This week Mice Chat focuses on our reaction to the new parade “Magic Happens” which premiered at Disneyland park on February 28th. We also touch on what it might mean to cancel your upcoming Disney trip during this unprecedented time of pandemic. In the news, we enjoy a newly released Jungle Cruise trailer, and touch briefly on some of the things the Orlando Theme Parks are doing to promote health and safety at this time. Our big topic for discussion today revolves around the 2020 Flower Garden Festival, including the sights and tastes that can be experienced there.

DISCLAIMER: This podcast was recorded prior to the news that all Disney parks had closed due to the Coronavirus outbreak. We hope you are all staying healthy and safe!

Many things are covered in this week’s Mice Chat, including our brief review of Little Women, a correction regarding last week’s episode, and the opening of the Festival of the Arts in Disney World, and the Rise of the Resistance Ride in Disneyland. We keep the news short this week, touching on the new food to be found at Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland, and the surprise update to the France pavillion in Epcot. Continuing our new discussion series, this week we take a deep dive into the jungles of Adventureland, and what attractions, food, and fun await you there!

We start off the episode this week with an ever-so-slight change to our episode format: from now on Housekeeping will be called Mice Chat! Also, Disneyland gets a little busier as their version of Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance opens. Disneyland is also celebrating the start of this year’s Lunar New Year event, for the Year of the “Mouse”! Lastly, this week we also start a new discussion series, where we will be taking an in-depth look at each land in each of the parks, starting with Main Street, U.S.A!

Hello, and welcome once again to our show! To make up for running over in last week’s episode, this week’s show is a little shorter! Our first bit of news is cause for celebration as a “bad call” mentioned last week gets reversed! Following this, we crack on with some “’tis the season”-al news, as well as briefly mention our F&WF experience in Disneyland. Rounding out the episode, we discuss our experience ‘not too long ago, in the state far far South’ — and how we were over the moon about Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.

Finally, we really want to just say thank you, again, to everyone. It’s wonderful to know that there are so many of you out there who are interested in what we have to say! We hope you enjoy the show!
