California is under a state of emergency as major fires rip through the Los Angeles area. Evacuation orders are in place in several areas. The fires have decimated homes, businesses, and schools, and officials believe the fires will continue to burn and cause more destruction on Thursday, January 9th.

According to the New York Times, Traci Park, a Los Angeles city councilwoman, said, “This is going to be devastating, a devastating loss, for all of Los Angeles.” Now, Disney CEO Bob Iger is speaking out about the fires as well.
Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal CityWalk in California will remain closed today, January 9th, 2025.
Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal CityWalk were also closed yesterday and will remain closed today due to extreme winds and fire conditions.
Okay, we know that price increases happen ALL the time in Disney World, especially on food. We go through menu updates every week, after all.
However, the biggest price increases usually happen in the fall when we see price increases across the board at almost every Disney World restaurant location. Well, we didn’t see price hikes then for Ghirardelli in Disney Springs, but we are seeing some pretty significant price increases now. Some of the most popular ice cream sundaes at Ghirardelli now cost $2+ more. Ouch.
Okay, serious question: can you ever really have TOO many Disney mugs?
Trick question! The answer is “no!” Disney mugs are something that we pretty much all collect, after all. These are probably among the most useful (and more affordable) of Disney souvenirs, whether we use them for drinking our morning coffee, settling in with that cup of hot chocolate on a cold wintry day, or convert those mugs into pen holders (guilty!). So we’re always on the lookout for more mugs. We guess that’s why a good thing Disney just dropped some brand new mugs online.

Don’t get us wrong — we’re BEYOND excited to see what Festival of the Arts in EPCOT brings to the table this year, but we have to admit there’s one problem we’re really hoping to see fixed.
Don’t worry, it has nothing to do with the incredible entertainment or art offerings around the park in honor of the festival, but it does have something to do with the food. It’s not the food’s taste or presentation, necessarily. We’re talking about the menu boards.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
