You’ll Need a Royal BUDGET to Afford Disney’s NEW ‘Princess and the Frog’ Minnie Ears!

Hey Disney, we’ve got a question for ya! We find new Minnie ears in Disney World ALL the time, but where are all the princess-inspired ears? Sure, we know about the Tiara ears and the old Ariel-inspired ears, but it’s been a hot minute since we’ve seen a pair of ears inspired by a Disney princess! Imagine how cool it would be to wear a pair of Rapunzel Minnie ears, or what about a pair of Pocahontas ears? These are free ideas, Disney — use them!

It’s always a treat to talk to Princess Tiana!

Whoever’s in charge of Disney merchandise should come talk to DFB; we’re just saying. In the meantime, let’s talk about some new Minnie ears we can ACTUALLY buy!

PHOTOS: See the NEW Magic Kingdom Park Map in Disney World!

By Leave a Comment

We have a confession to make: even though we could probably navigate through the Disney parks with our eyes closed, we still find ourselves picking up a park map every once in a while — they’re practically a collector’s item! Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer freebies in Disney World, so we cling to our good old paper park maps like they’re precious gold. Who knows, maybe someday our commemorative 50th Anniversary park map will be worth some CASH!

Ever take a picture and think, “This is cover-worthy”?

Speaking of park maps, it’s time for a redesign! Recently, Minnie Mouse took over the cover of Disney’s Hollywood Studios’ NEW park map (and looks FABULOUS), but now let’s check out the new Magic Kingdom park maps!

Opening Date Revealed for Disney’s NEW Grand Floridian Resort Rooms!

By Leave a Comment

When you hear the word “luxury,” you probably don’t think about theme parks and family tourist destinations, but the truth is, you can experience some serious opulence and elegance in Disney World (as long as you’re willing to spend some serious cash). In fact, Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa was recently ranked as one of the BEST hotels in Orlando!

This is a beautiful resort!

As much as we love the Grand Floridian Resort, it was time for a little update. Recently, Disney started construction at one of Disney’s most popular Deluxe hotels, with plans to add 200 NEW DVC rooms to the resort. We’ve been keeping our eyes out for updates, and now we’ve got an important update to share about the new rooms coming to the Grand Floridian Resort.

NEWS: Disneyland Paris Relaxes COVID-19 Vaccine Requirement

By 1 Comment

To ensure we are equipping our readers with all the information they need, we will continue to report on all travel, safety, and COVID-related news that could impact a Disney Parks visit.

As we prepare for what’s expected to be a busy travel season this summer, Disney parks and resorts around the world are updating their health and safety guidelines. In Disney World, the face mask requirement was dropped in February, and Aulani’s COVID-related travel requirements were altered about one month later.

Over in Disneyland Paris, there are lots of changes coming to the park. We saw Minnie Mouse debut a fabulous new outfit, plus some new food and merchandise hit the park for the 30th Anniversary. Now, Disney shared a new update to its health and safety guidelines. Let’s take a look.

Prepare for Some STORMY Weather in Disney World Next Week!

By Leave a Comment

Lately, the weather in Florida has been WEIRD. The typical chilly weather we see up north made its way to Disney World this past winter, and the rainy May showers are starting in March! Between the unpredictable crowds and the weather, even us seasoned Disney professionals can’t figure out what’s up.

Look at that DARK sky!

If you’ve got a vacation to Disney World coming up during the third week of March (how is this month going so FAST?!), you might want to check the weather forecast in Orlando before you leave. It’s been pretty rainy in Orlando lately, but will the rain, rain, go away? Let’s find out as we take a look at the upcoming weather forecast in Disney World!

🚨ALERT🚨EPCOT’s Pizza Window is OPEN (And We Have ALL The Details)!

By 2 Comments

Who’d of thought that something as simple as PIZZA could be so divisive?! Disney World pizza is SUPER hit or miss. That puffy pizza served at places like PizzeRizzo is, well, not good in our opinion. But, the homemade pizza from Via Napoli is LEGENDARY — we’ve been raving about it for YEARS!

Via Napoli in the Italy Pavilion

Speaking of pizza, we made an exciting discovery inside the Italy pavilion in the EPCOT World Showcase; let’s take a look!

Here’s WHEN The New Mickey Mouse: Main Attraction Collection Is Coming To Disney World!

By 1 Comment

You know the old expression, “When one door closes, another one opens“? Well, in Disney World, it’s more like, “When one merchandise collection ends, another one begins.” Remember the old Minnie Mouse: The Main Attraction collection from a few years ago? For a while there, it was nearly impossible to get your hands on anything from the collection! You needed a merchandise pass just to have ACCESS to the items; it was a whole thing, believe us.

Which of the Disney mountains is your favorite?

Well, it looks like Disney is pulling from the archives, because the new Mickey Mouse: The Main Attraction is coming soon! What next, Disney? Donald Duck: The Main Attraction? (On second thought, that’s not a bad idea…). If you love Mickey Mouse and Disney attractions (who doesn’t?!), you’re going to want to hear this news!

Why Your Uber in Disney World Could Cost MORE Right Now

By 1 Comment

There’s one topic of conversation that’s been on a lot of people’s minds lately. No, we’re not talking about Wordle (but yes, we are obsessed), we’re talking about the news that practically every local TV news station and next-door neighbor can’t stop talking about: gas prices. For those of you planning a trip to Disney World, the rising cost of gas might seriously cut into your snack budget — especially if you’re driving all the way to Orlando!

Ya can’t walk to Disney World, sadly

But even those of you who aren’t bringing your own car to Disney World might feel the impact of higher gas prices. How you may ask? One word: Uber.

REVIEW: Don’t Skip This SERIOUSLY Underrated Spot in Magic Kingdom

By Leave a Comment

If you know us, you know that we are MAJOR foodies. But we don’t just eat all this stuff for the fun of it. We review every single restaurant in Disney World because we want to make sure that you, our readers, know what to order, what’s worth the money, and what you can skip!

No offense, Sonny!

We have seen and eaten it ALL (We’re talking full fish with the bones and all and cheese that’s literally on FIRE), so when we tell you that we recommend a restaurant in the Magic Kingdom, you know it has to be pretty good! Today, we’re taking a trip back in time and visiting Liberty Square to see if Sleepy Hollow Refreshments is worth a visit.

We Found LIVING Hidden Mickeys in Disney World!

By Leave a Comment

We go to Disney World so much that Mickey Mouse is practically burned into our eyes at this point. We manage to find hidden Mickeys all over the parks and resorts — seeking them out is kind of an addiction. From highly intentional Imagineering details to one-in-a-million occurrences, we’re always on the lookout for hidden Mickeys in Disney World.

You can find Mickey in the most unexpected places!

During our recent visit to the EPCOT World Showcase during the Flower & Garden Festival, we strolled through Vibrante & Verde: An Encanto Garden. What we saw totally BLEW our minds, and we need to share this discovery with you.
