I Wore These VIRAL Shoes All Day, Every Day in Disney World – Here’s Why It Was a Total Lifesaver

Hi, hello. This is not your regularly scheduled Disney parks fashion recommendation. This is coming from a former Disney World Cast Member who worked six days a week outside in EPCOT in the dead of summer. This is coming from a person who was on their feet — hard concrete, more specifically — for the entire day. As you can imagine, standing outside under the hot Florida sun can take a toll on your body. You need good shoes.

EPCOT

Even if you’re not planning to work as a Disney World Cast Member, you might still want to pack a pair of comfortable shoes for your next trip to Disney World. Trust us — the right pair of shoes can make a WORLD of difference.

Peter Pan’s Never Land in Fantasy Springs

In Hong Kong Disney Resort, the World of Frozen just opened an entirely new land. Likewise, a new Zootopia-land just opened recently at Shanghai Disney Resort.

By Brian Delpozo 1 Comment

A week after things stayed stable at Walt Disney World, wait times across the resort trended downward over the past 7 days.

See that little orange gal? That’s Anxiety. She’s joining Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust in Disney’s upcoming Inside Out 2 movie this summer. And if Riley’s Anxiety is anything like the kind in our heads, we have a feeling this story is going to be interesting, to say the least.

Allow us to recount a story for you. The scene is Disney World — Magic Kingdom, more specifically. There’s a family headed to Peter Pan’s Flight. But along the way, a little one gets separated from their parents. What happens next? You can probably guess.

Cast Members

Many celebrities, Imagineers, animators, and, of course, Walt himself have touched our hearts over the 100 years of the Walt Disney Company. However, there is one duo who may have impacted many Disney fans more than we even realize. Music is the heart of a movie. It can make you laugh, cry, or even feel scared.
