food IS a theme park
If you’re visiting Disney World soon, there are a few WARNINGS we have to give you.
Magic Kingdom
You’ll need to watch out for Spring Break crowds — click here for some tips for navigating crowds in the parks. You should also double-check your packing list — click here for a comprehensive list of what you’ll need. And finally, you’ll need to know what’s going to be CLOSED at the parks and hotels. So here’s a full list of all the closures happening next week! [Read more…]
Now listen, we know there are a LOT of expensive souvenirs in Disney World.
Disney World itself is getting more expensive
There are also souvenirs that are now worth lots because they’re vintage or rare. Sure, there are souvenirs for nearly every budget on a Disney trip, but this new souvenir could only fall into one, very tiny budget category — this is a souvenir for those with money to BURN.
Okay, so you’re going to Disney World next week, and in your excitement, you’re trying to make sure you’ve taken care of ALL the planning details.
Will you be here next week?
You’ve made your advance dining reservations. You’ve checked the weather in Florida and made your packing list (and if you haven’t done the latter, we can help with that). You’ve made your park pass reservations. You’ve checked park hours. Wait, have you done those last two things? If not, don’t worry — we’ll let you know what park hours are and what park pass availability looks like next week.
EPCOT’s Flower and Garden Festival is in full swing!
EPCOT’s Flower and Garden Festival
We tried EVERYTHING during the first day of the festival so we could tell you about all our favorites. Not only does this festival mean lots of new exciting eats and beautiful topiaries to admire, but it also means the return of some limited-edition Orange Bird merchandise!
Are you headed to Disney World this month?
Sunshine Seasons
If you are, you’re in for a LOT of new food. First, there’s the EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival, which just kicked off — you’ll find LOADS of new food at the food booths there. But it’s also Women’s History Month, and Disney World is offering some special snacks to celebrate. So we found one of the PRETTIEST of the new snacks and tried it.
We go to Disney World every day, so we know when something is a bit…different.
EPCOT
No two days are alike, and there’s almost always something new to see. On a recent trip to EPCOT, we noticed that something had changed at one of our favorite stores!
After the whirlwind of trying out all of the Flower and Garden eats, we’re back in EPCOT for round two!
Funnel Cake Stand
This time we’re back at the Funnel Cake Stand in the American Adventure pavilion for a new treat that may or may not have us questioning our taste buds.
February might’ve been a short month, but a LOT happened when it comes to Disney World food.
Chocolate Leige Waffle
First, we ate a TON of Valentine’s Day treats. We also said goodbye to the EPCOT Festival of the Arts. Between all the news about Reedy Creek and changes made to park pass reservations AND Genie+, we also had a lot of Disney World restaurant menu updates.
The EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival is underway, and we’ve already visited ALL the food booths, but there’s STILL so much more to see, do, and even eat!
2023 La Isla Fresca Booth
We’ve admired the topiaries, bought some merchandise, and checked out some entertainment, but more importantly, we’ve visited ALL the food booths. But the La Isla Fresca booth actually has TWO menus — one for lunch and dinner, and one for breakfast. We’ve already tried out the regular menu, but now we’re back for breakfast!
Sure, we may talk about EPCOT festival foods…a lot.
Spaceship Earth
But, those delicious eats and drinks are not the only reasons you should visit the Flower & Garden Festival. There are gorgeous topiaries, a ton of unique souvenirs, and some stellar entertainment! One of our favorite parts of the festival is the Beacons of Magic show that’s brilliantly displayed on Spaceship Earth — come check it out with us!
