food IS a theme park
Have you been to Disney World’s glitziest park lately?
Hollywood Studios
We’ve certainly enjoyed the few visits we’ve made to Disney’s Hollywood Studios recently. Now, we’re bringing you all of the latest updates in food, construction, and more!
Guys, it’s been a RAINY day in Disney World.
Hello, rain!
We’ve experienced our fair share of stormy Disney days, and we don’t let the weather stop our trips to the parks. But boy can the rain be brutal! Now, you may know that at 1PM, practically everyone in Disney’s Hollywood Studios pauses what they’re doing to try and get a Rise of the Resistance boarding group. Combine that with the rain? You’ll get some MAJOR crowding, as we saw today.
Good news if you’re lookin’ for a quick cooldown in Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Toy Story Land’s Slinky Dog Dash
Disney World’s current limited operations mean that certain spots around the parks remain closed, whether that’s a restaurant, ride, or even a hotel. We are starting to see some reopenings, though, and we’re keeping you posted as those happen! And as we were walking through Toy Story Land, we noticed that something else had opened up shop again.
On any typical day in Disney World you may run into a number of Disney celebrities. We’re talking about those Disney ducks, the Disney princesses and other characters, and maybe even a Cast Member who has reached celebrity status for you and your family.
You Never Know Who You’ll Spot in Disney World!
But, sometimes you’ll also spot Hollywood celebrities too. Not too long ago, Tom Brady and Rob Gronkowski both made their way to Disney World. But, today we spotted someone else. As we were making our way around Disney’s Hollywood Studios today we spotted a celebrity who could give Minnie Mouse a run for her money when it comes to GIANT bows!
You know us — we love our Disney World snacks, and we LOVE our Disney World cookies! That is probably why we found ourselves standing in 3+ hour long lines to get the latest cookie flavor at Gideon’s Bakehouse (don’t judge us!).
Orange Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookie
But we’ve certainly got our favorites all over Disney World, and we’re going to share those with you today, so you can have the most ULTIMATE cookie crawl ever! So put on your stretchy pants and comfy shoes because we’re wandering all over Disney World eating cookies!
Ever wanted to build your own lightsaber?
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
Well, at Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, you can! Savi’s Workshop helps you construct a customized lightsaber, and it’s a super engaging experience. But if you’re planning a visit to this scrapyard, there’s an update you should know about.
Hurray for Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Cameras are rolling!
Yes, we are BACK with the latest and greatest from the park that combines Star Wars, Toy Story, and the golden age of Hollywood. And we’ve only got a few updates since the last time we were there, so let’s get on with it!
We’ve seen some pretty cool new Disney tech lately.
Facial recognition!
And recently, we’ve seen a lot of that tech go hands-free! Guests can use the new MagicMobile service on their phones instead of MagicBands, and they can enter Magic Kingdom using facial recognition instead of tapping a park ticket (wild right?!). But while browsing the gift shops in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, we spotted a sign that a new kind of technology might be on the way.
One of the many things we love about Disney World is that everything is somehow just more magical there.
Hollywood Tower Hotel
And it’s not just the beautiful castle (which is getting glammed up at the moment), or even the Cast Members who do what they can to please guests. It’s also things like spotting some cute ducks, seeing baby animals, and noticing details we hadn’t ever seen before!
Thinking of visit Disney World this summer?
Disney World
Well, if you’re thinking of heading to the parks specifically in June, NOW is the time to book those Park Passes (if you haven’t already)! Previously, Park Passes for June had already started to fill up, but now things are looking different.
