food IS a theme park
It’s a beautiful day to take a stroll along Disney’s BoardWalk!

We were checking out the sitch in EPCOT today when we figured we’d hop on over to the EPCOT area resorts to see if there were any new sights!
Now that EPCOT in Walt Disney World has officially been reopened for about two weeks, things are settling back down to the new normal.

We spent the day scouring EPCOT to look for two of our favorite things: new food and new merchandise! [Read more…]
EPCOT’s Germany Pavilion has many wunderbar wonders, from Biergarten to caramel popcorn from Karamell-Küche to all of the tiny residents at the garden train display!

And if you love this area as much as we do, then the shirts and merch we spotted at EPCOT this week is PERFECT for you!
From tie-dyed everything to tees that are so unbelievably ’90s that we forgot we’re in the 21st century, Disney is REALLY leaning into the retro-inspired merch these days.
And Disney World’s run of bright colors and bold prints has no end in sight, except this time, we’re traveling back in time to the 1980s!
If you’re visiting Disney World during the summer months, there are a few extra must-haves to bring with you if you plan on staying DRY during your vacation! When it rains, it pours in Central Florida, and you probably don’t want to get caught in the rain without the proper gear.

But who says you have to sacrifice fashion in order to stay dry? We stopped by BouTiki today in Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort to scope out the latest goodies, and we discovered the PERFECT park must-have for the rainy season!
As Disney Parks worldwide continue their phased reopenings, policies have been updated to reflect current guidance from health experts. Recently, we shared the news that Disney World updated their face mask policy, which now bans face masks with “valves, mesh material, or holes of any kind.”

In an unsurprising move, Disneyland also updated their face mask policy to reflect this change, effective immediately.
Occasionally we find some SUPER cool new AR tech that catches our eye. Recently, we’ve found out how we might use the force in an AR environment and we’ve even seen Disney AR in practice with the Play Disney Parks app AR Mickey message!

Today, we spotted a way that Disney might use augmented reality to bring YOUR doodles to life!
When you go to Disney’s Hollywood Studios, getting a boarding pass for Rise of the Resistance can be a bit of a challenge. But when you DO get one, all that panic refreshing at 10AM or 2PM feels soooo worth it.

This massive Star Wars ride, however, is quite technologically advanced, which means that it breaks down and experiences little glitches from time to time.
Disney has been kickin’ it old school with tons of new retro gear lately!
Grad Nite Shirt
We spotted some totally rad tees and jackets on shopDisney and now they have arrived at Walt Disney World! We got a closer look at all the throwback merch at Legends of Hollywood at Disney’s Hollywood Studios today! [Read more…]
Last week, we shared the news that Disney World’s 2020 Wine and Dine Half Marathon Weekend would be a virtual event.
