food IS a theme park
What’s your rope drop strategy for Magic Kingdom?
Magic Kingdom
With dozens of attractions, this park can often be the most challenging to tackle in the morning — how do you choose where to go first?! If you’re a Disney Resort guest, you can enjoy Early Theme Park Entry in Fantasyland and Tomorrowland, but the other lands of the park are free game for everyone when things officially open. And now, Disney has added a new factor into the mix.
We’ve eaten at a LOT of restaurants in Disney World, and by a lot, we mean HUNDREDS.
Spaceship Earth at EPCOT
In fact, here at DFB, we’ve actually eaten at every restaurant in Disney World over the years, and we keep going back frequently to see if they’re still up to scratch. We especially like to stop by when we see that a restaurant has changed its menu, which is why I recently took a trip to the Mexico Pavilion in EPCOT!
There’s a rogue village in Disney World where criminals run amuck.
The town in question.
Yep, I’m talking about the tiny train town in EPCOT! This itty bitty city is filled with anarchy, crime, and plenty of general shenanigans, so I love to stop by and see what the residents are up to on a regular basis. I made another trip to this little German town recently, and I’ve got some wild updates for you!
Here at DFB, we’re pretty big fans of Disney+.

Quite a few changes are coming to Disney World in the future!
Spaceship Earth
We’ve discussed the new Villains Land at Magic Kingdom, the Monsters, Inc. Land at Hollywood Studios, and the Tropical Americas at Animal Kingdom, but what about EPCOT? The park just wrapped up its massive transformation, but there are still some projects to be completed…including the major update for Test Track.
We’ve been getting pretty hyped for upcoming Disney movies!

Back during D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event, we got quite a few updates about Disney movies coming soon, including some exciting sequels. There’s going to be a lot to watch in the next few years! But if you’re eager to start the Disney movie marathon now, we’ve got some important information for you.
It’s Halloween season in Disney World and that means pumpkins are EVERYWHERE.
Magic Kingdom
From the Magic Kingdom decor to the merchandise collections, we’re seeing pumpkins pop up all over the place. But perhaps the most prevalent pumpkin sightings are all the seasonal snacks! It IS pumpkin spice season after all. And recently, we decided to try out another (rather unique!) pumpkin treat.
If you’re packing to go to Disney World, there’s one thing that we almost always recommend you bring with you…
FuelRod
…a portable charger! Since so many things are done on our phones these days, it’s usually a good idea to have backup battery coverage when you go on vacation. We even have a list of portable chargers that we prefer. But recently, it seems that portable chargers have been causing some problems!
It’s not uncommon for Disney rides to be closed during your vacation.
Pirates of the Caribbean Disneyland
Disneyland Resort and Disney World are home to dozens of rides each, and many of those rides are a few decades old. For safety, attractions must get regularly scheduled refurbishments to keep them up to date. Thankfully, you can check the calendars online to see which rides will be closed during your trip!
If you’ve traveled through the Orlando International Airport (MCO), you know it can get BUSY.
Terminal C at the Orlando International Airport
MCO is often ranked as one of the top 10 busiest airports in the U.S., and we’ve definitely seen that chaos during busy travel seasons like holidays and holiday weekends. During those times, lines for security get incredibly long and the parking garages fill up quickly. But now MCO is doing something to fix one of those problems.
