food IS a theme park
Okay, so where are our popcorn bucket collectors at?
Animal Kingdom
We know y’all have been loving all the popcorn buckets we’ve seen recently, including the new 100th Anniversary Popcorn Bucket, that Figment Popcorn Bucket EVERYONE went nuts over, and the gorgeous Rainbow Mickey Balloon Popcorn Bucket. Well, get ready to hand over even MORE money to Disney World because a NEW popcorn bucket is on its way.
Did you know that this weekend marks a BIG milestone for Animal Kingdom?
Welcome to Animal Kingdom!
April 22nd is not only Earth Day, but it’s also Animal Kingdom’s birthday, and this year it’ll be turning 25! Disney has lots of fun things in store for the weekend, which is why you’ll want to book those park pass reservations right now so you don’t miss out!
Well, it’s another week in Disney World, which means a LOT of change. Now that we’re done eating our share of Easter treats, we’re gearing up for the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival (which doesn’t start for a few months, but WE ARE READY), and more. But we’re also keeping an eye on changes at Disney World restaurants.

Things are ALWAYS changing here; but this week, amongst the small changes, there were four REALLY big updates. Don’t worry — we’ll tell you about all 15 restaurants that had updates. But I’ll point out the biggies as well with this very sophisticated system LOL: BIG DEAL ALERT!
It’s an exciting time to be at Disney’s Animal Kingdom! In preparation for Earth Day, Disney has been surprising guests with some RARE character sightings around the park. Last year, we met Gypsy from A Bug’s Life and Kenai and Koda from Brother Bear!
Happy Earth Day from Animal Kingdom!
We can hardly wait any longer to see who makes an appearance this year, so let’s take a look!
Deciding when to visit Disney World is one of the most crucial — and tricky — parts of planning your vacation. If you’re not careful, you might end up visiting the parks in the middle of hurricane season or a big holiday break!
Springtime is the perfect time to visit the parks!
Of course, major holidays like Christmas are known to bring large amounts of people to Disney World but don’t forget about other little holidays like spring break or Labor Day weekend. Now that we’ve reached mid-April, the spring break crowds are finally gone, but how has the latest runDisney event impacted the parks? Let’s take a look!
Disney World is a BIG place with so much to do!
Main Street U.S.A.
So much to do, you couldn’t possibly do it ALL in one trip. Even the locals who visit regularly still haven’t done it ALL. Partly because Disney keeps changing, evolving, growing, and adding fun new tidbits, and partly because there are SECRET things to do in Disney World!
There are certainly some hilarious things that happen in Disney World.
Magic Kingdom
We’ve shared some of our funniest Disney stories with you in the past, as well as some true stories from Disney World guests that will either make you laugh, cry, or cringe. If you’re looking for a laugh today, we’ve got some news out of Animal Kingdom that will hopefully do the trick!
In early April, we were looking at some of the most EXPENSIVE Genie+ prices we’ve ever seen in Disney World. We’re talking a hefty $35 per person, per day price tag to use Disney’s Genie+ service to skip the lines. Ouch!
It is a NICE time to be in Disney World!
Luckily, it seems like we’re out of the woods for now — we noticed another price decrease at Disney World!
We’ve been dealing with a LOT of crowds in Disney World recently, thanks to the Spring Break travel season.
Tower of Terror in Hollywood Studios
That means we’ve seen some long wait times for rides, and we’ve seen park pass reservations go quickly, ESPECIALLY for Magic Kingdom, thanks to the opening of a new ride AND the return of a popular fireworks show. But we’re seeing the light at the end of the tunnel when looking at next week because it’s starting to already seem a lot different.
The Walt Disney Company is celebrating its 100th Anniversary, and a LOT has happened in the past 100 years. Even within the past five years, Disney World alone has changed in dozens of ways. If you traveled back in time to the year 2018, imagine how shocked people would be to hear that FastPasses (or “Lightning Lanes” as they’re called these days) now cost extra!
There’s always something new happening in Disney World!
Speaking of Lightning Lanes, let’s talk about the cost. Recently, the price of Disney Genie+ reached $35, but now that spring break is over, has the price decreased? Let’s take a look!
