food IS a theme park
We spent our day yesterday checking out some interesting developments.
Disneyland
Stroll around Downtown Disney in Disneyland Resort with us to see allllll of the latest news when it comes to food, construction, and merchandise!
While Disneyland Resort remains closed, we’re starting to see some reopening progress.
Disneyland’s Sleeping Beauty Castle
Both Downtown Disney and Lake Buena Vista Street are open to guests for shopping and dining. And now, a hotel is planning to reopen, too!
Welcome back to EPCOT!
Festival of the Arts
Yesterday was the last day of the International Festival of the Arts, so we visited EPCOT to celebrate! While we were there, we checked out some food updates and more. Let’s get started!
It’s been almost one year since Disney welcomed guests aboard their cruise ships.
Disney Cruise Line
When cancelations were first announced last year, guests who were booked for the canceled cruises could opt for a 100% refund or receive a 125% cruise credit for use on a future cruise within 15 months of their original sail date. Disney Cruise Line has since lengthened the window in which the credits could be used as more cruise cancelations were announced (with the most recent extending through April 2021). And, they are extending the use of cruise credits once again.
We all deal with our own struggles — big and small.
Cinderella Castle
From fears and anxieties to allergies and disabilities — visible or invisible, everyone has their own challenges to face. And if you or a family member of yours are facing some of these struggles right now, you might think that a Disney trip is completely out of the question or will be ridiculously complicated to arrange. But, one guest’s experience in the parks shows that might not be the case. Instead, Disney could be just the place to experience something completely new. You could be inspired to take on those challenges like never before.
Got your bag full of Disney items from shopDisney, but you’re waiting for a good sale to come up so you can get them for less?
Fun Disney Face Masks
Well, you’re in luck!! Right now, for a VERY limited time Disney is running a sale online that could save you LOTS of cash on tons of awesome items.
We were browsing the shops in Disney’s Animal Kingdom when we noticed something a little unusual.
DinoLand, U.S.A.
We’ve had some fun finds lately: LOADS of Raya and the Last Dragon gear, unicorn mermaids in EPCOT, and a Stitch plush that’s just a little terrifying. But this new item made us take a closer look — so we just HAVE to show you, too.
We spent a LOVELY day in Disney World’s flagship park yesterday!
Magic Kingdom
Some things are certainly different from the last time we popped into the Magic Kingdom, so we’re bringing you an update with alllll the news in construction and merchandise!
Let’s throw it back to 2020.
Rainbow Collection
Disney released its Rainbow Collection in June to celebrate Pride Month. The collection had TONS of bright merchandise like rain jackets, umbrellas, pins, and more. And then, there were the sparkly Rainbow Ears.
Since Gideon’s Bakehouse opened in Disney Springs, it has drawn in lots and lots of visitors!
Gideon’s Bakehouse
After a very successful soft opening, the unique cookie shop had its grand opening event with new flavors, merchandise, and more! Just a little bit after the shop opened, the virtual queue was already FULL with a wait time of 11 hours (!!!). The people need their cookies and peanut butter cold brew!
