Epcot Mission SpaceTip Of The Week

If only some of the members of your traveling party will be experiencing Mission: SPACE, those choosing not to ride can still wait inside the Mission: SPACE pavilion. Those guests can walk around to the side of the building and enter through the exit doors. While you are waiting for the rest of your group, you can enjoy interactive games, send a postcard from space, and little ones can try out the Space Base indoor playground.

Anyone that carries a child, a backpack, or wears a jacket at Disney World knows how easily a MagicBand can become unclasped. That’s where this little beauty comes in! Simply place a Bitbelt on your MagicBand and save yourself the trouble of having to search for a lost band or take the time to get a replacement. Bitbelts come in a dozen different colors and in two sizes – adult and junior. They are only $4.99 each plus they offer discounted pricing when you purchase multiple Bitbelts in one order.

ChristmasTip Of The Week

If you happen to be attending Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, be sure to watch the parade from Main Street, U.S.A. Only at this location will you be able to enjoy the extra magic of falling snow. Even though I see more than enough snow where I live in Colorado, there is something quite special about the beauty of snow in Magic Kingdom!

Here’s the Disney World Enthusiast Weekly Round Up for December 6, 2015!

Latest Disney World Enthusiast Articles

The EmporiumTip Of The Week

To avoid dealing with the massive crowd of people heading for the Magic Kingdom exit after the parade and fireworks, enter the interconnected shops on the right side of Main Street (when facing the train station) and walk from Casey’s Corner all the way through The Emporium without going outside. You’ll exit near the fire station with a straight shot to the gate. This is a much more peaceful option for leaving the park.
