With the reopening of Disney World parks set for July 11th, a lot of folks with June reservations have been left in limbo.

Shortly after the official announcement of a reopening date, Disney’s hotel reservations and ticket sales systems went dark so Disney could begin to implement their new reservation system. That meant no new reservations and no modifications to existing reservations. For many folks who just wanted to reschedule their June reservations, that was frustrating. Well, now Disney is allowing guests with check-in dates prior to June 21st to call and modify their reservations.
We know you guys have a lot of questions about the Universal Studios theme parks grand reopening today!

So far, we’ve been running around to give you guys some perspective on what it was like arriving at the parks as well as how the crowds have been today!
Disney is always working on some crazy new tech, and WE’RE always looking out for their newest innovations!

Imagineers have been doing a lot of work on tech for the parks and a LOT of that has to do with robotics. Disney is at the forefront of animatronic and entertainment robotics engineering, so they come up with crazy new inventions ALL THE TIME. Recently, we’ve spotted a realistic robot handshake and a patent for an autonomous park-roaming robot. Today, we spotted a NEW patent and this one focuses on a robot’s…skin? You read that right! Take a look!
We’ve been eating our way around all the newly reopened restaurants at Disney Springs. Now it’s time to take a trip over to Disney Springs’ local observatory, Planet Hollywood to see how the food has fared since reopening.

While we’ve already taken you with us to Terralina Crafted Italian, Morimoto Asia, The Polite Pig, and more, we’re heading back to Flavortown to see if the food is a hit or miss.
Warm weather means more time outside! And since we’re spending way more time at home, our pools may be getting a lot more love this summer (even if they’re the tiny inflatable kind!). You may be heading outside to work on your tan or to throw the ultimate backyard barbecue, but don’t leave that pool neglected!
A Dip in Your Resort Pool May Be Just the Break Your Day Needs!
Let’s throw one EPIC at-home Disney pool party! We found swimsuits, towels, pool toys, and more that will guarantee your pool will be your favorite destination this summer!
While some Disney-owned businesses have reopened at Disney Springs including The Daily Poutine, B.B. Wolf’s Sausage Co., and more recently Once Upon a Toy, we can now add Amorette’s Patisserie to the list!

And you know if there’s one thing Minnie loves (aside from Mickey!), it’s an adorable accessory or two. Which is why this new duo of Mickey and Minnie Donut Beverage Floats is the perfect pair to go along with it! [Read more…]

And, like so many, we fell in love with Forky when Toy Story 4 dropped last year and we’re so excited to share that a new piece of Forky merchandise was spotted in Disney Springs today!
The unprecedented closure of Disney World has continued for more than two months now and we are missing the parks.
Magic Kingdom Has Had an Interesting 2020 So Far!
Disney has never had to contend with a global crisis such as this one. In the past, closures have been extremely limited and the largest singular change to daily operations came in the wake of the 9/11 attacks with added security measures. Now, we’re looking at a Disney World that could be VERY different when we return. So, when will Disney World be normal again?Â
