food IS a theme park
We spent a lovely rainy day at Magic Kingdom.
Rain, Rain, Go Away
And sure, it was wet, but we didn’t let that stop us from walking around the park to see if we could spot anything new! So here are our rainy day updates!
Cinderella Castle has seen some changes over the past year or so, but she’s looking better than ever!
Cinderella Castle
Last February, Disney announced that the castle would be getting a refurbishment. And it did – the moat was drained and the castle received a brand new paint job! And we have to say — the new pink color has grown on us, and it really pops in photos, especially against a gorgeous blue Florida sky.
Guys…we NEED to show you this.
Beaches and Cream Soda Shop
You may remember that Beaches and Cream Soda Shop at Disney’s Beach Club Resort is no longer serving their super yummy ice cream out of their to go window. That’s all well and good — you can still get your sweet snack inside! But every time we pop back over to this area, we notice the to-go window looks a little…different.
The Disney Skyliner is so much fun!
Skyliner
It’s become one of our favorite transportation options at Disney World, mostly because of the awesome bird’s eye view we get of Disney World! And we think some of you think so, too — because Disney is always releasing new merchandise with the Skyliner on it, including figures, popcorn buckets, MagicBands. and more! This next line is for the biggest Skyliner stans yet!
Between the corn dog nuggets, Mickey Premium Ice Cream Bars, Mickey pretzels, and cupcakes, you might think snacking healthy in Disney World is impossible, but that’s not true!
BoardWalk Bakery
There are quite a few options on property that’ll satisfy your craving for some fruits and veggies. And today we found a SUPER fresh-tasting snack at the BoardWalk Bakery that’s simple, satisfying, and delicious. [Read more…]
We’ve been taking full advantage of the return to park hopping at Walt Disney World!
Cinderella Castle
We love that in the morning we can have Dole Whip for breakfast and then head over to EPCOT to enjoy the Festival of the Arts in the afternoon. In fact, we park hop so much nowadays that we even broke down what we love and hate about its return to Disney for you! While being able to go from park-to-park in one day again has been fun, there was still a ticket option that was missing and will FINALLY be making its return to Disney World next month!
We’ve seen big crowds in Disney World over the last week.
Magic Kingdom Entrance
The parks were packed last weekend due to the holiday — we saw some of the biggest crowds since Disney reopened last year! We expected things to slow down a bit as the week progressed, but we were hit with some MAJOR traffic today as we drove to the Transportation and Ticket Center.
We’ve had LOTS of delicious cookies, cakes, and coffees from Gideon’s Bakehouse in Disney Springs.
Gideon’s Bakehouse
But, if you really want to rep your love for Gideon’s you can grab themed candles, pins, a mask, and more from the store as well. And now there’s something new for Gideon’s fans to bring home.
