food IS a theme park

Former Disney CEO Bob Chapek is about to publish a new memoir, in which he blames recently retired CEO Bob Iger for his firing.

Back in 2022, Bob Chapek was fired as Disney’s chief executive after less than three years in the job. Bob Iger, who preceded Bob Chapek as CEO, then came back as the company’s chief executive after Chapek was fired. A lot happened during Chapek’s time as CEO, some of which was beyond his control, like COVID-19, while other missteps were in his control. However, there’s one thing he points his finger at.
If you’re planning a Disney World trip, you’re probably thinking a LOT about your hotel, from the room size and transportation to dining and pools. If you only choose your resort for the pool, then Disney’s newest hotel will be your new favorite place to stay.

Disney’s Lakeshore Lodge boasts so many pools themed after some iconic Disney movies. While the resort won’t open until July 1st, 2027, we just got a close-up look at the pools under construction!
We should be enjoying the spooky season, but it’s hard when Disney keeps getting us excited for the holidays! We can just imagine strolling down Main Street, U.S.A. with a festive treat in hand, taking in all the sights, sounds, and smells that the holidays at Disney Parks have to offer.

We love visiting the Disney Parks during the holiday season because of all the Christmas cookies, the holiday music, and special meets with Santa Claus. We’ve been putting together our Christmas plans lately, and now it’s time to get those calendars out once again, because meal dates at the Disneyland Resort and info have officially dropped.
It always happens around this time of the year. Disney starts raising prices on just about everything, including Disney World and Disneyland park tickets, Disney World Annual Passes, Disneyland Magic Key Passes, food, drinks, and more. We usually know to expect price increases with the parks around the beginning of October.

Well, ahead of all those price increases this year, Disney is also raising prices for its streaming services, so if you’re subscribed to Disney+ or any of its bundles, it’s about to get pricier, according to Deadline.
By the time you’re done hearing about this Disney World treat, you’re going to be out of your house, buckled up in your car, and on your way to EPCOT!
What is this glorious treat?!
We traveled all the way to France to try a brand-new treat…ok, the France Pavilion in EPCOT, but we might as well have been in actual France the way that this tasted. Secretly, we want to have all of these to ourselves, but we’re going to be strong and not gatekeep so you can try this!
Summer is starting to wind down, and temperatures are starting to get cooler, which means you’ll soon be buying sweatshirts to stay warm! And what better sweatshirt than a Disney sweatshirt!
