Let's take a look at the genesis of the ultimate icon for Epcot itself, Spaceship Earth. From these early drawings by Herb Ryman and others, we can see exactly how this classic Disney attraction took shape. Join us as we take communication from the Cro-magnon age to the future!

We have a special treat today. Our Disney and More partner, Alain Littaye, has produced a stellar tribute to one of Epcot's classic, yet sadly extinct, attractions - HORIZONS. Join us as we take a trip back in time and visit the future! It's an idea so crazy that it just might work. Photos, video, and commentary about this sorely missed attraction.
Ladies and gentlemen, please take your seats, the Weekend Update is about to depart for your 5 minute tour of theme parks and family attractions all over the world. First stop today is the final installment of the extremely popular "Signs of Tokyo Disneyland" series. Then we visit the interesting NFFC Disney Fan Convention in Anaheim California. From there we travel to the magical Harry Potter exhibit at Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry. Guatemala's Lake Atitlan and its wild pink flamingos will soon be coming into view on your screens. And we finish up our world tour inside Epcot's giant golf ball - Spaceship Earth - with some unbelievable stunt photography that captures details you may never have noticed in person. Sit back, relax, and enjoy your trip!

i've got something fun for you today. From time to time, we'll feature videos of interest from the Disney parks, Universal Studios, and vacation locations everywhere! This week, we have favorite videos from the MiceChat archive. Disneyland MiceChat meets, DiveQuest and Segway tours of Epcot at Walt Disney World, even Goofy playing Dance Dance Revolution at the Starcade in Disneyland. The videos will play back to back (but can take a bit of time to load on some connections) if you'd like to navigate the videos, use the arrows on either side of the window (they pop up when you hover over the sides of the video player). If you have Disney or other fun vacation videos you'd like to share in a future update, please contact Dustysage at dustysage@aol.com. Have a great day everyone! -Dusty
