food IS a theme park
You know that moment when you just feel so happy about something, you can’t help but smile? That’s how we feel about Ghirardelli Soda Fountain and Chocolate Shop being back open in Disney Springs!
Ghirardelli Soda Fountain & Chocolate Shop
We’ve eaten a ridiculous amount of ice cream from Ghirardelli so far, with the new Gold Rush Sundae and Nacho Sundae (and we don’t even feel sorry about it!), we were happy to find another surprise when we visited today!
It’s always Christmastime at Disney’s Days of Christmas in Disney Springs!
Disney’s Days of Christmas
And today, we spotted A TON of new merch that has us ready to celebrate the holidays! Is it too early to put up the Christmas tree??
If you’re craving treats galore, Disney Springs is a great place to go on a food crawl to pick up some snacks while you’re shopping.
Bubble Waffle
Even though we’ve been able to have a Frozcato and flaming cheese since Walt Disney World’s shopping and dining district reopened, we really missed those HUGE Bubble Waffles! (Just look at how fabulous it is!)
Your dad is probably one of the coolest dudes in the galaxy. And we think that that’s a cause for celebration this Father’s Day!

We’re back again in Disney Springs again today (surprise, surprise!) to check out everything new!
World of Disney
Stores and restaurants have been slowly but surely opening places back up around Walt Disney World’s shopping and dining district, but once a store opens up, that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s going to STAY open.
Greeting cards are a sweet way to tell someone you care about them. But 3D greeting cards are an awesome gift all by themselves!
Lovepop
And, LovePop has reopened with some of the CUTEST cards in all of Disney Springs, featuring your favorite pop-up characters! While we’ve seen adorable Valentine’s Day Cards in the past (Cupid Yoda is a SIGHT), the stand is now getting ready for Father’s Day on June 21st!
The Dole Whip is one POPULAR Disney snack! It may even be the most iconic Disney Parks snack of all time if we do say so ourselves! We know it’s super popular with our readers — it was voted the ultimate champion of our Snack Madness!
Dole Whip at Typhoon Lagoon
So we went ahead and made an entire page devoted to this beloved frozen treat, complete with its history and some of our favorite variations we’ve seen over the years! If you’ve ever wondered WHY Dole Whip is so popular when it comes to Disney Parks, you can read all about its history and how it has evolved over the years!
We are super hyped for all the things coming as a part of the epic EPCOT transformation.

We’ve been hard at work scoping out all the latest news for you this week. Today we have all the details on what’s happening that affects the Disney Parks.

See all of our coverage on Disney park closures and reopenings HERE. We still have a LOT to share with you this week, so let’s jump right in… .
When Disney World theme parks reopen on July 11th, there are going to changes in MANY ways.
Walt Disney World
Fireworks, parades, and character meet-and-greets will be suspended when the parks reopen, and some modes of Disney transportation won’t be in use. For instance, Minnie Vans will be unavailable until further notice as Disney World.
