We can’t contain our excitement for the opening of Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in EPCOT!
Coming soon!
We finally got an opening date for this attraction, so now we know that we’ll get to ride it beginning May 27th, 2022! Some guests, such as Annual Passholders and select D23 members, will even get an early preview of the attraction. We’ve learned a lot about the ride already, with some first looks at the queue area and behind-the-scenes footage of the coaster. But now we know another very important detail about this roller coaster: the minimum height requirement! [Read more…]
One of the most popular restaurants in Magic Kingdom is going through some CHANGES right now!
Be Our Guest
We recently saw that Be Our Guest Restaurant in Magic Kingdom’s Fantasyland extended its hours so that this spot now opens at 10AM. This change made us hopeful that some breakfast or brunch options could be returning to the menu with the earlier opening time. So of course we made a reservation to check out the menu and see if our brunch dreams have been realized. Come along with us to check it out! [Read more…]
Time for a trip around the world! …World Showcase, that is. 😉
Guten Tag from the Germany pavilion!
We’re heading to EPCOT today to check out what’s NEW in this park since the last time we visited! We found a secret snack, checked the progress on some major construction projects, and went shopping for LOTS of new souvenirs. Come along with us to see what you’ve missed. [Read more…]
Disney World is getting closer to pre-pandemic “normal” with traditional character meet-and-greets returning soon, all of the hotels now open, and most of the restaurants back up and running. Speaking of restaurants, we’re still missing one BIG dining location.
Disney’s Grand Floridian
At Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, you can find Victoria & Albert’s. This restaurant is the peak of luxury dining in Disney World, but it hasn’t returned since the 2020 closure. We do know that it will reopen sometime this year, and now we have a BIG hint that its return could be right around the corner! [Read more…]
One of the biggest fibs Disney has told us lately is “We don’t talk about Bruno.” Because since the movie came out, it seems like we can’t STOP talking about Bruno and all of the catchy music from Disney’s Encanto!
Encanto
Encanto recently took home the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature at the 2022 Oscars. In celebration of this achievement and the popularity of the film, Disney is turning an iconic attraction into a colorful tribute to the movie! [Read more…]
It looks like one of Disney World’s most popular restaurants is experiencing some big changes!
Be Our Guest restaurant
Be Our Guest Restaurant is located in Fantasyland in Magic Kingdom. This spot transports guests to the Beast’s castle from Beauty and the Beast, with the dining rooms making you feel like you’re inside the ballroom, West Wing, or art gallery. Recently this spot has only been open for lunch and dinner, with a prix fixe 50th Anniversary-inspired menu. But could that be CHANGING soon? [Read more…]
A huge part of any Disney World visit is the rides and attractions in each theme park. But what happens when some of these rides aren’t open?
Cinderella Castle
Disney frequently refurbishes theme park rides to keep them all in great working order, which means that sometimes the attractions aren’t open to guests. To make sure you’re not disappointed by a surprise ride closure in the middle of your trip, we’ve got a list here of all the rides, attractions, and hotels that are scheduled to be CLOSED in Disney World next week. Take a look so that you know what to plan for on your upcoming vacation. [Read more…]
OK, y’all. It’s time to talk about the unsung hero of Disney World dining: resort food courts. Now, we know what you’re thinking: “Why on earth would I eat at those spots when there are options like Casey’s Corner, La Hacienda de San Angel, and JIKO out there?” We totally get it. But these cafeteria-style restaurants can do one thing for you that all of those places CAN’T.
Disney’s Art of Animation Resort
These fast, casual restaurants can be there for you, right inside your hotel, even late at night when you’re just craving a slice of pizza or a burger. They’re easy to find, have a lot of comfortable options, and are generally much cheaper than the table-service restaurants in Disney World. Let’s visit one of these restaurants today to find out if it’s worth a visit during your upcoming trip to Disney World. [Read more…]
