| Welcome to another MiceChat Round-Up!
I hope everyone had a great 4th of July as it looks like attendance
in all theme parks around California was light. A special couple
has some big news and it looks like the parks around
the world have some new visitors heading their way. We have all
that and more so sit back, relax and enjoy!- hollywood1939
