food IS a theme park
A fan-favorite attraction in Magic Kingdom has been closed for far, far too long.
Magic Kingdom’s Tomorrowland
The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover closed a few days prior to the parks’ closures in March and has yet to reopen. Since then, refurbishment end dates have been announced, extended, and rescinded. Now, there has been another extension.
A number of things have changed at Disney World since the park closures earlier this year.
Crescent Lake Friendship Boat
One thing that’s been rather different has been transportation. Disney buses have a new loading and seating procedure, there are dividers and other safety measures in place in the Monorails, and the EPCOT monorail is not available. The Friendship Boats that take guests at certain resorts to and from EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios are also not available at the moment…but they will be soon!
There are quite a few construction projects going on around Disney World, and we’ve been keeping an eye on all of them, including the changes going on to the Magic Kingdom entrance sign.

But now, a NEW construction project has announced that will affect some of the most iconic signs at Walt Disney World!
If you haven’t been on Rise of the Resistance recently, you might notice some changes the next time you get on. Spot the difference?
Rise of the Resistance
Okay, okay, we’ll tell you. We recently learned that Rise of the Resistance in Disney’s Hollywood Studios Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge would be receiving an update including some plexiglass barriers. Now, these barriers have officially arrived.
The travel industry has had to deal with months of cancellations and shifts due to the global health crisis.

We’ve been keeping up with all of the trip suspensions and updates to policies over at Adventures by Disney. Now, those changes are extending all the way into 2021 and, in some cases, 2022.
The Disney Castle Collection has been wowing us with beautiful merchandise for the past few months now.

Each collection includes a figure, a notebook, an ornament, a collectible pin, and a puzzle; ALL inspired by a certain Disney Castle. We’ve seen Cinderella’s Castle, Mulan’s Castle, and the Frozen Castle. Now, it’s the OG princess’s turn.
Is there anything better than seeing all of the awesome creatures over at Disney’s Animal Kingdom? Oh yeah…seeing BABY animals!
@drmarkatdisney
Quite a few new babies have joined the Animal Kingdom family in the past few months including a giraffe, aardvark, and babirusa. Now, another new baby has joined the bunch and he’s one of the CUTEST we’ve ever seen!
We’re running out of room on our shelves for cute souvenir sippers and popcorn buckets from Disney World!
Dumbo Sipper & Casey Jr. Popcorn Bucket
That doesn’t change the fact that we still get excited when one pops up! You might remember the super cute Dumbo Sipper from last year. What if we told you it might be BACK!?
We may not have worn our Halloween costumes yet, and the Thanksgiving turkey hasn’t even been ordered (much less cooked), but Disney is moving into the holiday season already!
Holiday Dish Towel at Beach Club Marketplace
We’ve seen LOTS of holiday merchandise released lately, but one in particular caught our eye and now that we’ve seen it in action we are in LOVE!
