Working as a cast member at the Disney- land Resort, every day is an adventure. But some experiences just can’t be taken for granite! Recently a group of Disneyland Resort Jungle Cruise Skippers donned their khakis for something a little out of the ordinary — a starring role in the world premiere of Disney’s “Jungle Cruise” film. “To me, every day is a red carpet when we get to do what we do,” shared Kipp Hart. “I love it here, and being part of [the premiere], it’s hard to top it.” The excitement before the premiere was palpable, especially among the skip- pers, who reopened the newly enhanced Jungle Cruise attraction earlier that month.

The last stop of the tour was just inside the Opera House, where we showcase one of the green benches from Griffith Park, where Walt would sit and watch his daughters on the merry- go-round and imagine a place where families could make magic memories together. “This is my favorite place in the park,” Mary said. “But it’s not because it’s where Walt thought about Disneyland for the first time. It’s because we know he got up from that bench and invested everything he had, personally and professionally, in making that dream come true.

RECIPE CORNER Frozen Pineapple Treat Inspired by DOLE Whip® from Walt Disney Parks and Resorts

This iconic sweet treat from Walt Disney Parks and Resorts is a must on a hot sum- mer day … or any day, really! Did you know the relationship between Dole Packaged Foods and Disney spans more than 45 years? Starting in 1976, Dole sponsored Walt Disney’s Enchanted Tiki Room at Disneyland park, and later in 1984, Dole Whip (originally called Dole Pine- apple Whip but later shortened to Dole Whip) was created and debuted at Aloha Isle at Park. Since that time, Disney fans have been able to delight in this slightly tart frozen sweet treat throughout parks and resorts and on Disney Cruise Line. The Dole Whip original (and still most popular!) is pineapple but is also offered in other flavors like raspberry, mango and lemon at Disneyland park. If you haven’t yet tried to create a version of this tropical treat at home, here is your chance!

DIRECTIONS (Serves 4):

1. Place 1/2 cup pineapple juice, frozen pineapple, and dairy-free vanilla ice cream in blender and blend until smooth — do not over blend. If the mixture is too thick to blend, add 2 tablespoons of pineapple juice at a time. INGREDIENTS 2. Scoop into bowls and serve immediately.

• 1/2–3/4 cup pineapple juice, divided Note: Always use caution when handling sharp objects and hot contents. • 2 cups frozen pineapple chunks Please supervise children who are helping or nearby. • 1 cup dairy-free vanilla ice cream This recipe has been converted from a larger quantity in the restaurant kitchens. The flavor profile may vary from the restaurant’s version.
