food IS a theme park
Just a few months ago, we were wondering what it would take to get watermelon DOLE whip in Disney World, and then BAM! Our wish was granted!
Watermelon Dole Whip!
We’ve already tried the secret menu Minnie Dole Whip Watermelon Cup (which didn’t exactly taste like watermelon to us…) and we grabbed a cup FULL of watermelon dole whip on its own earlier this year. But now the snack will be coming BACK in a special way!
The state of California is planning on fully reopening its economy on June 15th, effectively ending most pandemic-era restrictions on businesses and in public areas.
Disneyland
While the full extent of how the Disneyland Resort could change after June 15th has yet to be shared, Orange County Register has reported about one of the big changes both guests and Cast Members can expect.
UPDATE: The Monorail is now running and operating. We will continue to monitor the Monorail lines in the coming days and we will let you know of any operating changes as we see them.

When Disney World reopened last year after the pandemic closures many new features were introduced including Park Pass reservations and relaxation stations.
Relaxation Station Sign
At the mask-free relaxation stations, guests were allowed to sit or stand on a designated distancing marker (or a table/chairs in that space) and remove their face coverings. They could then eat a snack or simply relax in the area while distanced from others. But now, the mask-free relaxation stations in the parks are changing.
