  1. We have fantastic news for those of you who have been on a Disney Cruise before, and are planning to sail on the Disney Treasure!

    2024-dcl-disney-treasure-cruise-ship-lin

    After you’ve sailed with Disney Cruise Line one time, you become what’s called a Castaway Club Member. There are 4 tiers to this loyalty program, starting with Silver (1 sailing), followed by Gold (5 sailings), Platinum (10 sailings), and Pearl (25 sailings). And we just found out that Castaway Club members of all levels will get special gifts when sailing on the Disney Treasure!

    Click here to subscribe

    Disney recently sent an email to some Castaway Club members and released a video online teasing some of these new free gifts members will get if they sail during the new ship’s inaugural season.

    From the small peek we’re given, it looks like members could be given a Disney Treasure shirt, stickers, pouch, lunchbox, and potentially something that looks like an even larger bag!

    Now, we don’t know yet if all members will get all of these goodies, or if it will depend on your status, but we’ll be sure to let you know when we find out!

    Be sure to stay tuned to DFB for all the latest Disney Cruise Line news!

    Check out this sneak peek of 6 exclusive souvenirs coming to the Disney Treasure!

  2. It’s hard to top Mother’s Day at Disney World!

    2020-wdw-disney-springs-atmo-amorettes-7

    Amorette’s

    We hope you had a FANTASTIC Mother’s Day this past weekend! If you visited Disney World on the special day, we hope you stopped by Disney Springs and Amorette’s Patisserie for a Mother’s Day treat! If you missed out — don’t worry! We have the deets!

    Click here to subscribe

    Amorette’s Patisserie offered the Mother’s Day-exclusive Mother’s Day Éclair and we were quick to try it! Read ahead to see what we thought!

    2024-wdw-disney-springs-amorettes-patiss

    Mother’s Day Éclair

    This dessert cost $7.25 and was described as a lemon and lavender éclair.

    Aesthetically, this was a beautiful dessert! The “flower” icing decorations and chocolate medallion perfectly fit the Mother’s Day vibe and were quite tasty!

    We picked up a hint of cream cheese (perhaps used as a base for the decorations) and the decorations balanced sweet and tart with a creamy texture. We only wish it wasn’t so hot outside because our medallion melted QUICKLY.

    2024-wdw-disney-springs-amorettes-patiss

    Inside the Ă©clair

    The Ă©clair decorations had to do a lot of heavy lifting, as we found the bread to be incredibly dry.

    Fortunately, the filling had strong flavors of lemon and lavender and was creamy enough to leave us happy, when it’s all said and done.

    2024-wdw-disney-springs-amorettes-patiss

    These Ă©clairs didn’t last long!

    We thought this Ă©clair was a nice mix of sweet and tart, but thought it was a potentially messy dessert. Overall, we thought this was a good specialty treat.

    Despite liking this Ă©clair, we can’t recommend it simply because it’s no longer available! We’ll just have to wait and see if it returns for the next Mother’s Day!

    In the meantime, stay tuned here at DFB for all the latest Disney World news, tips, reviews, and more!

  3. Between new restaurants, rides, and rethemed classics, Disney is always trying to keep things interesting and exciting for us!

    2023-wdw-mk-castle-atmo-stock-1-700x525.

    Cinderella Castle

    But, more often than not, that means a bit of renovation is needed in order to make it happen. Keeping up with the latest construction permits Disney files can be a great way to find out just what is going on around the parks and hotels, and we just found a pretty exciting one!

    Click here to subscribe

    We’re always on the hunt for the latest permits filed by Disney to get an idea of what sort of changes might be coming to the parks, and we just found an interesting one! A new permit has been filed for work over at the Carousel of Progress in Magic Kingdom.

    wdw-2022-magic-kingdom-walt-disneys-caro

    Carousel of Progress

    The permit is for “general construction” which could really mean anything — so we’re not totally sure what Disney has planned here. The Carousel of Progress first debuted at the New York World’s Fair in 1964 and was later moved to Disneyland before finding its final home at Disney World. So, this is a rather old attraction!

    2022-wdw-mk-tomorrowland-carousel-of-pro

    Carousel of Progress

    We don’t think this will be a major retheme or anything, but the ride could use a little TLC, so maybe a refurbishment is on the horizon. For now, there aren’t any closures listed for Carousel of Progress, but we’ll be keeping an eye out!

    2022-wdw-mk-tomorrowland-carousel-of-pro

    Fall on Carousel of Progress

    In other permit news, we spotted that Swirled Showcase — the EPCOT festival booth — had a new permit pulled on it as well. The description lists “Provide labor, material, and/or electrical for construction,” so we’ll be keeping an eye out for any changes here as well. It’s possible we could see something new here in time for the Food & Wine Festival!

