food IS a theme park
Disney’s nightly fireworks are some of the most beautiful displays you’ll ever see in your life, especially when the colors and the shapes match up to the songs they’re going off to.
Happily Ever After
But there are some “rules” that guests think they HAVE to follow when it comes to these nightly spectaculars, and we’re here to tell you to BREAK THEM! You actually might get a better experience if you do.
There are so many changes going on in the theme park world these days!
Islands of Adventure
Over at Universal, new coasters are underway, and classic shows are getting some major updates. An entire land even closed, and we’re still waiting on what new items could be coming! Now, it seems like a long-time restaurant is going extinct very soon.
When you’re thinking about essentials for your Disney World trip, you may be thinking about getting a few of them when you’re already in Disney World, because what if you don’t need it, you brought it from home, and then took up that space in your bag?
Let’s take a look at what’s in the first bag!
Here’s the thing, though: you may be surprised to see just how much MORE some of those items will cost you in Disney World. Whereas, if you buy them online ahead of time, you’ll spend less money, and if you don’t end up using them, well, Amazon has a pretty solid return policy (especially if you haven’t opened the item).
LEVEL99 recently opened in Disney Springs, and we’ve been having a blast playing all the games and collecting points. Disney Springs needed a space like this, so we’re glad it’s here, and the internet seems to be raving about the experience.
LEVEL99
Something super cool about LEVEL99 is that it’s decked out in amazing artwork. Seriously, it feels like every wall is filled with bright colors, and we couldn’t help but stop and admire them while waiting for our next game. Just wait till you see the art!
Here at Disney Food Blog, we love Moana. And we’re not the only ones – Disney’s new live-action Moana brought in millions of viewers on its opening weekend.

Are you ready? Halloween season will be here before you know it, and we’ll soon all be sipping on pumpkin spice lattes, staring at Halloween decorations in the parks, and going to Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and Oogie Boogie Bash. IT’S ALMOST TIME, PEOPLE.

Ahead of spooky season, though, Disney is about to drop some sweet and spooky Halloween merchandise at The Disney Store, and it drops…SOON, as in on July 27th. Well, we’ve got a first look at these new Halloween souvenirs.
There are lots of ways to explore Disney World.
All-Star Sports
You can check out the theme parks, you can check out the hotels, and you can even dine and shop at Disney Springs. During one of our recent reporting walks around the resort, we heard some commentary that made our ears perk up. We asked what YOU guys thought about people sleeping in their cars in Disney World. Here are your replies.
Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party has everything we want from a Disney World evening. Rare characters, ridiculously fun costumes, enough candy to turn your park bag into a kettlebell! And don’t forget the Headless Horseman casually galloping through Magic Kingdom!
Mickey and Minnie!
It also has something considerably less festive: Central Florida weather. That means your party outfit needs to be cute without becoming a portable sauna. Your bag needs to hold the essentials without dragging down one shoulder. And your phone absolutely cannot die before the parade, because that is how villains are made.
The TSA might be one of the most stressful parts of traveling. It seems that there are always new rules being added or changed, and it can be hard to keep up with it all.
MCO TSA Precheck
A new TSA has arrived, and it might be impacting what you can carry on when you travel.
Since it first opened back in 2011, the LEGOLAND Florida resort has grown into a massive resort that’s home to the 150-acre LEGOLAND theme park, a LEGOLAND water park, the Peppa Pig Theme Park Florida, the SEA LIFE Florida Aquarium, and three LEGO-themed hotels: the LEGOLAND Hotel Florida, The LEGOLAND Pirate Island Hotel, and our focus today: the LEGOLAND Beach Retreat Bungalows.
LEGOLAND Beach Retreat
The LEGOLAND Beach Retreat Bungalows, first opened in 2017, is made up of 83 freestanding bungalow-style buildings – – each featuring two rooms, making 166 total – – that are designed to resemble giant LEGO sets.
