food IS a theme park
It’s time to grab your reusable totes and have your quarter at the ready because we have word that some new (and too cute!) Disney merch will be available near you soon!

It may surprise some of you to learn that ALDI sells Disney merch, but trust us when we say that their merch game is nothing to scoff at. And the latest look at what they have planned has us ready to shop for our future trip to the parks.
You know Disney World is probably our favorite place on Earth. It is the Most Magical, after all.
Cinderella Castle
When we step into the parks, we feel like we’re home. Now, it’s no accident that Disney has created the parks so perfectly that they make us feel that way. As much as we want to truly believe it’s all in the magic (which we’re convinced is real), it is also very much in the marketing. Disney doesn’t do anything on accident. The Imagineers, officials, and even Cast Members design the parks to be exactly what we want and need them to be so we feel at home (and spend all our money). But have you ever considered that one of our LEAST favorite parts of the parks is actually there completely on purpose?
It’s been a LONG day of travel — you might’ve gotten up early for your flight, spent hours on a plane, and then traveled even longer to finally arrive at your Disney World hotel. You’re EXHAUSTED. But wait — there are a few things you NEED to do before you fall into bed to rest up for your big day in the parks tomorrow!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge Hotel Room
I’ve polled the travel experts here on the DFB team and done extra research online to find six things that EVERY vacation aficionado does as soon as they step into their hotel room.
Disney’s Animal Kingdom is a beautiful park with so many hidden gems.
Pandora in Animal Kingdom
Many of our favorite snacks and restaurants are located in Animal Kingdom, there are stunning animal trails and experiences, and it’s a park truly like no other. If you’re planning a trip here soon, here are some dates you may want to avoid if you’re trying to escape those crowds!
It’s another one of those weeks when we’re almost overwhelmed by all of the new updates we got at Disney World this week. Yes, it’s true.
We’re here to chat about all things NEW!
I’m back again with another game of WHAT’S NEW AT DISNEY WORLD and I have a feeling that a lot of you will really love this one. We got news on a new Magic Kingdom Attraction, an EPCOT festival, and even a potential ride update. Are y’all ready? Okay, let’s go!
After some MASSIVE jumps in wait times at Walt Disney World last week, things have stabilized a bit.
Frozen Ever After
Wait times at Walt Disney World were steady over the resort this week, though we did still see some incremental increases.
Ah, Gideon’s Bakehouse, how we love thee and your cookies and cakes.
Gideon’s Bakehouse
Gideon’s Bakehouse is a one-of-a-kind bakery in Disney Springs, and we’re big fans. So when they tell us that they have created all-new specialty treats, we are ALL over it! That is exactly what is happening this weekend, so let’s find out what’s baking!
Each week we bring you the latest closures and refurbishments going on around Disney World.
EPCOT
Many of these attractions, restaurants, and even entire parks have been closed for an extended period of time with no reopening date in sight. However, while one restaurant has been closed for its intended purpose for several years now, it occasionally reopens as a completely different venue. Now, on May 1st, we’ll once again see it reopen but NOT as a restaurant.
Universal is working hard on its newest park, Epic Universe, opening in 2025, and we love following along with all the construction updates!

Epic Universe will feature five new lands, several new rides, shops, restaurants, and more! The park is coming along very nicely, but there are also 3 new hotels being built near the park. One of these new hotels is even being built INSIDE the park. We’ve got some updates on that hotel you may want to see!
