Every now and then, we love to quiz our followers over on Instagram to see how much Disney trivia they know! With the holiday season kicking off this week in Disney World with festive decorations and snacks starting to appear, we thought we would throw some Disney holiday trivia questions out there and see what the responses were like! Animal Kingdom Christmas Tree See if you can play along to find out how many of these questions you would get correct! Warning, this quiz stumped a LOT of our followers — only 9% of those who responded said they got all six questions correct, while 91% missed having a perfect score! Let’s dive in and see what YOUR score is! We seemed to have stump a lot of followers! We asked which Disney World attraction does NOT typically get a holiday overlay: Living With the Land, Jungle Cruise, Peter Pan’s Flight, or Tomorrowland Speedway? Do you know the right answer? The correct answer is Peter Pan’s Flight! Let’s fly! Living With the Land has received its own special holiday lighting in recent years, Jungle Cruise transforms into Jingle Cruise, and Tomorrowland Speedway gets a small overlay during the after-hours holiday parties. It’s Jingle Cruise time! We then asked, how tall is the Magic Kingdom Christmas tree: 70 feet, 58 feet, 75 feet, or 65 feet? How tall is the tree? The correct answer is 65 feet! Christmas tree is up in Magic Kingdom! We then asked our followers if they knew what these lights shown below are called: Dream Lights, Disney’s Holiday Lights, Illuminating Lights, or Cinderella’s Magical Lights? What are these lights called? The correct answer is Dream Lights! While they are not returning this year, in years past the Dream Lights would light up nightly in Magic Kingdom. Last year and this year, Cinderella Castle took on a new holiday look with special projection designs. Holiday projections on Cinderella Castle Next question! Which popular Disney World lounge gets a MAJOR holiday makeover each year: BaseLine Tap House, Nomad Lounge, Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar, or La Cava del Tequila? Which answer is the right one? While you may spot special holiday menu items at several of these lounges, Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar goes all-out with multiple new menu items and tons of holiday decor as it transforms into Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar. Seriously, they go all out. The next question was, what is the year-round Christmas store in Magic Kingdom called: Disney’s Days of Christmas, Ye Old Christmas Store, Uptown Christmas Shoppe, or Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe? Do you know what the name of this store is? The correct answer is Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe! It’s located in Liberty Square and sells holiday decorations 365 days a year. Fun fact: there’s a NEW year-round Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe that just opened in Disneyland, too! It’s Christmas every day at Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe in Magic Kingdom! The final question in our holiday trivia game was, what year did the very first “Disney Parks Christmas Day Parade” air: 2002, 1983, 1971, or 1996? What is the correct year? The parade isn’t quite as old as Disney World itself, but it’s pretty close: the first parade aired in 1983! It was hosted by Joan Lunden and Mike Douglas. Christmas parades at Disney World are the best, aren’t they? So, how did you do? Be sure to follow us on Instagram and check our stories to see when we post more Disney trivia questions!

One of the best parts about EPCOT is getting to visit 11 countries in one day (well, sort of)! Norway Pavilion The World Showcase features several pavilions that bring different cultures and cuisines to one place. And, even though there are many challenges Disney-goers try to conquer, like the 4 parks in one day challenge, one of the most popular is to eat and/or drink around the world! Today, we’re showing you how much it would cost to eat around the world using different budgets and preferences! Reminder: Disney World changes ALL of the time. Prices are constantly increasing and menus change every so often. Depending on when your next Disney trip is, the prices and availability of menu items could be different. How to Eat Around the World for Under $75 Plenty of people think it costs a lot of money to eat around the world, and although it can, it’s also easy to do it on a budget! Let’s take a look at how to eat around the world for less than $75. Canada Even if YOU start your trip around World Showcase in the Mexico Pavilion, we’re starting this list on the opposite side over in Canada! This pavilion is known for a Canadian staple: maple — you’ll find the gift shop lined with maple candies and syrups. But, you can also grab a bucket of Maple Popcorn at the Canada Popcorn Cart! Maple Popcorn in Canada This is, as of now, the ONLY spot on property to find maple popcorn, so don’t skip this! For a regular serving of maple popcorn, it’ll cost you $6.25. The maple-flavored popcorn is the same price as the regular popcorn, so why not upgrade right?! Keep in mind if you have a refillable popcorn bucket, it’ll only cost you $2 per refill, just like “normal” popcorn! More snacks you can grab in the Canada pavilion! United Kingdom Now, the United Kingdom is prettyyyyy light when it comes to snacks, however, a classic UK snack is available at the Yorkshire County Fish Shop. Yep, hot and crisp thick-cut chips for only $3.99! Yummmmm! Chips also happen to be an excellent portable snack. These ain’t your normal Disney World fast-food fries — they are salty, crisp on the outside, and fluffy on the inside thicker cut steak fries. Plus they have malt vinegar to douse on top, if that’s