food IS a theme park
The Otter Grotto is newly reopen on Discovery Island in Disney’s Animal Kingdom! We took you on a trip around the park this weekend and gave you a glimpse of their updated abode.

And today we’re taking a closer look, because after a lengthy refurbishment, we thought you might want to see the home for some of the park’s star residents.
Welcome back to Magic Kingdom for a little What’s New! Today we’ve got a peek at some new-to-us merchandise, character cones (the saga of Hei Hei continues!), and miscellaneous info (including an Easter Bunny update)!
So just two days ago we passed along the sad news that Hei Hei, the beloved character cone at Aloha Isle, had flown the coop (we’re not done with that pun yet, obviously). [Read more…]
Just a few days ago, something had gone missing from the menu at Magic Kingdom’s Aloha Isle: The Hei Hei Cone had flown the coop.

We’re always looking for new ways to enjoy Disney Parks treats, and when we come up with a new food hack — a combination of awesome treats — we just have to share. These five Disney Parks food hacks make dining on Disney sweet treats twice as fun!
Walt Disney World’s Train Station
Churros are a total must on any Disney trip (especially in Disneyland, where they’re served up warm and fresh!), and combining them with an ice cream sundae is kind of a genius idea. [Read more…]
Galactic Grill
is a convenient counter service restaurant in Disneyland’s Tomorrowland. This spot serves up filling eats from morning until closing time, making this a terrific place to fuel up no matter the hour.

We stopped in for breakfast and sampled two distinct options: French Toast Sticks and the American Breakfast Burrito. [Read more…]
We’re always on the lookout for What’s New in the parks of Walt Disney World, and today we’re journeying to Animal Kingdom! Come along as we check out fun new merchandise, a seasonal cupcake, and… otters? Yeah…otters!
Welcome to Animal Kingdom!
We start our tour with a look at the Times & Animal Guide! [Read more…]
Hollywood Studios is exciting these days — between prep for the 30th Anniversary celebration (See the events and food here!), Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge construction updates, Skyliner station progress, and new merchandise (Avengers, Rebecca Hook Jewelry, and New Vintage Shirts), we hardly know where to start!
Hello from Hollywood Studios!
What better place than at the entrance? Or maybe even before… because when you visit Hollywood Studios, currently you’ll see lots of construction and projects before you even enter the park.
Fans of The Lion King, this one is for you! Have you ever been strolling through Animal Kingdom on a mad hunt for Lion King merch? I have… and for the longest time, it was pretty hard to come by. But with July 19th (the release date of the live-action film) quickly approaching AND the 25th Anniversary of the animated film’s release, we have started to slowly notice more Lion King merchandise trickling into both Disneyland AND Disney World.
Lion King T-Shirt
We found the new Hakuna Matata Spirit Jersey when searching through Disneyland for all of the new items of the week, and now it’s available at Animal Kingdom, too! The front is branded with the classic film logo. [Read more…]
Rebecca Hook has created fun and sophisticated fine Disney Jewelry made especially for the Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort. We love that her jewelry has started popping up in Disney World because we feel that the pieces would make great gifts, perfect for Easter or Mother’s Day! And we’re also excited because Rebecca Hook has created some of the most lovely pieces of jewelry that we’ve ever seen in the parks.
Rebecca Hook Jewelry
Up until now, Rebecca Hook’s pieces were mostly seen on shopDisney.com. But now you can now see all of the items in person to make sure they’re perfect for you…if you’re visiting Disney World, that is!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
