food IS a theme park
It’s official! Disney World’s 50th anniversary celebration has kicked off!
Animal Kingdom Lodge
Not only have we been in all four theme parks today, but we’ve visited the resorts to see how they are getting in on the celebrations! A good amount of Disney World’s long list of 50th anniversary treats are at the resorts, so let’s check out one of the sweet treats at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge!
Disney World sure does know how to throw a birthday party!
Figment!
And, while we typically settle for a small dessert table at our birthday parties, Disney World has outdone themselves and brought OVER 150 new eats and drinks to the parks and resorts for the 50th Anniversary! So far we’ve tried a funnel cake hot dog, a bathtub of ice cream (yes, really), and more, but, it wouldn’t be a real party without some cake, right? Well, that’s why we’re headed over to EPCOT to have our cake and eat it too!
We’re at Disney World checking out a bunch of the food for the 50th anniversary!
Flame Tree BBQ!
While there are SO many things to look forward to today like new shows, entertainment, fireworks, decor, and more, we’re excited about the food (shocking, we know)! There are over 150 new treats to celebrate 50 years of Disney World and 3 of them are located at one of our favorite quick service spots!
Hello from the BoardWalk at Disney World!

Happy 50th from Dale!
There is so much going on right now for the celebration, like new food, a new ride, a new character cavalcade, and new merch. While we’ve been focusing a lot on what’s happening inside the theme parks, we’re also checking out the festivities at the Disney hotels. And, we found one of our FAVORITE things at an opening-day resort!
