By 3 Comments

Being back inside Magic Kingdom for the first time in many months has been a totally surreal experience. Even though we’re Disney experts, there’s been a lot of changes and we’ve had to learn so many new things! Oh, and did we mention Cinderella Castle is now a PINK cutie?!

Magic Kingdom

But a Taste of EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival is a totally unique new offering that incorporates elements of Flower and Garden and Food and Wine. Plus, it will be the longest-running festival in EPCOT’s history.

These Are the Most ICONIC Snacks That Are Missing at Disney World (and What You Can Enjoy Instead!)

By 2 Comments

Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom kicked off their grand re-opening last weekend! We were in the parks staking out what was new and missing from our favorite theme parks.

I Lava You Float

Most restaurants are offering limited menus due to the new re-opening procedures. With that, we noticed a lot of crowd-favorite snacks went missing! We already knew some of these tasty treats wouldn’t be making a reappearance, at least not initially, but the loss became way too real now that we’re back in the parks! [Read more…]

Here’s What Our Experience Was Like With Our Expired Tables in Wonderland Card in Disney World

By 10 Comments

Update: We spoke with a General Manager Cast Member who confirmed for us Disney World is not selling new Tables in Wonderland memberships for the time being. We’ll provide more updates as soon as more information becomes available.

Walt Disney World has undergone a lot of changes since re-opening. We’ve seen limited menus, increased sanitation procedures, and many changes to experiences like rides and attractions.

Tables in Wonderland Membership Card

One of the most surprising changes was the cancelation of the Disney Dining Plan. Many guests rely on the dining plan to budget for their vacations. We were curious to see what the process would be like for guests who use the Tables in Wonderland dining discount card. Would Cast Members honor the discount for those of us whose cards expired during the closure? [Read more…]
