food IS a theme park
So many restaurants have been reopening around Disney World recently!
Boma is back!
Buffets have returned, Magic Kingdom favorites like Casey’s Corner and Columbia Harbour House are back, and our favorite tiki bar also reopened not too long ago! And now, we have news about another dining spot reopening soon in Disney World!
Walt Disney World is a vast and overwhelming place, filled with hundreds (maybe even thousands) of hidden secrets!
There are so many interesting things to notice at Disney World!
We’re constantly noticing new Imagineering details in the parks or learning fun facts about our favorite attractions. Even after years of visiting the parks, there’s still so much to see! And today, we’re sharing with you some of the things that you may not know about Disney World, even if you’ve been dozens of times.
With Disney jumping quickly into the Halloween season, there are a lot of new things going on at Magic Kingdom.
It’s Fall in Magic Kingdom!
Right now, you can grab Halloween treats, experience After Hours BOO Bash if you’ve purchased your tickets, and more. We’re heading around the park to let you know what’s new in terms of food, construction updates, and merchandise!
Sometimes the rides in Disney World can be unpredictable.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Closed
It makes sense when rides close down for storms or scheduled maintenance, but it’s puzzling when rides go down and there’s no explanation! There are some rides this happens to more than others and a few of those rides are closed right now at Magic Kingdom!
Planning a trip to Disney World means also knowing what might not be open while you’re visiting.
Peoplemover Closed
We like to keep you updated on what we know will be closed during your trip, and let you know if a ride unexpectedly goes down while you’re there! And now, we have an update on a Magic Kingdom attraction that will be closing soon!
One of the locations that has remained closed since the reopening of Disney World in July 2020 is Columbia Harbour House.
Still waiting on this one to reopen!
It was actually being used to house part of the line for Peter Pan’s Flight! Some of the restaurant’s menu items have been available over at Tomorrowland Terrace, so we haven’t gone completely without a taste of Columbia Harbour House, but it still wasn’t the full experience! We found out recently that Columbia Harbour House would be back in action, and today we got to try it for the first time in over a year! [Read more…]

We have to admit that one of our favorite characters in Moana is Hei Hei (sorry, Maui!).
Hei Hei Cone
There’s just something lovable about this super unintelligent chicken that makes us smile. And we’ve loved seeing Hei Hei represented at Disney World — in a Dole Whip cone (yes, that is a thing that happened!), on a MagicBand, on shirts, and more!
When it comes to Disney World snacks, Magic Kingdom ranks high on our list of places to find a seemingly endless supply of unique goodies. But with six themed lands across the park, it’s easy to get carried away and get full before you even reach the end of Main Street!
