food IS a theme park
Watching the Monorail glide through Disney World is an incredible sight!
Disney World
In fact, the Monorail is such an iconic part of Disney World that it even has its own merch — we’ve seen Monorail beach towels, PEZ dispenser displays, t-shirts, and more! Could the Monorail further cement its legendary status with a new attraction in the near future?? Here’s what we know!
There have been a LOT of changes since Walt Disney World’s four theme parks reopened last month.
EPCOT
Crowd levels have changed, menus have changed, what restaurants are open has changed, and last week, Disney announced that the theme park hours would be reduced starting September 8th.
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re ready to see what’s new in Disney Springs!
Disney Springs
And, we’ve got plenty of merchandise, construction, and food updates to share with you, so let’s dive right on in!
There’s no ifs, ands, or buts about it, planning a trip to Walt Disney World is a little bit confusing right now.
Magic Kingdom
There are a LOT of changes, from what rides are open and how they’re operating to how many people are in the park.
Our job here at DFB is to give you all the best advice for your Disney vacation planning (and we LOVE doing it!).
Magic Kingdom
But did you know that there are some BIG name celebrities who ALSO have lots of Disney knowledge? Some of them might be pretty surprising!

Whether you or someone you know loves to travel to the Disney theme parks or just shop ’til you drop for new Minnie Mouse ears or Loungefly backpacks, there’s one gift that’s PERFECT…
Mickey Reusable Shopping Bag
…Disney gift cards!
While Mickey Bars are classic, Dole Whips are practically what makes the World go ’round in our opinion! 😍
Pineapple Dole Whip
Although it’s been the best news EVER that Raspberry Dole Whips, the Peter Pan Float, and the Kakamora Float have all made their way back to Disney World (excuse our happy tears), Dole Whip treats don’t stop there.
While there are some unexpected and new changes happening around Disney World, we have been thrilled to see so many projects pick construction back up now that the parks are open!
EPCOT
The pink Cinderella Castle just had its moat filled in, the Grand Floridian Walkway has continued to near its completion, and ALL the construction on EPCOT’s France Pavilion is charging full steam ahead!
Although we can’t pass up dessert in Disney Springs, we’ve been missing those AMAZING Gideon’s chocolate chip cookies since they disappeared from The Polite Pig.
Gideon’s Bakehouse
Buuut, they’ll be making their way back in the shopping and dining district (along with a whole bunch of other goodies) when the official Gideon’s Bakehouse store opens later this year! While the bakery has taken over Rustic Cuff’s previous location, we’ve been keeping an eye on Gideon’s progress as signage pops up and pastry chefs are announced!
It’s now been a little over a month since Disney World re-opened, and we’ve seen some major changes at all four theme parks!
Disney World Bus
On top of the parks seeing some big differences, the transportation around the property has been re-vamped to add more distancing, sanitation, and safety measures on board. And now, there are reports of some more changes that have happened with Disney’s transportation.
