The kick-off to The World’s Most Magical Celebration a few weeks ago was filled with many magical memories. I loved reuniting with long-time friends and fellow cast members at Magic Kingdom Park for the start of this 18-month celebration honoring Walt Disney World Resort’s 50th Anniversary. One of the more special moments was reconnecting with a Disney Legend whom I had not seen in 16 years.View the full article

There are a few rides that we’re pretty excited are coming to Disney World. TRON: Lightcycle Power Run is Coming to Disney World Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure debuted in EPCOT on October 1st, and we’re looking forward to Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind in EPCOT and TRON Lightcycle Run in Magic Kingdom. The TRON coaster has been pretty high-profile construction in the park — it’s hard to miss when you look at Tomorrowland! So what’s the deal with this highly-anticipated but rarely discussed coaster? What is TRON Lightcycle Run? Well, first what is TRON Lightcycle Run? This upcoming rollercoaster is an indoor/outdoor hybrid coaster coming to Tomorrowland in the Magic Kingdom. It’s based on the TRON movies and has a very futuristic vibe. TRON Lightcycle Run Vehicle Disney has shared that the attraction will allow riders to “experience the energy, lights, and excitement of TRON’s high-tech universe” in a “thrilling race through the digital frontier.” It’s another iteration of a ride that already exists at Shanghai Disney Resort. Tron Costumes The ride vehicles will be a train of two-wheeled Lightcycles that you’ll sit on like a motorcycle — similar to the way the ride vehicles on Flight of Passage work. The coaster will reach speeds of up to 59 miles per hour and the ride experience will change from day to night depending on the lighting (it will light up REALLY cool once it gets dark!). Click here to see the attraction from above! When will it open? Here’s the big question: WHEN will TRON Lightcycle Run open? The attraction was originally slated to open in time for the 50th Anniversary of Walt Disney World on October 1st. That came and went and TRON is still very much under construction. Now though, the opening remains unknown. Construction of TRON: Lightcycle Run With the closure of the Disney World parks for several months and the construction halt that came as a result of the global health crisis, TRON Lightcycle Run was likely met with delays and may not open in 2021. Disney has yet to announce an updated timeline. Want to learn more about the TRON delays? Click here! What’s the latest with construction? We may not know an opening timeline but we CAN check in on the latest with construction! We’ve been keeping a close eye on the progress of this attraction which can be seen from several areas of Magic Kingdom and neighboring hotels — most clearly perhaps from the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover. Look closely… Thus far, the outer shell of the ride building has been constructed, though we’re not sure about progress on the inside. The MOST visible project is the outdoor canopy. This MASSIVE lighted canopy surrounds the outdoor portion of the ride track and will create a VERY unique ride lighting effect on the coaster. TRON Lightcycle Run construction We’ve noticed the recent removal of construction supports from the framing of the canopy and the start of blue wrappings being added to the structure. To see more of the latest construction, click here! It doesn’t outwardly appear that there’s TOO too much left to do on TRON, but looks can be deceiving. Now we just await an opening announcement from Disney! We’ll be keeping a VERY close eye on construction and be looking for more news about TRON Lightcycle Run, so be sure to stay tuned to DFB for all the latest updates!