    2024-wdw-epcot-world-celebration-fota-fa

    Swirled Showcase

    And, despite its recent extended closure, yet another permit has been filed for the Doubloon Lagoon pool at Port Orleans French Quarter — so we’ll let you know if any more closures are on the horizon for this pool soon enough.

  4. Summer is nearly here and although summers at Disney World are a blast, there are still some downsides you need to be warned about.

    2024-wdw-mk-cinderella-castle-stock-700x

    Cinderella Castle

    Between large crowds and hurricane season, Disney World can be tricky to navigate during the summer months. However, one of the most glaring issues is the heat — and Disney World guests will be feeling it in spades this week!

    According to News 6, the Orlando area will encounter scattered storms and high temperatures in the next few days thanks to a stationary front.

    2023-WDW-Magic-Kingdom-Crowds-Atmo-2-2-7

    Can you beat the heat at Disney World?

    Tuesday (May 14th, 2024) is supposed to be the hottest day of the week with temperatures reaching 94 degrees Fahrenheit and a heat index of 102. Wednesday remains nearly as hot with temperatures around 91 degrees and a heat index of 99 degrees. Thursday also shows similar trends.

    2024-click-orlano-may-temperature-heat-i

    The heat is expected to feature highs of mid- to low 90s and peak heat indices between 100-105 degrees in the afternoon hours, according to News 6. Lows are expected to remain in the upper 60s to low 70s in the evenings.

    Rain is possible every day through Sunday, May 19th, with rainfall possibility being as high as 60% on Wednesday. Monday and Tuesday each have a 50% rainfall chance and Friday through Sunday each have a 40% chance. Thursday has the lowest rain chance with 30%.

    If you’re visiting Disney World this week, or any week where this kind of weather might occur — we have a few recommendations.

    Rule No. 1 is to always stay hydrated and take breaks as needed. The heat will make it nearly impossible to go full speed. Also be sure to pack sunscreen and other protection, such as hats, cooling towels, and misting fans. We also recommend wearing breathable clothes and bringing stormwear with you to the Disney Parks, like ponchos and rain jackets. Remember, these are hot STORMS, and you’ll need to prep for the heat AND the rain.

  5. By this time next year, Universal Orlando’s new park, Epic Universe, could be open!

    2024-universal-epic-universe-harry-potte

    ©Universal

    We’re still waiting for an official opening date to be announced, but until that comes, we’re keeping a close eye on all the latest construction updates. One of the most anticipated new lands is the new Ministry of Magic section, which is partially set in Paris (from the Fantastic Beasts films), and well, we think it’s looking really familiar!

    Click here to subscribe

    Thanks to @bioreconstruct on Twitter/X, we’re able to see a bird’s eye view of all the construction happening in the new park, and s it just us, or does the Paris section of the Ministry of Magic look a LOT like the France Pavilion in EPCOT?

    While the colors aren’t exactly the same, we’re loving that the architecture looks so familiar. We love the EPCOT pavilion, so we’re really hoping we’ll feel like we’re in Paris here too!

    Some scaffolding is returning to the area, which means they are likely working on the outside facades of these buildings.

    Plus, they’ve added a tent at the front of the suspected theater attraction!

    Overall, the land looks like it’s coming along really nicely, and we can’t believe we could be just a year(ish) away from experiencing it!

    We’re keeping our eyes out for more Epic Universe news, so be ready to learn more as it gets released. Looking for more Epic Universe news? We can help!

  6. It’s no secret we’re BIG fans of the food in all the parks at Disney World.

    2024-wdw-atmo-dhs-hollywood-studios-entr

    Hollywood Studios

    But Disney’s Hollywood Studios has some delicious snacks that we particularly care to enjoy. Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge has delicious ronto wraps, Toy Story Land has fun “totchos” and pop tarts, plus so much more. But there is one snack cart that we’ve been worried about for a while now, and clearly, we had good reason to be!

    Click here to subscribe

    For the past month or so now, we’ve noticed that the Grand Avenue Snack Cart was closed every time we visited it. This snack cart is located on Grand Avenue (hence its name) near the new Ice Cold Hydraulics stand and the walkway to MuppetVision 3D. Don’t worry, we’ve included a beautiful drawing of its precise location!

    2024-wdw-Hollywood-Studios-grand-avenue-

    ©Disney (drawing by us)

    But sadly, we have seen it all covered up like in the picture below for a while now.

