food IS a theme park
Hey, friends! We’re back with another DFB Video covering all the latest Disney news!
Goofy

Who doesn’t love a TV show filmed at a Disney theme park?
Cinderella Castle at Magic Kingdom
Television has been synonymous with Disney theme parks since BEFORE the first one even opened. Literally, the Disneyland television series debuted a year before the park, and the opening day live telecast was one of the highest viewed programs EVER at the time of its airing. Given that, it’s perhaps no surprise that MANY television shows have filmed at Disneyland and Walt Disney World over the years, with some producing more memorable episodes than others.Â
Disneyland’s ORIGINAL nighttime spectacular is ALMOST back.Â
Did we mention there was LOTS of fire before?
Fantasmic! – the journey into Mickey Mouse’s mind that takes place on the Rivers of America each night – has been a staple at Disneyland since the show opened in 1992. Or it was until April of 2023, when the massive Maleficent dragon animatronic that served as the show’s climax caught fire. While no one was hurt, the fire did significant damage to the show’s infrastructure, and the show hasn’t run at Disneyland since. Now, that’s about to change.Â
Disney’s Animal Kingdom has already seen its fair share of changes recently with retiring the flotillas, and a new park map.
The burger
But when we noticed a new menu item at a signature Disney World restaurant had just debuted, we HAD to run out and see if it was as good as Disney World claimed it was! [Read more…]
If you’ve been following us for a while, you know we like to shop on Amazon A LOT.
Amazon Box
Okay, so that makes us pretty much like everyone else, right? But one thing we love to do is hunt down Amazon deals, especially on things you might need for Disney trips, Disney souvenirs, and other Disney merchandise. Well, we’ve done it again! We’ve tracked down some great Disney deals on Amazon that all cost under $20!
So we’re not always excited when something new comes to Disney Springs (unless it concerns food, then, well, we get VERY excited).
Disney Springs
Disney Springs does have live entertainment (we’ve often seen live bands here), not to mention a cool art walk, but other than that, there’s not much to do there at night. But now, a new nighttime show coming to the shopping and dining district — and it’s could change EVERYTHING.
Dreamworks Land looks SO COOL and we can’t wait for it to open soon!
Shrek and Donkey meet and greet
Universal recently teased us with a preview of what awaits us when Dreamworks Land’s construction walls finally come down and we’re able to experience new rides, new shows, and hug our friends once again in a new place. But that’s not all you’ll be able to do here… hey, we’ve gotta eat, right? [Read more…]

Picture it: You’re in Disney World, having the time of your life! You’re hitting all the rides you want using Disney Genie+ and by checking wait times on the My Disney Experience app. You’re eating everything on your Dining Bucket List with a little help from Mobile Order and all the Advance Dining Reservations you’ve made. Then suddenly it’s the perfect moment to snap that precious picture of your little one with the one and only MICKEY MOUSE! And THAT’S when it happens…
Hey, Mickey!
You’ve received the dreaded “Low Battery” message on your phone. We’ve all been there… and frankly, we’ve been there more often these days with all of the trip planning tools available on our phones, which also happen to be our cameras. You’ve got to recharge your phone, but what if you don’t have your own charger, or maybe you’ve forgotten your charging cord? Good news: There’s a fix to this problem right in the Disney World parks and Resorts… and it’s available at more locations than you might think! [Read more…]
We often talk about the importance of packing comfortable shoes, hats, extra socks, and more for Disney World — but have you considered bringing your horse?
Cinderella Castle
