food IS a theme park
Getting to the Disneyland Resort just got a lot easier!
Sleeping Beauty Castle in Disneyland
You will now be able to add service from Anaheim Regional Transportation directly to your vacation package making your commute to the parks that much easier!
How can you avoid Disneyland’s crowds? Where can you experience the BEST parts of the parks minus the wait times? And what are the best Disneyland shortcuts? We’ve got LOADS of good (and super-easy) tricks for you.
Sleeping Beauty Castle
If you’re getting ready to head to Anaheim to explore the OG Disneyland resort area, then you’re gonna want to make sure you’ve got all your “Disney” ducks in a row before you go. So today, we’re gonna throw out several Disneyland tips that have personally helped us out during our past west coast visits — and we hope you feel the same about ‘em too.
Walking around Disney World every day gives us a unique advantage to sit back and watch for things that might not be so apparent on the surface. Or maybe, we run across things that are too “in your face” that you just completely miss.
EPCOT
It’s true we’ve covered some of the most bizarre and weird things we’ve spotted at Disney World’s park however, we’re seeing evidence of a new trend growing and we don’t know how to feel about it.
Things change in Disney World — ALL the time, and they’re going to keep on changing.
Fantasyland in Magic Kingdom
In Magic Kingdom alone, we’ve recently seen the opening of a brand new ride, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, the opening of some new shops, and the reopening of an updated Country Bear Jamboree. The park is also getting a new Cars-themed land and a Villains land, but the changes don’t stop there. Recently, Peter Pan’s Flight in Fantasyland temporarily closed, but it has since reopened — and the ride has changed.
Disney dropped a TON of news on us at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event and we’ve been busy trying to discover all the little tiny details ever since!
Hi, Walt!
One of the most exciting announcements (other than the HUGE park expansions revealed for Disney World and Disneyland) was that a nighttime parade is finally coming BACK to Magic Kingdom — except this will be a BRAND-NEW parade! Disney Starlight will debut next year and we’ve just spotted the first casting call!
Have you tried Disney World’s new Lightning Lane system?
Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway Lightning Lane sign
Gone are the old ways of Genie+, and now we instead have Lightning Lane Multi Pass and Lightning Lane Single Pass to help us skip the long waits in the park. These paid systems can save you time during your park day, IF you know how to use them efficiently. That’s why we’re teaching you about one of our Lightning Lane tricks!
We found out A LOT of things coming to Disney World in the next few years during D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event! However, one announcement has left us feeling a bit worried.
Animal Kingdom
We learned that a Cars Land AND a Villains Land will be coming to Magic Kingdom, a Monsters, Inc. Land will be coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios, new lounges are coming to Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, and so much more. We also learned that Disney’s Animal Kingdom will also be seeing some big changes soon and we are feeling a bit anxious about what that might mean.
We’re back with an update from the WILDEST town in Disney World!
Hey there tiny villagers!
If you’ve been following along with our adventures in the tiny train town in EPCOT, then you know that this itty bitty city is filled with crime, dastardly deeds, and in general, complete anarchy. As the self-proclaimed mayor of the village, I’ve been attempting to catch the criminals in their wrongdoing and keep the town on the straight and narrow, but during a recent visit, I found some concerning problems.
If you’ve been to Disneyland recently, you’ll know that it has a LOT of construction going on right now. Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is under construction, although the ride is set to open on November 15th. The area around the ride, though, is currently closed as it gets re-themed and renamed as Bayou Country. Hungry Bear Restaurant, which is also located nearby is getting a reimagining and will soon become Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree.
Disneyland
There’s also some construction happening to the queue for Haunted Mansion in nearby New Orleans Square. This means that some of the pathways in these areas have been closed due to construction. We’ve got some good news, though: one of those pathways will soon reopen.
Few things are more disappointing than getting to Disney World, only to realize that the attraction you’ve been looking forward to riding is CLOSED.
Cinderella Castle
It happens more often than you might think — usually because the ride itself needs a little TLC. That’s been the case for an iconic Magic Kingdom ride as of late, but we’ve got good news because this ride is reopening EARLY!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
