Disney World is always changing, and that’s part of the fun in visiting often.
Japan Pavilion at EPCOT
Just this year, we’ve seen the opening of a brand new ride, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, as well as the reopening of a classic attraction, Country Bear Jamboree, which got a new show. Test Track in EPCOT is currently closed to be reimagined. However, it’s not just rides that are changing in Disney World — the food is always changing, too, and one Disney World restaurant just announced it will be debuting a new menu.
If you’re someone who drives to Disney World, then you know just how important getting cheap gas can make all the difference in your budget!
Welcome to Disney World!
With gas prices hitting record highs in Florida earlier this year, it’s no wonder you might be looking to save a few cents at the pump. At the end of the day, sometimes driving can be just as expensive as flying — but not with this limited-time deal on cheap gas!
Disney Cruise Line has been revealing some BIG news about its newest ship, the Disney Destiny.
Look at all the patches!
The new ship will be sailing to the Bahamas and the Western Caribbean during its inaugural season, which starts in November 2025. The ship will have a heroes and villains theme and will have a lot of Marvel spaces, including a Grand Hall inspired by Black Panther. However, there will be a lot of things to see and do on the ship, too, and now Disney has revealed all the entertainment you’ll find onboard the Disney Destiny.
Are you planning a Disney World trip? If so, you’re probably getting a lot of advice from family, friends, and co-workers who have been there about things you ABSOLUTELY must-do.
The Beast at Be Our Guest Restaurant
That means you’re probably getting some dining recommendations, too, and yes, we bet that these are recommendations for the popular dining spots, those that EVERYONE talks about ALL the time. However, we’re going to tell you that just because a dining spot is popular does not mean that it’s the best. Now, we’ve eaten at every single restaurant in Disney World, and we’re going to tell you which reservations you should book instead.
Florida is no stranger to severe weather. This state has endured torrential downpours, tropical storms, and even hurricanes, and the 2024 hurricane season is proving to be a busy one. In fact, experts predicted that the 2024 hurricane season will be worse than previous years, calling this a “potentially explosive” weather period.
Rainy Day at Animal Kingdom
Hurricane season runs from the beginning of June through the end of November, putting us right in the middle of it as we enter August. Forecasters predicted 20 to 25 named storms, with between eight and 12 of those strengthening into hurricanes. Now, as families prepare to go back to school and fall creeps its way closer, we have another potential storm on the horizon.

Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
Cosmic Rewind opened as and continues to be EPCOT’s first and only roller coaster. It takes you through the galaxy on a mission to save Earth (Terra) from a Celestial named Eson (or Eson the Searcher). You go screaming through space with Rocket, Groot, Drax, Gamora, and Star-Lord to stop Eson from destroying Earth. There is awesome music, twists, and lots of turns through this high-speed roller coaster. As much as we LOVE this ride, there is one change that we are waiting on.
It’s a great day to be a Marvel fan.
