The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover reopened today! (April 25, 2021.)
The PeopleMover closed before the pandemic started and for a long time we were all wondering when it would reopen. Disney had delayed the reopening of The PeopleMover a bunch of times.

That is why I was surprised to hear that it is now open. I even watched a live stream in Tomorrowland to make sure I was giving you accurate news.
I am very glad The PeopleMover is back because that is definitely a must do ride while you are in Magic Kingdom!
Have you ever noticed that the Spider-Man movies are the only movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe that aren’t on Disney+?
No Spider-Man movies.
Sony owns the rights to the Spider-Man character and the Spider-Man movies. That is why the Spider-Man movies aren’t on Disney+, but things are changing!
The Walt Disney World Company and Sony Pictures Entertainment have agreed on a multi year content licensing contract. That means Disney can add movies and shows that Sony own to Disney+ and Hulu. This includes movies like The Spider-Man movies, Jumanji, and Hotel Transylvania.

This agreement also includes theater releases from 2022-2026. This means that more titles are coming to Hulu starting in June.
If you watched season one of High School Musical The Musical The Series on Disney+ then you will be excited to know that season two is on its way!
On May 14, 2021 season two of High School Musical The Musical The Series will be on Disney+.
In season two, the East High Wildcats are going to perform Beauty and the Beast and go up against North High to win a student theater competition. There will be new students at East high as well as students from season one and there will of course be a lot of drama!
I am excited for season two because I loved season one of High School Musical The Musical The Series!
The Health Full Trail Presented by AdventHealth is split into three areas. The Play Full Garden, Mind Full Retreat, and Flavor Full Kitchen.

Today I will be sharing with you My Top Five Favorite Snacks In Epcot’s World Showcase.

4. My fourth favorite snack is the Springtime Lemon Cheesecake at Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe in the Norway pavilion. If you love cheesecake like I do then this is the perfect snack for you. If you want to read about my full review of Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe click here!

My favorite snack is also in the France pavilion and it is crepes! You can get the crepes at Crepes de Chefs de France. What I love about these crepes is how they are made right as you order them so the crepes will still be hot when you eat them. You can click here to read my full review!
Earlier this year, it was announced that the Disney Magical Express would no longer be running starting January 1, 2022.
The Magical Express was a transportation service for Disney guests staying at a Disney World Resort that would help guests get to their resort and the Orlando International Airport.
Mears, the company that operated The Magical Express transportation, said they will have their own transportation to and from Disney World. Mears will start using Mears Connect to get Disney World guests to the airport and Disney World resorts in January 2022. Reservations will be required and you can begin booking through Mears Connect starting May 2021.
The Mears Connect website.
If more information is released about this new transportation, I promise to tell you!
Disney World keeps on changing its mask policy and the change this time is a big one!
You can temporarily take off your face masks when you are actively taking outdoor photos starting April 8, 2021. You can temporarily take off your face mask while actively eating, drinking, or taking an outdoor photo but you have to be physically distant from other people. These are the only times you are allowed to take off your face mask.
Right now, you have to keep your mask on if you take an indoor photo and during ride photos.
This is a big update because this is the first time Disney World has added a circumstance where you can temporarily take off your face mask. I will continue to tell you about changes happening around the Disney World parks!
Disney World has many amazing live shows and today I will be sharing with you my favorite ones!
5. My fifth favorite live show is The Jeweled Dragon Acrobats in the China pavilion. This live show is actually performed by kids! This show even made my list of My Top Five Favorite Things To Do In The China Pavilion. Update: Due to the corona virus, The Jeweled Dragon Acrobats is currently closed.
4. My forth favorite live show is Beauty and the Beast Live on Stage in Magic Kingdom. You get a retelling of the Beauty and the Beast story in the form of a musical. Now if this show is outside, why is it in front of The Jeweled Dragon Acrobats in my ranking? Beauty and the Beast Live on Stage has a cover and many fans that will help you stay cool. This show is great and Gaston is really funny! Update: Due to the corona virus, Beauty and the Beast Live on Stage is currently closed.
Gaston being Gaston.
3. My third favorite live show is Frozen Sing Along in Hollywood Studios. Princess Anna is trying to find her sister Queen Elsa and to pass the time the storytellers of Arendelle tell you the Frozen story. I really like all the jokes that the storytellers say and sometimes they even make each other start laughing. Even if you aren’t a fan of the movie Frozen, you will still enjoy this show.
The Arendelle Storytellers and Kristof.
2. My second favorite live show is the Festival of the Lion King show in Animal Kingdom. During this show, you sit in either the elephant, warthog, giraffe, or lion sections. The Festival of the Lion King is celebrating Simba. I really like how much dancing is in this show and you get to hear music from the movie. Update: Due to the corona virus, The Festival of the Lion King is currently closed, but it’s coming back this summer!
My favorite live show in Disney World is the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular! in Hollywood Studios. It is a stunt show with a lot of fire and explosions. During the show they ask for volunteers to help with stunts. You must be 18 or older to participate. There is a big surprise during the show. If you want to know what the surprise is, then you have to watch the show! Update: Due to the corona virus, Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular! is currently closed.
Those are my top five favorite live shows in Disney World. This was a very hard list to make since I like many live shows in Disney World!
Just three weeks ago, Disney announced a new service called MagicMobile. A contactless way to have MagicBand features such as theme park entry on a smart device. Now, MagicMobile is available for Apple devices.

MagicMobile is currently available for iPhones and Apple Watches, but you will soon be able to use it on other smart devices. You can create a MagicMobile pass using The My Disney Experience App. Then, you can add it to the Wallet app on an iPhone or digital wallet on other smart devices. You can customize your pass to make it more you with Disney themed designs. You can store multiple passes on one device.
Now how do you enter the parks with MagicMobile? All you have to do is hold out your iPhone, Apple Watch, or other smart devices near an access point when entering into a Disney park. Just like using a MagicBand. If you have Express Mobile, you don’t even need to unlock your Apple device or open the app.

The My Disney Experience App now has a new feature that lets you automatically link your Disney PhotoPass attraction photos and videos to your profile through your smartphone. You need to confirm your settings before riding at participating attractions. The app also lets you unlock your room door using the digital room key feature if you stay at a Disney Resort.
I’ll keep you updated with news about MagicMobile!
