food IS a theme park
The holidays are pretty different in Disney World this year, but one thing hasn’t changed all that much. It’s still one of the most crowded times!
Holiday Crowds
Yes, that is a picture from today in Magic Kingdom as folks crowd around in the Frontierland bottleneck to watch a (granted very cool) Christmas Cavalcade. Capacities are limited this year to 25%, but that hasn’t stopped crowding at all times, even to the point of making social distancing an issue.
If you haven’t noticed, we’re enjoying a holiday treat-PALOOZA in Disney World today!
Pceos Bill Tall Tale Inn & Cafe
And we’re stopping by Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe for our next seasonal snack! This Frontierland spot is the place for Mexican fare served counter service style in Magic Kingdom. And if you find yourself here during this festive time of year, you may have a tough time deciding whether you should fill your stomach with tacos or holiday treats. Well, Pecos Bill has come up with a solution to that dilemma… sort of.
Oh boy, have we got some HOLIDAY CHEER to spread today!
Starbucks Sign
We’re going to say some beautiful words to you. Chestnut Praline, Caramel Brulee, Peppermint Mocha — are you drooling yet? That’s right, Christmas drinks are BACK at Starbucks!
It’s the most wonderful time of the year in the most magical place on Earth and we’re having a BLAST spotting all of the holiday entertainment!
Animal Kingdom Entrance
Christmas looks pretty different this year in Disney World, but at least there are some good things to come of the situation. For one, we’re spotting Christmas Character Cavalcades in all four parks — including Animal Kingdom!
It’s no surprise here but we’re PUMPED that holiday drinks are back at Starbucks.
Starbucks in Disney Springs
We’re rocking around Disney Springs today to see if we can spot any holiday cheer since it is the OFFICIAL start of the holiday season in Disney World. Sure enough, we found some delightful Christmas spirit at the Disney Springs Marketplace Starbucks!
With the release of California’s theme park guidelines, Disneyland parks might not be able to open for a while.
Disneyland Resort
For most of the park closure, Disneyland has been canceling guests’ resort hotel reservations as the weeks go on. Recently, cancellations stretched through November 14th, and now there’s another round of cancel;ation notices.
Disney loves to give us difficult decisions to make.
Magic Kingdom
From which UNIQUE piece of merchandise to spend our money on, to how best to get ourselves on Rise of the Resistance; we’re taking a look at the 30 hardest Disney choices we’ve had to make in the last 30 days!
Disney Annual Passholders get access to a lot of sweet exclusive merchandise.
Christmas Plywood Villages
You can find LOTS of this special merch at the Annual Passholder Pop-Up Shop in EPCOT’s Germany Pavilion. We recently spotted some all-new Passholder Christmas merch, but these surprising souvenirs we just found might be even better.
EPCOT’s World Showcase has got some SERIOUSLY unique merch in the various countries.
Fish & Chips Minnie Ears
The UK Pavilion has brought us some favorite souvenirs over the years at its various stores. And today, we spotted perhaps the COOLEST UK Pavilion merch yet. What’s more British than tea and pub fare? ROCK ‘N ROLL!
We’ve been talking a LOT about Christmas lately, but we can’t forget about Thanksgiving! After all, we are EATERS around here.
Turkey Gobbler Sandwich
Christmas might have some yummy snacks and meals, but the food is the CENTERPIECE of a good Thanksgiving. Luckily, we found a pretty awesome tribute to Turkey Day in Disney World today — and it’s in SANDWICH form.
