Whether it’s rain, high winds, haze, heat, or snoap, something interesting is bound to happen at Disney World! Today, some very unusual weather made it harder to get to Magic Kingdom!
Disney World attractions, rides, and restaurants can close down for a myriad of reasons, sometimes planned and sometimes not.

What’s up, DFB Friends?
Don’t mind us — we just ate a ton of pizza this week!
The holidays have arrived at Disney World, and we’re still trying out all kinds of new holiday snacks and drinks, and we’ll keep doing so until the end of the year!

And now perhaps one of the BIGGEST free Disney World perks will be gone in a few short weeks, and here’s what you need to know.

If you’re not staying at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort & Spa, you might miss The Turf Club Lounge.
