food IS a theme park
Could a popular ride be temporarily closing at Disney’s Hollywood Studios soon?
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
We recently saw that Walt Disney World filed a construction permit for Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway at Hollywood Studios, and it looks like maintenance work could be coming. Let’s talk about what we know so far!
Heading to Disney’s Hollywood Studios and hoping to be an early bird? We’ve got you covered!
Slinky Dog Dash at Disney’s Hollywood Studios
This park is filled with SO MANY popular attractions, and it’s going to be a bit of a challenge to get them all done in one day (particularly if you don’t use Lightning Lanes). But if you can stomach an early morning in the park, you’ll set yourself up for success. We’re telling you where to go at rope drop…with maps!
Even the Happiest Place on Earth has rules you have to follow!
Pixar Pier at Disney California Adventure
No running in the parks, no selfie sticks, no illicit substances, and more. These rules are designed to keep everyone safe throughout the parks and to make sure everyone has a good time, too, of course! On a recent visit to the parks, we spotted some new (or newly enforced) rules at Disneyland Resort that you need to know about.

Disney World uses paint in some really unique ways!
Using paint to conceal the Cosmic Rewind building
From varying the color of sidewalks and curbs so that people don’t trip walking down Main Street, U.S.A. to painting utility boxes and light posts in “go away green” so that they’re less noticeable, Disney has been known to use colors to subtly affect your in-park experience. But we don’t have to be that subtle in our homes! And if you want to paint your home just like Disney World, we’ve got great news.

It’s been a long time coming, friends, but we finally have our answer.
Hollywood Studios
There are a decent amount of rides in Disney’s Hollywood Studios (not as many as Magic Kingdom, and more than Animal Kingdom), and we’ve been seeing them battle it out on our Instagram to see which ride would win the title of being the best.
