Wonderin' where the lions are?
Adam Goodger of the Disney Brit Podcast is with us again! And no, we didn’t have a meal together alongside these charming lions at Café Hyperion….though I surely wish we could have.

Want more info on Disneyland Paris? Check out Jennifer’s trip report from September 2005, or visit the DisBoards DLRP trip planning forum. DLRPMagic.com has tons of information too, especially if you’re not already somewhat familiar with the resort.

(A note about audio quality: We did manage to get the spoken tracks into mono this time, in response to your feedback. There’s a bit of roughness here and there, though, which we’re just going to have to blame on trans-Atlantic Skype packet loss. Our apologies.)

Jennifer and The Watchamacallit are planning a return visit to Disneyland Paris this summer, but their Disneyland Paris skillz are in need of some sharpening! So, Jennifer and Lisa called in an expert: Adam Goodger of the Disney Brit Podcast.

Oh, and the link to Hayden’s Hong Kong Disneyland, and Len’s drug-addled comment? Start here at Broke Hoedown and you’ll find both. Ain’t no drinkin’ on the carousel…but what about parkin’ on the dance floor? Well??!?

Who, us? Cranky? Well, yeah. A lot of things get on our nerves, and sometimes we’ve just gotta go with it.

And no, Jennifer’s not just talking out of school about those Starbucks caffiene levels. Check this out, from Slate:
The Wall Street Journal earlier this year sent samples of coffee from Starbucks, 7-Eleven, and Dunkin’ Donuts to Central Analytical Laboratories. The lab reported that a 16-ounce Starbucks house blend coffee contained 223 milligrams of caffeine, compared with 174 and 141 milligrams in comparable amounts of Dunkin’ Donuts and 7-Eleven coffee, respectively. According to the Journal, the average Starbucks coffee drink contains 320 milligrams of caffeine.
And that little bit of Japanese Mickey Mouse at the end of the podcast? It’s Mickey’s answering machine, from Tokyo Disneyland’s Toontown. Woot!

How thoughtful is Jeff W? He designed these Flat Cats, based on our original logo, by the fabulous Dan Hess of Venis Productions. So, y’all can play a litle Flat Stanley-type game if you wish. Just print them out, color them up, and cut out your own little Lisa and Jennifer, to pose with as you take pictures in the locations of your choice (Disney or otherwise)! If enough of you send pictures, we’ll set up a page here on our blog so everyone can enjoy.

This week, we Cats talk a bit about MagicMeets, which we’ll both be attending for the first time, this coming weekend in Camp Hill, Pennsylvania. The Wachamacallit reviews WALL-E (with mild spoilers), and then all three of us reminisce about the people we met during our trip to Walt Disney World last month for Star Wars Weekends (recorded live at Le Cellier).
Download the episode directly, or subscribe using iTunes or RSS feed.
We hope to see many of you at MagicMeets! We’ll have plenty of Those Darn Cats buttons to give away, and are really looking forward to meetings some of you!
