Well, with this actually still BEING Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster, the ride still needs some sweet tunes, and well, it’s not like the Muppets don’t have a pretty SWEET band called Electric Mayhem, right?

NEW Look at Pueblo Esperanza in Disney’s Animal Kingdom

By Leave a Comment

Earlier this year, we said goodbye to the last of DinoLand U.S.A., as Disney closed the rest of that land to make way for a new Tropical Americas-themed land called Pueblo Esperanza.

Since then, we’ve seen a LOT of construction happening behind the scenes, as several attractions begin to take shape within the new area. We’ve recently been seeing progress on the new Encanto ride, but now, thanks to some new aerial photos, we’re seeing progress on the land’s new carousel and Indiana Jones ride, too!

By Leave a Comment

Storybook candies

Now, we know some people have specific souvenirs that they buy in the parks, like pins for pin collectors. Some of us also collect Disney mugs (and yes, we have a LOT). Others collect ears.

This Disney World Hot Take Feels Like a Personal Call Out

By Leave a Comment

Okay, let’s face it…We do things in Disney World that we would NEVER do in our regular daily lives back home.

Line for Jungle Cruise

For example, we’ll get up EXTRA early just to make it to rope drop in the parks. We’ll also throw a pair of mouse ears on our heads and walk around like that all day. We’ll even cheer, cry, and squeal when we see our favorite characters in the parks. But another thing we’ll do…and I’m calling GUILTY here…is that we’ll wait in lines for our favorite rides and characters FOR HOURS without a problem.

By 4 Comments

Okay, we’re going to admit that we’ve got some Disney World news that might just make you cry.

We see a manatee; we fall in love

So, one of our favorite things to do in EPCOT is visit The Living Seas with Nemo and Friends and head on over to the aquarium, where you can see all kinds of sea life, including turtles, seahorses, stingrays, and more.

Why You Might Want To Add a Ticket to SeaWorld During Your Disney World Vacation

By Leave a Comment

Disney World’s Soarin’ in EPCOT is a popular ride, and for a reason. It allows you to soar OVER the world without ever having to leave World Showcase. Well, that ride is set to change soon to celebrate the U.S. Bicentennial and become Soarin’ Across America.

Not to be outdone, though, SeaWorld Orlando opened a ride about a year ago that’s a lot like Soarin’. It’s called Expedition Odyssey, and it takes you soarin’ above the Arctic where you can get a bird’s eye view of what wildlife is like in one of the coldest parts of Earth. Well, that SeaWorld Orlando’s ride is ALSO getting an update!

The holiday was founded in 1995 by Claudia Evart, who was inspired to honor her siblings after losing her brother.
