food IS a theme park
Let’s play a game called “What’s in my Disney World luggage that isn’t a churro?”
We love our Loungeflys!
Hint: It’s not cute, it’s not sparkly, and it does absolutely nothing for your outfit. But it will save your sanity, your screen time, and possibly your relationship with the person who keeps stealing the only open outlet to plug in their portable neck fan.
Just when you think you know Disney World…
Magic Kingdom
I swear my itinerary changes at least 20 times before I actually go on a trip because Disney World is constantly changing things. Whether that be a new ride closure, or a dining reservation update that threw a wrench in the plan, you’ve gotta stay flexible when planning. That’s why we keep you informed about every single change! This is the December edition, so let’s see what will be different for your holiday trip.
The Disney World Monorail may be one of the most beloved forms of transportation at the resort. However, sometimes things do go wrong. We’ve seen issues where the Monorail has temporarily closed, and well, these things happen.

However, this morning, a fire was reported on the Disney World monorail by @CHRIS_MAGIC_DCL, although by the time it was reported, it seems the fire has been put out.
You might not realize it, but there’s way more to Disney Springs than just eating and shopping (although, the eating and shopping there is SO good, right?). Disney Springs also often has some of the best entertainment you can find in Disney World with its Cirque du Soleil show, Drawn To Life.
Drawn To Life
If you’ve never seen Drawn To Life, or perhaps if you want to see it again, there is now a HUGE sale happening with tickets for the show that could save you up to 30% off.
Are you planning a trip to Disney World? You’ve probably already started looking into things like how long to stay and what tickets you need, but have you chosen a hotel yet?
Conrad Orlando pool
If you haven’t — and you’re open to staying off-property (but still close to Disney World), you might want to consider a stay at the award-winning Good Neighbor hotel Conrad Orlando, which is part of the massive Evermore Resort. If so, you’ll want to take a look at a new deal the hotel is offering for Black Friday: up to 40% off rooms!
Winter is coming…and so are some great holiday souvenirs!
Target
With the holidays rolling around, we’re very shopping-focused — scoping out new finds and great deals. Our exploration has led us to Target, where you’ll find some great souvenirs that showcase your love for all things Disney, as well as some Disney Parks essentials you might want to bring with you on your next trip!
Many of us first went to Disney World as children, and children feature heavily in most Disney vacation plans. The rides, the characters, the shows, and the buffets with counters featuring kid-friendly foods signal that this destination is family-friendly. But the truth is, Disney World has always featured spaces designed for adults, from the original Top of the World Lounge that opened in the Contemporary in 1971, to the 21+ Pleasure Island nightclub district, to the ages 10 and up limitation at Disney World’s most upscale restaurant, Victoria & Albert’s.
A Walk Through the Garden Mocktail
Adults who go to Disney without kids tend to get a bad rap — but Disney has always built spaces with adults in mind. From high-end restaurants to cocktail lounges, spas, and resort experiences, parts of Disney World were designed for grown-ups from the very beginning. And yes — it’s true that Disney is banning kids from some restaurants. But that’s not new, and it’s not scandalous.
According to Yahoo News, a Melbourne man has died after going overboard on Disney Cruise Line’s Wonder ship.

The Victoria Police confirmed a report about the 73-year-old man, and a spokesperson has said, “It is understood the man died after he jumped from a cruise liner into waters in the Tasman Sea on Saturday, about 4:30 AM.”
A couple of Disney World’s best hotels aren’t even owned and operated by Disney!
The Dolphin
The Swan and Dolphin Hotels are beloved by many for their prime location, fair rates, and fantastic amenities. Owned and operated under the Marriott umbrella, these hotels have all the Disney perks without actually being Disney hotels! As such, they’re compatible with a special travel card, which has proved its usefulness far beyond a single Disney World vacation.