If you know anything about us, you know that we LOVE Food and Wine crawls, especially the cheese crawl, that we look forward to EVERY year. Pork Rinds and Pimento Cheese ©Disney But did you know that in our DFB Guide to the 2021 Food and Wine Festival, we have created 20 total Food and Wine Crawls for you to try?! You will find everything from a beer crawl and seafood crawl all the way to a chocolate crawl. You heard that right. We said chocolate crawl, and today we want to give you a sneak peek. Similar to the cheese crawl, we have tasted every item at the 2021 Food and Wine Festival and have come up with this chocolate best of the fest list. Let’s not waste any more time! Belgian Waffle with Warm Chocolate Ganache The first item on our list is located at the Belgium booth. It is the Belgian Waffle with Warm Chocolate Ganache for $4.50. Waffles with Chocolate Ganache The Belgium booth offers a Belgian waffle with warm chocolate ganache. This is a pretty classic option with a golden-baked waffle topped with whipped cream and what’s referred to as chocolate ganache (but tasted to us like your run of the mill chocolate syrup ). This is a great chocolatey snack for those who want to keep the classics. Look at all that chocolate! You can even check out the recipe for the Belgian waffles that they make at Disney World and make your own at home! Before we get too hungry, let’s move on to the next item! Click Here to Purchase the DFB Guide to the 2021 EPCOT Food and Wine Festival Candy Jar Donut This next one is for everyone looking for an ultimate chocolatey indulgence! Over at the Donut Box booth, you will find the Candy Jar Donut, and that is NOT an exaggeration of a name. That is a LOT of chocolate on a hot Florida day… This is a chocolate iced donut topped with mini M&M’s, Twix pieces, and Snickers pieces. A Chocolate lover’s dream! We called it a chocolate lovers dream in our first review of this donut, and we stand by that review! This is a must-eat item and the perfect fit for the chocolate crawl! You can pick one up for $5. This next chocolate treat will have you doing a touchdown celebration! Let’s get into it. Click Here to See All the Festival Food Booths and Menus The S’mores Whoopie Pie-lon Located at the Flavors from Fire, you will find the S’mores Whoopie Pie-lon. This dessert includes Smoked Chocolate Cake, Graham Cracker, Marshmallow, Chocolate Ganache, and Candied Bacon. The S’mores Whoopie Pie-lon: Smoked Chocolate Cake, Graham Cracker, Marshmallow, Chocolate Ganache, and Candied Bacon This is not new to this year’s festival but is a returning menu item from the 2020 festival. It is a regular favorite for us at DFB, and you can pick one up for $4. Cross-section of whoopie pie We were so glad to see this option return this year and were quickly reminded about why it’s one of our favorites. Rich chocolate cake, fluffy marshmallow, and that hint of salty smokey bacon. We could eat this all day long! At the halfway point in our crawl, we are really starting to get hungry! Let’s keep this party going with our next sweet concoction. Click Here to See Our Best of the Fest 2.0 for 2021 Warm Chocolate Pudding Cake We must have the luck of the Irish because when we saw that the Ireland booth was opening a month early, we about lost it! Ireland is open! Ireland came strong in the dessert department this year. They blew us away with the Warm Chocolate Pudding Cake with Irish Cream Liqueur Custard. Warm Chocolate Pudding Cake with Irish Cream Liqueur Custard This chocolate pudding cake was super rich and a big favorite of ours at the festival this year. It was very reminiscent of a delicious bread pudding. The Irish Cream Liqueur gave it a spiced flavoring and a hint of booze! Cross-section of Warm Chocolate Pudding Cake This is one you will NOT regret picking up. It will only set you back $4.25 and is WORTH IT! Click Here to See All Five of the Food Booths That Opened Early Capirotada de Chocolate We have come to the bitter end of this sweet challenge, but not without an amazing dessert to finish things off! We are finishing at the Mexico pavilion. Mexico Pavilion Speaking of bread pudding, there actually is an amazing chocolate bread pudding at the festival. It is the Capirotada de Chocolate. It is Abuelita Chocolate Bread Pudding served with a Chocolate Crème Anglaise, and it is amazing! 2019 Capirotada de Chocolate This is not a new menu item at the Food and Wine Festival but is consistently one of our favorite things to enjoy. You can pick one up for $5.50, which is a tad more expensive but still totally worth it!

Who’s ready to try some seasonal snacks? Now that the holiday season has arrived in Disney World AND Disneyland, we’ve been having an early Christmas feast! Between the sweet new desserts, rare character sightings, and festive merchandise, there’s a LOT to celebrate over in Disneyland! We love the holiday season! Over at Smokejumpers Grill in Disney California Adventure, there are some new seasonal offerings! What’s worth a try? Let’s find out! We went BIG at Smokejumpers; we ordered the Cranberry Turkey Burger and the Holiday Shake. Now THAT’S a meal! First up, let’s talk about the Cranberry Turkey Burger. This is a weird one: it’s a grilled turkey burger with cranberry BBQ sauce, seasoned sweet potato fries, and fried onion strings. We also ordered ours with the waffle-cut fries. Cranberry Turkey Burger The burger was a little dry, so we added some mayonnaise, which made it much better. The turkey patty was flavorful, but we thought the sweet potato fries were overcooked. The Cranberry Turkey Burger was $13.49. This is one interesting burger! Now, we have to talk about that bright red and green Holiday Shake, which was a spiced shake topped with green whipped cream and a red wreath donut. Who knew green whipped cream was a thing?! The Holiday Shake was pretty sweet overall, but hits the spot if you’re in the mood for a cold treat. The donut on top is your average donut and doesn’t add much to the shake besides making it super cute! You can try it for $8.99. Holiday Shake We’re trying lots of new seasonal snacks and treats around Disneyland and California Adventure, so stay tuned for more reviews!