your jam. So you can nosh on the go and even share if you’re willing! Check out candy from all over World Showcase France Ahhhh, the France Pavilion — home to some of the best snacks on ALL of Disney property. If you are on a budget, there are actually lots of inexpensive options in France! For this list, we’re taking a look at the bakery case in Les Halles Boulangerie Patisserie. Though you can’t go wrong with many pastries available under $5, our pick for this challenge is the Mousse au Chocolat for $4.95 Mousse au Chocolat And if savory is your preference, Les Halles has you covered there as well. You can find croissants and baguettes for under $5, too! No really, let’s talk about that for a second: a WHOLE fresh-baked baguette for a couple of bucks. Yeah. Make it happen. BRAIN FREEZE ALERT! Our FAVORITE Frozen Drinks Around Disney World! Morocco The Morocco pavilion has undergone some changes in the past few months as its management switched over to Disney. Now, though, there’s a new place to grab some snacks and drinks in the pavilion! Morocco Pastries At Oasis Sweets and Sips, AKA the Spice Road Table Juice Bar, there is a huge assortment of Moroccan pastries. But get this — each pastry is only $2.50 each! What a steal! They get even cheaper the more you buy at once too! The baklava has been a staple in the Morocco pavilion for quite some time, but there are plenty of options here you’re sure to enjoy. Check out our review of Morocco’s tasty treats! Japan The next treat on our budget-friendly list is perfect for hot summer days in Florida! We’re talking about the Kakigōri from Kabuki Cafe. Rainbow Kakigori If you haven’t heard of Kakigōri, it is Japanese shaved ice, and you can choose from the flavors Rainbow, Strawberry, Melon, Cherry, Tangerine, and Blue Raspberry. A regular serving with just the shaved ice is $5.50, but you can add the sweet milk (or booze!) on top for a small up-charge! Learn more about Kakigori here America One of the newest restaurants in Disney World is the Regal Eagle Smokehouse in the America pavilion. Not only did we fall in love with their barbecue, but some of their sides serve as a perfect snack for eating around the world! Mac and Cheese For this pavilion, we’d recommend the side of Mac and Cheese or Onion Rings which are both $4.99. The Mac and Cheese is more bang for your buck because you ultimately get more of it than you do Onion Rings, but they are both delicious (and cheap) snack options! The mac could stand to up the cheesiness but, in a pinch, it’s satisfying. How to Hack a Mac and Cheese Burger in Disney World Italy Ciao! Next up is the Italy pavilion where you can grab some classic Italian treats at its newest dining spot, the Gelateria Toscana, which opened in May 2021. Here you can pick up The Godfather of Italian snacks, the cannoli! Say YES to the cannoli. Just trust us. The Cannoli Al Cioccolato is a crisp pastry filled with smooth, sweet ricotta, chocolate chips, and candied orange for $6.95. It’s one of the better cannolis we’ve had in Disney World, and honestly is a step up from the cannoli you’ll find at many Italy festival booths in EPCOT. The new Gelateria has a host of other snacks, but this one is a classic and it’s budget-friendly! Check Out Our First Review of the Gelateria Toscana! Germany Perhaps the most ENORMOUS snack on the list is the Jumbo Pretzel in the Germany pavilion! This is a staple in this pavilion, so of course, it had to be on the list. You might see Mickey Pretzels all over Disney World but these are unique to EPCOT. A giant soft pretzel from Germany! You can currently grab this at Sommerfest or the beer and pretzel carts in the pavilion (one out on the main World Showcase walkway and one just inside the pavilion) and, because it is big, it comes at a price. This is the most expensive snack on the budget list at $9.39! It may be big and a little pricey, but it is VERY shareable. Read our review of Germany’s Jumbo Pretzel! China Next up, we’re headed to the China pavilion! Where you can never go wrong with egg rolls. Here there are two spots you can score Pork and Vegetable Egg Rolls! Pork and Vegetable Egg Rolls Inside You can currently grab these at both Joy of Tea and Lotus Blossom Cafe. It’s a great and simple snack for just $4.95! Here’s our latest Lotus Blossom Cafe review! Norway Ahhhh, one of the most iconic EPCOT snacks — it’s School Bread! This little treat feels like it’s been around FOREVER, and we have adored it for years. School Bread The classic Norwegian treat is made with a sweet bread roll injected with vanilla custard (it’s really more like a sweet thick vanilla whipped cream!), then covered with sweet icing and toasted coconut. AND this tasty pastry is only $4.49 at Kringla Bakeri og Cafe. I Read more about this iconic Norway treat Mexico Last but not least is the Mexico pavilion! At one of the pavilion’s most popular quick restaurants, La Cantina de San Angel, you can grab the Mini Churros with Hazelnut Spread (AKA Nutella). Churros and Nutella The churros used to have a caramel sauce and, for a while, a chocolate sauce, but the Nutella is just as good, if not better. This snack is super easy to share, and a perfect way to finish eating around the world! The churros are $5.89. Here’s our review of the Churros with Nutella! So, we took a look at some of the best budget-friendly snacks in EPCOT’s World Showcase, but what is the grand total? You can get all of these snacks for just $59.85 (tax not included)!!! That’s less than lunch for ONE person at Cinderella’s Royal Table! Eating around the world can be expensive, but it doesn’t HAVE to be. Eating Around the World With an Unlimited Budget For those who have a little more room in their Disney World budget, we’re taking a look at some