From the moment you feel the sunshine on your face walking down Main Street, venturing on to meet your favorite characters, Disney magic surrounds you everywhere you go. There is a castle straight ahead that always makes you feel like home. Journey through the gates to an enchanted land where flying ships sail to Neverland, cozy rabbit holes lead to wonderland, and a world of laughter that is small, after all. Where you think you have seen everything when you see an elephant fly and a wooden puppet dance with no strings, all it takes is a little pixie dust! When I think of Disneyland I think of the attractions. Over the years we have made countless memories riding rides, remembering special moments like the first ride Carter and Kennedy rode in Disneyland and so much more. We are so excited about the new Disney+ Original Series streaming this Thursday, July 21st titled Behind The Attraction. From Executive Producer Dwayne Johnson and director Brian Volk Weiss, this show will explore how Imagineers filled the Haunted Mansion with 999 happy haunts, how the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror transformed into Guardians of the Galaxy Mission Breakout! From Jungle Cruise to Star Wars Galaxy's Edge, every Disney Park attraction has a magical story and I can't wait to watch! What is your favorite Disney parks attraction?
Thank you Disney+ for this magical package. I will be enjoying the magic of the Disney Parks from my home with these items while watching Behind The Attractions this week. I received a poster, a pin, Maps of the Disney Parks book, candles scented to some of my favorite rides, and some snacks & treats.
