BDH #51 - Playhouse Disney

After a recent trip to the Disneyland Resort, I returned home with a little motivation (and a promise made to a friend) to put this new episode together. I video taped this evening at ElecTRONica during a trip last October. Since Disney has announced that they will be replacing ElecTRONica with Mad T Party later this year, I thought now was a good time to release this video with the hope that it would get people to experiance ElecTRONica before it's gone. Enjoy!

The Little Mermaid, Ariel's Undersea Adventure finally opened in early summer to huge fanfair. The attraction is very well done and uses many new technologys. This episode takes you on a complete ridethrough and gives you a taste of what to expect the next time you visit Disney California Adventure Park. I also wanted to let everyone who purchased the BDH Vidcast App know that there is a new update. This update fixes the playback issues people were having and also includes some great new features. Please update your App ASAP if you haven't already.

This episode takes us to Disney's California Adventure and a visit to Playhouse Disney - Live on Stage. On April 11, 2003, the former ABC Soup Opera Bistro reopened as Playhouse Disney - Live on Stage! Kids love this interactive show but there are many adults who get into the spirit as well. Enjoy!

Welcome to the BDH Episode 50! FANTASYLAND...I've been getting many requests for videos of the Fantasyland attractions. I had been planning to create this special 50th for a long time. I was holding off putting out individual videos so that I could include them in this 50th episode. Enjoy! Please make sure to leave a review on iTunes and check out my BDH iPhone App. Thanks!
