Fall is finally here and with the changing season comes seasonal drinks. Jaleo This drink originates from Jaleo in Disney Spring’s 2021 winter drink menu. Although this drink comes from their winter menu, the color and taste of this drink screams fall to us. You’ll definitely want to give this a try. Thanks to Winemag.com, we have a recipe for one of Jaleo’s specialty drinks! Learn how to make a Sherry Chamber #1! Ingredients For the Beer and Pear Syrup: 2 ripe pears 3 cups wheat beer 1 1/2 cups brown sugar For the Cocktail: 1 1/2 ounces of amontillado Sherry (this can be substituted for a dry Marsala wine) 3/4 ounce of fino Sherry (you can substitute this for white wine, brandy, or dry vermouth) 1 ounce Beer and Pear syrup 4 dashes Peychaud’s Bitters (this can be substituted for old fashioned bitters) Photo by Tom Arena on Winemag.com Directions To make the syrup: Cut the pears into pieces and puree in a food processor with 1/4 cup of your wheat beer. Pour the mixture into a saucepan, add the rest of the wheat beer, and brown sugar. Cook over high heat while stirring to dissolve the sugar for 10 minutes. Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain the syrup through a fine-mesh strainer into a lidded container and allow it to drip slowly. To make the cocktail: Combine both Sherrys, the Beer and Pear syrup, and Peychaud’s Bitters in a mixing glass with ice. Stir to chill, strain into a chilled coupe glass, and enjoy! With this drink, you’ll get right into the fall (or winter) mindset so be sure to give it a try. Looking to get more into the fall season? Click here for some Halloween-themed recipes!

CELEBRATION, Fla. – In early 2023, Disney Cruise Line will return to top tropical destinations in the Bahamas – including Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay – as well as the Caribbean and the Mexican Riviera, delighting guests of all ages with one-of-a-kind vacations at sea. A variety of enchanting itineraries will set sail coast-to-coast from U.S. home ports including Miami and Port Canaveral, Florida; New Orleans; Galveston, Texas; and San Diego. Bookings open to the public on Oct. 21, 2021. More details can be found on the Ports and Itineraries for 2023 page of disneycruise.com. Vacations to the Bahamas and Caribbean from Florida Disney Cruise Line will create even more fun in the sun like never before with an array of departures from the Sunshine State in early 2023, visiting tropical destinations throughout the Bahamas and Caribbean. Two ships will sail from Port Canaveral near Orlando, Florida, and a third ship will depart from Miami. Every cruise from Florida includes a visit to Disney’s private island oasis, Castaway Cay. Departing from Port Canaveral, the Disney Wish will sail into 2023 with three- and four-night voyages to Nassau, Bahamas and Castaway Cay. Cruises aboard Disney’s newest ship combine enchanting new entertainment and storytelling, with the unparalleled service and magical moments that guests love when sailing with Disney. Also from Port Canaveral, the Disney Fantasy will begin the year with seven-night sailings to several favorite destinations in the Eastern and Western Caribbean. Plus, one unique eight-night sailing includes two days in beautiful Bermuda, where guests can sunbathe on the island’s pristine pink sand beaches, enjoy exhilarating water sports or explore the island’s spectacular underground Crystal Caves. From Miami, the Disney Dream will embark on an assortment of four- and five-night cruises to locales including Grand Cayman, Nassau, Castaway Cay and Cozumel, Mexico. Even more private island enjoyment is on deck with one special five-night cruise that includes two stops at Castaway Cay. On all Florida departures, guests can delight in a voyage that provides something for every member of the family, combining the adventure and relaxation of tropical destinations, the ease and indulgence of an ocean cruise, and the world-class entertainment and service of a Disney vacation. Tropical Escapes from Texas and New Orleans In January and February, the Disney Magic will sail from Galveston, Texas, on a variety of four-, five-, six- and seven-night itineraries to the Bahamas and Western Caribbean. Tropical ports of call on these sailings include Grand Cayman as well as Cozumel and Progreso, Mexico. In February and March, the Disney Magic is “going down the bayou” for the first time during a debut season in New Orleans. Departing from the heart of the The Big Easy, along the mighty Mississippi River, the four-, five- and six-night sailings will call on the tropical destinations of Grand Cayman and Cozumel. Before or after their Disney cruise, guests can venture into the Crescent City to savor the distinct flavors of famous New Orleans cuisine, revel in the sweet melodies of world-renowned jazz music and recognize the iconic sights and sounds that inspired the beloved animated film “The Princess and the Frog.” All early 2023 Disney Magic voyages include two or three days at sea to enjoy the unlimited fun, entertainment, relaxation and memories onboard. Baja Peninsula Getaways from San Diego The Disney Wonder will return to the West Coast, sailing from San Diego in April and May.

