Disney World’s gingerbread displays continue to be completed as we get closer to the holidays!
2023 Grand Floridian Gingerbread House
Six resort hotels and EPCOT each get their own festive gingerbread display! We’ve seen a few be completed already but now another one has been added to the done list. Let’s check out the gingerbread bakery over at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn!
The Disney Parks and resorts have been a whirl of excitement lately, and that includes Disneyland!Â
Great Maple
Paradise Pier hotel is slowly but surely being transformed into the Pixar Place Hotel. While this construction isn’t set to be completed until January 30th, 2024, visitors can already dine at the hotel’s new restaurant. Great Maple is a “Southern California-based modern American eatery” that serves upscale versions of traditional American comfort foods. The best part? You can eat here for three meals a day! We’re headed there now to check it all out, and even try a few of the dishes. Come along with us!
Disney World officially shut down the Galactic Starcruiser — the Star Wars hotel experience — in September 2023. However, there are still some remnants of this immersive experience!

We recently had the chance to visit the World of Frozen in Hong Kong Disneyland!

So where are our DFB readers who are obsessed with Disney World’s Haunted Mansion?
Haunted Mansion
We get it — we’ve been on Haunted Mansion NUMEROUS times, and each time, we notice something different about the ride. We’re also really excited — and curious — about the addition of Hatbox Ghost to the attraction, which should be coming soon. However, there’s already something NEW in the ride — and it is SUPER CREEPY but also really special.
Crocs are having a big year in 2023!
Disney Fab Five Skiing Crocs
Disney has come out with some, dare we say it, cute Crocs, and McDonald’s recently launched their own line of Crocs. It seems that Crocs are becoming a go-to shoe for nearly everyone. So we thought we would share some of our favorite Crocs that also happen to be on SALE on Amazon!
We may have just found one of the cutest treats in Disney World.
