Everyone Is Asking if TRON Is Better Than Guardians of the Galaxy in Disney World. Here’s a Better Question.

By 4 Comments

No two Disney World rides are created equally — a fact that most fans are very aware of. And with new attractions having recently opened and more on the horizon soon, there’s a lot more competition when it comes to which ride takes the top spot as the BEST.

TRON Lightcycle / Run

TRON: Lightcycle / Run recently opened in Magic Kingdom, and folks have been eager to ride. But, is TRON better than Disney World’s other new coaster, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind? Forget which ride is better, here’s what you really should be asking instead!

A List Of EVERY Disney PhotoPass Lens

By Leave a Comment

You could outgrow the souvenir toys and the T-shirts, but you’ll never outgrow a photograph of yourself and your loved ones in front of fan-favorite Disney attractions and park icons.

Cinderella Castle

This makes Disney’s PhotoPass service a fan-favorite route to get tons of souvenirs that last a lifetime: photos! PhotoPass photographers are stationed at TONS of locations throughout the Disney parks, ready to scan your MagicBand or ticket and snap a photo of you and your crew — which will then link to your Disney account. These photos are taken with professional cameras and the PhotoPass Cast Members are trained to pose you and your group so that everyone is in the frame and looking great. Sometimes, you’ll even be able to use special props! Photo packages are available that allow you to purchase single photos, certain photos per day, and even Memory Maker, which allows you to download ALL of the photos that are taken throughout your vacation.

What Will Come to the Castle for Christmas Now That the Disney World 50th Anniversary is Over?

By 2 Comments

Oh, the Cinderella Castle. It’s been covered in toilet paper, turned into a cake, and used to launch a tiny fairy as she flies through the air. There’s a reason this castle is THE Disney World icon — it’s been through a LOT (and looks good no matter what)!

Look at that glorious castle!

One of our personal favorite Cinderella Castle iterations is the seasonal Castle Dream Light makeover we see around the holidays. As the sun sets, the castle lights up with thousands of tiny, sparkly lights that look as if a light snowfall gently landed on it. It’s spectacular.

5 Big Reasons You Might See an EMPTY Disney World This Summer

By 21 Comments

Sometimes, it feels like it takes a Disney Ph.D. to figure out how to navigate the parks. What’s a Lightning Lane? Why does everything suddenly have a plus sign in front of it? Why on Earth is the line for Journey into Imagination with Figment over 5 minutes?

Helllooooo, crowds!

Oh, and on top of all those changes, you might also want to consider the crowd level during your vacation. Back in 2022, we saw some BIG crowds in the Disney World parks. The theme parks were reportedly in higher demand than ever before and attractions and restaurants were finally starting to operate like they did before the pandemic. Fast-forward to 2023, and things are looking a little different. Could the crowds finally be subsiding in Disney World? Let’s talk about it.

A Disney Springs Store Has Permanently CLOSED

By 10 Comments

Carousels, cars that can swim, and movie theaters — Disney Springs is much more than a place to go shopping! Some Disney fans may still refer to this place as Downtown Disney, though Disney Springs has changed a LOT since the days of Downtown Disney. Between all the new restaurants, snack spots, and shops, Disney Springs is constantly changing.

There’s even a movie theater here!

Recently, we saw one store close its doors while another spot celebrated its grand opening. There’s a lot to keep up with, and now another store has permanently closed in Disney Springs.
