100 DISNEY ADVENTURES OF A LIFETIME: Magical Experiences From Around the World ~ (100 of a Lifetime)

-

In this beautifully illustrated treasury, discover 100 beloved and little-known Disney adventures--from seeing fireworks on a dessert-themed boat ride to dining with your favorite characters to a tour of the Galapagos Islands--that will make for a lifetime of magical, memorable experiences.

Wake up to the sight of giraffes grazing outside your window. Watch the Disneyland fireworks from the Tomorrowland Skyline Lounge, far away from the crowds. Taste your way through six continents at EPCOT’s International Food & Wine Festival. Go on a family journey to Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks with National Geographic.

You can find all of these incredible experiences and more in this awe-inspiring collection of 100 not-to-be-missed adventures that bring the magic of Disney to life.

There’s something for everyone in these pages: milestone moments (your child’s first haircut at Harmony Barber Shop on Main Street, U.S.A.), inside-the-park must-dos (watching the neon lights turn on at dusk at Cars Land), fun excursions (a snorkel in a private saltwater lagoon at Aulani, A Disney Resort & Spa), and VIP extras (a private dinner in Walt Disney’s New Orleans Square apartment). Other adventures include:

· See the dragon under Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland Paris
· Take an exclusive after-hours tour of Egypt’s Luxor Temple
· Celebrate Lunar New Year Disney style
· Meet Jedis and droids aboard Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser
· Visit Shanghai Disneyland’s Zootopia-themed land
· Trek through the Animal Kingdom on a wild safari
· Pan for gold with Donald Duck on a cruise to Alaska
· Fly around the world in 24 days with National Geographic
· And so much more!

Along with beautiful imagery that will shape your Disney wish list, this illuminating guide includes pilgrimages to historic Disney sites, insider stories, and inspiration for planning your next Disney vacation.
All that’s left to do is wish upon a star―and go!

And thus, it was inevitable that upon the 100th Centenary of The Walt Disney Co., that no one but National Geographic Books was going to do their 'official' commemorative book. 

I do not own this title, the image + info. is direct courtesy of Amazon . com .

Also, there was a "deluxe" edition in faux leather, black, w/ a satin ribbon place-marker, embossed foil inlay of the castle + text/fireworks on front cover, plus silver gilded page ends [SEE below image] --->
