food IS a theme park
Bonjour! We’re getting ready to visit Disneyland Paris to check out all the big updates that have happened to the resort recently, including the brand-new World of Frozen, and checking out the rest of Disney Adventure World, which has been completely reimagined from its previous days as The Walt Disney Studios.

The most exciting part of all that? We also officially know the FULL LIST of restaurants AND their menus coming to this new expansion. Let’s get into all the details!
Magic Kingdom is BUSY right now, y’all. Not only is Disney busy building a Cars expansion in Frontierland and a new Villains land behind Big Thunder Mountain Railroad (which is getting a big update), but Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin in Tomorrowland has also been getting a MASSIVE upgrade.

Disney recently revealed that Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin would reopen on April 8th, but ahead of that, there will be early previews of the newly updated ride. Well, Disney has confirmed the first round of previews will begin VERY SOON for Cast Members.
When it comes to snacks at Walt Disney World, there are many, many, MANY options… meaning that someone with pretty much any taste buds.
Cinnamon Roll with Orange Cream Cheese Icing
For example, during a recent trip to the “Most Magical Place on Earth,” one of our team members had a treat at EPCOT that became their FAVORITE thing on the trip, to the point that they’ve been daydreaming of it ever since.
The Haunted Mansion in Magic Kingdom is pretty iconic, and we are letting you in on one secret to this beloved ride.
Haunted Mansion
Located in Liberty Square, this iconic attraction invites guests to hop aboard a Doom Buggy and journey through the mysterious rooms and eerie grounds of the mansion. Inside, 999 Happy Haunts are waiting to greet visitors — and as they love to remind everyone, “There’s always room for one more!” Just like many attractions across Disney World, the Haunted Mansion is filled with clever details and hidden touches. One fun example? Some of the mansion’s stone turrets are actually designed to resemble chess pieces!
Of course, noticing those hidden details is only part of the fun. While you might joke about becoming the mansion’s 1,000th resident, there’s also a way for guests to dive even deeper into the story by channeling their inner detective and solving a mystery of their own.

Welcome. To. DISNEY WORLD. A place where dreams come true and… MAJOR mistakes can happen?
Don’t make these mistakes!
Wait, hold up. THAT doesn’t sound right… Let’s FIX those things that first-time guests ALWAYS get wrong before it’s TOO LATE.
Disney World’s Value Resorts are a little like ordering the cute little appetizer that turns out to be secretly filling. You look at it and think, “That’ll do for now,” and then suddenly it’s carrying the whole meal.
Disney’s Art of Animation
For a lot of people, Disney’s Value Resorts really are the smartest move on property. You still get those very important Disney Resort hotel perks like complimentary transportation and Early Theme Park Entry. You get a Disney bubble hotel, big theming, food on site, pools, and easy access to the parks without paying Deluxe prices that can make your wallet emit a tiny haunted whisper.
