food IS a theme park
From Hidden Mickey cupcakes to discreet coffee shop entrances, Disney World is ALL about clever secrets! And it’s always fun to discover new insider tips along the way!Â
Twice Upon a Cupcake Hidden Mickey!
With the grand arrival of EPCOT’s Festival of the Holidays, we uncovered some citrusy secrets at one of our favorite booths!Â
The character cavalcades in Disney parks are a really fun way to catch some of our favorite characters — sometimes unexpectedly!
Holiday Character Cavalcade!
Characters can be spotted in the holiday cavalcade in Magic Kingdom, festive flotillas in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, the EPCOT character promenades, and character motorcades in Disney’s Hollywood Studios! These characters often bring a smile to our faces, so we love seeing them parade around the parks. Today, however, we noticed that one of our favorites was missing!
Since Disney World’s reopening in July, dining and shopping locations in the parks have been gradually reopening to begin welcoming guests again.
Magic Kingdom
We can get pretty excited when another dining option reopens — because we LOVE to eat! That’s why we’re excited to share that another spot in Disney’s Animal Kingdom has reopened!
Before we start endlessly day-dreaming about visions of peppermint and gingerbread, there’s still plenty of fall flavors to gush over in Disney World!Â
Gingerbread Cookie
Maybe because fall in Florida doesn’t really cool off until November, but Disney is going BIG with a couple NEW seasonal autumn specials in Animal Kingdom!Â
We’ve got some holiday ears, we’ve stocked up on holiday shirts and other merchandise, and we’ve started to make our way through ALL the holiday snacks…all we need now is some holiday music!
Mickey Snowflake Balloon Ears
Well, thankfully EPCOT has us covered! When we stopped by recently, we were happy to find that JOYFUL! is back and is performing some of our very favorite holiday songs! Ready to sing along? Check out some photos and videos of this fantastic group.
Now that the holidays have officially arrived in Disney World, it looks like the crowds have arrived as well!
EPCOT
Yesterday marked the start of the 2020 EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays. Of course, we were there checking out all of the delicious food and beverage items at this year’s festival! But in addition to the menu items, we also got a taste of the crowds that arrived to check out the new seasonal offerings.
No matter how much pie we eat on Thanksgiving, we can’t get enough pumpkin!Â
