food IS a theme park
Hello from the Experimental Prototype Community Of Tomorrow, aka EPCOT!
Mickey!
We’ve been keeping an eye on things at the park so that we can keep you updated on the very latest. So are you ready? Let’s get on with the updates!
If you’re planning a trip to Disney World soon, you’ll definitely want to keep an eye on the park hours!
Who else is ready to walk right down the middle of Main Street, U.S.A.?
We recently saw some April hours extended for some days, and we saw that Disney had released park hours for early June. Now, we have hours through mid-June!
We think that Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew can pretty unique at times. Not only are the cold brews pretty yummy, but we’re big fans of the over-the-top donuts!

Where else are you going to get a Grilled Cheese Sandwich ON A DONUT, after all? But the hits keep on coming, because Everglazed just announced a brand new donut, just in time for Easter.
When’s the last time a Disney character like Meeko got any love? Or Mrs. Potts? Or Lumiere? Or Flounder?

Let us tell you — it doesn’t happen often! Yes, we have seen SOME merchandise with rare characters, including a MagicBand with Bunny and Ducky from Toy Story, a backpack with characters from Raya and the Last Dragon, and an entire collection dedicated to Disney animal friends. But it’s still not enough.
Disneyland Resort hasn’t even reopened yet, but there are BIG plans in the works for the theme parks!

Although Disney California Adventure is currently hosting the A Touch of Disney dining and shopping event that opened up every part of the park EXCEPT for the rides, Disneyland will reopen both parks (including rides) on April 30th, over a year after it initially closed. Today, we got news that Disneyland is already planning for the future, though. Disney recently revealed some new “long-term plans for theme park, retail, and parking expansion.”
Hello to all our DFB Friends!
Tree of Life — it’s so magnificent!
Guess where we’ve been? Disney’s Animal Kingdom! And we’ve been looking for all the new stuff that’s popped up since we were last there, so you can stay updated! So let’s go!
This year marks the 50th anniversary of Disney World, and Disney is getting ready to throw a VERY glitzy birthday party!
Decorations are already going up!
And decorations at Magic Kingdom are already going up! The castle got a spiffy new paint job, along with some brand new GORGEOUS decor! Bonjour Village Gifts just got a new look, AND we’ve even learned that the Main Street Confectionery is about to get a serious makeover!
Being a D23 Gold Members comes with quite a few discounts and exclusive items.
Stop by the D23 Photo Op at A Touch of Disney! It’s not nice to point unless you’re Mickey Mouse!
We’ve seen a really cool annual gift that comes with some sweet Disney merch and some free stuff. Plus there are member discounts, as well as early access to special Disney merchandise. Now, there’s another D23 Gold Member exclusive collection.
We all have a favorite Disney movie character. And for many, it’s usually the main character from one of Disney’s films — like who doesn’t love the princes and princesses, right? But sometimes, the other characters — those who are often the comic relief — get left out of the love. Although we DO love them, they tend to be left out when it comes to Disney merchandise.

Sure, we got an Animal Friends collection last year, along with a cute Raya and the Last Dragon backpack with her sidekicks on it, and there was even an Easter MagicBand with two rare Toy Story side characters! But today, Dooney & Bourke released a new collection that features characters we RARELY see on stuff.
Cinderella Castle is currently getting a HUGE makeover and updates for the big 50th anniversary celebration that starts later this year!
Decorations are already going up!
We’ve already seen it get a new paint job, watched it get some work done that required the moat to be drained, and got details about what it will look like later this year. And, there are already some shiny new decorative elements on it!
