We’re SO excited for the ride. We’ve been getting updates on it for a while, with a look at the ride vehicles, news of filming for the ride, and even a look inside. Construction is moving along nicely, and we just got another update about an important part of the project!
Crowds are something you usually have to deal with when visiting Disney World.
Crowds in Magic Kingdom
We usually see the biggest around Spring Break, the summer, and the holidays. They contribute to long wait times for rides and food, and sometimes even merchandise! But, there are some times of the year that are less crowded than others. We usually think of right now (late January) as one of the least crowded times of the year in the parks, but that is definitely NOT the case today in Disney World!
Walt Disney World is currently celebrating its 50th anniversary!
It’s Disney World’s 50th Anniversary!
And, that means there has been a TON of merchandise for the occasion. We’ve seen Minnie ears, Starbucks tumblers, ornaments, fancy track suits, and so much more. Most of the items have either been online at shopDisney or actually in Disney World, but we found some more 50th anniversary items in a place you wouldn’t expect!
If there’s one Disney souvenir we can’t get enough of, it’s Mickey & Minnie ears!
How can we pick just one?!
There are just SO many options, and Disney continues to release more all the time. We’ve seen several pairs be released for Disney World’s 50th anniversary, new pairs for the holidays, and ears for specific characters. And today, 5 NEW pairs of ears dropped online on shopDisney!
Have you ever had a ride you were on in Disney World break down? Or did you notice something that was very off during the ride, like Donald Duck being replaced by a plant?
Remember Plant Donald?
Ride malfunctions happen in Disney World sometimes, and can either be funny things to laugh at or a unique evacuation experience. Many of us have been stopped on a ride for a few moments at some point, but there have been more extreme instances! And then, there are the rides that seem to regularly have issues. So, we’re taking a look at the most infamous Disney World ride malfunctions!
Hello from Walt Disney World!
EPCOT
Since the holidays are over, we thought that the crowds in Disney World were slowing down, but did that hold up this week with the holiday weekend and the opening of a festival at EPCOT? We like to keep up with how lines are looking in order to gauge how busy it is, so here’s a look at all the average wait times in Disney World from this week.
Cast Members are such an important part of the Disney Parks.
Cast Members are magic!
They can make extra magic for folks, create special experiences, and they often brighten our whole day! We love chatting with them, too, because they have some pretty fun facts about the parks. So, here is some of the BEST Disney trivia we’ve learned from Cast Members!
It’s no secret that Disney World can cost a pretty penny!
Cinderella Castle
And, it’s only getting MORE expensive it seems with HUNDREDS of price increases around the parks rolling out in early 2022, too. But, rest assured — you CAN do Disney World on a budget and still have a great time, you just gotta plan! So, we’re here to help and tell you the best budget-friendly lunches in Disney World!
Happy Lunar New Year, everyone!
