Disney World has a TON of merchandise you can buy during your vacation!
Need some new Disney merch?
Stores have everything from clothes to toys to Christmas ornaments. And, while we love doing some shopping when we’re in the parks or at Disney Springs, we don’t love the long checkout lines that are pretty common. Luckily, Disney has introduced a new Mobile Merchandise Checkout system at a few stores, and the system was just added in another location!

Cinderella Castle
From bygone rides and restaurants to new parks, new hotels, and new attractions, Disney World looks very different than it did in 1971. Oh and let’s not forget the MAJOR change in prices! Some of these “how it started, how it’s goings” might really surprise you! [Read more…]

We’re less than three months away from the grand opening of Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser at Disney World! This highly-anticipated “hotel” takes guests to a galaxy far, far away for a two-night immersive experience, unlike anything we’ve seen at Disney World!

A big component of the Galactic Starcruiser experience appears to be the one-of-a-kind character interactions guests will be able to have. In fact, guests themselves can assume the role of their own character, whether that’s to join the rebel alliance or to join forces with the First Order.
We might still be celebrating the Festival of the Holidays, but the start of the 2022 EPCOT International Festival of the Arts is just around the corner!

But now we’ve gotten even more news about this festival, and it’s made for fans of a certain adorable orange Disney character.
Ah, beignets, how we love thee. Whether they’re peppermint, Mickey-shaped, or extra boozy, we love those bites of fried joy!
Peppermint Beignets