eats that may cost a little more or have bigger portions. Sure, we’re going from spending as little as possible to blowing it out on pricier food, but it’ll give you a good range to imagine playing with. Canada We’re starting in the Canada pavilion again, but this time we’re talking about Traditional Poutine at the Refreshment Port! Traditional Poutine This classic snack has its own fast food kiosk at Disney Springs, but you can grab it in EPCOT for $7.50. It’s simply made with French fries, beef gravy, and cheese curds! Sometimes, during festivals especially, the poutine here gets a makeover and has really unique toppings like lobster or braised beef. Read more out Canada’s Traditional Poutine United Kingdom Did you really visit the United Kingdom pavilion if you didn’t have some fish and chips?! Well, luckily Yorkshire County Fish Shop serves up some AMAZING Fish & Chips! This is basically beer-battered crispy fish perfection. Even those who hate fish can likely enjoy this — the fish used is about as mild as you can get and definitely not fishy! Fish and Chips from Yorkshire County Fish Shop For $11.49, you’ll get two sizable pieces of fish on a bed of “chips”, AKA fries (those same fries we told you to get if you’re eatin’ on a budget above!). Not only can this be a meal, but you can share it with a group as well! Here’s our latest review of Fish & Chips! France It’s no secret that the France pavilion is basically the queen of snacks, but there is one unique snack that is one of our must-haves when we visit. We’re talking about the Croque Glace! L’Artisan des Glaces Pressed Brioche Ice Cream Sandwich with Pistachio Ice Cream and Raspberry Sauce The treat is made with one huge scoop of ice cream with your choice of sauce in a homemade brioche and pressed warm. It’s a homemade warm ice cream sammie and it’s just as incredible as it sounds. Not only is it customizable, but it’s easy to share if you cut it in half. You can grab this unique snack at L’Artisan des Glaces for $9.50! See how this treat is made here! Morocco The Morocco pavilion does not have a lot of snacks since its main quick-service restaurant remains closed. However, Spice Road Table received a NEW menu when it reopened last year that is full of small plates! There are a few options, but if you grab the Spice Road Table Sampler, you’ll get a few snacks in one! Tiropitakia For $15, you can get Lamb Kefta, Tzatziki, Spiced Chicken, and Tiropitakia. Although the restaurant is table-service, there is rarely a wait to walk up and it can be a pretty quick meal or snack break. Check out our review of Spice Road Table’s reopening Japan Wandering into the Japan pavilion, Katsura Grill got some new-ish menu items, and some of them aren’t what we’d expect at a Japanese restaurant! We LOVED trying these Yuzu Miso Wings! Yuzu Miso Wings This dish comes with 6 fried and saucy chicken wings!! These wings were sweet and had a fresh citrusy, lemony flavor. And you could probably share these, but they’re so good you may be tempted to keep them all to yourself! This snack is $12.00. Take a look at the other newer menu items at Katsura Grill America We’re back in America, and instead of going towards some barbecue, we’re going for over-the-top sweets this time! In the American Adventure pavilion, you can grab the HUGE Cookies and Cream Funnel Cake! Cookies n’ Cream Funnel Cake For $13.50, the funnel cake is topped with powdered sugar, vanilla ice cream, crushed cookies, and chocolate sauce. You’ll find this at the Funnel Cake Stand in the pavilion. This is perfect if you have a sweet tooth, or a big group to share this with! Check out our full review of the Cookies & Cream Funnel Cake Italy Yep, we’re back at the Gelateria Toscana, but this time to grab one of the incredible frozen treats! Here you have options on delicious gelato creations! Coppa Amicizia The Coppa Deliza is made with strawberry, vanilla, cookie and cream, strawberry sauce, and whipped cream. The Coppa Del Nonno comes with vanilla, chocolate, and cookies & cream, and is topped with chocolate sauce, whipped cream, and amaretto cookies. “Affogato” Espresso Gelato is made with fresh Italian espresso poured over vanilla gelato and amaretto cookies. Lastly, the Coppa Amicizia with cookies and cream, strawberry and topped with whipped cream. Each one is $11.75, and a great refreshing treat on a hot Florida day! Here’s our review of the Coppa Deliza Germany It’s hard to walk through the Germany pavilion and not get lured into Karamell Küche, the bakery sponsored by Werther’s Original classic, and it’s another spot you can grab portable snack that happens to be one of our favorites, Caramel Popcorn for $6.99. We’ve always loved Karamell Küche, and we love it even more now that it’s an option for Mobile Order! Now we don’t have to wait in line to get our favorite sweet snacks, we can order them in advance! And if you happen to visit EPCOT during the holiday season, check the Mobile Order menu or the bakery case here to see if you spot the Gingerbread Caramel Cookie Sandwich for $5.99. This has two soft gingerbread cookies with buttercream icing and Werther’s Original caramel, and we have to get one every time we visit here! Review: The S’more Treat from Karamell-Küche in EPCOT Looks a Little Different China Next up is the China pavilion! We’re headed to Lotus Blossom Cafe where you can pick up the Pot Stickers! The serving comes with 3, and a dipping sauce. Pot Stickers This snack is on the smaller side for this list, but it’ll only cost you $6.50! Read more about these Pot Stickers! Norway It’s hard to go wrong when picking a pastry in Kringla Bakeri og Cafe, but for the purposes of this list, we’ve chosen the Norwegian Kringla Pretzel! Kringla Pretzel, maybe not the most photogenic, but