    2024-wdw-Hollywood-Studios-grand-avenue-

    It’s been closed for a while now

    When we were back in the park the other day, we found that the snack stand was completely GONE! Disney removed the snack stand, but the umbrella that is normally with it was still there.

    2024-wdw-Hollywood-Studios-grand-avenue-

    It’s GONE!

    Disney didn’t give any indication of what has befallen this snack stand, and we’re certainly worried about its condition. It could be getting an upgrade or perhaps taken to never return again. We love our snacks, so one less place to grab them is unfortunate. It’s more than likely that it will return, but we’ll be keeping our eyes out for it! If you’re in the neighborhood and in need of a snack, then consider hopping over to Ice Cold Hydraulics for some Coca-Cola-flavored treats.

  7. Who knew that some of the best (and cheapest!) Disney merch is HIDING at your local Aldi grocery store?

    Aldi-stock-700x266.png

    Aldi is known for its affordable groceries, but one of the most popular aisles is what the internet has dubbed the “aisle of shame.” It’s actually called the Aldi Finds aisle, and there’s one in every store. There, you can find all kinds of great deals on non-food merch, and sometimes there are even Disney-themed souvenirs! Aldi posts the upcoming “Finds” (because the items change each week), so we tracked down some of our FAVORITE Disney items coming soon!

    Some of these items are already available at certain Aldi locations, and others are on Aldi’s list of upcoming Finds for the week of May 15th through the 21st. I’ve had mixed luck with tracking down the Finds of the week at my local store, so availability really just depends on each individual location!

    Kids’ Water Bottles

    So technically the popular Bluey TV show isn’t Disney
but because you can watch it on Disney+, we’re including this Bluey-themed scooter on our list of Disney finds! The three-wheel scooter is for kids ages three and up, and it has a rear step-on brake. Aldi lists it at $19.99.

  9. We’re in Disney World every day of the year, so we’ve come to know the parks very well.

    2024-WDW-Magic-Kingdom-Cinderella-Castle

    Magic Kingdom

    That’s why we’re always sharing the latest Disney World secrets with you, as well as our best tips and tricks. We also like to keep you updated on new food, plus any cool new facts we learn about the parks. Well, although we’ve been to Disney World HUNDREDS of times, we’re still learning something new every day. We just recently learned something about a Magic Kingdom ride that blew our minds, so we had to share it with you!

    Okay, so we’ve all been on Space Mountain, right? It’s a classic Disney attraction that is a MUST, even though we know it’s going to shake every bone in our body loose from the joints (seriously, our poor backs). So let’s talk about Space Mountain. It feels kinda’ fast, right? Well, Space Mountain is going under 30 mph. That’s it. It just feels more thrilling in the dark, we guess.

    2024-wdw-atmo-mk-magic-kingdom-tomorrowl

    Space Mountain

    Okay, let’s talk about The Barnstormer over in Storybook Circus. So The Barnstormer is considered a “kiddie coaster,” because it mostly appeals to kids (although, we won’t lie — we love Barnstormer and think it’s way underrated). However, did you know that Barnstormer and Space Mountain go about the same speed? No, really, there’s only about a 2mph difference between the two.

    2023-WDW-Magic-Kingdom-The-Barnstormer-A

    Barnstormer

    In comparison, one of Magic Kingdom’s other roller coasters, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, goes around 36 mph. So it’s not MUCH faster, but it’s enough to make a difference and to sling you into whoever you’re riding with when you take those sharp turns.

    2024-wdw-atmo-mk-frontierland-big-thunde

    Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

    However, if you want something a LOT faster, Magic Kingdom’s newest ride, Tron Lightcycle / Run, offers speeds up to nearly 60mph. Now THAT’S fast.

    2023-wdw-atmos-mk-tomorrowland-tron-ride

    TRON Lightcycle / Run

    So why is The Barnstormer considered a kiddie coaster? Well, it’s certainly marketed that way because most of Storybook Circus is very kid-friendly. But the truth is that it offers a very similar experience, at least when it comes to speed, as you get on Space Mountain. The only difference is location and theme. How wild is that?

    2021-wdw-magic-kingdom-atmosphere-barnst

    The Barntstormer entrance

    We would also argue that The Barnstormer isn’t as bone-shaking as Space Mountain. It certainly feels like a smoother ride. So if you’re looking for a coaster that isn’t TOO fast and that is a little more comfortable, head on over to Storybook Circus.

