Do you stay to see the “Kiss Goodnight” in Magic Kingdom each evening you’re there? Well, we just found another little secret detail we have SO many questions about.

By 7 Comments

You don’t have to look very hard to see what we love about Gideon’s Bakehouse at Disney Springs.

Gideon’s Bakehouse

While we’re always excited to see what new offerings they come up with, help celebrate their big milestones at Disney World, and occasionally snag a special menu item (or two), not everything is as perfect as we would like it to be.

Wait Times at Disney World’s Most Popular Ride Are DOWN 53%

By Leave a Comment

Many people may think the most popular ride in Disney World is over at Disney’s Hollywood Studios…but they’d be mistaken!

Animal Kingdom

It makes sense — Hollywood Studios is full of popular rides with very long wait times. However, the culprit for the longest wait time is hiding over at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. It’s Flight of Passage in Pandora — The World of Avatar, but now we’ve got a good update to share.

Disney popcorn. It’s an iconic snack for good reason.

Popcorn!

Not only is it one of the first things you smell when you enter a Disney Park, but it also comes in a variety of flavors throughout the resort, from the fun mixes at Kat Saka’s Kettle in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge to those special blends you can buy in the Magic Kingdom to take home. But we bet there’s something you don’t know about that popcorn.

By 3 Comments

Disney World is all about celebrating special occasions, especially anniversaries.

Gideon’s Bakehouse

It doesn’t seem like it was that long ago when we were celebrating Disney World’s 50th Anniversary. Then we celebrated the anniversary of The Walt Disney Company, which has been around for 100 years.

The Disney World Parks have changed a lot since COVID-19 shut them down.

Magic Kingdom

It’s been nearly four years since the closures, yet some of the major changes put in place still remain.
