D23: The Official Disney Fan Club has announced its slate of special events for 2014 and perhaps one of the biggest events for this year is Destination D: Attraction Rewind Presented by H2O Plus.

This event is scheduled for July 26-27 at the Walt Disney World Resort and will bring together Disney archivists, Imagineers, and Legends to celebrate favorite Disney attractions of yesteryear.

Fans will have a chance to see concept art and images from the attractions, vintage video, and more.

Last week we looked at the top five "must-do" items for Epcot and today we're taking a Friendship Boat ride over to Disney's Hollywood Studios to talk about what can't be missed at the park that is celebrating a special anniversary this year.

What better way to celebrate true love than with Valentine Kisses from a couple whose love has stood the test of time. This cute Mickey and Minnie Mouse Smack!

There are still a couple of months until the 'Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade' debuts at the Magic Kingdom, and Disney recently announced a new float for the parade.

The float will represent Sleeping Beauty's Maleficent as a 35-foot-long, 26-foot high Steampunk-inspired dragon.

The Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade is celebration of Fantasyland and each float will be created so that it appears as though the characters featured on the floats had a hand in creating them.

I love to drink and snack around World Showcase any time of the year, and our friends over at the Disney Food Blog recently posted a story that has me excited for my next trip. A wonderful new little sweet treat to grab in in Italy at the Via Napoli donkey cart!

Today we will explore the evolution of Walt Disney World admission media over the past four and a half decades. To help us better understand how ticket media had changed; let's experiment with our own little "Carousel" of ticket "Progress". We'll follow a family of four (mom, dad, sister aged 14, brother aged 7) on their quest to go to the Magic Kingdom for one day to visit some of their favorite attractions at various points in Disney history.

The Crashers are coming to the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival.

Fans of HGTV and the DIY Network know that "The Crashers" are the expert designers and contractors who seek out people at home improvement stores who need renovation help. Once The Crashers find someone in need of help they spend just three days making over the person's bathroom, kitchen, or other area that needs renovation.

The Muppets are coming to the Epcot International Flower and Garden Festival!

Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy will be making their debut in a Muppet-themed topiary located in World Showcase when the Flower and Garden Festival returns to Epcot on March 5. The main entrance topiary display will feature Goofy, Donald Duck, and Daisy Duck taking part in a butterfly hunt as they celebrate the return of spring.

Disney fans frequently rave about the ambiance and romance of Walt Disney World's Port Orleans French Quarter resort, but just down the river at its sister resort, Disney's Port Orleans Riverside has all the charm and elegance of the antebellum South. From the white columned mansions of Magnolia Bend to the charming shacks of Alligator Bayou guests feel the warm embrace of Southern hospitality.

The Walt Disney Studios has earned eight Academy Award nominations including Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song.

Early Oscar favorites Tom Hanks and Emma Thompson did not receive nominations for their roles at Walt Disney and P.L. Travers, and Saving Mr. Banks was shut out of the Best Picture category. The film did get nominated for Best Original Score.
