The storm made landfall in Florida last night and many businesses and tourist destinations were closed in preparation for the bad weather. Among those locations that closed was Universal Orlando, but they’ve now released information about reopening.
When it comes to planning a trip to Disney World, you’ve got it down to a science, right?
EPCOT
You’ve got all the flight details sorted. You know which hotel you’re going to stay at. And you’ve already got your plan of attack for how you’ll tackle all the Disney World eats. Sounds like you’re all set, right? Well, if you’re planning on hitting up EPCOT during one of its many festivals, there’s this new problem and it’s one that we’ve never experienced until now. So let’s talk about it!
There’s nothing we love more than a fun Disney snack!
Disneyland
I mean, we are the Disney FOOD Blog after all, and over the years, we’ve tried thousands of snacks in the Disney parks. But sometimes, we just want to go back to the classics — the treats you find at snack carts on Main Street, U.S.A. or in bakery cases around the park. And when we found out that Disneyland Park was doing a new version of a classic treat, we just had to get our hands on it!

We go to Disney World every day and have found these six upgrades to make our days in the parks and our time at our resorts more enjoyable. We are letting you in on a little secret as these six upgrades can help make your time at Disney World easier.
Four years ago, Disney World closed and then later reopened due to the global pandemic. After four years, some things still have not returned to normal in Disney World.
Japan Pavilion in EPCOT
For example, much of Disney World’s streetmosphere entertainment, like the Citizens of Main Street, have never returned. Some restaurant offerings (like afternoon tea at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort) never returned. Although a lot of things are now back to normal, even some restaurant hours haven’t been the same since 2020. One EPCOT restaurant, though, has finally returned to being open seven days a week, for the first time since 2020.
Paying full Disney World prices for things you don’t have to, hitting up the parks during their most crowded times, and… going to the WRONG bathroom??
