Trivia[]
- This is the second episode where Dora goes on a dream trip after Dora's Moonlight Adventure.
- Dora will go on another dream adventure in the Dora and Friends: Into the City! episode, Dora's Rainforest Reunion (specifically the Night Circus part).
- Swiper does not appear in this episode or join Dora, Boots, and Diego for the museum sleepover.
- However, a giant takes Swiper's place as the antagonist.
- Boots doesn't go with Dora for the whole trip, but does take her across the windy lake.
- This is the second time that Rainbow Bridge appeared after the Season 2 episode Quack! Quack!.
- The chinchilla turns into a unicorn so Dora can go across Rainbow Bridge.
- This is the 170th episode of the show.
- "¡Por Favor!" is the name of the painting. During I'm the Map, the Fiesta Trio’s singing is taken from the episode of the same name.
- The Travel Song's role is taken by the new song Together We Can Break the Spell.
- Papi and Abuela do not appear in this episode.
- Isa, Benny, Tico, Baby Jaguar, Daisy, Alicia, Mama Jaguar and the Bobo Brothers do not appear in this episode or join Dora, Boots, and Diego for the museum sleepover.
- Backpack is not used in this episode.
- The YouTube version jump-cuts to the sped-up credits and cloud scenes without a fade-out, causing a transitional flow into the beginning of the credit music. But the music fades out midway, and the 2009 Nickelodeon logo plays its own theme at a slower and lower pitch, due to being a Season 8 episode. The logo then whooshes to the left.
- This episode somehow alludes to the plot of an episode of the French animated series "Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir".
Goofs/Errors[]
- The attempt to jump-cut to the episode without a fade-in in the YouTube version has failed, as one frame shows the episode fading in.
Running Gag[]
- When Dora helps someone, she uses the magic cape that can only help if "Capa Magica" is said.
- This would later be used for a charm in the Charm Bracelet.
