Rivers of Light, Stitch’s Great Escape and Primeval Whirl will not return

Written by James Williams Answers.... that's what every Disney fan in the world has been looking for.  Well more news has been confirmed by Disney and some people are not okay it.  We have learned that Primeval Whirl and Rivers of Light will not be returning at Walt Disney World's Animal Kingdom.  Primeval Whirl has been a seasonal attraction over the last year or so and this has lead many Disney fans wondering "why now?" A lot of guests enjoyed Primeval Whirl and was sad to see it moved to seasonal, but now it has closed forever.  Rivers of Light was just redone not too long ago.  While the original was not a fan favorite, the new show seemed to really be catching guest attention.  During the phased reopening, we knew that shows like this would not be available for a bit but now we have been told that it will not return.   Also, over at Magic Kingdom, we have news that Stitch's Great Escape will also remain closed.  While this is much of a s...

Mask concerns?

Written by James Williams One of the big concerns everyone has had with this years travel to Walt Disney World has been MASKS! It’s the talk of the world right? I’m not going to lie, we have this same concern. Why wouldn’t we? It’s hot and humid in Florida, we aren’t use to having something over our faces in such conditions and we all know kids won’t cooperate!  Well, here’s what we decided to do... TRAIN! We all know how much preparation goes into a Walt Disney World vacation. Most of us don’t walk that much in a single day at home(although we need to get better about this). Our crazy hyperactive boys definitely wont cooperate with masks at all right? I mean, we’ve just kept them at home and took them to certain places(typically outside) so that they’ve been able to stay safe and healthy. My job even allows me to stay away from people so I don’t have to wear a mask.  Well, today we started training with the boys, and I must say, it has went WAY better than expected! As of rig...
