food IS a theme park
If you want to make plans with me on Monday night, DON’T…I’ll be busy!

Why? Because it’s DISNEY NIGHT (eep!!!) on Dancing With the Stars and I simply cannot wait! Our team here at DFB has been heavily invested in this season — even going as far as creating a work-wide bracket challenge — but this might be the night we’re the most hyped about. And now, we know which songs will be performed!
Candy canes! Mickey wreaths! Santa hats! If we’re talking about those, it’s time for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom. This seasonal after-hours event transforms Magic Kingdom into a winter wonderland filled with exclusive entertainment, snacks, and characters.

Disney World just announced the snacks coming to the event, and if you don’t have tickets yet, you might want to grab some before they sell out, because this year’s menus sound amazing.
We’ve seen a lot of wild Disney rumors lately!
Cinderella Castle
From rumors about new attractions to gossip about Disney celebrities, we’ve seen it all. But right now, one big story swirling around on the internet is that Disney is building a theme park in Ohio…and we’re here to tell you the TRUTH.
Does your screen time make you wince when you see it? Yeah, us too, and considering we spend so much time in Disney World waiting in line for rides by ourselves, it’s no wonder it’s so high.
Disney World lines can be pretty wild
But we’d be lying if we said our eyes weren’t beginning to struggle, and we want other hobbies than just staring at our phones, so we’ve set out on a mission to find other hobbies. We know a lot of you are thinking the same thing, so we’ve decided to help everyone out at one time! We’ve compiled a list of some of the best alternative hobbies to do while you’re in line at Disney World, so that way we can all get off our phones together.
When it comes to dining at Disney World, you’ve got a TON of options. Want something quick and easy? You’ve got it. Something middle of the road and comforting? Yep, that too. And if you’re looking for something upscale and luxurious, you can find that as well.
New eats from Columbia Harbour House
We recently stopped by Columbia Harbour House at Magic Kingdom to check out their newly revamped menu, and now we’re bringing you our FULL review. Is it worth a stop on your next trip to the Most Magical Place on Earth? Find out here!
The holiday season is just around the corner, and we know EXACTLY what it is we’ll be doing!

There’s nothing better than curling up on your couch, hot cocoa and cookies within reach, watching your favorite Christmas movies and holiday specials! Our go-to is usually something on Disney+, but as the season of holiday specials arrives, there are a few Disney specials you’re going to want to tune into on ABC.
One of the BEST things you can do to ride as many attractions as possible on your trip to Disney World is to utilize the single rider lines, but WHY did nobody warn me that I’d have to sacrifice social awkwardness for a shorter wait time?!
Test Track
Now, I’m not unaccustomed to being socially awkward, but the amount that I felt as a single rider riding Test Track was TOO MUCH, and here’s why…
We all love a good Disney World vacation, but it’s the getting-there part that can sometimes be a hassle!
Magic Kingdom
Once you fly into Orlando, there are two things that you need to worry about — getting you and your party to Disney World, and hauling your luggage with you. Well, no need to worry about paying extra for an Uber to bring all your luggage, because Disney actually transfers your luggage to certain Disney hotels. The lists of hotels that offer the perk are limited, but THREE more have just been added!
It’s not uncommon for us to see Disney employing cost-cutting measures when the budget is tighter than it should be.
The Walt Disney Company headquarters in California
From price hikes in the theme parks to project cancelations, Disney has used a variety of methods in the past to save money. Unfortunately, the latest round of budget tightening comes with some layoffs.
We’ve got ride updates, seasonal snacks, new stores, and revamped hotel rooms… But we’ve ALSO got our fair share of closures to worry about too. Seriously, SO MANY THINGS have been closing in Disney World lately, and we’re not here to turn a blind eye to that.
Crowds at the Animation Courtyard
So instead, we’re taking all these closures head-on to figure out WHY they’re happening (and how much they’ll ACTUALLY impact your upcoming trip).
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
