food IS a theme park
It’s official: the flying Buzz Lightyear toy is officially back in STOCK. And we don’t think it’ll stay in stock for long!

This is sure to be one of the HOTTEST toys this season, and one that your little one will remember 20+ years from now. It’s seriously that cool.
Earlier this year, we saw LEGOLAND Florida debut a one-of-a-kind roller coaster called the Galacticoaster. Well, that ride has now received some high praise from the Golden Ticket Awards!
The Galacticoaster
LEGOLAND Florida opened its first-ever indoor roller coaster on February 27th, and it became the park’s most technologically advanced ride ever. Now, LEGOLAND is being celebrated for a standout year in innovation after earning top recognition in Amusement Today’s 2026 Golden Ticket Awards, and Galacticoaster is at the center.
Earlier this year, we had an opportunity to visit Efteling theme park in Europe, which was one of the most unique and charming theme parks we think we’ve ever been to. Spoiler alert: we LOVED IT.

We recently learned that the theme park was refreshing one of its lands, Raveleijn, which would transform the area with a new storyline, new decor, and new effects. That land will reopen on December 1st, and ahead of its opening, Efteling has shared a new look at one of that land’s NEW rides.
Let’s be honest… waiting in lines at Disney World is something you’d expect to do on your vacation. From rides and shows to dining at quick-service locations and shopping, there is a lot to do and a lot to wait for. But you’d never really expect to wait in lines at Disney Springs.

Believe it or not, there are actually quite a few places you have to wait in line at Disney Springs, but the longest line is one you’d never expect…
Disney World has been working on just about EVERYTHING at the resort…the parks are getting new lands, expansions, and rides, and hotels are getting refurbishments, new rooms, and more. Well, Disney World restaurants are also getting some refreshing.
The Turf Club Bar & Grill!
That includes The Turf Club Bar and Grill at Disney’s Saratoga Springs Resort, which closed in late August for a refurbishment. Now, that restaurant is scheduled to reopen on September 30th, and Disney just dropped a first look at the restaurant’s full menu.

Can you believe it’s already almost October? We certainly can’t, but we are excited because it means that one of our favorite times at Disney World is right around the corner.
It’s almost Christmas time in Disney World!
Don’t get us wrong, we love the Halloween decor all over the parks, but what amazes us each and every year is how FAST Disney switches over from Halloween to the holidays! The majority of Halloween decor is in Magic Kingdom each year, with bits and pieces in the other three parks. For the holidays, though, each park gets its own transformation, and it’s so close we can taste it. If you’ve never seen it happen before, allow us to show you just a bit of what it’s like to get you as excited as we are!
Here at Disney Food Blog, we’re Disney World experts who are at the parks all day, every day, and we love keeping you updated to make sure your vacation is as magical as ever.
