food IS a theme park
We want to wish a VERY happy birthday to La Cava del Tequila!
La Cava del Tequila
This tequila lounge in the Mexico Pavilion at EPCOT, best known for its La Cava Avocado margarita and shots of tequila, turned 11 years old earlier this week!
We have been LOVING the Taste of EPCOT Food and Wine Festival!
2020 Taste of EPCOT
And we’ve been even MORE thrilled with it ever since more food booths opened up this weekend!
Walt Disney World is always changing, growing, or under construction.
Magic Kingdom
However, many theme park projects were put on hold or canceled altogether when the global health crisis hit. Earlier, EPCOT’s proposed Spaceship Earth refurbishment and Mary Poppin’s attraction were postponed indefinitely. Then, Primeval Whirl, Stitches Great Escape, and Rivers of Light were permanently closed. Despite budget cuts and supply shortages, Disney has still managed to pull off a few new projects over the summer.
There are SO MANY delicious things to try at the 2020 Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival.
France Festival Booth

POP
In previous years, we’ve been met with a ton of competition for the best Halloween treats including Pumpkin Spice Milkshakes, Haunted Mansion wedding cakes, and villainous floats. A ton of these treats are making a return to Disney World this year, but we were curious whether a certain spooky drink would make come back.
So, guess what?? Pop’s Potion has made a return to Pop Century! We had the chance to get in the spirit of the season and try Pop’s Potion again. We had to see if tasted as good as last year, right?

It’s a little different this year, but we’ve really been enjoying the 2020 Taste of EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival this year!
Food & Wine 2020!
We’ve had so many delicious treats! But, of course, no EPCOT festival is complete without TONS of great merch! We’re taking a look at ALL the new festival merchandise, so hold onto your hats (and get those wallets ready)!
With limited capacity and no FastPass+ being two major changes in a reopened Disney World, many have wondered exactly what the impact has been on the average wait time for the many rides and attractions at the four theme parks.
Crowds at Magic Kingdom
After visiting the parks nearly every day since the phased reopening began and checking out the various wait times for ourselves, we wanted to share some insight on what expected wait times have been versus what the reality ACTUALLY was!
It was a cloudy day in Disney World…
Magic Kingdom
… but that didn’t keep us from feeling the MAGIC in Magic Kingdom, where we strolled right down the middle of Main Street, U.S.A. — and everywhere else in the park, too, of course! — to show YOU what’s NEW!
Let’s go! [Read more…]
