Walt Disney World Pop Century Resort Shadow Box Tour – Official Full Tour

With over 25 resorts, Walt Disney World has something for everyone.  No matter what your price range, you’re sure to find theming and an immersive environment.  Each resort has its own unique charm, and some have exclusive activities.  When it comes to value resorts, Disney’s Pop Century is my favorite; it’s a nostalgic look at the unforgettable fads of the 1950s through the 1990s.  The Disney Skyliner station connection the resort and Art of Animation to the Carriean Beach Station, continuing to Disney Hollywood Studios or Epcot isn’t a bad addition at all 😉

The icons are unmistakable, from the 1950s Lady and the Tramp, and bowling pins, 1960’s Yo-Yos Hippie flowers, and Play-Doh.  The 1970s 8-Track tapes, Disco and Big Wheel, the 1980s Rubik’s cube and Rodger Rabbit and Cell Phones and Laptops of the 1990s.   Pop Century is a salute to the timeless fashions, catchphrases, toys, and dances of those decades.

When you checked in, did you notice the Shadowboxes along the way across from the check-in counters?   Those shadowboxes tell the story of the decades, the story of the resort.  Pre-Covid, on select days the resort front desk staff would conduct a “Shadowbox Tour.” The tour typically started around 3:30, so if you’re like me, at 3:30 in the afternoon in Walt Disney World, I would be in one of Walt Disney World’s Theme Parks.  So the Shadowbox tour is one of those things I always wanted to do, but who has the time?  Well, one day back in 2014 headed back to Pop Century to get ready for the Not So Scary Halloween Party, and that was my opportunity to record the tour, not just any tour, a private tour for you and me!  That tour is this episode of SamsDisneyDiary. Thanks for watching.
