food IS a theme park
You won’t believe who gave us a tour of The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers! This new restaurant is located at Disney’s BoardWalk and while we have dined there when it opened, we just got the most incredible tour.

Gwendolyn Rogers herself took us around her restaurant and pointed out some of her favorite hidden details. We are still in shock, and we can’t wait to share it all with you!
Let’s go dining at Disneyland!
Naples Ristorante
The Disneyland Resort is known to have some really amazing dining options and the Downtown Disney District is home to several. One of our favorites, Naples Ristorante E Bar, recently changed up its menu so we headed over to try out some new offerings and see if this location is still worth visiting!
Some new eats are making their way down the bayou to Tiana’s Palace just in time for the opening of Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Disneyland Park!
Tiana’s Palace
Disney just announced some new eats and an adorable souvenir straw clip that will be available to celebrate the opening of the rethemed ride on the West coast.
If you’ve been paying attention to Disney news over the past few years, you’ve probably heard the name Reedy Creek Improvement District (RCID). This now-transformed and newly named special district essentially functions as its own government and has done so since 1967, when it was first created.
Cinderella Castle
The RCID has undergone some significant changes over the years including being renamed to the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District (CFTOD) and falling under the control of Florida’s governor. But, just how did Disney end up creating its own government?
It’s almost time to decorate!

Believe it or not, Thanksgiving is only a few weeks away, and in turn, it’s nearly time to start decorating for the Christmas season for those who celebrate. If you’re looking for some Disney-themed Holiday display options, get on over to Home Depot ASAP.
Disney Cruise Line is a great vacation option if you’re looking for a way to relax while getting a taste of Disney fun.

The cruise line offers a variety of sailings and itineraries to various locations around the globe, all complete with Disney characters, creative dining options, fun onboard activities, and Broadway-style entertainment. It’s a blast! But for one group of people, a Disney cruise was recently a REAL lifesaver.
We had a BLAST at the first 2024 Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party on November 8th!
2024 Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party
There is lots to do at this annual holiday party in Magic Kingdom! You can enjoy exclusive entertainment, free cookies and hot cocoa, shorter wait times for attractions, and, of course, the famous snoap on Main Street, U.S.A. There are also fun holiday character meet and greets to enjoy, but there’s one we recommend skipping, and the reason why is a SECRET we’re going to share with you!
It was a BIG weekend for Disney fans. Not only was it the opening nights of Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party and Disney Jollywood Nights at Disney World, but the D23 Brazil expo was also happening all weekend long in São Paulo.

Disney fans were treated to a weekend full of fun, including some exciting announcements about what is coming soon for Disney fans!
Disney World has some pretty amazing rides, don’t you think?
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
I mean, you’ve got the classics like Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion, the thrill rides like TRON Lightcycle/Run and Tower of Terror, and then everything in between. And for some of those rides like Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, you can’t just rock up to the entrance and wait in line. You’ve got to get a Virtual Queue if you want to ride. Thinking about that and the fact that it’s been using the Virtual Queue system since it opened, we were wondering if you thought it was time for a change, so we reached out to you to get your thoughts. Well, we asked and you delivered!
Disney World is so much more than just its theme parks!
Magic Kingdom
There is so much to see, do, and experience around the hotels you’d need to plan an entire trip just to get through it all. But, exploring some Disney World hotels isn’t quite as easy — or cheap — as it is to visit others. Three Disney World hotels operate a bit differently than the rest — and that’s true when it comes to parking, too.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
