food IS a theme park
Who’s ready to set sail?! 🛳️
Disney Cruise Line
It’s time to start planning your next Disney Cruise Line vacation, because some big updates were just released for Fall 2027 and Spring 2028. There are new itineraries and NEW ships on the horizon, and Disney Cruise Line is returning to New York City!
If you’re a fan of The Muppets, then this new backstage tour needs to go on your bucket list. But no, this new behind-the-scenes look isn’t at Disney — no theme park ticket required!

Jim Henson’s Creature Shop, the puppet workshop founded by the legendary creator of The Muppets, is now drawing back the curtain for backstage tours!
If you’ve ever managed to catch a Disney stage production on Broadway (or even on tour or seen Disney on Broadway at the EPCOT Festival of the Arts), you know it’s a real treat. Some of Disney’s most iconic movies have been made into Broadway plays, including Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, The Little Mermaid, and Aladdin.

However, audience members who saw Aladdin recently were in for an additional surprise. Stitch, doing what Stitch does best, crashed the show, and he did it for a good cause.
Alright, we’re calling all Disney Adults right now, because there’s something coming up next week that you CANNOT miss.
Disney Adults!
No, it’s not in Disney World OR Disneyland, believe it or not. In fact, you’ll want to head to the northeast for this event — New York City, to be exact. If you’ve been waiting for the opportunity to meet AJ Wolfe, the creator of DisneyFoodBlog, you’ll want to head to the book signing happening in NYC next week!
We’re SO close to the opening of Universal Orlando’s new theme park, Epic Universe, which is officially happening on May 22nd, 2025!
Epic Universe
Epic Universe brings five new themed lands as well as three new hotels to Universal Orlando, and to say the hype is real is a major understatement. We’ve had the chance to explore the new theme park and we can’t wait to go back again and again. And, if you can’t make it to Epic Universe to see the Chronos Tower anytime soon, you can always plan a trip to New York City instead!
We are in New York City to celebrate the christening of Disney Cruise Line’s newest cruise ship, the Disney Treasure!

We are bringing you full coverage of this brand-new ship, including a glimpse into the christening ceremony.
We often share news about our favorite restaurants in Disney World, and if you’ve been reading us for a while, you know that includes places like Homecomin’, Nomad Lounge, Wine Bar George, and several others.
Rainforest Cafe in Disney Springs
But you probably also know we have a few restaurants we’re NOT that fond of, and one in particular, has several locations in Disney World. Sure, it’s a “tourist trap” type place, but kids LOVE it, so maybe it makes sense that it’s coming to the top of the Empire State Building in New York. But still, this feels like such a weird flex.
There’s a lot that goes into planning a Disney World vacation. You have to figure out your budget, where you’re going to stay, how long you want to stay, what kind of park ticket to get, and more.
Orlando International Airport
You also have to figure out HOW you’re going to get to Disney World, and for many of us, the answer is by flying into Orlando International Airport. Well, we’ve got some good news on that front: two NEW flights are being added from two BIG cities to Orlando!
We go to Disney World every day, and yeah, we ride some pretty thrilling rides.
TRON Lightcycle / Run
NOOOOO…we’re not talking about “it’s a small world,” although some of y’all might call it a scary ride. But we’ve taken multiple rides on Tower of Terror, Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, and TRON Lightcycle / Run.
But, there’s an experience going on in New York City right now that we might just say “no,” to.
