food IS a theme park
Be sure to check out our list of restaurants in the Magic Kingdom.
What we love about Disney World is the attention to detail.
Main Street, U.S.A.
We see it on the rides, in the little details just walking through the parks, with the characters, and more. Even the Cast Member costumes are themed to the area or ride Cast Members are working (like, is any outfit more iconic than the Haunted Mansion Cast Member costumes?). Well, now, Cast Members who work in Magic Kingdom are getting a new look!
Things happen in Disney World, so it’s always best to be prepared for those unexpected situations.
Cinderella Castle
Sometimes rides close (often due to weather). Sometimes, there are transportation issues that could affect your day. There are occasional glitches with technology, including with the My Disney Experience app. Even entertainment can have issues arise, resulting in cancellations or delays. Well, one of our favorite Disney World parades was delayed recently — and we’re going to tell you what happened.
Did you know that Disney World is getting a NEW attraction?
Dumbo
No, we’re not talking about Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, although we love keeping track of the ride’s construction. We’re actually talking about a new attraction coming to Magic Kingdom that will have you sniffing your way around Storybook Circus. Well, we’ve got a new update on that attraction!
Could Tiana’s Bayou Adventure open SOON in Disney World?

As you know, what you eat while at Disney World is going to be a HUGE part of the experience, and we get that navigating all the options when it comes to restaurants can be overwhelming. Do you get that churro and Mickey pretzel to eat on the go and hit up Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, or skip some rides for a character meal at Crystal Palace? We’re here to help you ditch the stress and find some spots that will truly make your taste buds happy, without breaking the bank.
Disney World parkgoers, we may have bad news for you if you weren’t already prepared.
Spring Break crowds
Spring break has really started to impact crowd levels at Disney World, and now we’re starting to see crowds all over Florida. If you haven’t already planned which Disney World parks you’re going to visit this March/April, you could find yourself out of luck if you don’t act FAST. [Read more…]
Who is ready to plan a trip to Walt Disney World? 🙋🏼♀️
The BEST view!
We feel like there is NEVER a bad time to plan a trip to Disney World. We spend so much time thinking about the best activities, places to stay, and things to eat that we are ALWAYS prepared for some trip planning. Luckily, Disney just announced a ticket deal that is just too good to pass up — and we NEED to talk about it.

Disney World is BUSY today, y’all!
Cinderella Castle
The wild part is — it’s not even noon yet! Sometimes early in the day is the easiest time to see how busy the day will be at Disney World, and today is no exception! We know we’ve seen some pretty hectic crowds recently, and wait times were still pretty high last week. Let’s take a look at just how busy it is today! [Read more…]
Hi. Former Disney World Cast Member here. The life of a Disney Cast Member is pretty unique — your day consists of waving bubble wands around, talking to a mouse, and pressing buttons to make elephants spin around in the sky. But Cast Members clock in and clock out just like the rest of the world, which means they covet that precious lunch break just like us.
We told you this is a MAGICAL place!
So, remember how we said the job has some unique aspects? Well, when you’re a Magic Kingdom Cast Member, guess what you can get for lunch? Magic Kingdom food! But you’ve probably never seen a Haunted Mansion Cast Member in line at Sleepy Hollow Refreshments, right?
The one thing that never changes in Disney World is how often everything DOES change.
Spaceship Earth
The beginning of the year saw some HUGE changes, including changes to park hopping (all-day park hopping is BACK), the return of the Disney Dining Plan, and more. So that means your strategy in Disney World needs to change, too, and some of the advice we might have given a year or two ago is just probably not good anymore. So we’re going to share the outdated hacks you need to ignore when it comes to visiting Disney World.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
