food IS a theme park
You know we’re always going to tell you when we find something cool online. It’s what friends do!
Target
That’s why we’re constantly telling you about the latest and greatest deals and discounts on Disney merchandise and other finds that you may need. Now we just spotted one of the most popular toys EVER is back online ahead of the holiday season. Consider this an official PSA!
Hollywood Studios isn’t known for having the best food.
Galaxy’s Edge
In fact, some people would say it has the worst food out of all the Disney World parks, and we see why! It doesn’t have a lot of options that really blow you away, and some of the quick service options have a bit of a reputation of being unreliable. However, there ARE hidden gems in this park, and one of them is located right in Galaxy’s Edge, but we bet a lot of you walk right by it!
It’s a great time to be a Moana fan!

With the live-action version of the movie in production and Moana 2 just months away from premiering in theatres, we are HYPED. And it seems like Disney is well aware of our anticipation because they just released a sneak peek of a new song featured in the sequel!
Is it about time to do some more Disney shopping?
Merchandise Cast Member!
Trick question! It’s ALWAYS time to do more Disney shopping. That’s because you can always find the BEST Disney souvenirs and essentials online, and sometimes, those things are even on sale. Well, guess what? We’ve perused Amazon for some Disney souvenirs that are on sale right now (we’re talking up to 47% OFF!) that you’ll want to grab quickly before the sale ends.
Y’all…there is SO much construction going on in Disneyland right now.
Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at Disneyland
Yes, it’s awesome that we’re getting so many new things, including an Avatar-themed land and a new Coco ride. Downtown Disney is FULL of construction walls, but SO MANY NEW RESTAURANTS are coming to the area. Haunted Mansion is getting a new queue and gift shop! We’re also excited about Critter Country becoming Bayou Country and bringing a re-themed Hungry Bear Barbecue Jamboree with it. We’re MOSTLY excited about Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, though, which is making BIG progress: we spotted ride testing recently!

If you’re heading to Disney World soon, we’ve gotta have a chat!
Walking down Main Street
If you’re planning a trip to Disney World, you’re probably dreaming of all the magical moments you’ll have, Mickey-shaped treats, and riding the classics like Space Mountain. And while Disney World is absolutely the place where dreams come true, there are some brutal truths about the “Most Magical Place on Earth” that you’re probably not ready to hear, but trust us, you’ll be better for it!
There are so many new and exciting projects coming to Disney World!
Magic Kingdom
At D23 this past August, we got a look into all the new attractions that will be making their way to Disney World. Magic Kingdom will see the addition of a Disney Villains land beyond Big Thunder Mountain. Tom Sawyer Island and the Rivers of America will close to make way for two brand-new Cars attractions. Animal Kingdom will see a big re-vamp as It’s Tough to be a Bug! will close to make way for a brand new show called Zootopia: Better Zoogether. DinoLand U.S.A. will also close and be re-themed to Pueblo Esperanza, a Tropical Americas-themed land that will feature three brand new rides. That does not even scratch the surface as other projects are coming to EPCOT, such as Test Track 3.0 and Hollywood Studios, like the new Monsters, Inc. land. While we are pumped about all these new additions to Disney World, we are wondering why nothing has been said about these five abandoned attractions.
Hurricanes can form unexpectedly and suddenly and with that, many theme parks try to come up with the best solution to keep guests and their staff safe.
Magic Kingdom during a hurricane
Hurricane Helene touched down in Florida last night and Disney World has already begun their recovery process, opening up their doors and returning to their regularly scheduled hours. As the incredible cast members came together to restore the grounds, we checked out the park to see what Disney World looks like after a hurricane.
A lot of changes are coming to Southwest Airlines.
Southwest Plane
The good news is that one of those changes is NOT charging for checked bags: the airline recently confirmed free checked bags are here to stay. However, big changes are coming to how you board a Southwest flight, including assigned seating which will become available in 2025, which has caused a little controversy with its customers. New premium seating options are also on the way, as are changes at airports. Southwest also recently announced it will be cutting routes from the nation’s largest airport.