super yummy! There are several toppings to choose from including chocolate, cinnamon, almonds, and there is often a seasonal version! We’ve seen pumpkin, and even a holiday sprinkles option in the past. Whichever flavor you choose, it’ll cost you $6.29. Here’s our review of the Pumpkin Spice Kringla Pretzel Mexico And we’ve officially made it all the way to Mexico! One of the most iconic (and delicious) snacks here is the Chips and Guacamole. You can find guacamole at La Cantina de San Angel, La Cava del Tequila, and Choza de Margarita, but after our official guacamole throw-down, we decided that Choza de Margarita’s is the best (they’re all really good though)! Guacamole from the Mexico Pavilion The Choza de Margarita guacamole contains chile and is topped with mango and pumpkin seeds for $10. All of the guacamoles are great, but that one is our personal fav, and it is the perfect snack at this pavilion! The ULTIMATE Guacamole Throw Down at the Mexico Pavilion in Disney World And that’s a wrap on eating around the world on an unlimited budget! These aren’t necessarily the MOST expensive items in each pavilion, but they are bigger portions and therefore some are more pricey. The grand total for these 11 snacks is $115.52 before tax! Not too bad for a LOT of food! Drinking Around the World If you are part of the 21+ crowd, you might’ve thought about drinking around the world! We’re sharing some of our favorites and the classics in each pavilion to see how much it actually costs to drink around the world. Remember if you attempt this challenge to make sure you do so responsibly, drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and mix in some snacks here and there to help keep any queasy side effects at bay. If you have a friend or significant other to help split the drinks, you might actually be able. towalk out of EPCOT at the end of the night (but seriously, 11 drinks is a LOT so we recommend a helper!). Canada Starting drinking in Canada is always a tricky one. There are often seasonal drinks that can be found at the Refreshment Port or the Popcorn Cart in Canada. But a Canadian classic that is available year-round is the Moosehead Lager for $9.25. This is a lighter beer that isn’t as hoppy as some beers you might encounter. It’s also the beer that is usually used in the classic beer cheese soup you’ll also find in this pavilion (at both Le Cellier and usually at the Food and Wine Festival Canada booth). So, if you’d rather grab a cup of that cheesy soup to count for your “drink” here, we won’t hold that against you! Disney Recipe: Make Disney’s Famous Canadian Cheddar Cheese Soup at Home! United Kingdom There are plenty of incredible and hearty drinks at the Rose and Crown Pub in the United Kingdom pavilion, but one of the most popular is the Snake Bite! Rose and Crown The Snake Bite Imperial Pint is made with half cider and half Harp, and it’s only $10 at the Rose and Crown Pub. There’s nothing like drinking a pint in an English pub! Here’s our latest review from Rose and Crown! France The France pavilion is known for its food, but there are some incredible boozy drinks here as well. One of the most iconic drinks here is the alcoholic slushes at the kiosk called Les Vins des Chefs de France! Pretty enough to drink! You can currently choose between an Orange Slush with Grand Marnier, Rum, Grey Goose Orange, and Orange Juice OR the Citron Slush with Grey Goose Citron, Vodka, and Lemonade. During festivals, the France booth will sometimes offer a different flavor boozy slush, but these slushes are $13.50 apiece, and one of our favorite drinks on the list! Check out more on the iconic Orange Slush! Morocco A hidden gem within the Morocco pavilion is the bar at Spice Road Table! Even though it is a table-service restaurant, you can walk up and grab a drink to-go which is a super convenient way to get great drinks! Spice Road Table Bar Since you are visiting the Morocco pavilion, we’d recommend the Moroccan Mule that is made of Figenza Fig Vodka, Ginger Beer, Agave, and Lime. That cocktail is $14! Here’s more on Spice Road Table! Japan Sake is a huge part of the Japan pavilion, so much so that there is an entire sake bar devoted to this rice wine! Sake The sake bar has only been open seasonally for now, but both Katsura Grill and Kabuki Cafe offer hot and cold sake for $8. Check out our review of the Pineapple Sake! America The American Adventure pavilion has several classic American drinks like Tennessee Lemonade and Strawberry Daiquiris, but for this list, we included the Frozen Red Stag Lemonade! Frozen Red Stag Lemonade This frozen and refreshing drink is made of Frozen Lemonade with Red Stag Black Cherry Bourbon for $14. It’s been around for a while, and it’s a classic American frozen drink available at Fife & Drum Tavern! Learn more about the Frozen Red Stag Lemonade Italy Another restaurant offering a to-go drink menu is Tutto Gusto Wine Cellar in the Italy Pavilion! Here you can grab the Italian Margarita for $17. Tutto Gusto Italian Margarita The Italian cocktail is made with Limoncello, Tequila, and fresh lime juice, and there are a plethora of options on the to-go menu! Check out more on the Tutto Gusto To-Go Menu Germany Did you even visit the Germany pavilion if you didn’t have a sip of beer?! Luckily, you can try the Schöfferhofer Pink Grapefruit Hefeweizen. Schöfferhofer Pink Grapefruit Hefeweizen Not only can you grab it at Sommerfest, but you can grab it at the table-service location in the pavilion, Biergarten Restaurant. You can get a glass of it for $9.50! Here’s what we think about the Grapefruit Hefeweizen China This next drink is for the coffee-lovers out there! In the China pavilion, you can grab the exclusive drink called Tipsy Ducks in Love. Tipsy