food IS a theme park
Jambo everyone, and welcome to Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Animal Kingdom
Join us on a virtual walk around this park and see what new and exciting food, merchandise, and other finds we spotted during our most recent visit!
Although crowds might be growing in Disney World, we’ve seen some wildly different wait times all around the theme parks!
Cinderella Castle
There’s no FastPass or single rider during this time, and various ride queues have seen changes with distancing efforts, new sanitation measures, and more as guests return back to attractions. With such unprecedented efforts, the wait times have been fluctuating with variations between the posted wait time and how long riders have actually had to wait before boarding!
There is no shortage of places to grab a refreshing beverage at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
But one of our top spots is Dawa Bar, over in Harambe Village in the Africa section of the park!
Ready for a wild adventure?

Recently, we ventured over to Disney’s Animal Kingdom to see if we could find anything new and exciting, and sure enough we found some new merch, a delicious sounding specials menu at one of our favorite spots, and more! Come along with us to explore this beautiful park.
Jambo from a very sunny and VERY busy Disney’s Animal Kingdom today!

Since Disney World extended its hours in the park for Columbus Day Weekend, it looks like guests have taken the opportunity to head back to Animal Kingdom for a full day of fun (and food, obviously). As crowds have continued to pick up around the parks, we noticed that there was a surprise menu option at Animal Kingdom’s ice cream carts to accommodate the influx of guests!
Disney World has been switching up its hours quite a bit recently in all four parks as more crowds continue to head back to the parks.
Magic Kingdom
While hours in the parks had already been extended for Columbus Day Weekend previously, now guests have an extra hour to explore the attractions, stores, and restaurants when they return over the next two days!
Halloween may not be here yet, but we’re already stocking up on Christmas spirit jerseys and ornaments!
Mickey and Minnie Ornaments
Now, the only question we have is how late will the parks be open when we visit during Christmastime? Disney is starting to give us a better idea of that now.
GREETINGS from the DFB — and a few of our friends — in Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Animal Kingdom Character Flotilla
Our most recent visit may not have started easily (keep reading to learn more), but once we got inside the park to check out what’s new, it was time to find even MORE pumpkin goodies, new menu items, and oodles of merchandise… and we even took a SAFARI while we were at it! We hope you’ll join us on our latest trek around Animal Kingdom! [Read more…]

Over the past month, we’ve eaten our fair share of pumpkin goodies at Disney World. From the Pumpkin Tiramisu in Hollywood Studios to the Pumpkin Whoopie Pie at Disney’s Yacht and Beach Club Resorts, Disney World is currently a pumpkin lover’s paradise. And with new treats still arriving on the daily, like the Pumpkin Cheesecake at Creature Comforts, you’ll have a hard time running out of fall-themed items to enjoy!
Pumpkin Cheesecake
Today at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, we stumbled across yet ANOTHER pumpkin treat that we think would pair perfectly with a Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew first thing in the morning!
