#D23Expo Roundup and Recap

As I was exploring all that was going on at the D23 Expo last week, my head was spinning about all of the wonderful and fun posts I’d be able to write!

Then a week passed, and goodness gracious it’s all been covered a few dozen hundred times.

Now if you’ve been around here long I’m all for everyone having a voice, telling stories in their own unique way, etc – and I will still tell my story and our experiences – but I’m not going to compete with the fabulous Disney Parks family of blogs this time….. so here are some specific articles I think you should check out (in addition to my Animation recap, of course 😉)!

Disney Insider provides a great recap of the Parks and Resorts presentation

Oh My Disney shares some intriguing (and sometimes hilarious) “secrets” from Pixar history – and the commenters add even more!

More details were announced about Twenty-Eight & Main, a super classy looking line of clothes for men who love Disney parks but maybe not cartoon shirts. Available August 28!

The show floor exhibit of Shanghai Disneyland blew me away – and Disney Insider gives by far the best recap I’ve seen anywhere.

Disney Insider makes you wish the BluRay release of Inside Out was sooner than it is with a look at the original short, “Riley’s First Date?” (which, by the way, is utterly charming)

And finally, the Disney Parks Blog put together some incredible photo galleries that almost make you feel like you didn’t miss a thing!
