food IS a theme park
There’s one Disney World snack spot we get to visit almost every single month of the year…
HELLO handsome!
…yep, we’re talking about Gideon’s Bakehouse! This spot in Disney Springs has different seasonal cookies each month, and any time there’s a new one, we make it a point to stop by and try it out. It’s an incredibly popular spot, and the line to get in can be a multi-hour wait on the busiest days. But is that line worth the trouble for the NEW February cookie? Let’s find out!
We’re in Magic Kingdom a LOT you guys. Like pretty much every single day.
Magic Kingdom
And when you spend that much time in one park, you encounter a variety of scenarios. We’ve seen everything from children throwing tantrums to rides breaking down to our fair share of Main Street, U.S.A. proposals. But every time we go to Magic Kingdom, there are a few unfortunate things that happen!
It’s time to take a vacation! How do we know? Because of all the deals!
Orlando International Airport
Right now, Disney World is offering some great deals on hotels, various airlines are offering deals on flights, and you can even get some discounts on cruises. It’s a good time to plan your next trip! And if you’re hoping to score some savings with an airline, we’ve got an important update!
Disney World has announced quite a few projects in recent years!
Cinderella Castle in Magic Kingdom
Some of those projects are currently underway (like Tiana’s Bayou Adventure), while we’re still waiting on updates for others (we’re looking at you, PLAY! Pavilion). And in Magic Kingdom, there’s one project that was announced…but we’re still waiting to hear more! Honestly, this one has us intrigued.
I go to Disney World for my job a LOT. Like, a lot, a lot.
Magic Kingdom’s Cinderella Castle
In fact, I’m usually in the parks multiple times a week. Unfortunately, after a while, some things lose a little bit of their charm. Visiting The Emporium is less exciting when I’m fighting for my life while trying to take pictures of a new pair of Minnie ears, and Main Street, U.S.A. loses a tiny bit of its appeal when it’s slammed with fans before a parade. But no matter how many times I visit, some things never get old.
We’re in the Disney World parks every. Single. Day.
Magic Kingdom
When you’re visiting the parks that often, you’re bound to figure out quite a few hidden secrets. And since the parks are usually pretty crowded, we’re always on the lookout for shortcuts and pathways that keep us away from the masses. We’ve amassed quite a list of park shortcuts, and today we’re sharing that list with you!
It’s been nearly four years since Disney World closed down for the global pandemic, and things are still returning to normal in the parks.
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
For a while, we watched as Disney World hotels and restaurants reopened one by one. Eventually, we got the return of popular entertainment offerings and character meet and greets. But through it all, one restaurant has remained closed, and we get questions about it ALL the time!
For a while now, we’ve been waiting for Disney to make a big business move.
ESPN Wide World of Sports
Disney’s had some problems with streaming over the past few years, but particularly with ESPN+. The service hasn’t been as successful as it could be, even though there’s a high demand for sports entertainment. But now, Disney finally seems to have the solution — and it involves some other major players.
2023 wasn’t the best year for Disney at the box office, but we’ve got our fingers crossed for 2024!
AMC Theaters
Between Inside Out 2, Deadpool 3, and Mufasa: The Lion King, there are likely to be lots of Disney fans in the theaters this year. We’ve been looking forward to learning more about these upcoming films, and we could get new trailers VERY soon!
If you’re going to a Disney park on vacation, you might be expecting lovely weather!
Mickey Mouse at Disneyland
After all, the domestic Disney parks are located in California and Florida — states known for their sunshine. But if you’ve ever been to Florida in the summertime, you know that it rains nearly every day…and now it seems California is getting the same treatment in February. We’ve got a weather WARNING for those heading to Disneyland Resort soon!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
