food IS a theme park
Oh man, have we been craving some delicious sashimi and sushi from Tokyo Dining in EPCOT for quite some time!

But the wait is finally over (at least in a small way). The Japan Pavilion-Mitsukoshi USA just announced that Tokyo Dining will be reopening soon for a very limited time!
Greetings from EPCOT’s Norway, where things are gettin’ a little FESTIVE!
Kringla Bakeri og Kafe
As you can tell from the picture above, decorations are in place in this lovely pavilion as the park prepares for the 2020 Taste of EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays. But the decorations aren’t the only new thing in Norway, as a stop by Kringla Bakeri og Kafe revealed several more treats at this counter service snack spot! [Read more…]
It’s officially Christmastime in Disney World!
Holiday decorations at Magic Kingdom
While we wait patiently for the 2020 EPCOT International Festival of the Holidays to kick off on November 27th, we’ve been trying to go ahead and get into the holiday spirit. Well, we just got a BIG help from EPCOT — Christmas decorations have finally arrived! These decorations are a little late to the party as the other parks were decorated a few weeks ago.
Headed to EPCOT for some fun at the 2020 Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival?
International Gateway temperature checks
Well, if you’re planning on entering through the International Gateway entrance (a.k.a. the “back” entrance), you may experience some issues. It appears Disney is experiencing some technical difficulties today with this back entrance to the park that is preventing guests from entering.
Ready to eat in space? Well, Space 220, which is a new restaurant coming to EPCOT, may not actually take you physically off of planet Earth, but it’ll definitely make you feel like you’re floating among the stars.

Space 220 was announced some time ago and was originally supposed to open last winter, but has still not opened its doors. We’ve been keeping an eye on the construction progress we’ve been able to see from the outside, but today Disney gave us a small peek INSIDE the restaurant!
As you may have heard, EPCOT is undergoing a pretty HUGE transformation.
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind
Much of this transformation is happening over in Future World, including a BRAND NEW roller coaster — Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind! We’ve been keeping a close eye on the exterior progress on this attraction, but now we can take a peek INSIDE!
The EPCOT France Pavilion expansion has been calling our name every time we take the Skyliner to or from EPCOT.
France Pavilion
Though the expansion remains closed, it’s starting to look preeetty complete — and that includes the exterior of the upcoming Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure attraction. We’ve been waiting for news of the ride’s new opening date since it was delayed a few months ago, and now we have a better idea as to WHEN it will open!
Hello to all our DFB friends! We spent today at Disney World taking a ton of photos and videos just to share with you!
Cinderella Castle
We headed to Animal Kingdom, EPCOT, and Magic Kingdom, so fasten your seatbelt because here we go!
One of the best parts of the holidays in Disney World is the holiday ride overlays.
Jingle Cruise
This year we’ve spotted tons of jolly decor at Living With the Land in EPCOT and our beloved Jingle Cruise is back for the season! But today, we spotted an unexpected ride overlay that definitely caught us off guard!
EPCOT has been busy all weekend long with guests heading to the parks for Christmas entertainment (and probably to melt over the two new Karamell-Küche cookies and returning Frozen 2 Sipper).
Frozen 2 Sipper
Although the park is a HOT spot for construction right now, we’re narrowing our focus over to the Italy Pavilion! After construction walls popped up in the area, we’ve seen permits filed by the Pantina Restaurant Group for the “La Gelateria” Gelato Cart. Last year, we got a hint of what was to come with the announcement that the cart would have 12 different varieties of gelato and sorbet, including gluten-friendly and plant-based flavors.
