food IS a theme park
What we love about Disney World is the attention to detail.
Main Street, U.S.A.
We see it on the rides, in the little details just walking through the parks, with the characters, and more. Even the Cast Member costumes are themed to the area or ride Cast Members are working (like, is any outfit more iconic than the Haunted Mansion Cast Member costumes?). Well, now, Cast Members who work in Magic Kingdom are getting a new look!
Here at Disney Food Blog, we like to keep it real. We give credit where credit is due. Yes, we have a team full of former Cast Members, Disney park EXPERTS, and Annual Passholders. But even those of us who go to Disney World *literally* every single day still find new and exciting things that we HAVE to share. Today, we owe our excitement to a DFB reader!
EPCOT
We love to share any kind of lunch secrets, dining hacks, and reservation changes that we come across. We’ve told you how to avoid a major food fiasco and how to join a walk-up waitlist, but today, we’re telling you something even better. Buckle up.
Does it matter what you wear to Disney World?
Would you go for an all-denim outfit?
Well, as a matter of fact, sometimes it does. For example, there’s a reason we always tell you to keep a poncho or raincoat in your day bag. The shoes you wear will make a HUGE difference, too — the last thing you want are sneakers. It’s especially important to choose your clothes wisely in the summer once the temperatures start creeping up and we’re going to tell you why.
Like many of you, we’re huge fans of Target!
Let’s go to Target!
Whether we’re popping in to buy groceries, shuffling through the racks in the clothing section, or just browsing for general entertainment on a weeknight, those Target trips are healing for the soul. And as Disney fans, we often find ourselves looking for Disney merchandise on Target’s website. However, if you want to see a MEGA Disney merchandise stash, you need to head to one store in particular!
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Disney World
Okay, it might not officially be St. Patrick’s Day yet but we’re ready to celebrate in Disney World! New treats have started rolling out around the parks and we can’t wait to see what March 17th will officially bring. But, no St. Patrick’s Day is complete without GREEN BEER and more, and here’s where you’ll find it in Disney World!
Walt Disney once said that “Disneyland will never be completed”, and the same goes for Disney World!
Partner’s Statue
There are times when Disney World has walls everywhere (we are talking about you EPCOT), or when a ride closes for refurbishment. The parks are always changing and new experiences are coming, but what about the mysterious buildings that are around the parks?
It’s always fun to play dress-up in the parks.
SO dapper
Whether you’re sporting a t-shirt repping your favorite Disney characters, rides, or foods or whether you’re wearing a full Disneybounding outfit in the parks, dressing up for the Disney Parks is a great way to add a little something extra to your Disney trips. If you REALLY love to dress up, though, you need to know about Dapper Day, when guests in Disney World and Disneyland dress to impress. Now, we know when Dapper Day will be happening on both coasts!
Spring break time is upon us! While it is always great to have a much-needed week break, it also means CROWDS at popular vacation destinations. And LOTS of them!
Spring break is here!
Lots of families use the time when kiddos are out of school to visit Disney World! If you’re also heading to the parks soon, we have a word of WARNING about the Orlando International Airport.
Okay, so what’s your favorite Disney movie?
Penguin waiter from Mary Poppins
We know, we know — it’s hard to pick just one. Perhaps you’re a big fan of Mary Poppins (and are still disappointed about the Mary Poppins attraction at Disney World that never happened). Maybe you can’t stop watching Up (and we bet you get excited seeing Kevin at Animal Kingdom). Or maybe you just adore The Little Mermaid or The Incredibles. Well, if any of these movies are your favorites, you’ll have a chance to see them on the big screen again SOON.
Things happen in Disney World, so it’s always best to be prepared for those unexpected situations.
Cinderella Castle
Sometimes rides close (often due to weather). Sometimes, there are transportation issues that could affect your day. There are occasional glitches with technology, including with the My Disney Experience app. Even entertainment can have issues arise, resulting in cancellations or delays. Well, one of our favorite Disney World parades was delayed recently — and we’re going to tell you what happened.