Over the last few weeks, we’ve watched as holiday decorations, treats, and merchandise have taken over the Disney parks, not that we’re complaining! Wow! And while not all of the resorts get decorations as epic as the annual Gingerbread House at the Grand Floridian, they still deserve love! We just spotted some holiday decorations at another resort, and they’re beautiful! Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort is the newest Disney World hotel to get a holiday overhaul, and it’s a floral, festive delight! Caribbean Beach Holiday Decorations!! These decorations feature all kinds of tropical flowers, pineapples (which makes more sense here than some of the other places we’ve seen pineapples this holiday season,) and super bright and colorful ribbons! These flower filled wreaths are now greeting guests at the entrance! Holiday Wreaths at Caribbean Beach Resort! Of course, no holiday decorations are complete without Christmas trees, and there are TONS of them in Caribbean Beach! Caribbean Beach Christmas Tree! Here’s another tree that features more yellow and orange flowers! Caribbean Beach Holiday Tree! We love how many different trees they’ve created with these colorful tropical flowers! ANOTHER Caribbean Beach Christmas Tree Caribbean Beach is giving us so many different Christmas trees, we can’t possibly pick our favorite! Trees aren’t the only thing getting festive and floral in this resort! Holiday Decorations at Caribbean Beach Resort! There’s a floral garland hanging over this door, and these beautiful arrangements hanging from the pillars! Caribbean Beach Holiday Arrangement Here’s a closer look at the arrangements hanging from the pillars. They’re FULL of tropical flowers, and we can’t get enough of it! Look at all these decorations! We hadn’t really thought about Christmas vibes and tropical vibes being a match made in heaven, but Caribbean Beach is making some serious points with their holiday decor this year! Holiday Decorations in th Caribbean Beach Gift Shop And of course, the LAST place Disney is gonna let you forget it’s the holiday season is a gift shop, so the CBR gift shop got tricked out with festive florals as well! Garland in the Caribbean Beach Gift Shop! These garlands are hanging throughout the gift shop! The tropical flowers don’t stop, and that’s fine with us! MORE garlands MORE tropical flowers, what MORE could we want? Here’s another look at all of the garlands hanging from the ceiling. Seriously, we might have to buy some hibiscus flowers for our trees this year because we love this so much! Floral Festive Fun at Caribbean Beach We loved seeing all of the holiday cheer that’s being spread through Caribbean Beach Resort, and we think it makes a great addition to the 2021 Holiday Decoration roster!

Whether you’re heading into Disney World soon or just like to keep up with the latest updates, we’ve got all the news for changes happening inside the parks and hotels. Magic Kingdom Disney World sometimes will close a ride, restaurant, or attraction for technical reasons, weather, or scheduled maintenance. Let’s take a look at what’s scheduled to be closed in Disney World this coming week so that you’re aware of what’s not available during your trip. We’ll start out by looking at the Disney World parks. Magic Kingdom Closures Mickey’s PhilharMagic has been closed for the last month because imagineers were adding a new scene inspired by Coco to the attraction. Mickey’s PhilharMagic But we’ve got great news here — this attraction is now OPEN in Fantasyland! Come on in! You can head in to check out the new Coco scene now, which includes some amazing music from the film. Un Poco Loco Or, if you can’t get into the parks right now, check out our post about this new addition. Click Here to See the New Coco Scene in Mickey’s PhilharMagic The Walt Disney World Railroad is not quite so lucky, unfortunately. This attraction has been closed for a LONG time, and it looks like it won’t be opening anytime soon. Disney World Railroad Station Over in Tomorrowland, construction on the upcoming TRON: Lightcycle Run roller coaster interrupted the railroad’s tracks, which means the beloved train can’t run right now. Walt Disney World Railroad We’re not expecting this ride to reopen until TRON construction is finished, which will likely happen sometime next year. Animal Kingdom Closures A popular water ride is still closed in Animal Kingdom. Kali River Rapids Closure Kali River Rapids has been closed for scheduled maintenance, and it’s not expected to re-open until January 1st, 2022. Kali River Rapids Until then, check out the Expedition Everest roller coaster nearby, or head to Na’vi River Journey in Pandora for another boat ride option (albeit a much calmer one). Disney World Hotel Closures Over at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa, the Big Pine Key building has started its transformation into Disney Vacation Club villas. Grand Floridian The rooms will become 200 resort studios, which are scheduled to open in the summer of 2022. 1-Bedroom Villa ©Disney Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort still has not opened. This hotel was scheduled to open in December of this year, but Disney announced that its reopening will be delayed indefinitely due to more construction inside. All-Star Sports Disney’s Port-Orleans Riverside Resort reopened last month, but the Boatwright’s Dining Hall did not open with it. Port Orleans Riverside A Cast Member said the dining hall will likely reopen in December, so stay tuned for more updates on that!

