food IS a theme park
You know what’s underrated in Disney World? Disney Springs!
Disney Springs!
People tend to focus so much on the parks that they forget all about Disney’s shopping and dining complex — even though it’s full of fun things to do, delicious food, and plenty of activities for the whole family. We stopped by Disney Springs today to check out what was going on and we found something surprising…not one, but TWO locations were closed today!
We’ve gotten lots of Disney Cruise Line news lately!

Although the Disney Cruise Line has canceled U.S. sailings through July, it’s already looking ahead with its newest ship, the Disney Wish. And as construction continues, Disney is contemplating the future with the addition of another year-round port.
There are quite a few different forms of transportation you can use to get around Disney World including Disney buses, boats, the monorail, and one of Disney’s latest forms of transportation — the Skyliner.
Time for a Trip on the Skyliner?
Recently, the Skyliner’s operating hours were adjusted for one day, and now we’ve got some news about an upcoming Skyliner CLOSURE that you need to know about.
Avengers Campus is opening on June 4th, and we’re getting EXCITED.

We’ve already learned lots about the food, the rides, and more! But today, we’re talking merch. Disney’s recently shared what gear we can grab once Avengers Campus opens, and there’s a LOT of it.
The Three Caballeros at Gran Fiesta Tour in EPCOT have been through quite the journey over the past few months.
Let’s Go for a Ride!
Donald was replaced by a plant, then the plant went missing, and all three Caballeros were replaced by cardboard cutouts. But, earlier today Disney shared that the Three Caballeros animatronics have finally made their way BACK to the ride so we went to check it out for ourselves!
We’ve been closely following the progress on the Brightline train in Florida!

The train will directly transport guests from the Orlando International Airport to a stop in Disney Springs, which will be super helpful when the Magical Express service is discontinued in January 2022. While the train’s Disney Springs stop was originally due to open in 2023, it has been delayed to 2026. But now, construction has reached a BIG milestone!
Who doesn’t love a good all-you-can-eat breakfast?!
Let’s take a visit to Cape May!
When Disney World reopened, several restaurants remained closed for months afterward, not having the resources, staff, or possibly guest demand to operate again. Now, we’re starting to see some of our favorites open back up for business, and today we’re heading over to Disney’s Beach Club Resort to check one out! Cape May Cafe has reopened and we’re ready to utterly stuff ourselves with hearty breakfast food.Â
For months we have been closely following the saga of the Three Caballeros animatronic figures at The Gran Fiesta Tour in EPCOT’s Mexico pavilion.
Gran Fiesta Tour
For a while Donald’s animatronic was replaced by a PLANT (literally) and later all 3 of the animatronics were totally removed and replaced by cardboard cutouts. It’s been one wild ride! But now we’ve got some BIG news — the Three Caballeros (in animatronic form) are BACK!!
Have you gotten sucked into the Squishmallows craze?!
Squishmallows
These cuddly plushes are WILDLY popular right now (sorry, nuiMOs!). We’ve spotted ’em out and about in the parks as elephants, lions, and more. But if you were hoping to snag a Disney-inspired, plush, you’re in luck! Because we’ve spotted some DISNEY Squishmallows online.
100th-anniversary ears, Dole Whip ears, and tropical ears — there are LOTS of Minnie and Mickey ears you can buy in the Disney World theme parks and online.
50th Anniversary Grand Finale Ears
But, if you’re searching for a particular set of ears in Magic Kingdom, odds are you’re probably looking for them and buying them in the WRONG place.Â
