That was my best Anna impression, because for the first time in forever, Disney just shared behind-the-scenes footage of what’s coming to the Kingdom of Arendelle at Disneyland Paris!
Your Disney World vacation is about to look a lot different than yesterday!
Cinderella Castle
It was confirmed back in the summer of 2025 that the Cinderella Castle would undergo a makeover — going back to its original blue and grey color scheme. Disney followed up on that announcement a few months later, stating that the repainting would begin on January 28th. Crazy enough, the time is officially here, which means THREE big changes have begun at Magic Kingdom!
Over the decades, the amount of pre-planning that goes into a Disney World trip has increased substantially. Between special events, fluctuating ticket prices based on date, Lightning Lanes, dining reservations, etc., it has become common for guests to lock their trip in months — or even a year — in advance. What about planning further ahead, though? How about by OVER 20 years?

What’s a trip to the Disney World theme parks without grabbing a snack? While we were in Disney’s Animal Kingdom this morning, we made a stop by Tamu Tamu Refreshments to grab a Pistachio Croissant.
Pistachio Croissant
This treat piqued our interest, as it replaced the Pistachio Honey Croissant that was previously available here. Now, a Pistachio Croissant and a Pistachio Honey Croissant sound pretty similar, but we will never say no to a chance for a Disney treat! Did this treat just get a name change, or did it also get some changes?
