The Day Parkeology Ran Out of Ideas: Fun Food at Tokyo Disney Sea

Well maybe it’s not that dire, but we have always tried to keep a unique angle on Disney around here. That’s not to say that we don’t love what the many (many, many) other Disney sites provide. In fact we can’t get enough of it. But lets be honest… the world does not need more […]

Parkeology on the Radio

Just  quick post with a link to today’s radio interview covering WDW46. We always enjoy talking about the Official Parkeology WDW46 Challenge and how many others have now attempted to complete it as well. Mike Keller from The WEEU Morning Show did a great job covering it. Check out the complete interview here: Watch this […]

Listen and You’ll Hear a Very Special Park Valentine

Theirs was a love that stood the tests of time… In honor of Valentine’s Day weekend, it is only fitting that we honor the greatest love story in theme park history. It’s the story of one man’s passion—dare I say hunger—for his most special love. Never before or since have the parks dared to express such […]

Disney Animated Movies Canon – The Rise of Disneyland

Each of the 54 canonical Disney Animated Features has a connection to the theme parks. And we’ll find them all or die trying. Today we take a look at the movies of the 1950s and 60s. Other time periods are labeled “The Golden Age of Disney Animation,” but the films of this era are so brilliant, it’s no […]

Team Parkeology Media Blitz!

Thanksgiving is of course a wonderful time to give thanks and celebrate all the good things that have happened in the past year. Around Parkeology nothing has been bigger than the first ever successful running of WDW46.  We have been taken aback by all the coverage we have received; from articles in the Orlando Sentinel and […]

There may be some even […]

WDW46: Redemption City

I should have known what was in store when Ted’s flight from Chicago was delayed by electrical problems. WDW46 was still 18 hours away and already we were falling behind. The planning for WDW46 began almost within days of completing WDW47 in the summer of 2013. We ended that run with 48 rides — 45 of them […]

Paper Paper; get your paper here!

We are 24 hours away from WDW46; the countdown has begun. Ted is en route to Orlando, Shane is scouting the parks and planning for all possible mishaps and all systems are go. For nearly 17 months the gears have been churning as the Parkeology machine marches towards inevitable victory. For us theme park geeks […]

Two Days Until WDW46

Today we continue on with our series on the best animated film park tie-ins. We have some all-time classics on the list here. Fox and the Hound, Black Cauldron, Oliver and Company. These films not only– Ah forget it, we can wrap up that series later. We want to keep the momentum building for WDW46, […]
