How about that! A double rainbow appeared over Aulani, a Disney Resort & Spa this week just after we opened the doors to welcome our first guests. Disney Parks & Resort Chairman Tom Staggs helped celebrate the occasion and you can see more images from the day in our original post. Be sure and check the Disney Parks Blog as we prepare for its official Grand Opening celebration in September.

And while we’re talking amazing sights, did you see this week’s renderings of New Fantasyland at Magic Kingdom Park?

Now, here’s a look at some other stories we worked on this week:

@ Robin – i am sure it is Rootbeer in the mugs to make it feel like a tavern :> there is no alcohol at MK and from what little i have about the addition of this spot to relax there will be none added with the new attractions.
i love all the renderings and hope i am able to make it back in 2013 to enjoy the new sites!!
I’m a huge Disney fan and annual pass holder but i’m a little concerned about the 4th picture of the new fantasy at MK. Are the kids enjoying a turkey leg and beer? I’m assuming not because it’s Disney but it sure doesn’t look right.
I still love Disney though!
Most excited for the Little Mermaid ride.
nice double rainbow
