We all know that dining in Disney World is unlike anywhere else!
The eats!
I mean, you know how it goes. You’re strolling through the parks when suddenly you feel the hunger creeping in. And then (as if by magic) you find yourself already in line and paying for your Disney meal. It feels like nine times out of ten, the dining experience is fantastic, but we’re here to talk about that one time out of ten. You know, when you impulse eat at Disney World and know you’re probably going to regret it later. Well, we’ve been there and done that more times than we can count. So, let’s have a chat about a couple of those regrets and hopefully they’ll help you not go through the same experience!
$5,000 + One Disney World Trip = a vacation with memories to last a LIFETIME.
Magic Kingdom
But what does a Disney World trip on that kind of budget LOOK like? We’ve got THREE sample trip itineraries to share with you today to show you, specifically, how to save back for YOUR particular trip and all its different variables.
The 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season has wreaked havoc, with Florida and many other areas still picking up the pieces from Hurricane Milton and Hurricane Helene.

Disney World closed the theme parks, water parks, hotels, and more for the first time in years as Milton made its way over the Orlando area, but made it out with minimal damage. Now, another storm is barrelling through the Caribbean and we’re sharing the latest updates.
Since his surprise return in 2022, Disney CEO Bob Iger has faced several challenges from turning things around for the parks to finding a niche in the world of streaming and even going head-to-head with the Governor of Florida.

But, Iger has announced that he plans to step down in 2026, leaving us wondering just who will take his place. A succession search committee has been at work for a while now, and it sounds like we may be getting closer to having our answer.
Are you heading to EPCOT soon?
EPCOT
If so, and you’re coming with little ones, there’s one thing you absolutely cannot forget (and no, we’re not talking about your appetite) — you need to pack a swimsuit! I know it sounds like a strange choice, so let’s talk about it!
We got creative at the EPCOT Festival of the Arts. We went green for the Flower and Garden Festival. We even snacked our way around the world at the Food and Wine Festival. But soon, the final festival of the year will return to EPCOT; the International Festival of the Holidays will run from November 29th through December 30th! The event begins the day after Thanksgiving — just in time for the holiday season.
EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays
So, what can we expect this year? Well, we’re still waiting to see what kinds of foods and drinks will return, but we do know that the Candlelight Processional will return, along with the Holiday Storytellers, Â Joyful: A Celebration of the Season, and two classic holiday attraction overlays. We also know that there will be tons of new festival merchandise — we’ve got a NEW preview to share!

Planning a Disney World trip can be tricky, but we’re here to help in any way we can!
Magic Kingdom
If you’re traveling to Disney World in November, you’ll need to be aware of some changes, dates, and possible missteps that could befall you during your trip. But don’t worry — we’ll give you all the details on what to look out for so that you have the best November trip possible!
There are two things you need to know about me. First, I’m obsessed with Halloween. I promise I come by it honestly: I was literally BORN on Halloween (yes, before you ask, Halloween birthdays are THE BEST, but also confusing because for a long time, I thought ALL birthdays were celebrated with costumes and everyone giving you free candy).
Halloween in Disneyland
Another thing you should know: I love Disneyland. Now don’t get me wrong, I love Disney World, too, but there are just some things about Disneyland (ahem…the FOOD) that makes me love it more. Part of the reason is because Disneyland goes ALL out for Halloween — and, as a Halloween baby, nothing makes me happier. BOTH parks get decorated for the spooky season (and the gigantic Oogie Boogie above the California Adventure gates just makes me giddy this time of year). Oogie Boogie Bash is the superior Disney Halloween party (don’t come at me, but it’s true). Disneyland also has a really cool Halloween tradition that ties into a third thing you need to know about me: I’m a sci-fi nerd.
