food IS a theme park
It’s the weekend, so it’s time to take a look at the average wait times from the week in Disney World!
Hollywood Studios
Overall, wait times were lower (!!) than we saw last week, but let’s see how things fared across all four parks!
Hurray for Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Cameras are rolling!
Yes, we are BACK with the latest and greatest from the park that combines Star Wars, Toy Story, and the golden age of Hollywood. And we’ve only got a few updates since the last time we were there, so let’s get on with it!
Fair warning: this might be a niche post! BUT, we know so many of our readers LOVE Crocs. So if you are a Croc-lover, these new Disney shoes are seriously for you.
It’s a beautiful day in Animal Kingdom!
While strolling through Animal Kingdom today, we found something new over in Island Mercantile, and we definitely weren’t disappointed!
It’s a bright new era for self-expression at Disney World, thanks to the recent rule change allowing for Cast Members to show off their tattoos and gender-inclusive hairstyles!
We’ll be looking out for other CMs following these new rules!
As of yesterday, Cast Members are now able to display their unique tats, and we just found the COOLEST one yet in the form of an artsy homage to a classic Disney World ride!
“Drinking Around the World” is a Disney World pastime in EPCOT, but some places get overlooked!
Spice Road Table
With so many quick-service spots and bar counters to stop at, some of the Table Service restaurants get skipped, which is really a shame! Possibly the BEST example of this? Spice Road Table in the Morocco Pavilion. This is low-key one of the BEST places to order drinks to-go!
There are a LOT of cute things and characters at Disney World, but a good rule of thumb is that the more miniature something is, the cuter it naturally becomes, right? A good example of this is how Baby Yoda is cuter than…adult Yoda.

Another good example is an irresistible new souvenir we spotted in Animal Kingdom: a teeny-tiny Disney World autograph book keychain!
Yes, Disney World can be expensive, but who says you can’t get free things there, too?
The sun is out, so protect your skin!
We’ve told you a gazillion times about how to get free water, but you can also get free celebration buttons, free Kidcot cards, free drawing classes, and more! This weekend, we spotted a NEW freebie that will definitely get some use!
Even though it’s been quite some time since Disney World closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there are still lots of things around the resort that have remained closed.
Spaceship Earth
Between the rides, restaurants, and resorts, there are a lot of locations that have yet to welcome guests again. Here’s a quick look at everything that still hasn’t opened in Disney World.
Please Note: We have been updating this post since its initial publishing so information regarding returning experiences and reopenings is current.
Disney World Cast Members are seriously some of the most special people on Earth — and we will say that every chance we get!
Cast Member at Pizzerizzo
They go above and beyond every day to make every guest’s experience at Disney World as magical as possible. And seriously, we LOVE them for it! And Disney seems to appreciate them, too, and recently even changed its policies so that cast members could be more themselves while at work! But we seriously can’t wipe the smile off our face after the amazing, above and beyond sweet Cast Member we met today.
We’ve been keeping up with the 50th anniversary makeover that Cinderella Castle has been getting. It is LOOKING AMAZING!
LOOK at these gorgeous details!
It all started with a new paint job, but then we watched as beautiful drapes were added to the towers and pretty gold ribbons were added to the spires. This ain’t the Pepto-pink castle from 25 years ago!