Ducks in Love The drink available at Joy of Tea is made with Bourbon Whiskey, Coffee, Black Tea, Cream, and Chocolate Syrup. Weird name, but trust us, it’s good! This bourbon-y, chocolatey, drink is $13. Check out our review of Tipsy Ducks in Love Norway We’ve got ANOTHER boozy coffee drink on the list as well! Over at Kringla Bakeri og Cafe, you can grab the Viking Coffee while you snatch a Kringla pretzel or school bread. Viking Coffee For $13, the drink is made of Baileys Irish cream and Kamora Coffee Liqueur. It’s a perfect morning pick-me-up! Read more about Kringla Bakeri og Cafe! Mexico La Cava del Tequila is one of the most famous places to grab a drink in Disney World, and you can’t really go wrong with any margarita you pick! (If you notice we didn’t start our trek around World Showcase with Mexico, this is why. Tequila is a closer, friends. We’ve started in Mexico and regretted it before!) Diablo from La Cava del Tequila At La Cava, the margaritas are in the price range of $16-$23, and we couldn’t choose just one to put on the list! (OK, OK, fine. Twist our arm. Avocado Margarita. It’s sweet, tangy, creamy and oddly delicious!) Here’s how La Cava del Tequila celebrated National Margarita Day! Just like that, we drank our way around the world! The grand total for these 11 drinks is a whopping $138.25! Disney World alcoholic drinks are on the pricier side, but considering all you are getting, the price tag for all 11 countries is not too bad. Note we skipped the Refreshment Outpost/Africa chunk of World Showcase but if you want to include it, by all means! So we’ve seen all the totals for eating around the world on a budget, eating around the world on an unlimited budget, and drinking around the world. But what if you want to combine some of these lists? Well, if you are eating around the world on a budget AND you want to drink around the world, it’ll cost you about $198.10. That’s a lot for under $200! If you are eating on an unlimited budget and drinking around the world, you can plan to spend about $253.77. We hope this look at prices helps you plan your budget to eat and/or drink around the world on your next visit to EPCOT! Drinking Around the World in EPCOT (With and Without Alcohol)!

Things don’t always go according to plan at Disney World, especially with attractions. Remember Plant Donald? Sometimes, special effects don’t work properly, sometimes animatronics break down, sometimes other issues cause rides to be evacuated. It happens. And today, we experienced some ride technical issues at Magic Kingdom. We were hanging out in Tomorrowland, watching the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover and noticed it hadn’t moved in about 10 minutes. It’s not moving Then we noticed that the PeopleMover was being evacuated — again. This seems to happen every once in a while with this particular ride. PeopleMover being evacuated today We don’t have any further details as to why it’s being evacuated, though. But Cast Members were escorting guests off the vehicle. For now, the attraction is currently listed as temporarily closed on the My Disney Experience app. ©Disney We’ll keep an eye on the PeopleMover situation and let you know when it’s back up.

We are HUGE fans of Disney’s food (obvs), so after a few days of funnel cakes, plastic cheese, and Gideon’s cookies, we’re ready for a little bit of exercise to balance out all the calories. Plus, the holidays are basically here and that means even MORE chowing down! Disney food is the best exercise motivator We’re gonna need some exercise to keep healthy, right?! What better way to make working out fun than with Disney exercise videos? We found eight of the best free workouts you can do for free from home, each with a Disney theme! We’ll take a look at Disney-themed HIIT workouts, Yoga sessions, dance workouts, and more! HIIT Workouts Let’s start out with a full-body HIIT (high intensity interval training) workout! In a HIIT workout, there’s a series of intense cardio bursts with less intense resting periods in between. Since it’s high intensity, experts recommend easing into the workouts, with just one or two a week and plenty of rest in between! ©ThatDisneyGirl This workout is from That Disney Girl on YouTube, and it has four intervals, each set to a different Disney song. That Disney Girl has several more workout videos, so if you like that one, you can check out her YouTube page for more! Click Here to See the Whole Disney HIIT Workout on YouTube! Disney Dance Workouts If you’re not really a fan of cut-and-dry exercise videos, dancing workouts can be a great way to sneak it some great exercise while still making it really fun! ©Up to the BEat Fitness The next workout is a Disney Dance Workout by Up to the BEat Fit. It’s family-friendly and combines cardio-dancing with some remixed Disney songs! This video reminded us a little of Disney-themed Zumba, so if you like that kind of dance exercise, we think you’ll love this Disney version. Check Out the Disney Dance Workout On Youtube Here! We’ve got a couple more Disney dance exercises for ya! This next one is Mulan-themed. Anyone else think that Mulan would make the BEST personal trainer? ©Kyra Pro This video is by Kyra Pro, who has several Disney dance workouts on her page. The workout is short — just 11 minutes long — so you can definitely fit it into your busy day! Click Here to Watch the Mulan-Themed Disney Dance Workout! The next Disney dance workout we found just makes so much sense: a High School Musical Dance Workout! ©Erika Collins Fitness This workout features songs from the different High School Musical movies with dance moves you can copy from home. It’s by Erika Collins Fitness. Like the other dance workouts, it’s less than 20 minutes long, which is great