Hello from Disney Springs!
We hit up THE shopping destination for Black Friday (or at least it is, in our opinion) to see what’s new. So here are some updates!
Disney Springs Food Updates
Sunshine Churros
We’re never going to say “no” to a churro, and when there’s a new holiday flavor available at Sunshine Churros? We’re going to say “yes” multiple times! Did someone say Peppermint Churro? YES, YES, YES!!!
It was messy but SO delicious, and we highly recommend this for you other peppermint fans out there! You can get one yourself for $6.95 with tax.

Disney Springs Merchandise Updates
World of Disney
World of Disney was BUSY, but what else did we expect on Black Friday? We still managed to spot a new Alex and Ani Minnie Mouse Ear Headband Bangle for $44.99, though! We’ve seen this one online, too!
The bangle has a pair of classic Minnie ears on it as a charm! It is — shall we say — quite CHARM-ing.

We also found the Christmas Alex and Ani Bangle we previously discovered at The Emporium at Magic Kingdom. This bangle has charms of a candy cane, a Minnie-shaped Christmas cookie, and a gingerbread man with Mickey ears!
You can snag this bangle for $49.99.

Disney Springs Miscellaneous Updates
Carousel
The Carousel over by Goofy’s Candy Company is running! This is the first time we’ve seen it in operation since Disney Springs reopened!
It’s so pretty at night with all of the lights!

Black Friday Crowds
We certainly expected crowds on Black Friday, but by evening, we felt as if this were a normal summer crowd! The line for World of Disney was diverted to go parallel to the Lemon Parking Lot and went behind Basin, Arribas Bros., and Co-Op Marketplace before turning back around to go into the World of Disney entrance on the Lemon parking lot side.
The wait time said 20 minutes, but we were inside the store in about 10 minutes. Although it looked long, it wasn’t TOO bad.

That’s it for us this time at Disney Springs. We had fun walking around this shopping and dining district on one of the busiest shopping days of the year! We’ll be back soon to look for more updates, so stay tuned.
