food IS a theme park
We’re only 6 months away from spooky season!
Halloween in Magic Kingdom
Sooner if you count the fact that Disney starts celebrating Halloween pretty early each year, and we couldn’t be more excited. We’re especially excited for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and all the fun entertainment, snacks, and joy it brings to guests. If you’re planning on attending this year, here are the best Disney World hotels we recommend staying at to be close to the park.
It’s Spring Break in Disney World and we’re dealing with a lot of crowds right now.
Pizzafari
That hasn’t stopped us from trying out some new treats this week, though, like a Carrot Tart, a Tower of Terror-themed cookie, Easter Egg macarons, and more. However, Disney World restaurants have been switching up their menus this week, too, so we’ve also been tracking those. Let’s see what changed!
At this point, it’s hardly a secret that Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is getting some new Disney Vacation Club villas.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
These new DVC villas will be housed in a brand NEW building at the Polynesian Village Resort, and we’ve been carefully watching the construction to get an idea of what the final project will look like. However, there has been some concern that the Villas don’t look the way people expect…but we want you to hear us out.
HUGE changes are happening at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort.
The Polynesian Village Resort
Disney is in the process of creating a WHOLE new set of Disney Vacation Club (DVC) villas, and we’ve been following the construction of the project since it began. The new Island Tower (that’s the name of the expansion) is set to open later this year, in December 2024. Let’s dive into what will be included with this huge expansion.
A LOT is going on in Disney World right now.
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
We’ve watched Splash Mountain slowly transform into Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, which will open THIS SUMMER. We’ve been checking out the progress of The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers and Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs at Disney’s Boardwalk Inn, too. Well, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is also busy with construction in the form of brand-new Disney Vacation Club (DVC) villas, and we’ve got a HUGE update to share with you.
Every year, there are new experiences that become available in Disney World.
Magic Kingdom
Last year alone, TRON Lightcycle /Run opened, Disney celebrated their 100th Anniversary for the whole year, Splash Mountain permanently closed to make way for a new attraction, and those are just to name a few. And while there are tons of exciting things coming for 2024, we’re wondering if it will be enough.
When you’re deciding where to stay for your Disney World vacation, you may decide to splurge on a moderate or deluxe hotel room.
Disney’s Contemporary Resort
Some of these rooms are expensive, but some of them are just RIDICULOUSLY expensive. It may make you wonder, why the heck would anyone pay that much for a hotel room? But, surprisingly there are some reasons why those wildly expensive rooms do get booked time and time again.
Well, it’s been A WEEK here in Disney World. WHEW!
Neapolitan Dessert Trio at the EPCOT Festival of the Arts
So a LOT happened, a lot of things changed (goodbye, park pass reservations, welcome back, Disney Dining Plan and all-day park hopping). As far as food goes, the EPCOT Festival of the Arts opened and we ate just about EVERYTHING. But we still had to keep an eye on Disney World restaurant menus, too, so let’s see how they have changed this week.
UPDATED December 17, 2024

Some merchandise sold at Disney Parks are highly valued as collector’s items.
Signs in the lobby
We STILL remember the chaos surrounding the Figment Popcorn Bucket in 2022, after all. Popcorn buckets, in general, tend to be highly popular with collectors. Of course, we can’t forget about pins, either. But one of the most coveted collectibles could be the Trader Sam’s Tiki Mugs. We’re going to take a look at the Tiki Mugs Disney released in 2023 and show off some of the BEST!
