food IS a theme park
It’s only August, but we’re already getting ready for 2021.
2021 Calendar
Recently, we found a 2021 calendar in EPCOT, and now we’ve found a NEW 2021 calendar in Magic Kingdom! If you’re a fan of Disney Parks posters, you’ll definitely want to check this one out!
Things are looking a little bit different today in Animal Kingdom’s DinoLand U.S.A. We paid a visit to this section which hosts the park’s very own wacky and whimsical street carnival… and just so happens to be home to Primeval Whirl.
Primeval Whirl
The attraction had only been operating seasonally for some time. However, it was recently revealed that Primeval Whirl is one of three attractions permanently closing in Walt Disney World. [Read more…]
Lots of folks know that Disney+ has been the go-to streaming service for all things Disney movies! From animated classics to franchises like Marvel and Star Wars, it seems like there is something on Disney+ for almost every movie fan.

But the service ALSO has tons of content for Disney Parks fans! The Imagineering Story and One Day at Disney are just a couple of options you can stream to get that rare behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to dream, build, and maintain the parks day in and day out.
Greetings from Pandora: The World of Avatar inside Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Pandora
We’ve been enjoying lots of Cheeseburger Pods (which have recently reappeared on the adult’s menu at Satu’li Canteen) and lots of trips on Flight of Passage now that the wait time is so low! We thought it might have just been a fluke when the park reopened, but a five-minute wait for Flight of Passage is still very common these days!
Beating the heat is a full-time occupation at the Disney parks when you’re a theme park reporter!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
Even though the animals don’t seem to mind these scorching hot temperatures very much, we were searching for ways to stay cool on our safari through Disney World today!
During our trip to Disney’s Animal Kingdom today, we couldn’t help but notice that the Isle of Java was closed.
Isle of Java
Isle of Java, in case you’re not familiar, is one of the spots on Discovery Island where you can grab a pick-me-up cup of coffee or pastry. It also just so happens to be home to the Tiger Tail Chocolate Twist. If you’re hoping to grab a Tiger Tail on your next trip to Animal Kingdom, though, all hope is not lost… [Read more…]
Now that all four Disney World theme parks are open this weekend for the first time since the closures, you might be wondering if guests are complying with Disney World’s mandatory face mask rule.
Magic Kingdom
We’ve been very concerned with making sure our own masks have been nice and snug since the parks reopened — even doubling up our masks when entering more enclosed queue areas, the monorail, or indoor rides. But we’re getting lots of questions from readers about how the whole mask compliance thing is progressing — and how Disney World’s staff is addressing the issue when folks AREN’T following the rules!
All four Disney World theme parks have finally reopened after their longest closure in history.
Magic Kingdom
We’ve spent the better part of the last two weeks exploring the parks to show you all the changes that have been implemented while guests were away. From seas of social distancing markers to newly installed plexiglass barriers and temperature screening checkpoints, there’s certainly been a lot of new ground-breaking procedures to cover!
Can you believe all four Disney World theme parks are finally open for the first time in many months?
Tree of Life
It’s been a totally surreal experience being back at Disney World, but we’ve been on a mission to see how Disney is addressing the health and safety concerns of every guest and Cast Member inside the newly reopened parks.
There is so much to do and see at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Pandora — The World of AVATAR, it can almost be overwhelming. Everything is just gorgeous there!
Pandora Crowds
But we got to the Windtraders gift shop, all the new merchandise we saw made us stop in our tracks!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
