food IS a theme park
Have you ever been to Disney World’s hidden crime village?!
Tiny Train Town
Tucked away in the Germany Pavilion at EPCOT is a tiny town filled with trains and turbulence. We’ve often caught its residents in the middle of misdeeds and malarkey. And now, we have to make weekly visits to the village to see what kind of trouble the miniature people are getting into. Let’s go check it out!
We’re gearing up for fall in the Disney parks!
It’s almost fall time in the Disney parks!
There are so many celebrations coming up soon at both Disney World and Disneyland Resort, with Halloween, Dia de los Muertos, and other seasonal offerings. And a big part of all those celebrations is the special treats we get to try! If you’re heading to Disney California Adventure from August 23rd to November 2nd this year, you’ll definitely want to see the FULL list of snacks that was just revealed for Plaza de la Familia!
Are you taking advantage of Annual Passholder PERKS in Disney World?
Annual Pass
If you have an annual pass, there are plenty of bonus perks that you can enjoy when you go to Disney World, like discounts on food and merchandise, occasional hotel room savings, and sometimes even freebies! For those who are heading to Animal Kingdom soon, we’ve got a heads-up about some new limited-time perks.
There are so many things to do in Disney World besides just riding rides!
Spaceship Earth
From incredible shows and fireworks to interactive exhibits, Disney really has it all! And one of the most popular things to do in the parks is to meet your favorite Disney characters. Recently, Disney asked us a rather interesting question about character meet and greets.
Raise your hand if you’re a Haunted Mansion fan!
Haunted Mansion in Magic Kingdom
The ride is one of the most iconic attractions in Disneyland Park and Magic Kingdom, and it has many iterations around the world. Because it has such a massive fanbase, we’re often seeing Disney release new Haunted Mansion souvenirs and merchandise, and there’s a HOT new one coming soon!
Bad weather is rolling through Florida right now, and if you’re heading on vacation, traveling through the state, or a local, you’ll want to be prepared.
Storms at Magic Kingdom
We’ve been watching a developing storm system for the past several days, and then it became Hurricane Debby. The storm is making landfall, and if you’re interested to see how it will affect the weather overall, we’ve got updates.
Do you visit the pool at your Disney World Resort? Or do you prefer to relax in other ways?
Fuentes del Morro pool at Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort
Depending on what time of day you visit, the Disney World hotel pools can get very crowded! With people trying to cool off from the parks midday or taking a rest day at the resort, using the pool is a very coveted amenity for many. However, now it seems Disney is having to crack down on some pool rules.
Disney World does quite a few refurbishments throughout the year!
Caribbean Beach Resort
From ride closures to hotel room updates to things like gift shop facelifts, we often see construction equipment out and about when wandering around the property. And now, we’ve got a refurbishment update for one popular resort!
There are MORE benefits to staying at a Disney World hotel these days!
Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter
With offerings like the Disney Dining Plan and the option to book your Lightning Lanes 7 days before your vacation, there are definitely more perks to staying at a Disney Resort than there used to be. But coming in 2025, there will be a NEW offering…and we’ve got a way to hack it!
Over our years of covering Disney World food, we’ve probably tried thousands of snacks!
Magic Kingdom
We’ve eaten classic treats like Dole Whip and Mickey Pretzels, but we’ve also tried our fair share of seasonal offerings during the holidays and other special times of year. Coming soon, Disney is celebrating World Princess Week August 25th-31st, which means there will be unique snacks at the parks throughout August. Let’s check out the full list of treats!
