food IS a theme park
We’ve been warning you about the Spring Break crowds expected in Disney World, but we’ve also noted that they haven’t descended on Orlando yet!
The crowds DO seem a bit sparse in the Magic Kingdom this afternoon!
But something weird is going on today!
UPDATED July 24, 2024
Spring has officially sprung in Disney World, with the EPCOT Flower & Garden Festival having just kicked off.
The Flower & Garden Festival is here
Everywhere you look in EPCOT you’ll find gorgeous floral topiaries and a ton of delicious FOOD! But, did this festival bring crowds and long wait times along with it? We’re taking a look at Genie+ data to find out!
We’ve seen a lot of cool Disney merchandise in our time.
Princess Aurora
We keep an eye out for all the latest Loungefly and Vera Bradley Disney merchandise, as well as everything in between. But does this new item take the cake for the coolest Disney bag we’ve seen?
🚨 WARNING! 🚨 You’re missing out on some of the BEST food in Disney World!
Magic Kingdom!
Disney World has so many restaurants and snacks to pick from, it can really be overwhelming. You can certainly go watch our video about the BEST food in Disney World, but if you want a list of just the best desserts in Magic Kingdom, you’ve come to the right place!
Remember that time Disney teased that an entire LAND could be gutted and rethemed in Animal Kingdom? Or when they lured us in with the potential of a true Casa Madrigal from Encanto (tears may or may not have been shed)? Wait…you don’t know what we’re talking about? Well buckle up, we’ve got some news for you!
Walt Disney World
Back at the D23 Expo in 2022, Disney shared all kinds of updates, but for those looking toward the future of the parks these “Blue Sky” ideas were some of the more exciting ones. We’ve already taken a look at just what a “Blue Sky” idea is and how likely it is that some of these things will actually happen. But today we’re taking a closer look at those teased expansions and identifying some potential rides that could be made. Wonder what the future of the Disney parks might look like? THIS is the post for you.
So… you’ve got (or will soon be getting) a MagicBand or MagicBand+ for your Walt Disney World vacation! But how, exactly, does this unique piece of technology-on-your-wrist work, and what can you DO with it?
MagicBand+
MagicBands made their debut in 2013 as one component of MyMagic+, a system allowing guests to plan and experience their Disney World vacation in a whole new way. The suite introduced and incorporated MagicBands along with My Disney Experience. And now MagicBand+ has joined the family with even more interactive experiences and customizable options.
Not all drinks are made equal in Disneyland: That goes for all drink flights, too.
It’s time to EAT!
We’re at the 2023 Disney California Adventure Food & Wine Festival and we’ve been eating a TON of food there, enjoying some fun entertainment, and more! So we’re heading on over to the Uncork California booth, where we’re checking out some food, as well as another drink flight.
Believe it or not, you can get free things in Disney World.

For example, you can get free “I’m Celebrating” buttons for your birthday, anniversary, and other special occasions, as well as free “First Visit” buttons. You can also get FREE water at many Disney World quick-service locations. Even Disney World transportation is free. You can also occasionally get free upgrades, and we’re going to tell you about one such free upgrade that makes for a VERY unique souvenir!
It’s time for another Disneyland Food & Wine Festival review!
Jammin’ Chefs!