for a short exercise break in your day or to start your morning! Watch the High School Musical Dance Workout on Youtube Here! We’re heading back to Kyra Pro’s page for the last workout in this section (seriously, she has a ton of Disney-themed workouts). It’s the Disney Princess Dance workout, which has cardio exercises to Disney princess songs! You’ll dance to music from Princess and the Frog, Moana, and Beauty and the Beast while you burn those calories! Check Out the Disney Princess Dance Workout Here! There were plenty of Disney dance exercises available, but let’s check out some other kinds of workout videos available for free on YouTube! Yoga Workouts After any workout, the best thing for your body is to stretch really well. For the perfect cool-down, we found this full-body yoga session that’s set to Disney music. ©Kyra Pro If you can’t do all the yoga moves perfectly, it’s totally fine! (Take it from a very non-flexible yoga enthusiast.) Just do the best you can, because any stretching is great for your body. This 13-minute yoga session is by Kyra Pro, the same girl who had the Mulan-themed dance workout! Click Here to See the Disney Full Body Yoga Workout A good yoga session can be really zen and peaceful, but what if your house is full of not-super-quiet kids? Family Workouts If you’re trying to fit in a workout with a lot of little ones around your house, why not invite them to join in? There are a lot of different family Disney workouts on the Disney Family YouTube page, like this one with an Incredibles theme. ©Disney Family The workout is designed to be great for adults and kids to do together, and it has clips from the movie interspersed throughout. Another plus is that it’s just 10 minutes, so you probably won’t lose too many short attention spans along the way! Watch the Disney Family Workout With an Incredibles Theme Here! The Disney Family page has a lot of family-friendly workouts, like ones themed to Moana, The Lion King, The Jungle Book, and more! Core Workouts The YouTuber blogilates has several Disney princess workouts, and one of our favorites is this one called “Ariel’s Abs,” designed to give you mermaid-level abs! ©Blogilates You’ll do several different ab workouts based on where the pointer lands on the wheel of Little Mermaid-themed exercises. If you love that workout, you can also check out her Belle’s Beast Mode Total Body Workout video! See the Disney Princess Abs Workout on YouTube Here! Now you’re all set to get moving, Disney style! Remember to drink lots of water and stretch really well after your workout. And once you’re finished, check back here to find out which delicious Disney snack you should snag for your reward.

There are so many great holiday treats to try in Disney World right now! Holiday Statues in Disney Springs We’ve been hitting the parks and resorts to check out the new and returning sweet and savory options for the holiday season, and we love having so many treats to choose from! In Disney Springs alone, there are so many snacks to check out. Today, we made our way to AristoCrepes to enjoy a returning treat. Over at the AristoCrepes stand in Disney Springs, you can find the Cherries Jubilee Bubble Waffle once again! Aristocrepes It’s a bubble waffle filled with scoops of vanilla ice cream, cherries jubilee filling, praline pieces, and whipped cream. Cherry Jubilee Bubble Waffle The sign doesn’t actually say praline pieces this year, but our waffle had them. Cherries Jubilee Bubble Waffle Doesn’t this thing just scream “holiday season?!” Last year, we really enjoyed this dish. Could the treat live up to the hype yet again? It looks pretty amazing. The short answer: Yes. Yes it can. This waffle is fantastic, with sweetness coming from the ice cream that is balanced out by a delicious tartness from the cherries — it’s got it all. And the praline pieces on top provided the perfect crunch, which we think is a great texture contrast to the rest of the dish. We love those praline pieces The waffle is served warm, so that ice cream melts pretty fast. But it doesn’t really matter, because it’s so delicious — you’ll probably want to eat this treat fast anyway. And the portion is pretty decent, and big enough to share in our opinion. A tasty bite Basically, it’s a holiday explosion on top of a delicious waffle — not much to really complain out! And it does feel a bit like an explosion (in a good way), with toppings more spread out than what we saw last year. If you want to try this one out, it’ll cost you $8.99. Make sure to head to Disney Springs to try it between now and December 30th. In the meantime, stay tuned to DFB for all the holiday snack reviews!

It’s no secret that we love The Polite Pig. The Polite Pig at Disney Springs! In fact, our love affair with Polite Pig starts before we even enter the building. The enticing fragrance of smoked meat lures us in every time. We’re not just in love with the smoked meats here, but Polite Pig serves up some delicious drinks and sides! And now, The Polite Pig has announced its newest seasonal beer, and it sounds delicious! Outdoor Seating and Bar Polite Pig sometimes provides unique brews from its sister establishment in Orlando, the Ravenous Pig Brewery. And is a great place to try to craft beers you won’t find anywhere else! The newest seasonal brew is Boxcar Brown, which is described as a velvety, rich, oatmeal brown ale. ©@thepolitepig Instagram A brew of this type should have some hints of oatmeal, traces of coffee, some vanilla, and possibly caramel notes. It should be smooth and velvety. This seems like the perfect beer to have a fall day. It’s available now at the Disney Springs location. And if we spot any other new seasonal updates coming to Disney World, we’ll be sure to let you know!