We’re at Disney World every single day, so we have pretty much reached the level of pros at Disney World. Hello, Disney World! And there are certain things that we’ve learned we simply cannot do without at the parks. These are things that make our days more efficient AND enjoyable, and make our days at Disney World a LOT easier! So we decided to share what we always take with us so that you can consider bringing them along when you’re at the parks! Mask Chain Mask chains are AMAZING and once we started bringing them to the parks, we realized just how handy they can be. You can now remove your masks in Disney World when outdoors or while stationary and eating or drinking. This means a lot of popping that mask on. Then off. Then on over. And over. You’ll want an easy on/off solution. If you’ve got a mask chain, you can just easily slip your mask off to hang around your neck and not have to worry about where to stash it. Mask chains And this keeps you from losing your mask, too, because it will always be hanging on your neck when you take it off. Not to mention, it helps keep your mask clean if you’re not putting it down on sticky tables or dusty benches. As clean as Disney is, this is still something we wear on our face so we want it to be as clean as possible! Trust us — this is a MUST accessory. Got younger kids? This is borderline a MUST to help them not lose their masks! And you can even get them at Disney World now! Learn More About Where To Get Mask Chains at Disney World Mobile Phone Chargers We recommend having a backup battery option for your phone in the parks. Fuel Rods are great, in theory. These are stationed around the parks at kiosks and, once you pay the $30 fee, you can exchange them as often as you like for a fully charged one. The problem is you never know what you’re gonna get with an exchange. We often get duds with no charge that are, well, useless! These babies are expensive! You can find mobile chargers pretty much everywhere now, too — from the little lipstick-case ones to bigger ones that can charge your phone MANY times before needing recharging themselves! The best part — they’re REALLY affordable (compared to FuelRods) and last seemingly forever! Here’s How To Charge Your Phone at Disney World Refillable Water Bottles Hydration is super important in Florida heat and humidity. Yes, we always advocate taking advantage of free water at Disney World fast food locations, but you can also get free water and NOT wait in line with it if you carry a water bottle with you! There are water refilling stations popping up all over the parks and there’s rarely a line to use any of them! Or use that free water to refill your water bottle! You can roll it up! And when it comes to the kinds of water bottles we prefer? We really like the collapsible ones because they’re easy to just shove in your bag when they’re empty! But whatever your preference, you’re sure to find a Disney water bottle to make you happy! There are so many good things about this tip: proper hydration for overall health, saving money by not buying bottled water or soda, and saving the planet by minimizing single-use plastic. Now, don’t you feel like a good human for doing all of these responsible things? Yeah, us too! See Disney’s New Collection That Will Change How You Handle Park Days! Water Enhancers While we’re on the topic of hydration, if you are a little picky about how that water tastes, you can always bring flavored water enhancers along to give your water a little boost in flavor. It’s important to stay hydrated! We’re talking the little squirt bottles of flavors for your water or the powdered sticks. You can even get some that have additional vitamins or electrolytes so that you’re getting even more health benefits than from just drinking water alone! Seriously, the kinds with electrolytes are a lifesaver in the summer when it’s just SO HOT. So treat yo’self and grab some to stash in your bag for a little extra zip in your hydration routine! Check Out the Makeover that Water Fountains at Disney World Are Getting Small First Aid Kit Accidents happen, blisters form, headaches appear (especially if you didn’t use our tip above about proper hydration!) — and these things will happen randomly, even when you’re at Disney parks. Sure, you could always head to the First Aid Center in any of the parks, but if you just want to fix the problem and be on with your day, you need an on-hand solution. So we always carry a small first aid kit with us that includes Band-aids, moleskin, Tylenol, heartburn medication, and more! Hopefully, you won’t need too many of these on your next Disney World vacation! Trust us, this way you don’t have to walk across a park with a skinned knee and then have to wait to get a Band-Aid. Can You Survive Disney World Without These Items? Rain Gear There are some things we ALWAYS mention because they’re so important, and rain gear is one of those things that you will ALWAYS need in Florida. The weather can be very random. It could be bright and sunny one minute and then pouring rain on you the next minute. And here’s the thing — it will LIKELY rain AT LEAST ONCE on your Disney World vacation. (Sure there are exceptions to the rule, but, in general, plan for at least SOME rain!) Poncho weather! So be prepared for rain by having the appropriate rain gear on hand, whether that be some ponchos you purchased at the Dollar Store or a raincoat that rolls up easily in your day bag, you will be happy you have it once the rain starts. Disney does sell ponchos, rain jackets, and umbrellas and they’re happy to help you out with your water-resistant needs, but you will pay a pretty penny for