His family reported he was in “critical but stable” condition, and now there’s been an update on his injuries.
So, you’re planning a trip to Disney World, and you’ve narrowed it down between two of the most ICONIC Disney resorts in existence (you lucky, lucky person!).
Beach Club Resort
But how do you choose between Disney’s Contemporary Resort and Disney’s Beach Club Resorts? Well, let’s dive into the deets to see which one is right for you!

Disney World is known for its stellar entertainment, but one park is just a bit more magical than the rest.
Welcome to Magic Kingdom
We’re talking about Magic Kingdom, of course! From parades and cavalcades to stage shows and nighttime spectaculars, chances are there’s something to keep just about anyone entertained in the OG Disney World park. We don’t want you to miss a thing — so we’ve rounded up a FULL list of showtimes for parades, fireworks, castle shows, and more in Magic Kingdom.
If you’re heading to Disney Springs, you’ll be presented with a WEALTH of dessert options.
Sprinkles Cupcakes
You could pick up some giant cookies at Gideon’s Bakehouse or head over to Everglazed for some delicious doughnuts. But if you’re in the mood for a cupcake, you might want to hit up Sprinkles — especially because they have some special flavors in January!
Foods stuffed with other food, customizable treats, and toast big enough to feed TWO people?

Disney World has a TON of new (and classic) treats you’re SO NOT gonna want to miss out on in 2023.
You can never have too much Disney merchandise, right?
The entire Princess Dooney and Bourke collection!
You guys know we are passionate about all things Disney, and we have a hard time resisting new souvenirs. From the newest 100th Anniversary MagicBand+ to the 2023 Walt Disney World Marathon Weekend merchandise to the latest Minnie Ears we found online, we have certainly been shopping around. Today we found even more merchandise that excites us because this time it’s a new collection from a fan-favorite brand!
Right after the new year, crowds typically die down at Disney Parks (at least slightly) and Disney takes advantage of that to make changes and refurbish rides and other areas.
Christmas week crowds at Magic Kingdom
2023 will be no exception. While most Disney fans have their eye on the permanent closure of the classic (and controversial) log flume ride Splash Mountain at both Disney World and Disneyland, there are some temporary ride closures you also need to be aware of.
Did you know that January is Wellness Month?
Tree of Life
Last year we saw Disney celebrate with fitness and yoga classes, and this year, Joffrey’s has just made a special announcement about a discount happening the first week of the month in honor of the occasion.
Disney World is changing all the time, and a few MAJOR changes just happened at the most popular park!
Magic Kingdom
We recently spotted a couple of new snacks at Magic Kingdom, and the fan-favorite Walt Disney World Railroad just reopened as well. Couple that news with a TRON: Lightcycle Run construction update and a bunch of new souvenirs, and we’ve got a LOT to go over in this roundup of news from Magic Kingdom! [Read more…]
Disney vacations are expensive, and they’re not getting any cheaper.
Magic Kingdom
While you can plan your trip around the cheapest days to visit, there are still other factors that will affect how much your vacation will cost you, and this time it doesn’t have anything to do with Disney raising ticket prices.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
