Hello from another week in Disney World! 👋
Sadly, Disney won’t let us live here 🙁
Some things around Disney are starting to look more like how we remember them from before the parks closed. It’s not the first time we’ve seen changes made to some of Disney’s policies since the reopening. Little by little, things have started to go back to “normal.” Some restaurants and resorts have reopened, Park Hopping has returned, and some character dining has even come back. And recently, we spotted some BIG changes in Disney World that show even more things are returning to some semblance of pre-pandemic “normalcy.”
We’ve been closely following policy changes as COVID-19 vaccines continue to be distributed.
