Universal Studios Orlando reopens to passholders

Universal Studios Orlando Reopens

Universal Studios Orlando reopens to Annual Passholders today. We were lucky enough to get a time to come in and enjoy the parks after being closed since March!

Other than a line at the temperature check, crowds have been rather light at the theme park.

They have special areas where you can remove your face mask and take a little breather.

They are even selling PRIDE and Universal Studios Face Masks for guests without one.

Susan is off to Islands of Adventure first so she can visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter with little to no wait!

There was hardly anyone around for Triwizard Spirit Rally!

It looks like many Annual Passholders have the same idea as Hogsmeade is quite crowded right now.

Stay tuned for the New Baby Velociraptor Introduced at Universal Studios Orlando’s Raptor Encounter!

Here is a live look at Universal Studios Orlando from the sky!

Fun New Disney Monorail PEZ Dispenser Display Now at Disney Springs

Disney character PEZ dispensers are always so much fun to get! The fun has gotten even better though, because now we have the most perfect way to display them with the Disney Monorail PEZ Dispenser Display! That’s right Disney has launched an adorable Monorail inspired display for our favorite Disney character PEZ Dispensers.

Disney Monorail PEZ Dispenser

The monorail display looks like the replica of a monorail car, but with square insets that are the perfect size for sliding in your favorite PEZ dispensers. Once nestled in the monorail, it looks like the characters are passengers going for a ride around the Disney Parks!

Hmmm which character dispensers will be our first passengers?

The display comes in red or blue, and retails for $14.99!

A post shared by Chip and Co (@chipandco) on Jun 3, 2020 at 4:40am PDT

You can find the very cool new Disney Monorail PEZ Dispenser display now at World of Disney in Disney Springs! These were going very fast too, even with the reduced amount of people visiting Springs.

What do you think of this whimsical new way to display your Disney Character PEZ dispensers?

Special thanks to our friend Susan for the great photos!
