wait in lines of around 30 minutes to take a bite of this $6 snack.

So what makes it so special? It is a regular doughnut filled with pineapple filling, with a pineapple icing topped with toasted marshmallow. For decoration, it is crowned with a paper cocktail umberella. Those who have been fortunate enough to try do say it is an incredibly sweet treat but a delicious one at that. If you haven't tried it, well your luck is currently out as I believe it wont be back out for a few days.

Popcorn bucket and sipper cup frenzy has also hit Disneyland with Pixar Fest seeing the release of a Sulley bucket and Mike sipper. Our lovely friend Tommy Allison (from the Dis Geek Podcast and The Cruise Dudes) kindly picked up a bucket for Michelle.

We also review the Paint The Night dinner package you can get via a reservation at the Carthay Circle Restaurant. for $99 you can sample a four course menu and have a seated view of the parade.

We then move on to answering an array of listener questions - from which Adventures by Disney trip we would take to which park we would visit next and lots more! 

We hope you will take time out to listen then get in touch with your thoughts... as usual you can find us:
