« August 2009 | Main | October 2009 » September 12, 2009Star Tours 2 Coming To Disneyland In 2011The long-rumored update to Star Tours is finally official: In the new 3-D version of the venerable simulator ride, visitors board a Starspeeder and join a high-speed pod race through the desert canyons of Tatooine in a scene from the "Star Wars" movie series. Awesome, and about damn time - Star Tours has been long in the tooth for a solid decade now. Disneyland and Disney World get the update first; Disneylands Paris and Tokyo are on hold for a bit.

September 8, 2009Walt Disney Museum To Open Oct 1Looks like the Walt Disney Museum in San Francisco is opening on October 1; the official Web site has been updated, and the LA Times Travel Blog has a great summary of what to expect. Hours are 10AM - 6 PM, Wednesday - Sunday; tickets are $20, and can be bought up to 60 days in advance. I'm so totally checking this out the next time I'm down in SF. Posted by Gavin Shearer.

My good friends Richard and Melissa tied the knot yesterday in a beautiful ceremony at a winery just outside Salem, Oregon. Individually, they're two of my favorite people, but they're unquestionably better together. Long life and great happiness to the new couple! You guys rock! Posted by Gavin Shearer.
