food IS a theme park
Is it too early for Christmas treats? You be the judge. If you ask us, we won’t say no to a little gingerbread!
Contempo Cafe
We were checking out the menus at the resorts when we spotted some EARLY arrivals to the Disney Christmas treat scene! We’re taking a look at the Christmas vibes coming at us from Disney’s Contemporary Resort!
We noticed a new addition to the Slinky Dog Dash queue in Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Slinky Dog Dash
Recently, several of the park’s attractions have received new plexiglass barriers, including Rise of the Resistance and Tower of Terror. And now, the Slinky Dog Dash queue has also received a makeover in the form of plexiglass dividers!
Earlier this year, Disney World hosted the NBA as they finished the remainder of their season at the ESPN Wide World of Sports.
NBA Merchandise
Although the NBA season has ended, we had heard that more basketball — this time in the form of several college basketball events — could be headed to Disney World soon. But, it seems those plans have now changed.
From a Brain Cupcake(!)Â to all kinds of pumpkin spice flavored treats, we’ve had a LOT of Halloween and fall snacks all around Disney World.
Brain Cupcake!
But, the fun ain’t over yet! A little while ago, we shared that more treats were headed to the Disney World hotels and Disney Springs, and we recently got the chance to try one a SUPER LIMITED TIME treat that’s now available at Disney’s Contemporary Resort!
Listen. 2020 has been a WILD ride. There have been times when even the animatronics wanna throw in the towel and fast-forward to 2021. We found something today that really brightened up our day, year, and possibly entire life.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
We wandered over to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort to grab a cold one and take in the view of Seven Seas Lagoon. We expected it to be a typical day at the Poly with construction updates and possibly eat a new treat. We did NOT expect to be swept off our feet with the return of an INCREDIBLE coconut cup.
We are incredibly excited for the premiere of Season 2 of The Mandalorian, coming in just a few days!

A fan-favorite attraction in Magic Kingdom has been closed for far, far too long.
Magic Kingdom’s Tomorrowland
The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover closed a few days prior to the parks’ closures in March and has yet to reopen. Since then, refurbishment end dates have been announced, extended, and rescinded. Now, there has been another extension.
Season 2 of The Mandalorian officially kicks off on Disney+ this Friday.

And you know what that means…MORE Baby Yoda merch. We honestly didn’t think that was even possible, since Baby Yoda is literally everywhere!!
A number of things have changed at Disney World since the park closures earlier this year.
Crescent Lake Friendship Boat
One thing that’s been rather different has been transportation. Disney buses have a new loading and seating procedure, there are dividers and other safety measures in place in the Monorails, and the EPCOT monorail is not available. The Friendship Boats that take guests at certain resorts to and from EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios are also not available at the moment…but they will be soon!
There are quite a few construction projects going on around Disney World, and we’ve been keeping an eye on all of them, including the changes going on to the Magic Kingdom entrance sign.

But now, a NEW construction project has announced that will affect some of the most iconic signs at Walt Disney World!
