food IS a theme park
This winter is shaping up to have several temporary ride closures at the Disneyland Resort. Already today we’ve shared the news that the Disneyland Monorail will close for at least a few weeks starting in late January, and The Little Mermaid: Ariel’s Undersea Adventure will close for a few days next week.

In addition to those two temporary closures, another ride at Disney California Adventure will be unavailable for nearly two weeks, starting in late January.
Every once in a while, the rides and attractions in the Disney parks may need to close temporarily in order to perform routine maintenance so they can continue to operate in tip-top shape for years to come! Sometimes the closures only last for a few days, but sometimes they can last for a few weeks or even a few months, as is the case right now with Expedition Everest at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

Luckily, Disney typically updates their site well enough in advance that guests can find out if a ride will be closed ahead of their upcoming vacation. And it looks like another ride will be closed temporarily at the Disneyland Resort next week.
We’re less than one week away from the start of a New Year! If you’re ringing in 2022 at Disneyland Resort, then you’re probably wondering what sort of festivities will take place on December 31st.
Disneyland
Let’s recap all of the current New Year’s Eve activities and events taking place this week at the Happiest Place on Earth.
Earlier this year, Disneyland shocked us all when they announced a project known as DisneylandForward. This announcement perhaps left us with more questions than answers, and since that time, there haven’t really been any updates!
Sleeping Beauty Castle
Today, we thought we’d check in with all things DisneylandForward, including a recap on what exactly this project is (and isn’t, at least not yet!), and where it currently stands.
Disney Genie launched in Disney World in October, and today it’s Disneyland’s turn!
Disneyland
We’ve been in the parks trying out both the free Genie and paid Genie+ and although all was well at first, we learned pretty quickly that things were going downhill. Check out what we’ve experienced so far today all before noon!
We got a sudden surprise earlier this week when the announcement was made that Disney Genie and Genie+ would launch in just two days at the Disneyland Resort! The complimentary planning tool, along with its paid counterpart that officially replaces FastPass+, was rolled out in Disney World back in October.
Hello, Genie!
Since then, we’ve learned all of the ins and outs of both of these new programs, including how to use the free version to its full potential and which rides you should book first! Let’s see what Disney Genie and Genie+ are like in Disneyland, what the major differences are, and any NEW tips we may have learned along the way!
The holiday season has officially arrived in Disneyland Resort which means that there is SO 👏 MUCH 👏 NEW 👏 FOOD 👏 TO 👏 TRY!
There’s nothing quite like a classic Mickey Santa Cookie on Main Street, U.S.A.
And, this year we aren’t messing around with your average milk and cookies, we’re trying everything from Peppermint Beignets, to GIANT Peppermint Milkshakes, to CHURRO Funnel Cakes, and more! But, with all the specialty snacks at Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure PLUS all of the eats and drinks for the Festival of Holidays, how can you possibly keep track of everything you’d like to try? We gotchu!
It’s holiday time in Disneyland Resort!
It’s the holidays in Disneyland Resort!
In addition to all the festive decor in the parks, Festival of Holidays has debuted in Disney California Adventure (DCA), and while you’re making your way around DCA and trying all the new holiday foods, you can stop and meet Santa Claus himself!
Christmas has ARRIVED in Disneyland!
Disney California Adventure
We’ve tried a LOT of holiday treats in Disney California Adventure over the past few days. Between Christmas celebrations and Disney Festival of Holidays, there are some pretty great holiday eats. Now, we’re sippin’ on some classic flavors, but how do they stand up?
A lot has been happening over at Disneyland lately.

Holiday decorations have gone up in the park, the new Merriest Nites holiday event has begun, Life Day snacks have arrived in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, and Festival of Holidays has begun. Today we found another brand NEW item — and this is one that Toy Story fans will want to see.
