The Virtual Getaway: Disney’s Theme Parks

Caribbean News Digital moves on with its list of major VR attractions and this time up it homes in on Disney World and Disneyland theme parks, by far some of the greatest attractions in the world.
It’s true that Disney’s theme parks have closed indefinitely amid the COVID-19 pandemic, yet you can still experience Disneyland and Disney World amenities virtually, as CNBC explains.
On the Disney Magic Moments website, users can virtually experience popular rides, see the parks, try park recipes and even download Pixar themed video call backgrounds. Let’s get the show on the road!
It’s a Small World
From Disneyland Paris to Hong Kong, different shots of the ride through “It’s a Small World” are included on the virtual experience.
And to make the experience feel more real, Disney reminds users to “keep your hands, arms, feet and legs inside the boat,” in typical fashion. “And off you go to the far corners of the world visiting every continent while being sung to by the children of the world.”
Magic Happens
Along with a virtual ride, Disney has also posted a viewing of its “Magic Happens” parade, filmed at the Disneyland Park in California.
The parade includes nine floats, according to the Disney Magic Moments site, including characters from “Cinderella,” “Sleeping Beauty,” “Frozen 2” and “Moana.”
Dole Whip and Churro Tots
In the field of cuisine and gastronomy, Disney has shared park recipes for popular treats, including its famous Dole Whip and Churro Bites.
And as working from home has become the new normal, Disney created various Pixar backgrounds that can be downloaded for video calls too.
