food IS a theme park
We’re back again this weekend for another look at wait times across Disney World!
Welcome to Disney World!
We saw wait times continue to drop a little lower this week, likely helped by the weather, and the end of the spring break season. Let’s take a closer look to see which park had the longest wait!
We can now say that one saga was worth the wait in Disney World: the PeopleMover is FINALLY open!!
It has been WAY too long!
After over a year, we finally got to cruise around Tomorrowland today, and oh, how we’ve missed this attraction.
Hey, DFB readers! We’re busy eating our way around Disney World (as we do), and wanted to take some time to update you on some restaurant changes this week!
Who doesn’t love a Mickey cupcake?
So while we were busy hanging out at the Spice Road Table Bar, drinking coffee with tiny cookies in it, admiring the colors of a BRIGHT neon drink, and eating off the kid’s menu, we were also checking Disney World menus for changes and updates!
Even though Disney World has been open since last July, there are many things that have yet to make their return to the parks, including certain restaurants (we still miss you, Casey’s Corner) and experiences, like nighttime shows and fireworks.
At least we have rides!
We only JUST got park hopping back in January, and we’re still missing things like preshows for certain attractions due to social distancing. One thing that we hear about a LOT from readers is an experience that has been absent since the summer — FastPass+.
There is SO much construction and makeover work being done in Magic Kingdom right now. Disney World is spiffing up just about EVERYTHING for the big 50th anniversary celebration set to happen later this year!
Get ready for some magic!
Cinderella Castle has been in the middle of a SERIOUS glow-up since last year — it got a new paint job, new fancy banners, new ribbons on the spires, and a stage in front of the castle has been under construction for a while.
Is anyone else having construction fatigue at Disney, or is it just us??
EPCOT Construction Walls
There have been a LOT of changes taking place at Disney World, and we’ve been tracking them all. We took a look at all of the updates this week and are here to give you all the deets!
Last year, the Wondermade Marshmallows Kiosk opened in Disney Springs (hint: you can find it near T-Rex Restaurant).
Marshmallowy goodness
Here you can get some wonderful homemade marshmallows, including ones with unique flavors that might quite likely blow your mind? Beer Marshmallows — yep! Birthday Cake Marshmallows — you bet! In fact, we’ve even had Churro Marshmallows here! CHURRO!
Disney has parks and resorts in several spots around the world, and each location has its own unique charm — and merchandise.
ALOHA from Polynesian Village Resort
Recently we’ve seen items from Disney’s Aulani Resort come “visit” Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, and it has been fun to see new styles and characters represented. Today, we even spotted a pair of Aulani Minnie Ears we hadn’t seen yet!
Nothing complements a day by the pool like a refreshing drink or cocktail, and luckily at Disney World, there’s no shortage of Pool Bars!
The Drop Off
Today we popped over to the Drop Off Pool Bar over at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort, which has really stepped up its cocktail game lately, and we were happy to find a new drink on the menu!
Disney World is the Most Magical Place on Earth, but the Most Perfect Place on Earth? Not unless your idea of “perfect” is being taunted by a s’more.
Magic Kingdom
We typically have an AMAZING time when we visit Disney World, but we won’t pretend that everything always goes as smooth as the Skyliner (or, you know, not). For example, here are five things that went hilariously horribly wrong this week!
