The Disney Treasure is almost ready for its maiden voyage, and we got to check out everything new on the latest addition to the Disney Cruise Line’s fleet, including the HIGHLY-ANTICIPATED new lounge themed to Disney’s ICONIC Haunted Mansion.
Whether you’re a Broadway fan, a movie buff, or have seen the viral marketing for it — you probably know all about the Wicked movie releasing on November 22nd.

Well, Universal Studios is getting in on the festivities by featuring all sorts of Wicked offerings around the parks — including a brand-new Wicked: The Experience! We got the chance to check it out before it officially opens and are bringing you along for a sneak peek!
What if we told you that there was a way to get stellar Disney entertainment — we’re talking lights, sounds, music, and more — without having to travel all the way to Disney World to do it?!

Well, friends, you’re in luck because such a thing exists — and it’s called Disney On Ice! These exciting and lively shows combine your favorite Disney characters, stories, and songs with incredible ice skating and dancing, acrobatics, and more. We recently got the chance to see the brand-new show, Disney On Ice presents Let’s Dance and get a backstage look at just how the magic is made — so let’s check it out!
While much of the focus on the Universal Orlando Resort is currently on Epic Universe, a NEW land is opening at Universal Studios Florida.
DreamWorks Land
Based on the films of Dreamworks Animation Studios, this new land occupies the space formerly occupied by Woody Woodpecker’s KidZone. We’ve already had a chance to check out this new land, but now we’re exploring even more and bringing you with us!
This might be the BEST DAY EVER!

We are FINALLY getting to visit The Snuggly Duckling! Our dreams have finally come true. Disney has brought the little restaurant with our favorite ruffians and thugs to life at Fantasy Springs in Tokyo Disney. Fantasy Springs officially opens on June 6th, but we got to drop in to sing about our dreams a little early, and boy are we glad we did! Let’s take a look!
We are so excited to bring you some NEW food news!

Brand new restaurants are coming soon to a Disney park, so you know we jumped at the chance to give it a try! Tokyo DisneySea will soon be opening Fantasy Springs, a new sea port that will include three new lands. The new port will open on June 6th this year, but Disney invited us to experience it all BEFORE it opened. Of course, we couldn’t turn down the opportunity to try the new restaurant coming to Frozen Kingdom — the Royal Banquet of Arendelle!
Disney’s NEWEST cruise destination is opening to passengers SOON!

We have loved getting a sneak peek at the new Lookout Cay at Lighthouse Point, and right now we’re sharing a FIRST LOOK at the merchandise you can find on the island!
Okay, everyone stay calm, but we’ve been getting more and more clues EVERY day that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom could get an opening date VERY soon.
Almost there!
Not only did we recently see some Imagineers actually ride-testing Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, but Disney has been dropping more details about the characters and animatronics we’ll be seeing on the ride. However, we think we just got a HUGE clue that we’ll be getting an opening date for the ride ANY DAY NOW.
The biggest Disney fan event of the year is coming up very soon!

This event used to be called the D23 Expo, but this year it has a brand new name is now the “D23 The Ultimate Disney Fan Event.” We got to attend a media preview for this new massive event, and we’ve got some things to tell you about what it’s like this year, as well as how it’s different from previous D23 Expo events we’ve been to. So let’s go!
What do you do if you have a medical emergency on a Disney World vacation?
Magic Kingdom
This is a question we’ve been asked a lot over the years, and the answer varies greatly depending on the problem. Some issues can be handled at First Aid in the Disney World parks, while others may require a visit to a nearby Urgent Care center. In some unfortunate circumstances, a visit to the emergency room may be warranted. Our hope is that you never come across such an issue, but if you’re curious to know what the ER near Disney World looks like — today we’re taking you on a tour.
