Disney announces new churros, we think

The churro changes will be amazing! Maybe! We didn't catch every detail. UNCLE WALT'S H.Q., SVALBARD -- Our regular readers [up to five now!] know that we here at Uncle Walt's Insider love churros. That delicious cinnamon sugar treat is so perfect that even Philistines whose warped taste buds prefer cream cheese pretzels admit that churros "aren't half bad." Apparently, though, "perfect" can be improved on? Following yesterday's Churro de Mayo celebration, we received a call that shocked us to our core. Disney has found ... Read more

After complaints, Disneyland halts “Wear Walt’s Shoes” tour

The tour was often mistaken for "Walk in Walt's Footsteps." DISNEYLAND, CA -- For years, Disney fans have shelled out extra, above and beyond park admission, to take the "Walk in Walt's Disneyland Footsteps" tour. The 2-3 hour tour gives guests a in-depth look at Walt Disney's influence on the original Magic Kingdom. Even though it is popular, that tour currently is priced at $109 per person. Budget minded guests were often attracted to the cheaper ($89 per person) tour labeled "Wear ... Read more

Marty is at Disneyland this week!

Come and meet your favorite Uncle Walt's Insider author! Unless your favorite isn't Marty. DISNEYLAND, CA -- Uncle Walt's Insider authors tend to be shy and secretive, only appearing in public in disguise. In fact, we rarely leave our Svalbard headquarters unless we're fairly certain we're not currently wanted, and are at least temporarily off of the No-Fly List.
