food IS a theme park
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
And, we’ve got plenty of updates to share with you! So, what are you waiting for? Let’s dive right on in!
There are LOTS of merchandise options available in Disney World — from plushes to shirts and ears and everything in between.

Some of the merchandise options are pricey while others can be a bit more budget-friendly. But, you might be surprised to find just HOW expensive some Disney merchandise can be!
The holidays have begun in Disney World! Well, not officially, but there are a BUNCH of decorations up around the parks.
The Christmas tree is up in Magic Kingdom!
Some holiday decor actually showed up over 2 weeks before Halloween this year! And, as soon as Halloween ended, the decorations invaded, with Christmas trees, wreaths, and more popping up overnight. And, while we love the holidays at Disney World, we do have some very serious questions about some decorations in Magic Kingdom right now!
We’ve already seen lots of holiday decorations and snacks around Disney World as the parks get ready for the festive season.
Hello, Disneyland!
But we haven’t completely forgotten about Thanksgiving, either! We found a couple of tasty Thanksgiving-themed snacks recently (including a fancy cupcake and a huge cake pop). And there’s one treat spot at Disneyland (coming soon to Disney World!) that’s also embracing the Thanksgiving spirit. They’re taking the fall flavors very literally, and we’re SUPER excited and also a little scared. [Read more…]
In case you’re not super familiar with Disney World, you should know that there are some rules you’ve got to follow in the parks.
Pioneer Hall at Disney’s Fort Wilderness
Some of these rules are official (like keep your hands and feet inside the ride), and others are unspoken rules that people just agree to follow (like don’t spoil the magic or block a kid’s view of the fireworks). But we recently saw some rules at Disney World that we’ve never seen inside the parks before. Check out these new rules to see how well you’re following them on your Disney vacations.
It’s finally November, which in Disney World, means the start of the holiday season!
The holidays are here!
After Halloween on October 31st, Cast Members worked overnight to transform Magic Kingdom into a Christmas-y wonderland, complete with a gigantic tree, wreaths down Main Street, U.S.A., and so much more. But, it seems that not every spot in Disney World got the holiday memo…because we’re living in a really weird Twilight Zone version of the parks right now!
Travel has been greatly impacted by the current global pandemic.
Air travel into the U.S. has been restricted
The United States has had restrictions on international travel since early 2020, but those restrictions will soon be lifted for vaccinated travelers. Cruises have also had to change their protocols and requirements, with Disney Cruise Line requiring that all passengers age 12 and over be vaccinated. With travel picking up again, we’ve seen airlines reintroduce routes to places like Orlando, and now, another airline is expanding its service.
The Mandalorian, WandaVision, classic Disney films, and more — there’s a whole LOT to watch on Disney+ already, and more is coming soon!
