food IS a theme park
We spent a lovely day in Downtown Disney yesterday!
Downtown Disney
The Disneyland theme parks may still be closed for the time being, but we’re able to spend the day at the nearby shopping and dining district. So, we’ve got an update on everything NEW!
We hope you’re ready to join us in The Land pavilion in EPCOT as we grab some lunch!
The Land Pavilion
We’re stopping by a classic EPCOT counter service location in the pavilion: Sunshine Seasons. We noticed a couple of fun additions to the menu when we were checking it out on Mobile Order, and figured we’d swing in to give them a try AND bring you a review while we’re at it! [Read more…]
Disney California Adventure will reopen its gates soon!
You’ll soon be able to enjoy some classic Disneyland food again at California Adventure!
Its limited-time, ticketed event, A Touch of Disney, kicks off on March 18th. And WOW has it been a whirlwind! Tickets sold out super fast, ALL the food options were announced, and we even got a hint of what music will be playing around the park. But as March 18th gets closer, we’re starting to see hints of the event pop around around Disney California Adventure.
Disney is already saving the earth with plastic cheese (it’s true!) and special trash cans.
New Disney Trash Cans!
But there’s more cool environmental stuff coming to Disney World soon!
Can you believe it’s been an entire year since the Disney Cruise Line had its last sailing? As the CDC has continued to extend no-sail regulations and cruises were listed under a new Level 4 risk, the ships have been docked and quiet for some time.
Disney Cruise Line — The Disney Fantasy
Since then, the Disney Cruise Line has continued to extend its closure (currently through August this year) as passengers are given extended periods of time to use their credits to rebook sailings. Disney has started to look ahead to 2022 by scheduling upcoming departures, but there hasn’t been too much news on when the ships will actually start sailing again.
Guys, we’ve gotten some HUGE Disney news today.
Cinderella Castle
Disney announced opening dates for Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and La Crêperie de Paris, a reopening timeline for Disneyland Resort, and even an update on the Disney Cruise Line! But hang tight, because there’s even MORE to share. In Disney’s Shareholders Meeting today, CEO Bob Chapek had an update on the Disney College Program.
The Walt Disney Company hosted a shareholders meeting today, which means LOTS of Disney news!
Magic Kingdom
They released updates on the opening date of Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, when we can start stuffing our face with Crepes in EPCOT, and more. These announcements have us feeling excited about the year to come. But, it wouldn’t be a full update if we didn’t hear something about Disney+, and today we got another update on how the streaming service’s subscriptions are growing.
Disney’s Annual Meeting of Shareholders is currently taking place, and we’re hearing a ton of exciting news from the Company!

Last week, the state of California announced that theme parks can reopen in the red tier at limited capacity, effective April 1st. In response, Bob Chapek has shared more information regarding the long-awaited reopening of the Disneyland Resort.
It’s been about a few years since we first learned that EPCOT would be getting its OWN version of Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure in the France Pavilion!
Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure Ride Vehicle
This ride was originally supposed to open in summer 2020, but due to the global health crisis, the construction and opening date were delayed. We have seen a lot of work being done on the ride and the France pavilion’s expansion. Last year, Disney shared that the ride would be opening in 2021, and now we FINALLY have an official opening date!!
We’ve been looking forward to the extension of EPCOT’s France Pavilion for what feels like eons!
France Pavilion Expansion
With the announcement of a new ride called Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, and a new crepe restaurant, what’s not to like? Disney announced that these attractions would open sometime in 2021, and now we have an official grand opening date for La Crêperie de Paris!