    2024-wdw-mk-frontierland-tianas-bayou-ad

    Tiana’s Bayou Adventure

    Our anticipation has only been building since Tiana’s Bayou Adventure was announced in 2020 to replace Magic Kingdom and Disneyland’s Splash Mountain. After countless construction and merchandise updates, we finally have the BIGGEST update! Soon, YOU can FINALLY ride the brand new attraction!

    OK, Disney fans, mark June 28th in your calendars because that’s when you can FINALLY ride Tiana’s Bayou Adventure!

    Construction Cast Members ride testing!

    The new attraction is a log flume ride that still features a 52.5-foot drop and takes riders on a tour of the bayou based on Disney Animation’s 2009 classic The Princess and the Frog. Riders will join Princess Tiana and jazz-loving alligator Louis after the events of the 2009 film as they prepare for a Mardi Gras and New Orleans celebration. The attraction will also feature many familiar faces, some new ones, heavy Louisianna inspiration, and new and returning music.

    Additionally, Disney finally confirmed that Magic Kingdom will host preview opportunities ahead of the official grand opening for Florida-based Cast Members, Annual Passholders, and eligible Disney Vacation Club Members. We’re still waiting on more information (like sign-up dates and availability), but we expect to learn more starting May 14th.

  12. GET OUT YOUR CALENDARS — there is an incredibly important date you need to mark down!

    It’s been a long time coming. We’ve been monitoring the construction progress in Magic Kingdom for AGES as Splash Mountain slowly transformed into Tiana’s Bayou Adventure. Disney has shared all kinds of fun updates about the animatronics on the ride, teased a beignet-scented queue, and tested the big drop LIVE in Magic Kingdom. We also shared that the ride is opening in Magic Kingdom in the summer of 2024, but now the moment has arrived — we have the official, CONFIRMED opening DATE!

    Click here to subscribe

    Now, you might have noticed we emphasized an official, confirmed opening date. That’s because this news was seemingly leaked EARLY. Yep, Disney shared — and quickly took down — a press release announcing the opening date on May 12th. Below, you can see the dateline read “(TBD, 2024).”

    A few minutes after Disney shared the news, the press release was removed from the Disney Press Website. That had fans wondering
WHEN is Tiana’s Bayou Adventure actually opening?!

    Well, during ABC’s special “Disney Night” episode of American Idol, Disney confirmed that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will officially open in Magic Kingdom on June 28th, 2024.

    Disney also confirmed that Florida-based Cast Members, Annual Passholders, and eligible Disney Vacation Club Members will be able to preview the ride AHEAD of the opening date! More information will be revealed starting May 14th — stay tuned!

    Tiana’s Bayou Adventure in Magic Kingdom

    While Park Passes are not required for those with date-based tickets anymore, if you are an Annual Passholder or have tickets that still require Park Passes, you should make your Park Pass reservations for Magic Kingdom A.S.A.P. if you want to be there on the ride’s opening day! We expect those Park Passes will fill up in no time!

    2024-wdw-mk-tianas-bayou-adventure-new-s

    The new mural!

    For those unfamiliar with it, Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is a Princess and the Frog re-theme of Splash Mountain. While you’ll still get to experience the signature drop from the old ride, the story will be all new. The ride picks up after the Princess and the Frog movie, giving you the chance to “join Princess Tiana and Louis on a musical adventure – featuring some of the powerful music from the film – as they prepare for their first-ever Mardi Gras performance.”

    2024-tianas-bayou-adventure-tiana-animat

    According to the story of the ride, Princess Tiana has opened her own restaurant (Tiana’s Palace). She is now hosting a Mardi Gras party for the community that has supported her and her restaurant, but she realizes that a key ingredient is missing, and she needs your help to find it!

    2024-wdw-mk-tianas-bayou-adventure-new-s

    It’s Mardi Gras season!

    You’ll get to help Tiana on this quest while also meeting lots of friends — old and new! Princess Tiana will appear with a NEW look, and we’ll get to see other characters too, like Eudora, Charlotte, “Big Daddy,” the King and Queen of Maldonia, Prince Naveen, Louis, Mama Odie, and even Prince Ralphie (Naveen’s brother).

    IMG_3017-700x388.jpg

    Some of the new characters for the ride include a band of musical critters! The song will have a NEW original song created by PJ Morton, all kinds of special details in the queue (like the smell of beignets!), and more.

    AND Tiana’s Bayou Adventure will even feature a few “subtle nods” to Splash Mountain throughout the ride.

    So, grab somebody, come on down, catch you down in New Orleans (well, technically we’ll catch you down in Frontierland, but you get the idea!).

    Oh, and while you’re at it, consider grabbing a Briar Patch Band shirt to celebrate its “farewell tour.”
