food IS a theme park
We took a trip to EPCOT to see what’s happenin’ around the park!
EPCOT
We’re back to check out all the new additions since our last visit to the park! Here are all of the food, merchandise, and construction updates we spotted in EPCOT!
EPCOT is undergoing quite the transformation at the moment.
Remy’s Ratatoutille Adventure Sign
From new rides to new pylons, we’re really looking forward to seeing all of the new experiences that will eventually be available at EPCOT. Just yesterday, we flew past EPCOT in the Disney Skyliner and got a peek at the construction going on in the France pavilion.
It’s been a busy week at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom!
Magic Kingdom
We spotted more construction work, Halloween decorations, returning snacks, and Disney merch FOR DAYS! Let’s take a look at everything new in the Magic Kingdom!
2020 will go down in history as the year leggings officially became PANTS!
Disney Springs
And if your stretchy pants are getting a little too stretched out, it might be time to buy some new ones! Luckily, we know just the spot! Follow us over to Disney Springs where the brand new athletic apparel store, lululemon, has just opened!
Walt Disney World is working on quite a few construction projects lately!
Elephant on Kilimanjaro Safaris
We’ve been keeping an eye on the progress of TRON Lightcycle Power Run in the Magic Kingdom and making frequent Disney Skyliner rides to see how Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure is doing. We popped into Disney’s Animal Kingdom to see if we could find anything new since our last visit. We spotted something very interesting while taking a bumpy ride on Kilimanjaro Safaris!
Just about everybody and their Uncle is obsessed with EPCOT’s new pylons right now!

In case you’ve slept on the EPCOT news the week, three clear acrylic pylons were recently installed in front of Spaceship Earth as part of a new entryway fountain for World Celebration — one of three new distinct neighborhoods Future World is being divvied up into.
There’s a whole lot of activity happening at Disney Springs! Since its phased reopening began back in May, we’ve followed the progress on the new Shine Bar & Social at Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin, as well as the construction happening on the new Gideon’s Bakehouse!

We’re also closely monitoring the progress on the upcoming M&M’s Store, which is slated to open this year!
Over the past several months, we’ve been keeping our eye on the work being done to connect Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa with Magic Kingdom via a new walkway and pedestrian bridge!

We hopped on the Monorail today to look at the progress, and it looks like it’s getting closer and closer to being complete!
It’s getting harder and HARDER to contain our pure cookie joy over the new Gideon’s Bakehouse that’s coming soon to Disney Springs!

We’ve been pretty amped up about the new location which will offer timed cookie drops, giant cake slices, and an explosion of artist collabs when it opens — like these handmade Gideon’s mugs they’re selling at their Orlando shop right now!
The EPCOT Transformation seems to be hitting its stride now that the park has been reopened for a while.

Earlier today, we stopped by the front of EPCOT’s to check out the new pylons that have just been installed for World Celebration’s reimagined fountain. But that’s not all the progress that has been made.
