food IS a theme park
Disneyland may be closed but we can still stop by Downtown Disney!
Disneyland
We strolled on into Disneyland’s shopping and dining district today to check out the latest updates in food, construction, and merchandise. Let’s dive in!
Spring is RIGHT around the corner, and a new season means one thing. — No, not warmer weather or Easter — it means there are new SEASONAL menu items!
Chick cake pop!
Walt Disney World isn’t the only place with new food and drinks for spring, Starbucks is getting in on the action too! [Read more…]
There are LOTS of souvenirs to choose from in Disney World.
Mickey Balloons
One of the souvenirs you can’t miss as you walk around the parks (except Disney’s Animal Kingdom, where they aren’t sold) are those Mickey-shaped balloons! They’re so cute and popular they even made Mickey ears shaped like the balloons. Lately, we’ve seen a few new Mickey balloon colors released. And today we spotted ANOTHER new balloon you might want to grab the next time you’re in the parks.
We’ve got a brand-new float to try in Disney World!
Fife and Drum
EPCOT may be busy gearing up for its 2021 Flower and Garden Festival — which starts TOMORROW, by the way! — but there’s still other treats to try around the park. And at Fife & Drum Tavern, we spotted the new Half Note Float!
We have important news about the United States’ vaccine timeline.
Disney World
Lately, we’ve received information about when elementary school kids could receive the COVID-19 vaccine as it continues to roll out to adults across the country. Previously, vaccination for those adults was estimated to continue into summer 2021. Now, the timeline has changed.
Why don’t you join us while we POP into Disney’s Hollywood Studios? We’re making a stop at one of the Hot and Fresh Popcorn kiosks. You’ll find a few right in the area in front of Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway…
Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway
We’re always on the lookout for new Refillable Popcorn Buckets at these little stands, but it’s pretty rare to spot a new snack among the usual options of popcorn, Mickey Pretzels, and cold drinks. So we were surprised to notice a sign for the new Springtime Popcorn! [Read more…]
Things are constantly changing at Disney World.
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
Lately, we’ve seen quite a few changes come to one of the easiest FREE souvenirs to get in Disney World — park maps! Just a few days ago, we spotted a new park map at EPCOT, and now we found a new map at Disney’s Hollywood Studios! [Read more…]
You’d be hard-pressed to find a Disney food and wine event that we’d turn down.
Disney’s Swan and Dolphin Resort
And no, we’re not talking about the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival, either. We’re actually talking about a nearby event at The Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin! These hotels hosted several specialty food and beverage events recently and we were invited to stop by to review one!
We love seeing Disney World from a new perspective.
Test Track
And while we were in EPCOT today visiting the latest Flower and Garden Festival topiaries and checking out the just-released food booth prices, we noticed that Test Track was down for weather! It was raining pretty hard in the park, so this closing is pretty standard. But we were lucky enough to get a peek INSIDE the ride while the attraction waited for the storm to clear.
