These EPCOT International Gateway Hacks Are Getting Out of Control

By 3 Comments

In recent years, the EPCOT International Gateway entrance has experienced a surge in usage, thanks to the introduction of the Skyliner, which has led many to discover and take advantage of this secondary entrance located near the World Showcase’s France Pavilion.

International Gateway Friendship Boat

I’ve been visiting EPCOT for 30 years, and for the vast majority of that time, the International Gateway between the France and United Kingdom pavilions in World Showcase has been available to EPCOT guests. First opened in the early 1990s, the secondary entrance was initially meant for guests staying in the EPCOT Resort Area (Yacht & Beach Clubs, Swan & Dolphin, and later the Boardwalk) as well as the then MGM-Studios theme park, each of which is linked to the Gateway via walking paths and Friendship boats.

Disney Brought a Mickey Cinnamon Roll to EPCOT, but Here’s Why You Shouldn’t Get It

By Leave a Comment

Oh, Disney World snacks. You’re so enticing and leave us struggling with an impossible decision: do we try something new on our next visit, or stick to our tried-and-true favorites every trip (and when I’m NOT there, I crave everything I see online).

Halloween Mickey Cinnamon Roll

Some of the most classic snacks out there are the Mickey-shaped snacks, and we’re suckers for them just like everyone else. However, there’s a special place in our hearts for those iconic Mickey Cinnamon Rolls, and they just hit the menus in ANOTHER spot in EPCOT…but believe it or not, we don’t recommend buying this treat.
