food IS a theme park
What do you use to stay hydrated in Disney World?
EPCOT
You really have to plan well, especially in the summer Florida heat! One option is to take advantage of the free water that’s available throughout Disney World, and that brings us to the main point. If you don’t already, you should really be carrying a refillable water bottle with you at all times!
You know about McDonald’s, their famous fries, their popular Big Mac sandwich, and even the viral Grimace shake — but have you heard about CosMc’s? Soon, you will!
McDonald’s
We’ve shared all kinds of McDonald’s updates lately — from new menu items to special Happy Meal Toys — but this news might really surprise you!
This summer has been BIG for movie releases!
Haunted Mansion in Disney World
We started back in May with the live-action version of The Little Mermaid, and later several franchises were added to the list with releases like Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. Now, we’re getting hyped for the big opening weekend of the new Haunted Mansion movie, and Disney is celebrating the best way they know how — with merchandise! [Read more…]
We love shopping on Main Street, U.S.A., in Magic Kingdom.
The Emporium
Here, you can find great souvenirs to take home with you to remember your trip. But sometimes, you can’t make it to Main Street. Maybe you forgot to grab a souvenir you wanted or you haven’t been to Disney in a while. Have no worries, because you can still shop for Disney merchandise online, and right now, over 800 items are on sale!
We’ve all been there: you’re at the checkout counter of your favorite merchandise location in Disney World when the Cast Member asks, “Do you have any discounts?” Unless you’re an Annual Passholder, Disney Vacation Club Member, or some other lucky duck that qualifies for some kind of discount, you’ve probably (sadly) responded, “Nope.” But did you know that you don’t have to spend thousands on an Annual Pass or a DVC membership to qualify for a discount?
We’re walking right down the middle of Main Street, U.S.A.
Disney Chase Visa cardholders are eligible for discounts, too! If you’re considering getting a Disney Visa card of your own, you’ve come to the right place.
Can you believe the week is almost over? Where did the week go?!
Time to buy MORE Disney stuff
It’s crazy how quickly time flies, but worry not! We’re about to have some fun! We’re sure you’ve seen all the latest deals on merch and the other essentials you’ve been looking for. Now, we’ve got even more for you, so let’s jump right in!
We love Disney World and Disneyland, and a lot of the magic in those parks comes from Disney’s Imagineers. Now, some former Imagineers are working on a NEW project!
We love Disney World, but we’re interested in this NEW theme park!
There’s just something special about Disney Parks. Even the international parks are magical. However, we have to admit that we are completely INTRIGUED about a new theme park being built in the Midwest, mostly because it’s being constructed by former Disney Imagineers. We also have some details about that park, so let’s discuss!
Important changes are being made at the former Reedy Creek Improvement District (now called the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District).
Reedy Creek Improvement District
The Board of Supervisors for the District is now made of Governor DeSantis’ appointees, and within just a few months, they have declared some of Disney’s agreements with the old board to be invalid, initiated a lawsuit against Disney in state court, heard some complaints and fears from Disney Springs restaurant operators, and more. And now more changes have been revealed.
The feud between Disney and Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has taken another turn, as Disney issues a response to the governor’s request that their lawsuit against him be dismissed.
Disney vs. DeSantis
Disney is suing Gov. DeSantis, claiming that the governor has waged a “relentless campaign to weaponize government power” against Disney. Last month, DeSantis requested that the lawsuit be dismissed, and now Disney has responded to that request. [Read more…]
