food IS a theme park
It’s been a BIG morning in Disney World.
Cinderella Castle
Just last night Disney announced face masks for all guests would not be required outdoors. After almost a year of strict face mask rules in place, we hit the parks early to see this new change in action. Come along with us as we check out life in Disney World (outdoors) mask-free. [Read more…]
If you’ve been following along with DFB for a while now (or honestly even a few days), you probably know that one of our favorite parts of Disney World is the snacks.
There’s nothing like enjoying a Mickey Pretzel in front of Cinderella Castle (no matter HOW expensive!)
Seriously, we’ve made it our JOB to eat our way through Disney World. And, while we’ve had TONS of great snacks, some can cost a pretty penny. So, today we’re talking about the MOST expensive ones and we’ll even touch on why you shouldn’t count them out just because they’re costly!
As the situation with COVID-19 and vaccinations continues to develop, we’ve seen a number of updates announced from theme parks and more about health and safety policies.
Together Again Face Mask
Recently, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released updated mask guidance for those who are fully vaccinated. Shortly thereafter, Disney’s CEO made a few comments in response. Earlier today we also saw Universal Orlando make significant changes to their mask policy. And now we’ve got a major update from Disney World about changes being made to their mask requirements.
During yesterday’s quarterly earnings call, Disney CEO Bob Chapek hinted that park capacity at Disney World would increase very soon. These remarks came in response to the CDC’s newest guidance which states that fully vaccinated individuals can now “resume activities without wearing a mask or staying 6 feet apart.”

While we have yet to hear updates from Disney World regarding their face mask policies, we’re starting to see the first tangible signs that park capacity at Disney World is on the rise at this very moment!
Recently, we’ve seen quite a few updates when it comes to health and safety rules in Disney World and other theme parks.

Disney has already announced that they will be phasing out temperature checks and gradually reducing social distancing. Recently, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention provided updated mask guidance for those who are fully vaccinated. And yesterday Disney’s CEO Bob Chapek made a number of comments about the CDC’s updated guidance and how it could impact the parks. Will Disney World change their mask policies soon? Here’s what we’re seeing.
Y’all — a LOT is happening in theme parks right now, as the CDC begins recommending looser health and safety guidelines.

Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Hollywood Studios!

Cast Members can often save your Disney World trip with an extra glimmer of magic when you’re having a less-than-stellar day.
Cast Members know how to make you smile
But, handing out free cotton candy or Mickey Premium Bars aren’t the only ways that they’re saving the day. Cast Members do a lot behind the scenes both on the job and beyond that makes an impact on others’ lives and one EPCOT Security Cast Member was recently recognized for doing just that!
As the situation with COVID-19 continues to develop, we’ve seen a number of changes announced when it comes to health and safety policies at theme parks and elsewhere.
Physical Distancing Signs
Disney World has noted that they will be phasing out temperature checks and gradually reducing physical distancing guidelines. We’ve also seen many trash can lids closed and other things returning to “normal” in the parks. Now we’re starting to spot some changes in the parks when it comes to social distancing guidelines.
The character interactions at Disney World have been SO MUCH FUN recently!
What ARE you up to, Dale?
We’ve seen Chip ‘n’ Dale setting up for a picnic, Pooh chasing butterflies, Donald Duck teaching us how to sneeze, and so much more! But today, we found some of our favorite characters in a brand new spot!
