A parent’s guide to Disney’s Pandora – The World of Avatar

Posted on by AllEars
Beginning May 27, families will be able to visit Pandora at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Based on the planet in the movie "Avatar," this new section of the theme park has been in the works for six years. Blogger Kristin Ford was able to visit Pandora twice over the weekend during a local media preview and an annual passholder day, and it definitely lived up to the hype. It really did feel like I was transported to another world! Guests not familiar with the movie or the construction might have some questions, though, so here is a description of what parents will encounter.

You CAN make Disney’s Mickey waffles at home

Posted on by AllEars
You can buy the actual waffle mix that is used at Walt Disney World for its delicious Mickey waffles: Carbon's Golden Malted Pancake and Waffle Flour.
