food IS a theme park
Recently, Disney has announced new lands, attractions, and entertainment headed to the theme parks, new ships coming to the Disney Cruise Line, and so much more.
Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster construction
We’ve been keeping up with all the latest changes happening around Disney World, and over at Hollywood Studios, that means keeping an eye on the Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster transformation. Even though this ride only closed about a week ago, Disney has wasted no time in getting the retheme started.

If you’re walking through Disney Springs and happen to catch a whiff of delicious baked goods and spot a line longer than one for Peter Pan at Magic Kingdom, chances are you’ve found Gideon’s Bakehouse!

Airport security lines are getting longer and longer due to the partial government shutdown of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) — with no signs of relief anytime soon, according to CNN.
TSA PreCheck at MCO
The department, which is responsible for overseeing the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) at airports, posted photos of long lines at security checkpoints on social media, ultimately blaming Democrats for the situation. Homeland Security funding lapsed in mid-February due to a standoff between Republicans and Democrats over federal immigration reform.

Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
One of the major projects going on in Magic Kingdom is the lengthy refurbishment of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. This iconic ride is getting a bit of a refresh in the form of a new track, in what Disney is calling a “mountain-top to cavern-deep refurbishment.” Needless to say, there’s a LOT of work being done here. Originally, Disney shared that the ride would reopen sometime this spring, but a new permit amendment has us thinking the refurbishment might be taking longer than originally anticipated.
