food IS a theme park
Who’s ready for a mimosa with a side of steak and eggs??
STK Orlando
STK Orlando is home to high-quality service and an upscale menu. They’re known for, you guessed it, steak! We visited STK when it reopened with the rest of Disney Springs to see how the restaurant has changed since the area closed. The restaurant, like many others, is offering a limited lunch and dinner menu. Well, STK just added a NEW brunch menu and we’re totally here for it! [Read more…]
There’s no question that Disney World is a different place than it was before the closures! While some of the changes we’ve seen can certainly cause an inconvenience, we actually think some changes were for the better!
Cinderella Castle
Today, we’re sharing seven things we’ve noticed at a reopened Disney World that we actually PREFER now over the way things were before the closures.
The Test Track Showroom has reopened — and we headed over to take a peek inside!
Test Track
Since EPCOT first welcomed back guests, we’ve seen a number of changes and new additions across the park — including the reopening of several locations that didn’t make their debut with the park!
We found some festive merchandise in Animal Kingdom today!
Expedition Everest
If you missed out on Lunar New Year merchandise earlier this year, there is a place in Animal Kingdom where you can still snag some!
A nearly empty Biergarten Restaurant wasn’t the only interesting thing we spotted in EPCOT today!
EPCOT
Like many Disney fans, we LOVE our spirit jerseys! From Hocus Pocus to Tie Dye, we have one for just about every mood and occasion. And now, we found a spirit jersey that reps one of the World Showcase Pavilions in EPCOT!
We headed out to EPCOT today to see what’s happening in the park!
EPCOT
We made our way to Biergarten Restaurant in the Germany Pavilion for an early dinner, and we were SHOCKED by how empty it was!
Splash Mountain has been getting a lot of attention lately!
Splash Mountain
The Walt Disney World attraction will soon be transformed into a Princess and the Frog ride. Since the announcement, fans have been flocking to the Briar Patch gift shop to pick up Splash Mountain merchandise. We don’t know when the ride will be shut down for refurbishment or how long it will take for the ride to reopen once construction begins. We noticed something interesting while perusing the My Disney Experience app today!
Now that the Disney World theme parks have reopened, Disney is making changes to help mitigate the effects of the closures.
Tables in Wonderland Membership Card
Though the Disney Dining Plan is currently unavailable, we’ve been looking into how the Tables in Wonderland dining discount membership is handled in a reopened Disney World — especially for the many whose membership expired during the closure. We knew that Disney intended to extend Tables in Wonderland due to the closures, and now we know what we can expect of that extension!
Walt Disney World theme parks are officially open to the public. New health and safety regulations were implemented to increase sanitation and encourage physical distancing between travel groups.
Disposable Face Mask
Per regulations, guests are required to wear face-coverings at all times. Disney has set specific requirements for masks and will only accept guests who have the proper coverage. The only time guests are allowed to remove the mask is when they are actively eating or drinking while stationary or at a relaxation station. [Read more…]

Primeval Whirl
The attraction had only been operating seasonally for some time. However, it was recently revealed that Primeval Whirl is one of three attractions permanently closing in Walt Disney World. [Read more…]
