food IS a theme park
Here at DFB, we’re HUGE Disney fans!
Chester and Hester’s Dinosaur Treasures
However, we’re not the biggest fans — that title goes to our friend over at Chester & Hester’s Dinosaur Treasures in Disney’s Animal Kingdom! Let’s meet them together!
You don’t need us to tell ya that Disney World has some hardcore fans.
Cinderella Castle
And those fans tend to have an unspoken list of classic rides, top eats, and popular opinions that are generally undisputed. That’s just how it goes! But what if you DON’T agree? Well, we may be right there with you! Here are 10 things Disney fans are too afraid to say…but a lot of ‘em may be thinking it. 😉
It’s that time of the week again where we check in on the latest construction progress around Disney World!
Disney World just turned 50!
And, while LOTS of projects wrapped up last week with the debut of the 50th-anniversary celebrations, there are still a few things that Disney is working on. So, now we’re bringing you a look at construction on some upcoming attractions in TWO parks, a ride that is getting demolished, and more!
It’s 50th Anniversary season in Disney World and that means a TON of new treats! With so many new snacks, it can be hard to figure out which ones are the best!
Magic Kingdom
To determine what the greatest 50th Anniversary snack is, we’re gathering votes from our readers (that’s you!) over on our Instagram page! We’re now in round three of the Disney World 50th Anniversary Treats & Eats Bracket 5000 (patent pending) and here are the results from the most recent votes!
There is a LOT going on at Disney World right now.
Magic Kingdom Halloween decor
We’ve got all the 50th anniversary celebration stuff happening (food, decor, cavalcades, fireworks, and more!). AND it’s spooky season, too, meaning that all the Halloween decor, snacks, and parties are going on!
Now that the kick-off of Disney World’s 50th Anniversary has, well…kicked off, crowds are a little more manageable at the parks again.
Rafiki’s Planet Watch
But it IS the weekend, which means there are a few more people in the parks today than previously this week. They are ready to eat some 50th anniversary snacks, take in a nighttime show or two, and try to find all the 50 golden character statues. We’re doing the same, but we’ve noticed something odd: the longest line today is actually for something that surprised us!
In celebration of the 50th anniversary of Disney World, a TON of new merch has been released…and there’s still more to come!
50th Merchandise
From popcorn buckets to spirit jerseys to Minnie Ears, there’s a 50th anniversary souvenir to fit pretty much anybody’s taste. And today, we spotted another adorable addition to the celebration!
We forget this sometimes after neverending planning, budgeting, and preparing but going to Disney World is meant to be a VACATION. It is a destination meant to leave us relaxed, invigorated, and an escape from the pressure of the everyday. But, as we know, it can also be a little stressful at times!
Goofy gets it
Sure, there are things that happen that are out of our control (like bad weather or ride closures), there are things we can plan for, like days when we know the parks might be crowded, during a season with notoriously bad weather, or days when park pass reservations are full. But here’s the thing: there’s a reason that these days are stressful.
Another week has gone by and we’ve got LOTS of Disney news to share with you.
Magic Kingdom
From a new Star Wars experience coming to Disney Cruise Line, to all kinds of 50th Anniversary updates, join us now as we go through the BIG Disney news stories from this week that you need to know about!
Disney Genie is launching soon, people! It will debut in Disney World on October 19th.

While the main part of Genie is the free portion that helps you plan your Disney World trip, one of the new paid features launching with the program is Individual Attraction Selection, or pay-per-ride. These are high-demand rides that you can pay individually to skip the line of using the new Lightning Lanes. These rides are also not included with Genie+, the new paid program replacing FastPass+. We’ve learned a lot about this pay-per-ride system, but Disney just announced more important information that you need to know if you’re going to pay for these individual rides.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
