Disappearing rainbow corridors, a seemingly-limitless number of hidden Mickeys, and…Kurt Russel?
Disney World is full of mysteries.
Not all of the Minnie ears in Disney World blow us away. Sometimes we’re a little underwhelmed or confused by the new designs, and some designs become downright controversial among Disney fans.
Even the most iconic accessories can’t get it right 100% of the time! We’ve recently spotted a controversial set of Minnie ears in the parks — some people think these look a little bit cheap, and others love their vibe. Whichever side you’re on, you can now get to these ears without even going into the Disney parks!
We clearly love Disney World restaurants! Maybe especially the ones at Magic Kingdom, where the nostalgia factor hits HARD. But let’s be real: some restaurants are just better than others. And if there’s one place that makes this fact abundantly clear, it’s Yelp.
While certain Magic Kingdom restaurants don’t get a lot of love (to put it kindly), others are hallowed ground in Disney World, and Yelpers love to sing their praises for their faves!
This is NOT going to come as a shock to you, but sometimes it’s easy to forget — the Disney parks didn’t just pop into being. No, there were and are a lot of incredibly talented people involved in their concept, creation, and continued existence.
The biggest Disney fans — and especially those who love to learn about the history and interworkings of the theme parks — know a few key people who have made a HUGE impact on the parks. Mary Blair, the Sherman brothers, and Alice Davis are just a few of these instrumental creators. But now Disney is honoring another person who contributed immensely to many Disney projects and whose influence reaches far beyond the Disney company. [Read more…]
Disney has been making nuiMOs plushes for a TON of different characters lately, and they’re not stopping any time soon!
We’ve seen Kermit and Miss Piggy, Disney Princesses, The Nightmare Before Christmas characters, and more be turned into nuiMOs. And, guess what? NEW nuiMOs are now available online with characters from a popular Disney movie!
Okay, so we get it, we understand just how easy it is to spend a LOT of money on Disney World souvenirs.

Vault Collection merchandise
And let’s face it, some of the most popular souvenirs aren’t cheap — a single spirit jersey can run nearly $80! And even if we’re just buying mugs and t-shirts, it adds up fast. But you could buy better souvenirs FROM HOME and save a lot of money!
Prepare all you want, but sometimes the Florida heat is A LOT to handle!

Tree of Life
Purchase all the water and expensive spray bottle fans in the parks that you can, you’ll still find that facing a 90-degree day with 100% humidity is enough to make anyone question when they are spending thousands of dollars to melt like Olaf in Disney World. But, luckily, there are a few snacks that provide you with that little extra relief (and sugar boost) to get you through. And, today we noticed that one of our favorite Quick Service spots to cool off was open once again in Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Remember those bright and colorful Stitch Crashes Disney collections we’ve shown you in the past? Well, the next series in the collection is HERE in Disney World!
Over the last year, we’ve been sharing ALL the Stitch Crashes Disney collections. Each collection includes Stitch pins, MagicBands, and plushes inspired by different Disney movies! We recently saw the Pocahontas collection arrive online, plus the first few items from the Mulan line, and now, we just found two Stitch plushes in the parks for the first time!
You know the old saying, “I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream!“? Well, we’re not sure whose idea it was to scream about ice cream — seems a little extreme, doesn’t it? Of course, we, too are pretty passionate about ice cream, especially Salt & Straw ice cream. Now, it’s our turn to talk (in an appropriate volume) about the latest ice cream flavors to arrive in Downtown Disney.

Salt & Straw
Before we get into it, for our friends on the east coast, we’ve got good news! Salt & Straw is opening a location in Disney Springs, and it’s coming very soon! But while we wait for Disney Springs to get it together, let’s check out the seasonal flavors at Salt & Straw in Disneyland.
It’s beginning to look a lot like springtime in Disney! Now that the Flower and Garden Festival started, we’re seeing floral topiaries all over EPCOT, plus some new seasonal treats have us excited for warmer weather and the upcoming holidays! Yeah, it’s safe to say that spring has sprung in Disney World.

Let’s take a peek at the weather!
For our friends who have a vacation to Disney World coming up during the second week of March, you might want to see the weather forecast in Orlando before you leave. It’s been pretty warm in Orlando lately, but spring weather sometimes brings rain, rain, and more rain to Disney World. Luckily, we’re back this week to take a look at the upcoming weather forecast in Disney World!
