In this week’s Mice Chat, we give a brief update to our ever-shifting travel plans and give some more updates on our recently viewed Disney Plus shows, including the finale of the High School Musical trilogy! We also share a small bit of news on how Shanghai Disney is ‘testing the waters’ in soft-opening some non-park areas. “Tune in” to our discussion this week as Jenn and I review some of our favorite “AtMousePhere” musical themes that can be heard throughout the Disney parks. (In this instance, AtMousePhere music is any music that you wouldn’t strictly hear while riding a ride, but includes ambient music and queue music.)

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.
