food IS a theme park
It’s been a pretty hopping day so far at Disney Springs as we’ve spotted lots of new merchandise throughout the district!
Disney Springs
While we’ve already seen the Alice in Wonderland Phone Case, new Chapel face masks, and a VERY pink Corkcicle, our shopping spree isn’t over yet!
Curiouser and curiouser, indeed!
Disney Style
From new face masks to Corksicles, we’ve spotted some awesome new merch on our visit to Disney Springs today.
The new health and safety precautions at Disney Springs require all guests to wear a face covering in order to enter. But if you’re looking to stock up on extra masks while you’re there, we found some new designs at Chapel Hats!

Earlier this week, we also spotted some super-fancy face masks at this store (including a sequined design!), so we’ve been on the lookout for any new arrivals.
Disney World is known as the Most Magical Place on Earth — and we agree! While the parks already sprinkle pixie dust on your vacation regularly, they’ll even go the EXTRA mile with a few surprises!
Festival of Fantasy Parade
Although you might be able to meet Mickey or watch the Festival of Fantasy parade at times that work for you, there are a few rare things that happen in Disney World that most people don’t get the chance to see…unless you know where (and when!) to look!
The counter service window at Wine Bar George — The Basket — has rolled out a new Corkcicle design in celebration of a popular frozen beverage!
The Basket at Wine Bar George
If you’re new to the term “Corkcicle” let us introduce you! You can purchase these adorable, reusable cups at The Basket, and they come filled with your choice of frozen drink. We’ve spotted a few new designs lately, like the Colorblock Corkcicle, and now we have another gorgeous option to add to the lineup!
At this time, Disney World hasn’t revealed what their virtual queue system will look like when the theme parks reopen in July. But it seems like it is all but certain Disney will implement SOME sort of virtual queue experience, but it’s scope and intricacies are unknown at this time!
World of Disney Virtual Queue sign
We’ve seen Virtual Queues already in place at some experiences like World of Disney for when crowds get large. At Universal Orlando, not every attraction had virtual queues, so we may not see EVERY ride and attraction at Disney World add one. That said, we have a few ideas for which rides we think TOTALLY need a Virtual Queue in Disney World.
Greetings from Disney’s Contemporary Resort! We’re stopping by this classic Disney World Resort hotel to share with you some of our favorite eats and drinks! The Contemporary is a Deluxe Resort, which means that they’re going to be offering TONS of food options, from Signature Restaurants to Character Dining to Quick Service.

The Contemporary is also on the Monorail loop (literally — the Monorail runs THROUGH the hotel!), making it super easy to dine at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa as well as Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort.

And, of course, this also means it’s a quick ride (and walk!) to Magic Kingdom. Let’s take a closer look at what dining options the Contemporary has to offer!
We’ve been exploring what a reopened Disney Springs is like for a few weeks now.
Disney Springs
With new health measures, requirements, and capacity limitations; things have definitely changed in Disney World. The reopening of the theme parks is on the horizon, so we’re taking a look back at what our first steps back in Disney mean. Here’s everything we’ve learned from two weeks in a reopened Disney World!
Walt Disney World takes up thousands upon thousands of acres in Florida.
Cinderella Castle
And it should come as no surprise that Disney has to pay a LOT of taxes on said acreage.
Walt Disney World resort hotels are getting ready to reopen soon, like, really really soon.
Boardwalk Entrance
And as guests get ready to head back to Walt Disney World, things are getting back to normal on My Disney Experience.
