food IS a theme park
The Walt Disney Company has had its fair share of headaches over the last year.

From multiple lawsuits and less-than-stellar box office results to a second proxy battle for seats on Disney’s Board of Directors (waged yet again by Nelson Peltz), the Company has had to work hard to maintain investor support. And, that’s precisely why April 3rd is such a huge day for Disney.
Let us set the scene. You have exactly five minutes before your Lightning Lane for TRON Lightcycle / Run expires, and you’re still on Main Street, U.S.A. in Magic Kingdom. Uh-oh! Time to hustle.Â
Welcome to the Magic Kingdom!
Of course, you can’t actually RUN through the park, so instead, you pick up the pace into fast-walk-foot-shuffle mode, a.k.a. “I need to get to TRON, but there’s a sea of people in my way, and it’s not socially acceptable to run through Magic Kingdom.” You know the move — we’ve all been there. Luckily, there is one handy dandy shortcut that never fails to SAVE the day.Â
The Walt Disney Company is getting ready for its 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, and they’re pleading with stakeholders to support their nominations for the Board of Directors.

Disney made it clear that they do not endorse the nominations of Nelson Peltz and former Disney CFO Jay Rasulo in their announcement, and now, a letter has been sent to shareholders urging them to vote against Peltz and Rasulo.
Sometimes, you’re just looking for a solid food option at Disney World without a lot of fuss, and we can relate.
Disney’s Yacht Club Resort
We’ve checked out the updated menus at several of the Disney World hotel lounges and even had decent meals at hotel pool bars and none of them had quite the options that this restaurant does. Disney’s Yacht Club Resort is known for some fancy dining options, but how do their quick-service food options measure up in comparison. Let’s find out! [Read more…]
It’s almost time!
Welcome to the Pixar Place Hotel!

Starting tomorrow, we’ll be able to walk through the doors of this beautiful hotel and experience all of the latest updates, artwork, and more. [Read more…]
Close your eyes for a moment. Picture a cabin in the woods. What does it look like? Are you picturing a simple, cozy house made of pine? Are you imagining a wood fireplace and a thermos full of hot tea? When we hear “cabin,” our mind goes to a log house in the woods. It’s nature!
Is this what you were imagining?
Perhaps the Cabins at Fort Wilderness is Disney’s answer to an idyllic life in the woods. There’s something about a cozy log cabin that screams “comfort,” right? These cabins have been pretty popular among Disney fans. They give you plenty of space, come with a full kitchen, and make you forget you’re living in the middle of a major Florida city. That’s magic! But recently, Disney did something that SHOCKED a lot of people. Remember those classic cabins we conjured up in our minds? They’re about to change.
It’s almost time for the BIGGEST game of the year, the Super Bowl, and you’ve lined up your Disney World vacation in the same week… whoops!

We like to tell you about our favorite Disney World hotels to stay in, things to do while in Disney, and places to eat, but where do you go when you need a place to hop back into reality for a few hours to keep from missing the most important game of the season. Well, we’re glad you asked! [Read more…]
Every Disney World hotel has its own pros and cons — even the Deluxe Resorts. Sure, Disney’s Grand Floridan Resort is stunning, but it’s also preeeeety expensive. And yes, Disney’s BoardWalk Hotel is conveniently steps away from the EPCOT park entrance, but right now, it’s also under construction.Â

If you’re planning a trip to Disney World, booking the right hotel can play a BIG part in your vacation. Does your hotel have the amenities you need to easily get to and from the parks? Is your hotel quiet enough to get a peaceful sleep? Does the cost fit in your budget? Here’s something else to consider: do you mind staying at a hotel that’s under refurbishment?Â
Choosing where you’re staying for your next Disney World hotel can get a little overwhelming given there are so many hotels to choose between. One of the most budget-conscious options is Disney’s Art of Animation Resort.

You may be looking for a solid hotel choice that’s not experiencing ongoing construction, can accommodate more people in a room, and is frequently compatible with Disney hotel discounts offered at various points through the year, but we’ve got a few things we want to warn you about when choosing to stay here.

We’re simple people. We like chocolate Mickey bars, photos of puppies, and trips to the Disney parks. Know what else we like? Parades! You never know who you might see in a parade, plus we love a good parade float or antique car. Anyone else?

Recently, Los Angeles, California hosted its annual Kingdom Day Parade, which celebrates the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. The parade is known as the “World’s Largest & Longest Running Life Celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King,” and even featured appearances from some SPECIAL Disney characters!Â
