We managed to work in one March visit to Walt Disney World before the Resort was shutdown for the coronavirus pandemic. The high school band from our old hometown in North Carolina was performing on Main Street so we were happy to be there to support them. While there we stayed at the All Star Movies Resort and scored a fast pass for Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway! This is a fantastic new ride housed in the Chinese theater that was formerly home to the Great Movie Ride in the heart of Disney’s Hollywood Studios. It was another great trip and we were lucky to meet up with two different groups of friends who were in town, one of the benefits of being passholders and Floridians! We did not realize at the time that it would end up being our last trip to the most magical place on earth for a while.
We love “The Orange Bird” !

Mickey Mouse “Shorts” photo ops
Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway is terrific, the ride system has a nice little thrill to it and the special
effects sequences are very clever. You really feel like you are in the world of the new Mickey Mouse “Shorts”.
More fun with Mickey Mouse Shorts photo ops
