food IS a theme park
We’re back again with a roundup of all of the new updates we got at Disney World this week.
Cinderella Castle
You might be wondering just how many things could possibly happen at Disney World in just a week, but the answer is A LOT. We’re at Disney World every single day keeping track of all of the changes — big and small. While we couldn’t possibly include all of these things in just ONE post, we can show you all some of our favorite updates. You ready? Let’s go!Â
Get in the car. We’re going shopping. OK, that came out a little harsh. But when it comes to new merchandise — especially for a Disney vacation — you need your wits about you. Why? Well, there are a LOT of stores out there, and it’s easy to get overwhelmed.
Let’s go shopping!
That’s why we do the shopping for you! We spend HOURS scrolling around on the internet to find the cutest, trendiest items for a GOOD price. Now, if you’re planning a trip to Disney World and need a little shopping inspiration for your little ones, come see what we just found online!
After wait times EXPLODED last week, things got back to normal at Walt Disney World.Â
EPCOT
Wait times were pretty much what we expected this week, with one surprising exception: Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure overtook Frozen Ever After for the title of longest average wait time at EPCOT.Â
There are some foods we probably shouldn’t eat all the time, but we just can’t help it. Cheese? Automatic yes. Bread? Is that even a question? Of COURSE! Plus, it doesn’t help when Disney keeps coming up with all kinds of amazingly tempting new treats.
Let’s mosey down to Trail’s End
When DFB reader Shannon shared a tip about some NEW bread at Trail’s End in Disney World, we HAD to go and check it out. Wanna see if it’s any good? Come along, and let’s eat!
It’s the week of your Disney trip. You’re excited, you’re living your best life, and you are proudly following that “treat yourself mentality”. But once the trip is over, you’re left realizing that some items you “absolutely had to get” you “absolutely now regret”. Whoops.
Isn’t this neatly-stacked wall of plushes SO satisfying?!
Listen, we’ve all been there. But the best part of making mistakes is that we get to learn from them! So instead of wishing we had a time machine to stop us from making those regrettable purchases, we’re going to embrace them just for you.
It is an exciting week at Disney World!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
We get excited any time we get to take something off this closures list. From rides to shows to entire parks, it’s no fun knowing some of your favorite Disney World attractions will be closed while you’re visiting. That’s why we’re so excited to bring you some good news about a Hollywood Studios show this week!
So part of planning a trip to Disney World is deciding where to stay — and there are a lot of choices.
Disney’s Contemporary Resort
Do you choose to stay on Disney World property, and if so, do you book a value, moderate, or deluxe resort? Do you stay at an off-site hotel instead? Do you take advantage of a great deal somewhere else? We’re here to warn you about some deals that may seem too good to be true — that’s because they probably are.
What’s more magical than Disney merch? Disney merch with magical savings, that’s what.
Mickey Balloons
We’re always on the lookout for the best bargains on Disney merch that will make you happy without breaking the bank. So Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo, we got the best deals on Amazon for you!

Is something wrong with Magic Kingdom’s NEWEST merchandise locations?

Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will officially open to Magic Kingdom visitors on June 28th! Disney has been dropping a ton of details about what we can expect on the opening day, however, there was also a bit of merchandise news that’s got us concerned!
EPCOT has undergone a massive multi-year transformation that will soon be complete.
EPCOT
CommuniCore Hall and CommuniCore Plaza are set to open on June 10th, and that should signal the last of the big construction left in EPCOT — for now, at least. CommuniCore Hall will host a Mickey and Friends meet-and-greet, but today, we noticed something else is coming to the building: a new food spot. SAY WHAT?
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