What better way to celebrate the most wonderful time of the year than being immersed in a wonderland filled with holiday cheer — that wonderland being Disney Springs, of course! Today is the official kick-off to celebrating the holidays and there’s nothing quite like shopping and dining with friends and family when you’re surrounded by sparkling décor.http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/DisneyParks/~4/YqibhM6-w-IView the full article

It’s the holiday season in Disney World, which means TONS of delicious snacks have arrived! Holidays!!! We’ve got everything from super sweet treats to some delicious savory dishes, and we’ve been all over the parks and resorts already to try a bunch of new offerings. Today, we made our way to Disney Springs to sip on a holiday milkshake! Recently, we stopped by D-Luxe Burger in Disney Springs to try out the “Oh Deer” Cookie Shake (isn’t that the cutest name?!). D-Luxe Burger It’s made with vanilla gelato, hazelnut liqueur, cinnamon syrup, whipped cream, and a dusting of cinnamon and sugar. On top, there’s supposed to be a deer-shaped ginger cookie garnish (hence the “oh deer” name). You can get one for $16. Oh Deer Cookie Shake When we first looked at it, we immediately felt like saying “oh dear” because there was no deer-shaped cookie! The deer cookies hadn’t arrived when we ordered our shake, so we got a star shaped one instead. Still yummy Other than the missing deer, we thought the shake was very tasty! It wasn’t aggressively sweet, because the cinnamon and ginger flavors balanced things out nicely. There was a bit of spice (holiday spice, not like hot spice), which we really enjoyed. Very tasty! We couldn’t really taste the booze in this shake, so if that’s an important part of this treat to you then you might be a little disappointed on that front. So we were sort-of missing two things: a boozy flavor and (for us at least) the deer cookie. But even without those things, the shake was good! If you’re an adult who wants a fun holiday treat that’s not incredibly sweet (and you don’t really care about getting a strong boozy flavor) we think you’ll like this. While you’re at D-Luxe, you can also pick up the Holiday Turkey Burger, a returning option from previous years. This burger features a Turkey patty, butternut squash risotto cake, bacon-cranberry jam, lettuce, and tomato. Click here to see our FULL review.

There are a lot of new things in Disney World right now, with tons of holiday decorations, treats, and merchandise. Disney says it’s the holiday season! But even with all the new things, some attractions, shops, and hotels will be unavailable in the next few days. Let’s take a look at the refurbishments around Disney World so that you know what’s going to be closed when you visit. We’ll start out in the Magic Kingdom. Magic Kingdom Mickey’s PhilharMagic is a popular attraction where guests can watch a 3D show that features a lot of classic Disney movies. Imagineers have been hard at work adding a new scene inspired by Disney’s Coco. ©Disney || New Coco Scene Coming to Philharmagic PhilharMagic will still be closed for most of next week as the final touches are made, but this attraction will reopen on Friday, November 12th! PhilharMagic Construction Starting then, you can head in to see the new scene along with all the old favorites. The Walt Disney World Railroad is also still closed in the Magic Kingdom. Walt Disney World Railroad Construction over in Tomorrowland on the upcoming TRON Lightcycle Run roller coaster has interrupted the train tracks there. So we probably won’t see the railroad reopen until TRON construction is finished. Fantasyland Station Disney hasn’t released an opening date for TRON yet, but we’ll keep you updated with any news we hear about! TRON construction — Late October 2021 In the meantime, make sure to check out the Jungle Cruise in Magic Kingdom, because it recently got its holiday makeover! Jungle all the way! It’s now known as the Jingle Cruise, and there are more holiday puns where that came from to match the theme. EPCOT Over in EPCOT, the only closure you’ll see at the moment is Souk-al-Magreb, which is the gift shop in the Morocco pavilion of World Showcase. It’ll open this week! This shop is scheduled to reopen on Saturday, November 6th. Disney’s Animal Kingdom In Animal Kingdom, Kali River Rapids is still closed for refurbishments. Kali River Rapids Closure This water attraction will be closed for the rest of the year, so it’s not scheduled to reopen until January 1st, 2022. Disney World Hotels Most of the Disney World hotels are officially open now! The only one left is Disney’s All-Star Sports Resort. All-Star Sports Entrance The value resort was supposed to open later this year, but its reopening has been delayed indefinitely due to more refurbishments inside the hotel. All-Star Sports Resort The Port Orleans – Riverside hotel reopened recently, and most of the dining options here reopened as well. Port Orleans – Riverside The only restaurant we’re still missing is the Boatwright’s Dining Hall. A Cast Member we spoke to said that the dining hall should reopen sometime in December, so we’ll make sure to keep you posted on more news with that. Boatwright’s at Port Orleans Riverside Finally, the Big Pine Key building at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort has begun its transformation into Disney Vacation Club villas. Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort The rooms will become 200 resort studios, which are scheduled to open in the summer of 2022. Living Room Area ©Disney That’s all for our update on what’s going to be closed in Disney World next week! Make sure to keep following DFB for the latest news on Disney World happenings.

The holiday season has begun in Disney World, and we’ve been having fun spotting new holiday decorations. Holidays!!! With LOTS of new treats coming to Disney World for the holiday season, we can’t wait to try all kinds of new seasonal goodies. Today we found a new treat and not only is it beautiful — it’s also delicious. We’re talking ice cream, peppermint, AND candy…want to know more? In Disney Springs we found this new holiday treat and we could NOT walk away without tasting it. Behold — the Peppermint Back Nachos, made with waffle cone chips, topped with chocolate and peppermint swirled soft serve, M&M’S, whipped cream, chocolate sauce, and candy cane sprinkles for $9.29. It’s not in the description, but we also got a piece of peppermint bark! Peppermint Bark Nachos Just LOOK AT THEM — so festive, so pretty! We found this limited time treat at Marketplace Snacks in Disney Springs. They’re so pretty! If we had to describe Peppermint Bark Nachos in one word, it would be “Perfection.” Could these BE any more beautiful? This holiday treat has a nice, strong peppermint flavor. We couldn’t taste a lot of the chocolate, but that wasn’t a problem for us. We loved the crunch from the M&M’S and waffle cone bits and we enjoyed that pretty substantial piece of yummy peppermint bark! Closer look A simple AND delicious holiday snack is a win in our book. Could this be a contender for one of the top Disney World holiday snacks of 2021?! We think it’s possible! If you happen to be in Disney Springs we highly recommend trying the Peppermint Bark Nachos, unless you’re not a fan of peppermint and ice cream. If peppermint and ice cream aren’t your things, then you can try one of the many other holiday treats that are available! Keep reading DFB for more holiday Disney World treats and news.

