food IS a theme park
November is almost here, and with it comes a ton of holiday changes to Disney World, including to Animal Kingdom!

While the resort’s fourth theme park doesn’t offer a massive holiday event like Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, Jollywood Nights, or The Festival of the Holidays, that doesn’t mean that Animal Kingdom is left out of the season’s cheer! Let’s take a look at everything changing at Animal Kingdom next month!
If one thing holds our entire Disney World trip together, it’s the My Disney Experience app. This single app has almost everything we need, from dining reservations and Lightning Lanes to hotel information and even wait times, so we know which rides to hit. Right now, it seems to be having some issues that we’re struggling with.

When we opened the app this morning, a pop-up appeared showing that it might be a rough day for the Disney World app.
The holidays in Disney World are a MUCH bigger deal than you realize. The crowds are bigger, the prices are higher, and the atmosphere is MORE magical.

There are tons of ways to celebrate around Disney World for Christmas and New Year’s Eve thanks to limited-time snacks, special entertainment, and more. One of the most exclusive and exciting ways to celebrate isn’t even in the theme parks, and trust us, you’re going to want to write these details down if you’re looking to get fancy!
Packing for Disney World can be difficult. There’s so much you WANT to bring, but there is only so much that you CAN bring!
Magic Kingdom
We’ve been to Disney World so much that we like to consider ourselves experts on what is absolutely essential to have with you on your vacation. We’ve narrowed it down to eight things that not only bring, but every other Disney Adult is packing for themselves. So, let’s dive right into it!
While we’ve been on the lookout for the Glob Theater sign at Monstropolis in Disney’s Hollywood Studios and find ourselves sad every day it isn’t there, that doesn’t mean there isn’t work being done on the land!
Progress, y’all! Progress!
We stop by the construction site nearly every day to see what’s new, and while sometimes it feels like watching paint dry (because often that’s quite literally what’s happening), there are times that Disney surprises us with some new details, which is exactly what just happened the other day! While we were walking by, we noticed that not only is there some new paint and details along the buildings, but…are those WORDS?
One thing we love about Disney World is that restaurants are always trying to think outside the box when it comes to food. Now, we’ve tried some questionable things in Disney World, basically food experiments that didn’t really work, but we still have to applaud the effort.
Croissant Burger
So when we discovered that a Croissant Burger existed in EPCOT, we were very intrigued, so we made our way over to the France Pavilion (because where else would it be?) to check it out.
Nothing hurts more than when you fall in love with a souvenir at Disney World, only to take a look at the price and find out that it doesn’t fit in your budget!
Magic Kingdom
Well, what if we told you that there are Disney finds on Amazon that give off the same vibes as Disney World souvenirs, but they are nowhere near the price that you’d find at the park. As if that’s not enough to intrigue, they’re also SUPER nostalgic!
We hate to tell you this, but Magic Kingdom doesn’t always have the best food. Eek! We said it. For some reason, this park lacks some of the iconic dishes other parks have, but when you’re in the most famous park, you still have to eat. That’s why we’re here! We’ve eaten everywhere in Magic Kingdom and beyond, and we’re sharing a few places you might want to hit up on your trip.
Let’s eat!
This time, we’re heading to Tony’s Town Square Restaurant in Magic Kingdom. Okay, we have to admit, this isn’t generally our favorite restaurant of all time. While it has some solid options, we prefer other, more unique restaurants like Cinderella’s Royal Table or Be Our Guest. But with a new menu item, is it worth another visit? Let’s find out!
We’re on the hunt to find the BEST hotel in Disney World to work from home at, and we’re basing it all on their coffee, their atmosphere, and their space (the number of tables and outlets available). Welcome to episode FOUR of trying to find out which Disney World hotel is the best for people who want good coffee and also want to add a little Disney magic to their workday!
Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground
As a writer for DFB, I have the privilege of working from home. And living close to Disney World gives me another privilege on top of that — working from the resorts! Today, we’re headed to Fort Wilderness Resort & Campgrounds!
