food IS a theme park
Disney World is in the middle of a massive transition, as new projects are underway all over the resort, including all four theme parks.
Walt Disney World
In the short term, these major changes are coming in the next few months!
There are lots of things to love about the Disney World water parks: it is hard to beat a day relaxing by the water, plunging down water rides, and grabbing unlimited refills in your refillable mug. To know Disney World refillable mugs is to love Disney World refillable mugs. Well, for the most part, we still have some complaints about the mug. But it is wonderful to be able to refill your mug to your heart’s content while relaxing in your beach chair.
Typhoon Lagoon
We have some bad news if you are a refillable cup fan like us, though. There is now one less location where you can find refillable mugs. The good news is that the mugs are still available at the Disney World hotels, but you currently CAN’T get them at the Disney World water parks.
In case you missed it, Brightline is at the Orlando International Airport… but that doesn’t mean you can just show up and wing it.
Brightline Orlando Station
If you’re planning to hop on a Brightline train out of Terminal C, you need to know the lay of the land before you get there. We’re talking parking chaos, sneaky shuttle wait times, and the kind of long walks that’ll have you questioning your luggage choices. Here’s everything you need to know about Brightline’s Orlando Station— because yes, there are rules, and yes, ignoring them will absolutely backfire.
An Australian Blue Heeler has taken the world by storm — we’re talking about Bluey, of course!

Typhoon Lagoon is officially OPEN! The Disney World water park has been closed since November 2024, but if you have patiently waited to ride down Miss Adventure Falls or Crush ‘n’ Gusher, your time has finally come.
Typhoon Lagoon is open!
Typhoon Lagoon has reopened as of May 1st, 2025, and while Blizzard Beach has now closed for a short refurb, we have some exciting news. Beginning May 21st, BOTH Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach will be open for the summer. Now you will have to choose which water park you want to go to! We still have a few weeks until that happens, but we are at Typhoon Lagoon for its grand reopening.
Disney World is full of unique experiences you can’t find anywhere else — that’s what keeps us coming back time and time again (okay, that and the corn dog nuggets).
Four Seasons Orlando
But, some of the BEST experiences at Disney World can’t be found in the parks at all, but instead at the hotels! Whether you’re looking for a fireworks cruise or a fancy meal, chances are you can find it. And, if it’s Afternoon Tea you’re after, you’re going to want to visit the Four Seasons Orlando!
When it comes to dining at Disney World, you’ve got a TON of options. You’ve got quick and easy options in the form of snack stands and quick service locations, but you’ve also got sit-down meals that will take a chunk out of your day and allow you to relax for a second in the form of table service restaurants.
Welcome to Disney World
We recently stopped by Frontera Cocina in Disney Springs to see what was cookin’, and now we’re bringing you our FULL review. Is it worth a stop on your next trip to the iconic shopping and dining district? We’re finding out!
We love the first of every month because that’s usually when Gideon’s Bakehouse drops its menu for the month.
Gideon’s Bakehouse in Disney Springs
Now that it’s officially May, Gideon’s is celebrating Halfway to Halloween with one of the best ways possible — with lots of sweets! Let’s dive into the new May menu and see what’s in store.
CALLING ALL MILLENNIAL DISNEY FANS! Disney is celebrating the 30th anniversary of A Goofy Movie, and if they’re trying to make us feel old, it’s working.

Still, we’re down for any excuse to talk about this underrated hit, and between the new Powerline Max popcorn bucket and the merch collection that was just released, it’s been the talk of the town. Apparently, Disney isn’t done celebrating this movie yet because they just debuted a NEW Powerline virtual reality experience!
What is going on with this restaurant in EPCOT, and why is its fate still up in the air?
Restaurant Marrakesh
The Morocco Pavilion in EPCOT has been a little low on dining offerings ever since the COVID-19 pandemic. Previously, you could dine at Restaurant Marrakesh, Spice Road Table, or Tangierine Cafe pre-2020 days. However, Restaurant Marrakesh has been closed ever since. This restaurant served Moroccan fare and even offered entertainment in the form of a belly dancer. So what’s going on with it now?
