We have seen a LOT of Olu Mel at Walt Disney World’s Polynesian Resort lately.
This turtle, who is a friend of Duffy, the Disney Bear, is typically found at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa, in Hawaii.
There’s a special event over at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort today!
You might have heard of Duffy the Disney Bear and his friends; they’re SUPER popular elsewhere in the world. Duffy’s newest friend is a turtle named ‘Olu Mel and he’s cute as can be. Today, ‘Olu Mel has taken over Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort with merch AND treats! Check it out!
‘Olu Mel is an adorable ukulele-playing turtle and the newest addition to the Duffy and Friends gang.
The cuddly cutie was first introduced at Aulani, a Disney Resort and Spa in Hawaii then took a swim over to Shanghai Disneyland Resort. While we spotted some of his merchandise before, Walt Disney World is celebrating his official arrival with special treats and merchandise! We headed over to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort to check out the souvenirs and try the new ‘Olu Mel Soft-Serve!
We just love this time of year: from pumpkin spice everything (YES!) to all the wonderful decorations of Halloweentime, fall is pretty much one of our favorite seasons in the Disney Parks. So yes, we’re sad about Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween party getting canceled, but Halloween at the Disney Parks is NOT canceled completely.Â
We’ve already given you a rundown of what to expect at Walt Disney World this fall, but the Shanghai Disney Resort is also getting in on all the autumnal and Halloween fun. Guests at Shanghai will get to enjoy loads of extra entertainment and special events, all in honor of the spookiest time of the year.
Aloha! If you’re missing your pals from Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa, there are a few new items available on shopDisney that might cheer you up a bit…
In fact, I can’t imagine anyone who wouldn’t be cheered by the sight of a new Duffy and Friends PLUSH Headband featuring none other than Duffy, Gelatoni, ShellieMay, Olu, and StellaLou… YES, all five friends are ready to come along with you, wherever you go! You’ve simply GOT to see it… [Read more…]
We all know about Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, Pluto, and Goofy. But did you know that there are some Disney characters whose popularity RIVALS that of the Mouse himself?
We’re going to chat about eight popular characters you might have never even heard of!
The Festival of the Arts at Epcot has officially begun! Between now and February 24th, 2020, you can immerse yourself in a celebration of culinary, visual, and performing arts!
One of our favorite atmospheric offerings is back in 2020! Last year we shared some hidden characters that you can find throughout World Showcase, and we are so excited to say that the characters are back, with even more fun finds to spot! Some of these characters returned from last year, and others are making an appearance for the first time! Let’s do a little walking tour “around the world” and see who we can find!
Welcome back guest author Zachary Ott with a photo review of the snacks found at Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea!
Tokyo Disneyland and DisneySea offer some fun and unexpected eats for guests! Check out what we uncovered!
This is one of the many Disney-branded vending machines selling an assortment of soda, tea, and juice drinks.
Numerous popcorn carts dot the landscape of both Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea. This particular cart, found outside the Winnie the Pooh themed attraction, sells popcorn flavored with honey and matching popcorn buckets.
The Festival Center, headquarters for the 2012 Epcot Food and Wine Festival, is officially open!
Here are some of the fun souvenirs that you can take home to remember the 2012 Festival long after you’ve sipped and sampled your way around the World!
What are you planning on taking home?
As always, the Festival is offering LOTS of different t-shirts in different styles for men and women. One of the coolest 2012 adds is the “Brews Around the World” line, which features this awesome t-shirt, sweatshirt, glasses, and a bottle opener. (We’ll show you the glasses in just a bit!)
I love the color of this women’s shirt!
And it’s about time we have a “Mission Around the World” shirt, [Read more…]
