The $13 Socks Everyone Wears for 10-Hour Disney Days

By Leave a Comment

If you’re heading to any of the Disney parks soon, we hope you are mentally and physically prepared for the massive amount of walking you’re going to do. The days at the parks are long, and the miles add up quickly.

One of our favorite shoes

When you head to one of the Disney parks, be prepared to spend at least 10 hours each day exploring the lands, hitting the rides, and devouring all the snacks. These theme parks have A LOT to offer, and you’ll likely need a solid pair of shoes and a great pair of socks to get you through them. We’ve heard from a lot of people, and tried them ourselves — these $13 socks are the ones that will get you through the miles and hours of a Disney day.

This Disney World Park Will Be EMPTY in 2026

By 2 Comments

Disney is creating SO many new things for the theme parks at Disney World. From Villains Land to Monsters, Inc. Land to the Tropical Americas Land, there will be so many exciting new attractions, experiences, and restaurants in the next few years. To say we’re excited is an understatement!

Encanto is coming to Animal Kingdom!

Even though we have so much to look forward to, we have a pretty good feeling that one Disney World park is going to be EMPTY in 2026. We love this park so much, but we gotta be honest here. It’s not looking good for Animal Kingdom in the new year.

REVIEW: I Know Someone Will Love This Hot Dog at Magic Kingdom. It’s Just Not Me.

By 1 Comment

Casey’s Corner is a staple Magic Kingdom counter-service restaurant. It’s one of those places that you either love or you do your best to avoid. As for us, we love a good Casey’s Corner snack, especially with some plastic cheese!

Casey’s Corner

If you see us stopping by Casey’s Corner, you can probably assume we’re grabbing some corn dog nuggets and fries with a side of plastic cheese. However, we also enjoy trying the various other menu items here. Casey’s frequently offers seasonal items in addition to its staple menu. One item that is available year-round is the Chicago-style Hot Dog. Since it had been a while since we had the Chicago dog at Casey’s before, we decided it was time to give it a taste test!

REVIEW: Skip the Starbucks Line and Buy This Coffee in Disney World

By Leave a Comment

Starting our Disney World adventures off with a coffee drink is one of the best parts of our day. Imagine: you get to the park super early in the morning, in time to rope drop a few rides, then pop over to a Joffrey’s kiosk for a quick pick-me-up. YUM! 😋

Joffrey’s at Hollywood Studios

You’ll find Joffrey’s stands at several locations in each park, and they all offer different featured menu items, while also serving all the staples. This is one of the fun things about grabbing your coffee at Joffrey’s — you can try so many different specialty drinks! We recently stopped by the Pixar Plaza Joffrey’s stand in Hollywood Studios to try the tried-and-true Round ‘Em Up Frozen Cappuccino to see if it’s just as good as we remembered.

Why Disney Adults Keep Booking the WRONG Lightning Lanes

By 1 Comment

The Lightning Lane system at Disney World can be a bit confusing. Considering that the system has changed at least three times in the past 10 years, it can be challenging to know the ins and outs. Luckily, we’ve studied Lightning Lane over and over like our jobs depend on it (which they kinda do).

Rise of the Resistance Lightning Lane

If you’re planning a trip to Disney World or you’ve been there and you’ve found yourself questioning why things haven’t gone super smoothly, you might need some help grabbing the right Lightning Lanes. Booking the WRONG Lightning Lanes can affect your entire day in the park (think: extra walking, longer lines than expected, or not getting on the rides you really wanted). So next time, stop doing the following and swap them for the alternatives to be sure you get the RIGHT Lightning Lanes!

We’ve Got Some Bad News About the Magic Kingdom Ferry Right Now

By 3 Comments

Magic Kingdom is a fan-favorite theme park, especially during the holiday season. This iconic park is what many people immediately think of when they start planning their Disney World vacation. There’s the magnificent Cinderella Castle, Main St., U.S.A., and the classic Disney rides.

Magic Kingdom

One thing to consider when you’re planning your trip to Magic Kingdom is your transportation. Unfortunately, unlike the other Disney World parks, you can’t park your car right near the entrance. You either have to jump on the Monorail at one of the surrounding hotels, take a bus from the other hotels, or park at the Transportation and Ticket Center (TTC), where you’ll then either take the Ferryboats or the Monorail. If you’re planning to park at the TTC on your way to Magic Kingdom in the coming months, we have some bad news about the Ferry you’ll want to think about before hopping on the boat.

REVIEW: Why You Need To Try This CUSTOMIZABLE Snack in EPCOT

By 1 Comment

One of our favorite things about visiting EPCOT is all the FOOD. There are snacks galore, fantastic restaurants, and tasty multicultural treats. You can practically try something new every time you go to the park, and that’s exactly what we try to do.

Snacking around World Showcase is lots of fun!

As you wander around World Showcase, you can stop and try fun international snacks from each of the 11 countries. Many of the items don’t change at the permanent venues, or they’ll offer signature menu items with additional seasonal offerings. As we were visiting the Japan pavilion the other day, we realized it had been a while since we had tried the Kakigori at the Kabuki Café. This is a fun, traditional Japanese shaved ice treat with lots of options, and we want to let you in on the secrets of this sweet and refreshing treat!

REVIEW: A Disney World Restaurant Just WOWED Us With…TOFU?!!

By Leave a Comment

We have quickly become big fans of the new Wailulu Bar & Grill at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort — Island Tower. Not only did the gorgeous views, airy atmosphere, and beautiful artwork sell us, but the food here is great.

Wailulu Bar & Grill

We tried this restaurant right when it opened, and we keep coming back to it. Soon, you’ll be able to make reservations here, but for now, we simply stopped by again because we had to try another dish that we think will be super popular (at least, it should be)! This entree and drink combo will have you scraping the bottom of your bowl and ordering another round. So let’s dive in, shall we?!

By 3 Comments

Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party is once again happening at Magic Kingdom! We have been there (twice this year) to see, do, eat, and drink EVERYTHING at the holiday event, because we love it that much and want to bring you the best coverage possible.

Mickey and Minnie in Mickey’s Most Merriest Celebration

We go to this Christmas party every year, and every year we adore it. It’s a very special experience that makes the holiday season even merrier. However, we do have to admit that this year, we noticed a slightly unfortunate side effect of going to this party, and we had to warn you!