Happy Holidays everyone! As the yuletide season begins, the Disney parks are getting ready with food festivals and plenty of new snacks! ©Disney Not only are there plenty of treats exclusive treats for the holidays, but the Festival of the Holidays is also happening in Disney California Adventure! It opened a day early and we were there to check it out. Today, we’re checking out a new holiday churro over at Disney California Adventure! The new Cherry Chocolate Churro, which is a Classic Churro rolled in crushed Chocolate Cookies and topped with Cherry Glaze and Chocolate Chips, is available at the Cozy Cone Motel for $6.29! Get a load of this churro! Sadly, when it came to this treat, we really didn’t enjoy the sweetness of the cherry sauce, which had a bit of an artificial taste. However, the churro itself was pretty good and the crushed cookies were a nice touch. Despite the overly sweet flavor of the sauce, we still think this is a decent treat, especially if you’re looking for something to satisfy your sweet tooth! It’s still a solid churro, but beware of that cherry sauce! Too sweet for us! If you’re in Disney California Adventure looking for a sweet treat, why not check out the Festival of Holidays going on right now? It’s got plenty of great sweets, like the offerings from the Making Spirits Bright booth, including the Cinnamon & Sugar Holiday Tart… Cinnamon & Sugar Holiday Tart …and the Hot Cocoa Marshmallow Macaron!

You know it’s a good day when you find not one, but TWO new pairs of Minnie ears in a Disney park! Lately, we’ve been in the mood to go shopping. Maybe it’s because the holidays are coming, or maybe it’s because Disney just released a ton of new holiday merchandise! The Force is calling us… to shop! Either way, we headed over to the Star Wars Trading Post in Downtown Disney, and we were not disappointed by what we found! As we entered the Trading Post, we were greeted by a basket of fur! More specifically, that’s a basket full of new Chewbacca Minnie ears! A basket full of fun! These ears are full of fuzzy brown fur, but don’t worry; no Wookiees were harmed in the making of these ears. * Wookiee noises* You can channel your inner Wookiee with these ears for $29.99, currently sold in Disneyland. It’s like wearing a Wookiee on your head! That’s not all, people! We found another pair of Star Wars ears…and they light up! It’s like there’s a lightsaber battle on your head. Lightsabers ON the ears? Ohh, yeah! As with most light-up Disney ears, these have a spiky headband that grips your hair. We don’t want any slip and slide accidents, after all! These things light up! Is anyone else obsessed with the tiny little lightsabers on these ears? They’re so cute! (And deadly!) Take a closer look! You can battle the enemy with your ears as you walk around Galaxy’s Edge. Here’s the other ear! Well, we know what we’ll be wearing next time we visit Batuu! Be sure to stay tuned for more merchandise updates and Disney news!

