food IS a theme park
New rides, new lands, and a new focus for Disney that could…stall it all?
Cinderella Castle
Disney’s made some big announcements recently that could change your trips to Disney World forever.
What’s better than a good Disney snack? How about a good Disney snack HACK?

Today is extra fun because we’re taking a walk down memory lane and sharing a hack for a snack we all wish was back at the parks. Ready? Let’s go!
Souvenirs are all part of the Disney World experience. You walk into the Emporium on Main Street USA, take one look at the colorfully stocked shelves, and before you know it your arms are full of 5 stuffed animals, 2 mugs, and a Spirit Jersey, and you’re standing there wondering “How did this even happen?”
Magic Kingdom
Yup, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of buying souvenirs during your Disney trip. But as your friends here at DFB, we’re gonna let you in on the souvenirs you should totally stay away from and save a bit of that extra cha-ching in your pocket for something a little more worth it (and maybe even an extra snack or two).
For YEARS now (literally, years) a serious battle has been going on between Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and the Walt Disney Company (first with former CEO Bob Chapek and then with current CEO Bob Iger). But things have finally changed in a major way.
Disney vs. DeSantis
Legislation, press conferences, official statements, and MORE — this battle has involved everything from a federal lawsuit to threats of building a state prison next to Disney World. It has been one interesting ride — so what’s happened now? Well, let us get you up to speed.
Attention, Disney World visitors! We have an important announcement that may impact your upcoming plans. You’re going to want to hear this, so listen up.
Magic Kingdom
Every once in a while, a Disney World park closes EXTRA early. We’re talking before sunset!

Should you AVOID the Magic Kingdom tomorrow, June 21st? Let’s talk about it. [Read more…]

Universal’s Epic Universe construction is well underway, and today we’re learning much more about one of the lands that will be part of the brand-new theme park — Dark Universe!

I am always nervous about losing my ID at the airport, how about you?
Orlando International Airport
You have to have it out at TSA, then you have to stow it quickly because you can’t have it in your hand or your pocket as you go through the body scanners or metal detectors. And then I’m always carrying a larger bag than I typically carry as my personal item, but still have my important items like my wallet and cell phone stored in my smaller bag I will carry with me every day at my destination. I thought I had found a perfect solution for this by wearing a belt bag — but then I found out these can cause some problems at the airport that you might not be expecting.
