From some fun new collectibles to a LOT of new merchandise, we have so much to cover! Let’s dive right in.
We spend a lot of time in the Disney parks… . I mean, a LOT of time so we can be the first to know about the latest updates and changes. And then, we can share those updates with YOU!
Tree of Life at Animal Kingdom
We recently spent some time in Animal Kingdom and are here to bring you all the latest news from Disney’s wildest park!
Over the past 2 years, we’ve seen a variety of requirements and regulations throughout Disney World due to the ongoing global pandemic. When the parks first reopened in July of 2020, temperature screenings were in effect, as well as physical distancing and mandatory face masks almost everywhere. That has now changed to masks being optional in most locations for vaccinated guests, with some exceptions (such as on enclosed transportation).

Another health and safety measure we’ve seen around Disney World is plexiglass barriers up in a lot of spots where guests would be close to each other or to a Cast Member. Some of that has been removed, but some has remained up in the parks, so let’s take a look at the current plexiglass situation in Disney World!
Disney World is known for change. Walt Disney’s wonderland has ALWAYS been about innovation and evolution, but never have we seen the kind of change Disney World went through in 2020 and 2021!
Main Street crowds
Through ALLLL the ups and downs over these past two years, there were a LOT of game-changing moments and epic changes like never before. This leaves us wondering what the future holds… .

On Friday, Disney announced that face masks would no longer be required in outdoor areas (with a few exceptions).
