food IS a theme park
Hello, DFB friends. We’re here at the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival!
Magnolia Terrace
And we’ve been spending our day eating ALL the food, checking out some of the entertainment, and admiring all the gorgeous gardens and topiaries!
Are you headed to Disney World in March or April? If yes, we’ve got some great news for you!
This is THE view.
Although we’ve been seeing park pass reservations fill up quickly for both March and April, it seems Disney has released more park pass reservations for select days!
Hey, y’all! We are LIVE from the EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival!
So much COLOR!
We’ve spent the day looking at all the beautiful gardens and topiaries of the festival, but we’ve also spent the day trying out ALL THE FOODS at the festival booths. Because, hey, someone’s got to do it, right? 😛
Welcome back, DFB friends!
It’s Gertie!
We had a pretty awesome day at Disney’s Hollywood Studios — and in fact, we invited you along with us! But we also made sure to check out all the shops, food spots, and more to make sure we keep you up to date on everything going on there!
It might feel like spring is coming all over the U.S., but it’s starting to feel like summer at Disney World!
It’s a bright sunshiney day
We’ve had a lot of bright sunshine and we’ve been looking for creative ways to shield our eyes from the sun. So we’re checking out some cool Disney sunglasses, along with some umbrellas (they are for WAY more than just rain), and hats!
Guess where we’re at — go ahead, we bet you’ll never guess!
We will never get tired of this view
Okay, so it’s a pretty easy guess, and yes, we’re at Disney World! Again! We had reporters in three parks today, and they had an amazing time riding rides, eating (because, well, that’s what we do), and wandering around EPCOT, Magic Kingdom, and Disney’s Hollywood Studios living THE life!
Is it just us or is this week — no, this month — flying? It’s almost the end of February!
Welcome back, Big River Grill and Brewing Works!
It’s already been a few weeks since we indulged in Valentine’s Day treats, and we’re gearing up for next week’s debut of the 2021 EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival. But that didn’t stop Disney World from reopening a restaurant this week and updating TONS of menus throughout the resort.
We’re not going to lie — sometimes our biggest complaint about Disney World is that it’s sometimes hard to just find a place to sit!
Hollywood Studios!
And after hours on your feet all day, you’ll totally get where we’re coming from. Social distancing guidelines have also made seating particularly tricky, so we get excited when we find new places to take a chill at the parks!
Based on a few comments below where this post is being misinterpreted, we need to clarify that our goal with this meal was not to test Disney restaurants to see how well the rule is being enforced, or to try to not wear our masks throughout the meal. Our job, as always, is to describe our experience with the restaurant and the policies and to do so in an honest, thoughtful way. We wrote a post after the parks reopened where we discussed forgetting to put our mask on to walk to the restroom at California Grill. That was a mortifying mistake, but it was not intentional. And we think it’s important to share those errors with our readers so that they can be aware of just how easy it can be to break the rules when you have no intention of doing so. It’s good, valuable information, and so we share it in order to keep more people safe on their trips to Disney World.
We’ve seen a lot of updates made to Disney World’s face mask policy since the parks reopened.
Guess where we’re eating?
Disney World has strictly upheld these policies to adhere to appropriate health and safety guidelines. Guests must wear masks all the time when on Disney property, except when eating and drinking while stationary, swimming, or in a relaxation station. However, Disney recently announced an update on its policy regarding eating in restaurants.
A LOT is happening at EPCOT right now! The park is undergoing a major transformation — we’re already in love with the new fountain in front of Spaceship Earth (seriously, we can’t stop taking photos of it).
Hello, you beautiful fountain
We’re also eagerly awaiting the arrival of Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, although we’re getting impatient for some opening date announcements! C’mon, Disney — throw us a bone here!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
