Tasty Tidbits Update - plus a reminder to get your tickets!

Sorry for my recent hiatus.  It's been one of those weeks where work gets in the way of play!  ;-)

Here's a bit of news to digest:

* Disney announced earlier this week that the Main Street Electrical Parade will stay in Florida with no specific end date!  Great news for those of us who just couldn't make it there this summer.

* Via Napoli, the new Italian restaurant at Epcot, is soft opening on August 5.  Have you seen the menu yet?  It's definitely tantalizing.  See AllEarsNet.com and check the menu (with prices) out.

* Disney announced HP is taking on a larger corporate role and there's a new field house at the WWoS involved.

* Have you heard about the Taste of Africa?  It's this new street party at Animal Kingdom that's in a trial run this summer.

The scoop is that there's a lot of entertainment in Harambe with specific food vendors and even some wines you can taste.  You can get a tasting card and try a certain number of wines during the festivities. The pics I've seen so far make it seem like a great family-oriented (Yes, stuff for kids, too!) activity in the latter part of the day at AK.

I'm staying tuned to this one because I hope it's still around OR becomes a permanent fixture in time for my next trip in a few months.

* Get your tickets by tomorrow.  Disney typically raises its ticket prices on the first Sunday in August.  And rumors seem to support that happening again this year.  So if you know you are traveling to WDW and need your tickets still, consider ordering them before Sunday.

* Disney has confirmed that it will not offer Wishes Dessert parties on hard-ticket event nights.  So if you are planning on attending an MNSSHP or an MVMCP, don't expect the Wishes Dessert party to be available.

I'm going to get my act together more here in the next week.

Have a great weekend!
