food IS a theme park
It has been a weekend for the books at D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event!
D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event
One of the most anticipated events of the weekend was the Horizons: Disney Experiences Panel. This panel was focused on the parks, resorts, cruises, and more. In this panel, Disney usually shares a lot about their upcoming plans, and Disney did not hold back on the announcements this year.
Disney is moving quickly.

This past weekend, Disney hosted the D23: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event. During the Horizons showcase, Disney dropped a ton of news relating to their theme parks. Two of the biggest announcements came in the form of Cars and Villains lands coming to the Magic Kingdom. Now just days later, Disney is already putting the wheels in motion.
We just got a BUNCH of news out of Disneyland Resort. Not only is Disneyland Resort offering a ticket deal, but they confirmed more details about the return of Fantasmic! AND confirmed the start date of TWO events. 
There is A LOT to unpack in all of these announcements. Let’s dive into the announcements about two returning Disneyland events!
Loungefly Backpacks have become one of the hottest Disney fashion items around in recent years.

They have just enough room to carry essentials, while at the same time, being light and small enough to be comfortably worn. Plus, they just look darn cool. And Amazon has a bunch of new ones available for pre-order NOW.
We love a good Easter Egg… and no, we’re not talking about the chocolate kind the festive bunny leaves around every Spring (though we love those, too).

We’re talking about Disney Easter Eggs — whether they’re in the parks or in the films, it’s so fun to see how creative the Disney Imagineers can be!
Are there any other adults out there that prefer a Happy Meal to any other McDonald’s options? We know it’s not just us!
McDonald’s Happy Meal
One of the main reasons that kids love Happy Meals is — of course — because they come with a toy. Sometimes McDonald’s will have Disney-themed toys, like they did for Encanto‘s premiere or the start of Disney World’s 50th Anniversary. Now, there’s a new set of Disney Happy Meal toys at McDonald’s, and they’re themed to a popular Disney+ series! [Read more…]

Not all Disney World treats are created equally.
Disney World Dessert Case
We’ve had some truly incredible and creative snacks in the parks, and we’ve also had snacks that just fell flat. Between holiday parties, special events, and other happenings in Disney World, we often see some over-the-top foods designed to be just as appealing to the eye as they are to the stomach. But sometimes you just want a simple and classic treat — so, come with us to try a NEW ice cream sundae in Disney World!
Disneyland has better churros than Disney World. There, we said it!
We said what had to be said!
Obviously, this is a matter of opinion, but it does seem like Disneyland gets sooo many different kinds of churros compared to Disney World. In the past, we’ve seen flavors like berries and cream, blueberry, hot cinnamon, lemon, and cherry chocolate, just to name a few! And now, there’s another new churro and town, so you know we had to check it out!
Here at DFB, we talk a lot about flying to Disney World — new flight options, airport changes, and anything else you need to know if you’re traveling through MCO. But what about those guests who choose to drive instead?
Magic Kingdom
There’s a whole slew of information that you’ll need if you’re bringing a car to Disney World, including parking fees, directions to the parks, and much more. But one BIG update you need to know is all about those pesky gas prices!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
