food IS a theme park
If you’ve ever happened to see any of the beautiful chocolate sculptures done by the chefs at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, you would know that these chefs are not just amazing bakers, but also fantastic artists!

They’ve created some beautiful works of art out of chocolate with themes like Mickey and Minnie, Cinderella’s Castle, and more!
Step right up, we’ve got something to show you! There’s something different over at the Dumbo attraction in Storybook Circus. That tiny little mouse by Dumbo’s side seems to have flown the coop! Did he borrow Dumbo’s ears?!

While we were visiting Storybook Circus in the Magic Kingdom, we noticed that a familiar friend wasn’t where he belonged!
Lately, we’ve been seeing something new every day in Disney World — especially with the 50th Anniversary starting soon! It feels like only yesterday we were anxiously waiting for the gold statues to debut in the parks, and now we’re tracking the installation of Lightning Lane signs and searching for refurbished park icons!
Hello from the Magic Kingdom!
Well, today is no exception! The Cinderella castle stage has been empty for a long time now (we miss those castle stage shows!), but it looks like the stage is getting a 50th Anniversary makeover to match the castle!
Over the past few months, there has been a whole lot of construction progress around Disney World!
It’s Fall in Disney World!
We’ve seen brand new shops open, restaurants debut, and tons of attractions have received a fresh coat of paint leading up to the Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary. And, now that we’re only a few weeks away from the big party, we’ve got even more to share — so, let’s dive right in!
Anyone remember Relaxation Stations?
Relaxation Station
Relaxation Stations were a great spots to unwind and escape the busy theme parks! These were originally added when Disney World first reopened last year as a place for guests to remove their face masks, but they have since closed in each park. But, there are still places to relax in Disney World and we wanted to show you one of the best spots in Magic Kingdom!
Disney World is certainly a magical place, but it’s not perfect. Sometimes things happen.
Splash Mountain
We’ve seen Mobile Order go down, animatronics with missing hands, animatronics just missing, animatronics with weird faces, and more. We’ve also seen rides go down quite a bit, too, including the PeopleMover, and Splash Mountain, both at Magic Kingdom.
BIG changes are coming to Disney World with the introduction of Disney Genie, Genie+, and Individual Attraction Selection.

Hey pumpkin spice fans, we’ve got an exciting snack update for you!
Everglazed
Back in January of this year, Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew officially made its debut in Disney Springs. This donut shop is known for its over-the-top creations like the famous Grilled Cheese Donut. And if you’re looking for a festive treat, you’re in luck. Everglazed often serves up seasonal donuts and coffees for a limited time, like their latest fall-inspired menu additions!
There is a LOT going on at Disney’s Contemporary Resort… .
Disney’s Contemporary Resort
There’s been a lot of construction there recently as The Wave…of American Flavors becomes a new restaurant, Steakhouse 71. And the rooms are in the process of getting an Incredibles theme! As a result of all the construction, we’ve seen a lot of scrims and construction walls throughout the hotel!
P&J’s Takeout at Fort Wilderness Cabins & Campgrounds is a convenient spot to grab a quick bite! Known for delicious cupcakes and American classics, P&J’s is a popular spot for people staying at the resort (and TBH, since this resort is kind of a world of its own, there’s a chance you’ve never heard of it if you haven’t stayed here!).
P & J’s Southern Takeout
We usually check this spot out for a new snack, cupcake, or fancy specialty coffee, but we realized it had been a while since we’ve had a full meal here! So, we stopped by to check it out and see if it’s as delicious as we remember!