Hello from Disney Springs! Disney Springs is looking festive! In case you haven’t noticed, the holidays have EXPLODED all over Disney World, and Disney Springs is no exception. And we love this time of year because all the holiday decorations are just the thing to put us in the holiday mood. So let’s see what’s been going on at Disney Springs lately! Disney Springs Food Updates Gideon’s Bakehouse It’s a new month and you know what that means — a new limited edition cookie at Gideon’s Bakehouse! To celebrate the Day of the Dead, Gideon’s has released the Calavera Cookie (aka the Chocolate Churro Cookie). This is a chocolate cookie filled with cinnamon sugar and a pinch of ancho and cayenne chili spices. There’s also a layer of dulce de leche in the middle. AND the cookies are topped with a mixture of different chocolates. OH, YEAH. Calavera Cookie Overall, we thought this was a pretty tasty treat. It’s available all month long for $6. Read Our Full Review of This Cookie Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew Everglazed has officially unleashed its Holiday Mystery Donut and it’s an Apple Strudel Donut! The apple-flavored donut is covered with caramel sauce, coffee cake cinnamon pieces, and a vanilla frosting drizzle. AND it’s got an apple filling inside! Apple Strudel Donut We thought this donut was FANTASTIC, and it’s perfect for fall. This was available for a limited time for $6.50. Read Our Full Review of This Donut Amorette’s Patisserie There are THREE new holiday treats available now at Amorette’s Patisserie, including the White Chocolate Peppermint Éclair for $8.50, which is an eclair with a white chocolate and peppermint mousse filling, garnished with pieces of peppermint candy and gold leaf. This one is for those who love white chocolate and peppermint. White Chocolate + Peppermint = Good or Bad? There’s also the Holiday Mickey Mousse Mini Dome Cake for $9 which is Amorette’s usual dome cake with a festive makeover. It’s Chocolate Chiffon Cake, Dark Chocolate Mousse, and White Chocolate Mousse. We had this last year and this year’s treat was just as delicious! It’s a festive Mickey treat! Then there’s the Holiday Parfait for $9. It’s made with a bourbon white chocolate mousse, cranberry cherry panna cotta, maple chocolate ganache, and chocolate chiffon cake, and is garnished with candied pralines and meringue trees. Holiday Parfait Let’s just say there is A LOT going on with this snack and leave it at that. Read Our Full Review Of All Three Of These Treats Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar Jock Lindsey’s is now Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar and that means NEW holiday treats! That includes three new drinks! The first we tried was the Yule Mule, made with Bombay Sapphire, cranberry juice, rosemary simple syrup, lime juice, and ginger beer for $13. This is a great choice for mule fans! Yule Mule Then there’s the Claus Mo made with Absolut Citron, Cointreau, lime juice, cranberry juice, and shimmer for $16. It’s basically a glittery cosmo! Claus Mo However, the bar was out of creme de menthe so we didn’t get to try the third drink, the Elf Elixer. It’s a mix of white creme de cacao, green creme de menthe, and half and half. But we did get to try some food, including the Venison Slider, which is made with venison sausage patties, arugula, tomato, and cranberry aïoli on house-made buns for $14. And you’ll want to get this if you want to get some serious holiday vibes. Venison Slider There’s also the Fried Brussels Sprouts, which are served with a bacon vinaigrette for $8. They were okay, but we prefer the Brussels Sprouts from The Polite Pig over these. Fried Brussels Sprouts The Holiday Lights Deviled Eggs have returned! These are colored deviled eggs with tobiko and shrimp for $12. They’re not super spicy and the shrimp is a nice touch. And, well, the presentation is quite unique! Holiday Lights Deviled Eggs The Ham and Brie Flatbread for $9 is made with shaved ham, brie cheese, pomegranate seeds, granny smith apples, apple vinaigrette, and watercress. This was another great flatbread from Jock’s! Ham and Brie Flatbread Cookies and Milk features a variety of assorted cookies and coquito. This would make Santa very happy — it’s a big winner with us, too! It’s $27, but if you substitute milk for the coquito, it’s $9. Cookies and Milk Finally, the Lump of Coal Dessert blew us away — It’s a cookies and cream ganache “coal” for $12. The presentation was AMAZING, and it is delicious! Lump of Coal Dessert If you’re looking to get your holiday spirit on at Jock’s yourself, head on over there before the end of the holiday season! Read Our Full Review Of ALL of These Snacks Here Coca-Cola Store Rooftop Beverage Bar The drink of the month at the Coca-Cola Store Rooftop Beverage Bar is Caramel Apple Cider. It’s made with Simply Apple Juice, Smirnoff Kissed Caramel, and Jack Daniels Tennessee Apple and garnished with Whipped Cream with a Caramel Drizzle and an Apple Slice. It’s fall in a cup! This is the perfect drink if you’re not quite ready to embrace the holiday winter and just want to keep clinging to fall. It was everything we wanted in a fall drink, although pro tip: be sure to stir it because the alcohol tends to collect at the bottom. It’s available now for $15.
