We’ll admit it — sometimes we forget about certain dining and beverage locations at Disney World, especially if they haven’t been open for a while.
Cool Wash
That’s especially true now that so many places have reopened recently, including Epic Eats and KRNR The Rock Station at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Harambe Market at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

One of the most underrated and special experiences you can do at Disney World is to send mail directly from the Magic Kingdom by dropping it into one of the mailboxes there!
Letters for Santa Mailbox at Liberty Square
You remember actual mail, right? We thought Disney might have forgotten about it, though, because in December, the mailboxes at Magic Kingdom disappeared. A Cast Member even confirmed they had officially been taken away.

A LOT happened at Walt Disney World in 2020!
Cinderella Castle
The biggie was obviously the parks shut down due to the pandemic and then reopened with several new health and safety measures in place.

Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway opened up, we went through four EPCOT festivals, and several major projects continued construction. Oh yeah, we got a PINK Cinderella Castle, too! One of Disney’s most ambitious projects was supposed to hit a BIG milestone last year and it didn’t, which leaves us with the question — what’s going on?
