As we were walking around Downtown Disney this week we walked by the huge building which used to hold the Virgin Megastore before it closed and noticed that in its place is a Princess Diana Exhibit.
The exhibit will be open until the end of November 2009 and holds rare artifacts including some of the dresses that Princess Diana wore and videos of her life.
Admission costs $14.50 for adults and $5 for children.
If you have plans to visit Walt Disney World in the next two months do you hope to check out this exhibit?

Last night we tuned in along with many of you to check out the new Disney Channel Original Movie “Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie.” The film starred some of our favorite Disney Celebrities including Selena Gomez, David Henrie and Jake T Austin.
In the beginning of the movie, Selena’s character, Alex Russo, is upset with her mom for not letting her do all of the things she wants, like going to parties and staying over her friends house. Alex’s mom makes her go on a family vacation – something Alex is not too pleased about – and the whole experience turns sour!
Alex is so upset that she has been forced to go on vacation that she wishes that her mom and dad had never met! At the same time she is holding onto the Family Wand and her wish comes true – yikes!
Alex realizes that her parents no longer remember each other, or her and her brothers (played by David and Jake). The siblings have to work together to track down the magic Stone of Dreams which can grant anyone one wish. Alex’s wish is to take back everything she said and make her life go back to the way it was.
In the movie David plays the character of Justin Russo, while Jake plays Max Russo. Jennifer Stone also appears in the beginning of the film as Alex’s friend Harper. As in the Disney Channel Original Series Wizards of Waverly Place Alex’s mother, Theresa, is played by Maria Canals-Barrera and Alex’s father, Jerry, is played by David DeLuise.
As we mentioned previously Alex’s crush at the beginning, Javier, is played by Xavier Torres.
The villain in the movie, as every Disney movie must have one, is played by a parrot who sits on the shoulder of an aspiring magician. The parrot has promised the magician that if he helps her find the stone of dreams to turn her back into the beautiful human that she once was they will be able to have a blossoming relationship. However we find out at the end that this is a lie!
While Alex and Justin trek through the jungle with the magician and parrot in search of the Stone of Dreams, Max must work to keep his parents from meeting other people and falling in love.
We thought that “Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie” was extremely well made for a Disney Channel Original Movie, especially when it comes to special effects. Tonight, August 29th, on the Disney Channel the cast of Wizards of Waverly Place will be going behind the scenes of the movie to show fans how the special effects were made to look the way they did in the Disney Channel movie.
It turns out that a lot of the scenes were shot in front of a green screen to give us the effects we saw on our television screens last night.
We definitely think the movie could have made it to the big screen if it had been lengthened a bit and had a few extra characters. We hope in the future they decide to make a “Wizards of Waverly Place: The Movie” sequel! What about you?

As we were watching the Disney Channel Original Movie “Wizards Of Waverly Place: The Movie” our first question was who IS that heart throb that Selena Gomez has her eye set on in the film?
Turns out that hottie is actor Xavier Torres – who is playing the character Javier. Apart from the Wizards Movie, Xavier also starred in an episode of the television show “Entourage” in 2007 and “Break-In” in 2006.
What did you think of Xavier? Do you think he is a good match for Selena? What about a good match for you?
