food IS a theme park
We’ve made quite a few trips out to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort to check out the construction progress, and we were even able to run into our old friend, Coconut Man, what a joy!
Coconut Man!
We’ve seen quite a few construction signs, entrance changes, and more at the hotel, and recently we spotted another update!Â
Yak and Yeti Restaurant is a a great go-to table service restaurant at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
Yak & Yeti
And even though it’s been reopened along with Disney’s Animal Kingdom since mid-July and has a new menu, today we noticed a small but significant change to its kids’ menu!
It’s basically been a holiday merchandise EXPLOSION over in Disney World (and we love it)!
Holiday Merchandise
From plush toys to holiday spirit jerseys, and the most adorable holiday light-up ears, our wish list is already incredibly long and keeps growing! But, not all of the holiday items are large and in charge. There are some smaller items, like these super cute holiday phone cases, that we found that can help you feel holly and jolly everyday!
It’s been over three months since Disney World reopened to the public after an extended closure. Over the past few months, Disney has been slowly reopening more resorts, restaurants, and experiences.
California Grill Lounge
Most Disney restaurants have been limiting menus to adhere to the new safety regulations and shortages. We’ve been monitoring these changes while Disney adjusts to reopening under the new conditions. The Landscape of Flavors, Drop Off Pool Bar and Harambe Market are preparing to reopen. Meanwhile, the California Grill has been open for some time. All four menus have reflected changes on Disney World’s website recently.Â
Disney World is chock-full of tasty snacks. In fact, it’s quite the feat to try everything their is to try, and it could take you SEVERAL vacations to Disney World to eat them all!

We swung by this favorite spot today to see if there were any specials to try out and we got let in on a super-secret option — and it might not be an option for long!Â
We have surprising and exciting news for tinkerers and toy-lovers!
Disney Springs
It has long been a thing that large Lego purchases in Disney-owned stores were excluded from any discounts. Well, that’s all changed as of today! We were able to use our Annual Pass discount on a BIG Lego purchase!
Every once in a while, we spot a souvenir sipper in Disney World that’s so cute we can’t stop thinking about it.
Dumbo Sipper & Casey Jr. Popcorn Bucket
That happened to us last year when we saw the CUTE Dumbo Sipper! Yesterday, we spotted this cutie available on Movile Order and now we’ve CONFIRMED that he’s back along with another fan-favorite sipper! And he’s not the only sipper that has made a triumphant return this week.
Disney World has been slowly but surely announcing hotel reopening dates.
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
Though most of the Disney World villas and hotels have reopened, there are some we’re still waiting on. In fact, there are some that are still closed until further notice! It’s time for a status update!
Please Note: This post has been updated to reflect additional reopening dates as announced by Disney.Â
Sprinkles is an easy option for cupcakes in both Disney Springs and Downtown Disney. They’re consistently churning out tasty, specialty cupcakes that we love to try whenever we get the chance.
