food IS a theme park
HOORAY for HOLLYWOOD SCOOPS!!
Hollywood Scoops
Why?? Because this ice cream stop in Disney’s Hollywood Studios has come up with one doozy of a holiday treat, and you have simply GOT to see the Peppermint Bundt Cake Shake! [Read more…]
Happy Holidays!! Although parades and character meet-and-greets have been suspended for the time being at Disney World, we have absolutely LOVED seeing Mickey, Minnie, and tons of our friends in the character cavalcades at all 4 parks!
Mickey & Friends Motorcade at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
During Halloween, we got some specially themed cavalcades that had us saying “boo to you!” But, now we’ve moved on to “the most wonderful time of the year” and one new JOLLY motorcade has arrived at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Grab your snoap machine and join us as we celebrate the season!
One of our favorite parts of the holiday season has to be all of the seasonal treats that make their way to Disney World!
Gingerbread Mickey Mouse Cookie
‘Tis the season for SNACKS! Guests will find several holiday menu items in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, like Mickey’s Holiday Cookie and Olaf’s Snow Flurry Cupcake. But as excited as we are to eat our way around the park, we’ll be sippin’ on this holiday treat!
PHEW! It’s been a full day in the parks as the holiday season kicks off all around Disney World’s property!
Santa!
Even though the parks have transformed into a Winter Wonderland for Christmas, the parks are still looking ahead to next year as guests plan to visit for Disney World’s 50th anniversary.
Aw, c’mon… who doesn’t love THIS pair?!
Chip ‘n’ Dale Make a Holiday Appearance in Magic Kingdom
And now Chip ‘n’ Dale have been given their very own MagicBand tribute! But don’t worry… that doesn’t mean they’ll start taking themselves too seriously. 😉 [Read more…]
The holiday season has officially arrived at Disney World! While we’ve already checked out some decorations, merchandise, and plenty of snacks, November 6th marks the ACTUAL arrival of all things Christmas in the parks and resorts!
Red Velvet Holiday Cupcake
Today, we’re in Magic Kingdom to scope out some of the latest seasonal snacks to hit the scene! Our travels have brought us to Westward Ho, where you can score some new CHURROS!
All four Walt Disney World theme parks have reopened, as have many of the Resort hotels, but some things like the water parks and certain restaurants and hotels remain closed.
Winter Summerland
Winter Summerland Miniature Golf — one of the mini golf courses in Disney World — had not yet reopened but that all changed today!
The holidays are pretty different in Disney World this year, but one thing hasn’t changed all that much. It’s still one of the most crowded times!
Holiday Crowds
Yes, that is a picture from today in Magic Kingdom as folks crowd around in the Frontierland bottleneck to watch a (granted very cool) Christmas Cavalcade. Capacities are limited this year to 25%, but that hasn’t stopped crowding at all times, even to the point of making social distancing an issue.Â
Last month, we learned that EPCOT’s Frozen Ever After attraction would close for refurbishment in early November.
Frozen Ever After
That refurbishment was scheduled through November 6th (today), meaning that its reopening date was set for November 7th. However, Frozen Ever After is open today, a day earlier than expected!
If you haven’t noticed, we’re enjoying a holiday treat-PALOOZA in Disney World today!
Pceos Bill Tall Tale Inn & Cafe
And we’re stopping by Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe for our next seasonal snack! This Frontierland spot is the place for Mexican fare served counter service style in Magic Kingdom. And if you find yourself here during this festive time of year, you may have a tough time deciding whether you should fill your stomach with tacos or holiday treats. Well, Pecos Bill has come up with a solution to that dilemma… sort of.
