food IS a theme park
Look, we say this with love because we are also very much in the splash zone here. Disney Adults get blamed for a lot. Some of it is unfair. Some of it is lazy internet complaining. Some of it is just people discovering that adults can like DOLE Whip, puppets, monorails, and $78 cardigans without needing a permission slip from society.

But also? Sometimes we do need to sit quietly with our novelty popcorn buckets and think about what we’ve done.
It has been all about Toy Story lately, and understandably so! Disney fans are heading to the movie theaters to see Toy Story 5, which just dropped on June 19th. On top of that, Disney has also released a fun way to celebrate the highly anticipated film with a new experience at Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Toy Story Land!
Head over to Hollywood Studios at Disney World, because some brand-new Toy Story 5-themed PhotoPass spots are now available to celebrate the movie! Run like the wind, because they’re only going to be at the park until July 31st.
Disney World had an annoying problem – if you wanted a crispy soda straight from the fountain, you’d have to go to a quick-service restaurant, often with long lines and no open tables. The popcorn carts and outdoor food stands didn’t have a soda machine for your soda fix – but that just massively changed!
Nothing beats a crispy Diet Coke and a walk in front of the castle!
When we heard that some popcorn carts and snack stands in Disney World started offering fountain drinks, we had to investigate. We learned that yes, the rumors are true, and yes, you can get a crispy fountain soda at select popcorn carts now! But then we wondered, which ones?
We don’t want to sound too dramatic, but things are not going very well at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge right now!
Wilderness Lodge
This is one of the most popular hotels at Disney World. It has a cabin-like feel to it, almost as if you’re on a camping retreat at the Most Magical Place on Earth. Although the resort is not feeling very magical right now.
An exclusive perk is returning to the Magic Kingdom this year for Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party!
Magic Kingdom
Don’t look now, but we’re less than two months from the start of Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. Disney confirmed that an exclusive FREE perk will be coming back for the special ticketed event this year, and if you’re a Disney Vacation Club member, you’re going to want to hear about it!
Don’t you just love a week filled with some crazy Disney news?!
Disney’s BoardWalk Inn
Ok, we get it, sometimes huge Disney announcements can be stressful. We might be getting something we’ve been wanting for a long time, or we could be hearing about something we don’t want to go. Well, these three announcements are all good news! If you didn’t hear, Disney’s BoardWalk Resort is going to look a lot different in the future, as the resort is getting some major updates.
Disney World truly is our happy place. There is so much to love about the theme parks, from the food to the rides to the shows and the Cast Members. While it is the place where we are the happiest, it can also be the place where we are the most frustrated at times.
The JISULIFE Fan
The heat and the crowds can be overwhelming, and if you don’t prepare, it can ruin your day or lead you to spending a ton of money you wouldn’t have spent otherwise. That’s why we like to prepare for the good AND the bad moments in Disney World. Luckily for us, this $14 essential is the perfect way to beat the heat in Orlando.
Cinderella Castle is one of the most iconic parts of Disney World. The second you reach the end of Main Street, U.S.A., you’ll see dozens of people pulling out their phones and grabbing a picture of the palace.
Cinderella Castle
But did you know that some people’s full-time job is to work on Cinderella Castle? Disney just released exclusive interviews with the creative team behind the repainting of Cinderella Castle, and these Cast Members are serious magic makers!

Disney World is taking this whole BIG CHANGES thing way too seriously. Not only are three of Disney World’s four parks getting new lands and expansions, but Disney Springs is getting new experiences and stores, and there’s even a brand new hotel, Lakeshore Lodge, in the works.
