We’ve been covering everything from Galaxy’s Edge menu options to merchandise and ride facts, and we thought we’d knew just what to expect on the planet of Batuu. But then we heard about this…
All-Star Movies seems to be rolling out lots of delicious snack options lately. I mean we literally just reviewed a SUPER yummy Peaches and Cream cupcake that happens to be the perfect summer treat.
Key Lime Cheesecake
And now, we’ve tried the NEW Key Lime Cheesecake treat as well! We’ve seen cheesecakes like this before, but this one seems to be a little different.
When Walt Disney World first announced a forthcoming option for guests and Annual Passholders to upgrade their MagicBands, we heard from a ton of DFB readers and followers who couldn’t wait to partake in this fun, personalized option.
But since the bands became available to order on Monday (see the announcement here!), we’ve heard a lot more about glitches than successes.

If you’re one of the many who attempted to order a Disney icon, character, or snack MagicBand and met with limited (if any!) success, you’re not alone! [Read more…]
If you’ve been following the Great Straw Saga at the Disney Parks, you know all about how Disney has transitioned away from single-use plastic straws and toward paper straws. (Catch up here, if single use plastic straw sagas haven’t been your thing!) But you might’ve been wondering — as we have — how long it would be before Disney got on board the reusable straw wagon.
Paper Straws at Counter Service Locations at Walt Disney World
Wonder no more: for reusable plastic straws have been spotted for purchase in the Parks of Walt Disney World! [Read more…]
Walt Disney World is experiencing a lot of growth, and we’re not just talking about the opening of new attractions like Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway!
Indeed, Disney World is growing in many different ways, and by 2021 — just one year from now — our vacations to the World might look very different.
Epcot in 2021?
Let’s take a look at the changes coming to Disney World and what they might mean for you and your visit!
Happy weekend! Here’s all the Disney food news from this week in a nice little package for ya!
Don’t Forget… The 2019 Epcot Flower and Garden Festival is in full bloom, and we have the menus! And be sure to check out our BEST of the Fest!

We have a lot to share with you this week, so let’s jump right in…
Hooray for Hollywood — and for today’s What’s New from Disney’s Hollywood Studios! We’ve got a small update from the park — but we’re starting with some big news!
Hello from Hollywood Studios
The construction that’s been filling the Park’s entrance area is complete, and a brand new tram drop off and loading zone has been unveiled. [Read more…]
In addition to the Tomorrowland Speedway reopening for guests today, we got a GREAT view of the progress on the upcoming TRON coaster — things are going vertical!
TRON Coaster Construction
We first spotted some of the vertical beams (some of which will be 80 ft tall!) going up at the beginning of May. You can check out some more photos of the construction and everything else that’s new in the Magic Kingdom here!
Touring Disneyland today (and checking out the beautiful new Sleeping Beauty Castle), we were lucky enough to come across one of the newest pairs of Minnie Ears!
New Rainbow Ears
These new Rainbow Ears — which have also been called “Pride Ears” — are scheduled to be released on May 20th. But on our visit we found them out early at the Mad Hatter shop and were able to purchase them. From what we’ve heard, the ears have been pulled from the floor since.
Gran Destino Tower at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort

Gran Destino Tower
The new costumes “tie together the resort’s classic Spanish influences and imaginative Disney touches”. [Read more…]
