food IS a theme park
Fans (us included) love a lot of things about Disney World — the attractions, the food (of course), the awesome merchandise, and more.

But, what truly makes Disney World the Most Magical Place on Earth? We’ve got a specific answer in mind and today we found more PROOF to support it.
We learned a little while ago that character meet and greets were returning to Disney World in a modified way.
We love Pooh!
Since Disney World reopened, you could only see your favorite characters from a distance — though you could still wave “hello” and take pictures. Even at character meals, they usually just walk through the room or greet guests from a distance. Now, there are new character meet and greets (called character “sightings”) in the parks. The first sightings have officially arrived in Disney World, and we’re checking out the experience to see how they’re different than past meet and greets. [Read more…]
At Disney World, there are a lot of “spoken” rules like keeping your hands and feet inside the ride, no flash photography, and following the park dress code!

And we’ve even covered those unwritten tips you don’t find in every guidebook that make a day in Disney World WAY better and easier. However, did you know that Disney World also has unspoken rules too? We’re talking stuff you SHOULDN’T do but isn’t technically breaking Disney’s rules. So, without further ado… here are 8 Unspoken Disney World Rules!
Y’all know we’re always looking out for new food in Disney World.
Magic Kingdom
This morning, we stopped by a very popular Magic Kingdom spot to try out a lunch option that’s been around for a little while, but it seems like a lot of people don’t know about it yet. We’re going to try it out and see if the new item could possibly replace a lunch at the Plaza Restaurant or (heaven forbid) Casey’s Corner. [Read more…]
It’s Halloween season at Disney World — or is it?

Have you noticed that it just doesn’t FEEL the same in Disney World this year?? The “most spookiest time of the year” seems to have been pushed aside in favor of that other big thing that happened in October — the 50th Anniversary. Not to mention Christmas decorations (!!!) are already showing up on the scene! Honestly, it doesn’t feel like the Halloween we have come to look forward to at Disney World in past years. It got us wondering…did Disney World get cheated out of Halloween this year?
The holiday season is quickly approaching!
Christmas at Magic Kingdom
Even though spooky season isn’t over yet, Disney already has some holiday decorations up. The parks are gearing up for all of the festivities, with things like a special After Hours event happening in Magic Kingdom and new holiday merchandise. And, we have some exciting news! Here is a look at all the food coming this holiday season to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and Disney Springs (Don’t worry, Disney says the EPCOT foodie guide will be out soon)!
If you’re planning to visit Disney World you’ve likely taken a number of steps to prepare — packed your bags, booked your hotel, made your Park Pass reservations, etc.
Rainy Day in the Magic Kingdom
But there’s one big thing you definitely want to make sure you prepare for…the weather! The weather in Orlando can be hot and sunny, wet and rainy, and even surprisingly cold at times (and sometimes all 3 hit within a short period of time). If you’re planning to visit Disney World this week, we’ve got an important weather update for you.
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Magic Kingdom!

And, we’ve got plenty of updates to share with you! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s dive right on in!
Before visiting Disney World, you’ll definitely want to check out the refurbishment calendar online to see what might be closed during your trip.
Check online before your trip so that you aren’t surprised!
Often, attractions will close for a short amount of time to get some maintenance and keep things spiffy, but sometimes those closures last longer than anticipated. The PeopleMover had a surprise closure of more than a year a while back, but one other Magic Kingdom ride has that one beat — the Walt Disney World Railroad.
Halloween is less than a week away, everyone!

Spooky season is still going strong in Disney World, with Boo Bash After Hours events, festive merchandise, and a ton of pumpkin treats. And, we just saw another frightfully fun item in Disney World that Nightmare Before Christmas fans in particular will love!