It’s the holiday season in Disney World, and that means that there are tons of new treats to try! Holiday treats are back again! We’ve seen festive snacks in the parks already, but now it’s time to branch out and try some treats in Disney Springs. We’re heading to Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar to check out the holiday overlay and try some drinks and eats! First of all, can we just stop and admire the festive fun that is Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar? Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar The Christmas-y additions to this place are seriously over-the-top, but we don’t mind one bit. Outside, you can already spot TONS of tinsel and a few wreaths! Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar Once inside, you’ll spot how truly festive this lounge can get. Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar The ceiling is lined with elaborate tinsel… Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar …there are elves on the walls… Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar …wreaths are decked out with little airplanes… Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar …Christmas lights abound… Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar …and the corner booth is looking EXTRA inviting. Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar And there’s SO. MUCH. MORE. Make sure you look around when you stop by! Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar Here’s a peek at the holiday food offerings on the menu! Menu But let’s get sippin’! There are THREE drinks for the holiday bar. The first is the Yule Mule, a sip made with Bombay Sapphire, cranberry juice, rosemary simple syrup, lime juice, and ginger beer for $13. Yule Mule This was a basic but great drink! It would have been cool to have a little more holiday flavor, but if you like a mule then this one could be a good choice. Yule Mule Next, we tried out the Claus Mo made with Absolut Citron, Cointreau, lime juice, cranberry juice, and shimmer for $16. Claus Mo This one was basically a normal cosmo…but GLITTERY. It had a great balance of tartness and sweetness. If we wanted a tried and true classic, we would certainly go for this one again! Claus Mo Unfortunately, Jock’s was out of creme de menthe so we couldn’t try the third drink. But when the Elf Elixer does debut, it will be a mix of white creme de cacao, green creme de menthe, and half and half. We’ll be sure to review it as soon as we can! Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar And now it’s time to EAT! First on our list is the Venison Slider. Venison Slider This bad boy is made with venison sausage patties, arugula, tomato, and cranberry aïoli on house-made buns. You can order it for $14. Venison Slider These were tasty! It’s certainly a thicker piece of meat on the sliders. They have great texture and we loved the cranberry aioli on them. The holiday vibes were strong. Venison Slider Next up is the Fried Brussels Sprouts. Fried Brussels Sprouts They’re served with a bacon vinaigrette for $8. Fried Brussels Sprouts Nothing too fancy going on here! These were plain fried brussels sprouts. If you’re a brussels fan, you’ll like them. BUT, we definitely prefer the brussels sprouts nearby at Polite Pig. Fried Brussels Sprouts You’ll also find the Holiday Lights Deviled Eggs on the menu for a limited time. Holiday Lights Deviled Eggs They have colored deviled eggs with tobiko and shrimp. You can order this dish for $12. Holiday Lights Deviled Eggs This has been a favorite in years past! They’re not overly spicy but they have a great simple flavor and the shrimp add an awesome touch. Plus, the dish is presented VERY well. It’s certainly a staple at this holiday-themed bar. Holiday Lights Deviled Eggs Next up is the Ham and Brie Flatbread for $9. Ham and Brie Flatbread It’s made with shaved ham, brie cheese, pomegranate seeds, granny smith apples, apple vinaigrette, and watercress. Ham and Brie Flatbread Jock’s makes a great flatbread and this one was no different. We could’ve used a touch more brie, but otherwise, the flavors here were great! This might not be the most themed of the dishes, but it would go well with any of Jock’s cocktails. Ham and Brie Flatbread The Cookies and Milk consist of a variety of assorted cookies and coquito. Cookies and Milk You can purchase this holiday treat for $27. Cookies and Milk If you swap the coquito for milk, this dessert is $9. Cookies and Milk And this dessert is a BIG winner at Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar. We love how creative this dessert is and you’d be hardpressed to find something more Christmas-y than a plate of cookies and milk. Our favorite of the cookies was the frosted gingerbread one but all of them were tasty! Cookies and Milk And finally, let’s try the Lump of Coal Dessert! Lump of Coal Dessert It’s a cookies and cream ganache “coal” for $12. Look at the amazing presentation! Lump of Coal Dessert Ding, ding, ding! We have a winner! The presentation is show-stopping and the ganache goes so well with the icing for dipping. Maybe we WANT to end up on the naughty list so Santa brings us more of these! Lump of Coal Dessert That’s everything at Jock Lindsey’s Holiday Bar, head on over if the menu catches your eye. Stay tuned to DFB for more food reviews and holiday snacks throughout the season!
