food IS a theme park
Disney World seems to have a hard time letting go of holidays — not just Christmas, but also Halloween.
Stores may no longer look like this, but Halloween remains…
Although Disney World’s Halloween decorations are long gone from the parks, the spirit (get it? 🤣) of Halloween remains. No, we’re not talking about all the Haunted Mansion and Nightmare Before Christmas merchandise you can still grab. We’re talking about a special pair of Minnie ears that just simply won’t go away.
Unless you’re some kind of super-human with LOTS of energy, determination, and luck, it can be tough to ride EVERY attraction in Disney World in one trip (particularly a short one) — even with a little help from Disney Genie+! Even if you don’t end up tackling all the rides in Disney, you can definitely knock out a good amount of attractions if you’re strategic about your days (though depending on the crowd levels it could be challenging!).
Trying to ride everything in Disney World is a tricky mission!
If you’re planning a trip to Disney World, this is an important Genie+ rule you need to know about because it could seriously impact your day!
Drum roll please…live entertainment is continuing to make its return to Disney World!
It feels great to be back at the theatre!
Between the nighttime spectaculars and the revived parades and performances, so much entertainment is coming back to the parks, and we’re here to round up ALL the deets for you!
We’ve been WAITING for this, and we’re so happy that our Disney character dreams are finally coming true! Sure, it was fun to see some Disney friends out and about in some different locations, but a construction wall just doesn’t make a very good backdrop.
Nice to see ya, Olaf!
It seems like Disney FINALLY told the guards to open up the gates, because, for the first time in forever, we can meet all of our Frozen friends in their old meet and greet locations! Love really IS an open door! (Okay, okay, we’ll stop)
When it comes to Minnie Ears, we’ve seen it all.
Green Minnie Ears!
The good, the bad, and the waffle scented. Minnie Ears are such a popular park accessory that Disney has tried to make a pair of ears for everyone. Sometimes, we get amazing ears that make us abandon all responsible money habits, and sometimes we simply do not understand the hype.Â
All four Disney parks reached capacity this President’s Day weekend, which means one thing: crowds, crowds, and more crowds. Basically what we’re telling you is this: be prepared to wait if you’re planning to be in the parks on a holiday weekend.
NO THANK YOU
You probably know to expect long lines for Disney’s popular attractions pretty much all year, but during President’s Day weekend, we even saw long lines for FOOD. *cries in hunger* Seriously, even a few scoops of popcorn will cost you a good 10 minutes (at least) in line. Don’t believe us? We’ll show you!
There are loads of reasons to stay at a Disney World Hotel.Â
Contemporary Resort
There are tons of quick and easy ways to get to the parks, you can qualify for additional time in the parks with Early Theme Park Entry and Extended Evening Hours, and some of the resorts have some amazing food. There are also tons of Annual Passholder perks like discounts! We’re always looking out for the latest Disney deals, and this one is for resort guests and Passholders alike!
Ever felt trapped in a sea of people at Disney World? It’s not a fun experience! In some places, it can feel like no matter where you turn, there is a PERSON in your way; that’s a scarier feeling than being on the Haunted Mansion!
“Everywhere the light touches…is crowded with people”
These insane crowds signal that Disney World is still drawing in TONS of guests, even during the slow season! But is this a good thing, or a bad thing? If you happen to find yourself in Disney World during a holiday weekend, you might encounter some gnarly crowds. What can you do about it? Let’s discuss!Â
If you’re heading to Disney World soon, there are some MAJOR things going on that could significantly impact your trip.
EPCOT Monorail
We are getting closer and closer to experiencing the Star Wars Galactic Starcruiser for the first time, and we’re drawing nearer to the opening date of Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind! With so many changes taking place throughout Disney World, it’s important to stay updated. Let’s take a look at all the construction taking place around the parks so you know what to expect during your next visit!
Remember that line on Disney’s famous PeopleMover attraction that goes, “The PeopleMover is the perfect vehicle for people-watching. So keep your eyes peeled; you never know who you might see!” Well, it turns out you don’t have to take a ride on the PeopleMover to find an unexpected friend in Disney World!Â
You never know who you might see!
Sometimes, wandering off the beaten path or visiting the aquarium can lead you to a character sighting — we love when that happens! During our recent visit to the Magic Kingdom, we found TWO characters hanging out in a new location!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
