Mice Chat for this week focuses on some small changes to our upcoming trips. Lots of big news is covered this week, from a surprising film adaptation of a popular Broadway show, as well as some enticing news in the Marvel arena, both on TV and in the parks – which inspires some energized discussion of certain Marvel character’s futures! This week’s discussion brings us a few steps forward in time to the Colonial Era, as we explore the many attractions and food options Liberty Square has to offer – including a spooky favorite ride of Jenn’s, and one of our all-time-favorite never-before-mentioned (joking!) dining options.
