food IS a theme park
Think you know everything about planning a Disney World vacation? THINK AGAIN. Things around here change constantly, and even if you took a vacation last November, things are ENTIRELY different.
Cinderella Castle
And the Magic Kingdom isn’t a special exception — it’s actually changed SO MUCH over the past year. So, what do you need to know about going to Magic Kingdom in November? Let’s talk it out.
We finally got an update on Universal Orlando’s Horror Make-Up Show, and it’s a big one!
Universal Studios Orlando
Universal Horror Make-Up Show at Universal Studios Florida closed earlier this year on May 12th. The closure was for a refurbishment to completely reimagine the classic attraction to have a mix of classic and modern horror properties. After a long wait, Universal has given us an update, and while we’re still waiting on some details, this new attraction title says a lot.
If EPCOT is your favorite Disney World park, pay close attention because we just stayed in one of the CLOSEST hotel rooms to the park, and we’re here to give you the FULL TOUR!
Disney’s BoardWalk Inn
Disney’s BoardWalk Inn is located just STEPS away from one of EPCOT’s entrances and gives you access to some of the rides other guests will have to take a trek to get to (hint: it’s one of the most popular rides in the park!). So, if you’re looking for convenience and are hoping to get as many attractions done as possible, STAY HERE! Come take a look at their rooms — they’re GORGEOUS!

Get ready for a PACKED Disney World this weekend!
Magic Kingdom
It’s a holiday weekend with Columbus Day falling on Monday, October 12th, which means the parks are about to get busy. Holiday weekends are normally much busier at each of the four parks already, but we didn’t think it was going to be “Lightning Lane Premier Passes sold out” busy!
If you’ve ever been to the Orlando International Airport, then you’ll know it’s the most magical airport on Earth! You’ll find the only Magic of Disney store in the world, stocked with Disney merch in a space that gives MAJOR Disney Store vibes. And in Terminal C, the Walt Disney World Store has even MORE Disney souvenirs! There are some days where we’ve wished we could spend the whole day at MCO, and now we can, even without a flight!
Orlando International Airport
Orlando International Airport just relaunched the Experience MCO Visitor Pass Program, which allows the non-traveling public to visit MCO and enjoy amenities on the post-security side of the passenger terminals. Let’s dive into these major changes at MCO!
Disney World is undergoing A LOT of changes right now, from new lands and hotels to refurbishing existing attractions and renovating guest rooms. Fans have certainly had their opinions on these changes — good and bad –, and some come even before the completion of these projects. This turns our attention to Disney’s Art of Animation Resort.
Disney’s Art of Animation Resort
Disney has announced that the resort will be renovating its rooms, and the uncertainty of what these rooms are going to look like has me, as well as other fans, holding our breath. Some fans are nervous that this latest hotel refurbishment may fall into the same “trap” as other recent similar projects. Namely, that Disney may take a heavily themed hotel environment and turn it into something generic.
Wait…did Dollywood just take an iconic Disney World souvenir and make it even BETTER?!
Dollywood
It’s no secret that we are massive Dollywood fans! After having been to the theme park a couple times, we haven’t been able to stop talking about it. Can you blame us? There is so much to love about the park! Speaking of, we need to tell you about a souvenir that Dollywood has that is just next level.
Disney just released 12 brand-new accessories, toys, and decor that are perfect for getting in the holiday spirit.

Wait…do you smell that? Peppermint…gingerbread…sugar cookie…is there a new holiday Starbucks menu on the way?

Starbucks has officially announced the holiday beverages that make the season so special, and when they’ll be available. However, it looks like fans are pretty torn on the new menu. Some are excited to dive into the holiday flavors, while others are asking for more!
