food IS a theme park
It’s an exciting day at Disney World!
TRON: Lightcycle / Run
Today was the official opening of the highly anticipated ride in Magic Kingdom — TRON: Lightcycle / Run. With the ride’s official opening, a NEW merchandise shop is open, too! Let’s check it out.
Whether you’re in Disney Springs or chilling on your couch this April, Sprinkles Cupcakes could be the perfect way to indulge.
How about some cupcakes?
Not only can you visit their Disney Springs location and Cupcake ATM at Disney World, but you can also have cupcakes delivered right to your front door. If you won’t be in Disney World this April, trust us when we say these flavors might have you tempted to just get them shipped to your house. They sound THAT enticing.
Happy Tron Day! It’s April 4th, which means that TRON: Lightcycle / Run is officially open in Disney World. That factor combined with spring break season, the Flower and Garden festival, and the Easter Holiday has some pretty intense crowds at Disney World.

This was reflected in the Genie+ prices, as today we saw the skip-the-line service hit a record-breaking price of $35 per person. Not only did Genie+ break the price record for the highest price we’ve ever seen, but it broke another record as well.
It’s safe to say that the travel plans of many were hindered this past December when Southwest Airlines canceled a ton of domestic flights due to a winter storm. These cancelations resulted in thousands of angry travelers, warranting refunds and even a senate hearing.

These cancelations left many passengers, flight attendants, and pilots stranded in airports with no way of traveling home. Southwest has worked to make things right after the incident, and now they’ve revealed even more information about how they plan to move forward and prevent future problems.
It’s finally April, which means the 50th Anniversary Celebration at Walt Disney World has officially come to an end.
Goodbye to the 50th!
We’ve seen the finales of nighttime spectaculars, the removal of park decor and character costumes, and even new park maps! Now, we’re seeing more merchandise pop up in the parks for the Disney100 Celebration at Disney World, and we can’t wait to see what else will show up for the platinum celebration.
Alright, who’s up for a trip to Andy’s back yard?
Roundup Rodeo BBQ
In case you haven’t heard by now, Roundup Rodeo BBQ in Disney’s Hollywood Studios is now open — and transporting guests to a backyard barbecue with the Toy Story gang. We went and tried everything on the menu, and it definitely didn’t disappoint, but we did learn one super important thing about the menu that shocked us.
Man, Disney makes it super hard for us to hold on to some extra cash sometimes.
Give us all the ears!
Lately, we’ve seen tons of new merchandise pop up in the parks and online, and today, we found some new ears on shopDisney that you might just have to snag for your next trip to the parks!
When planning a trip to Disney World, the biggest thing people focus on is the flight to Orlando. But… what comes after? With the removal of Magical Express, a Disney shuttle that took you from the Orlando Airport (MCO) to Disney World for free — if you were staying at a Disney hotel, visitors can sometimes be iffy on the best way to get to Disney World once they’ve arrived in Orlando.

There are several options you can use to get to Disney World from the airport, but not all of them are the most cost-efficient. This post will cover all the transportation options you have, as well as our recommendations if you’re traveling on a budget.
It’s officially the end of March, which means Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration is ending.

After 18 months, the celebration will end on March 31st, 2023, bringing in the new Disney100 Celebration to EPCOT. We’ve already seen some snack and merchandise changes, and we’ve noticed a BIG change on the shopDisney website.
We love to drop in to Disney’s Hollywood Studios and see what’s happening in the park. (If you’re a fan of the Tower of Terror ride, you’ll appreciate that fantastic pun 😂.)
Tower of Terror!
Recently, we’ve checked out some of the special characters that Hollywood Studios has and dined at the NEW Rodeo Roundup BBQ restaurant! Since we’re in the Disney World parks every day, we’ve got a pretty good grasp of what’s new in each one. Today we found something interesting at the Tower of Terror ride.
