If you drive I4 to Disney World, it's likely the building above is a familiar sight. Gold stars if you've ever thought to yourself Doofenshmirtz is in there building an inator, with Perry the Platypus about to barge in. Just the sight of this building, so unusual and unlike anything else around it has always made me wonder...what is this place? We've driven past it for years. The first times, it was open and you could see inside. Later, the windows were added. Yet...even though it looks complete, this building is completely empty! Perfect for a mad scientist! It's hard to believe, but for over 20 years, this building has been partially built, sold, sat exposed, and finally had windows added...just to still sit empty. Affectionately known to the locals as the I4 Eyesore, the history of this building is pretty interesting. It's actually called the Majesty Building and it's 18 stories tall. Originally, this was meant to be an office building and construction was started in 2021. Over 40 million has been spent on it, and it's still not complete. Evidently there are Facebook pages devoted to it, a ton of memes, and whenever I asked about it, there were a lot of eyerolls. One thing's for sure...you can't convince me otherwise that there's NOT an inator being built inside it. Maybe it's the chicken inator? Maybe Doofenshmirtz has given up on the Tri-State area, and moved here. I'm not sure. I do know, it makes for several interesting moments of ponder as we travel along!

Photo Copyright Disney Apologies for not updating sooner. After avoiding covid for so many years, well, it's paid a call. This will be a short post, but we are all doing well, and trying to recover and get caught up! Are you a pressed penny collector? My boys are! I'm a HUGE fan of the medallions though! It shouldn't be any surprise that Disney will make sure there are special things ONLY available during the 50th! Places are sharing that the final machines are in and ready for your pressed coin purchases! Here's the official Disney Parks Blog Post. Now, just how many pressed pennies are they? Holy mouse, guys! There are SO MANY! Check out these photos! Photo Copyright Disney Photo Copyright Disney Photo Copyright Disney
Which are you most excited about? Those tags are pretty fun looking! Now, these are scattered all throughout Disney property...that means all four parks, the reports, and Disney Springs. Are you the ambitious sort who wants to collect them all? I know myself...I can be the sort who would want them all, but to be honest, the only ones I want are the generic, 50th anniversary ones. I can't wait to get them in a few months! Remember...the machines have changed! Very few actually take your pennies and quarters now. Most are credit card. Sure, that's fast and easy...but is it as much fun? While I'm not sure how many of the old locations have the new machines, here's a fantastic list of locations to get you started! Are you ready for two brand new nighttime spectaculars at Disney World? LIVESTREAMING Wednesday and Thursday, you can check out Epcot's new show, (didn't they just have a new show?!) and Magic Kingdom's new show! (which also isn't very old!) I'm super excited, are you? You can go here to visit the Disney Parks Blog and get the link to watch! Can't watch live or maybe you missed it? No problem! It's recorded, you can watch whenever you want! There's something so special though about watching a Disney livestream, so I'm really looking forward to it tomorrow and Thursday! Are you excited for the holiday specials? I am! Especially if they are DISNEY!
Get ready for this MASSIVE list of Disney specials on ABC! While a few of these I admit, I'm not convinced are Christmassy, it's still nice to have them on! A few of these, like Prep and Landing are holiday traditions in our house! Thursday, November 26 (Thanksgiving)
So what you you think? I'm wondering how they are going to pull off the Christmas day special, but I figure...it's going to be Magical and filled with Pixie Dust! Get ready for more exciting Star Wars releases on Disney Plus this month! From the new Mandalorian docuseries, to the Skywalker Saga, episodes of the final season of Clone Wars and already streaming favorites like the Original Trilogy, documentaries, behind the scenes with the Imagineering Story and so many Clone Wars and other great episodes, this May, you'll be able to get your total fix of everything Star Wars! |
