Frozen 2 is open TODAY!! And, while we’ve been checking out all the Frozen treats in anticipation for the film, now we’re having another in celebration of its premiere!
We love exploring all the Walt Disney World resorts that set up lively Christmas and Gingerbread displays during the holiday season. A favorite every year is in the lobby of the BoardWalk Inn.

On this visit, we had our sights set on one thing: HOLIDAY TREATS!
It’s almost that time of year! And no, we’re not talking about the holidays…
ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex
We’re talking about the 2019 Pop Warner Super Bowl and National Cheer & Dance Championships, which takes place from Saturday, December 7th through Saturday, December 14th at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Disney World.
This annual event brings in many youth football and cheerleading teams, as well as their families, many of whom stay on property for the event. As with any special event at Disney World, it goes without saying that you should definitely expect some crowds and a little bit of crazy during this time.

You know we’re a sucker for those delicious croquetas de Pollo and the Jamon Iberico from celebrity chef Jose Andres Disney Springs outpost, Jaleo.

On December 10, the Spanish restaurant will host a five-course meal featuring award-winning wines and foods from Spain’s Rioja Baja region.