them. Spending over 10 bucks on a sheet of plastic is not the most magical feeling, so we recommend preparing ahead of time! Why not save that money for a Dole Whip and bring your own poncho from home? We Wore a Disney World Rain Poncho on a Stormy Day. Here’s What Happened. Small Sewing Kit Okay, so maybe you don’t want to think about repairing clothes on vacation, but your clothes don’t care. You might lose a button or bust a seam (and yes, it’s happened TO US) or have a clothing emergency that requires an immediate fix (or at least a temporary fix until you can get to something more permanent). That’s why a small sewing kit is always handy to put in your day bag. ©Amazon So when that button falls off or you rip a seam, you can fix it ON THE SPOT without having to miss any precious vacation time. We recommend you keep in your room so you can make attend to those wardrobe emergencies at the end of your day. Some travel sets are tiny enough — just a few pre-threaded needles and a button or two — that you can toss it in your bag! But we do recommend at least keeping some safety pins on hand to help “keep things together” in case a clothing disaster does strike. Here’s The Ultimate Packing List Of Tried and True Gear For Disney World– Tested by the PROS! Tide Pen Speaking of wardrobe emergencies, have you ever been at Disney World munching on a snack when part of that snack drips down your shirt and leaves a huge stain? Because it TOTALLY happens a lot. Especially to kids. And us. Mostly us. That’s where having a Tide Pen on hand comes in handy. Because you can remove that stain quickly before it sets and not miss a beat. ©Amazon Seriously, we always pack one in our bag because stains will happen when you’re eating all that great messy Disney food. Be prepared. Check Out This MESSY Peppermint Churro from Disney World! Sunscreen Florida is The Sunshine State, and that means that, although it does rain a lot, the sun is also out a lot. But even on cloudy days, you can still risk a sunburn if you’re outside a lot like you would be at Disney World. So sunscreen is essential, even if you think you don’t burn easily (because Florida might just surprise you). Sunscreen Samples We even recommend keeping a small bottle in your park day bag because you will need to reapply it, especially if you end up getting drenched on a water ride (Kali River Rapids, we’re looking at you). No one wants to look red and blotchy in their MemoryMaker Photos, or feel that itchy sensitivity that comes with a sunburn. We’re here for you to help you avoid this mistake, so take our word for it and dab some on. Your skin and your dermatologist will thank you! Here’s Where You May Get Free Sunscreen at Disney World! Lens Wipes Do you wear glasses (or sunglasses)? Do you have a smartphone? Do you have an additional camera? If so, lens wipes are your new best friend. Your glasses will get dirty. Your smartphone will get fingerprints all over it and your camera lens will need to be cleaned from time to time. So bring Lens Wipes in your day bag. ©Amazon It might seem like a small thing, but when you need it, you’ll be grateful you brought it. We use them all of the time on our phones and cameras, and of course, on our sunglasses, as we’re constantly putting them on and pulling them off as we go in and out of shops and attractions. And if you followed our advice and are applying lots of sunscreen, you know a spritz of sunscreen on glasses is basically impossible to remove without heavy artillery! Check Out This Easy Disney World Packing Tip Slip Shorts Okay, skirt or dress-wearing crew — this is a tip for you. If you’re wearing skirts or dresses to Disney World, invest in a pair of slip shorts. These can be special slip shorts designed to be worn under dresses, or even just some bicycle shorts that are comfy. If you ever wore or knew someone as a toddler in a skirt, they likely had shorts or bloomers on underneath. Same principle but the main objective here is comfort. This, but more discreet! We promise this will make you SO much more comfortable and prevent that thigh friction that happens, especially in hotter weather. These are not really the same as shapewear like Spanx. If you have the willpower to wear that in the parks all day, snaps to you, but these are much thinner and softer. The dreaded “chub rub” happens to most humans. If you were blessed with petite thighs that don’t touch, kudos to you! But for the other 99% of us, this is a preventative measure to save that tender skin from screaming at you at the end of the day! This extra layer also helps as you get in and out of attraction vehicles (cough…Space Mountain!) and you won’t have to worry about your skirt or dress flying up in some random breeze because you’re covered — literally! The Ultimate Disney World Packing List for 2021 We’re in the parks every day, all day, and we’ve tried countless supplies, gadgets, and gear over the years, so we’ve learned a thing or two when it comes to packing the ultimate Disney parks essentials. These are the secret weapons we never leave home without! We hope this helps you come up with your own park essentials list, or maybe it will help remind you to update your packing list before you return to the parks!

Sometimes the best place to find a delicious snack in Disney World isn’t in the parks at all. Disney Springs We’re heading into Disney Springs today because one popular location has THREE new specialties. Two of the treats are perfect for the upcoming sweater weather (which is optimistic in Florida), but one of them is definitely holding onto summer. Let’s check out the new treats! We’re going to Vivoli il Gelato in Disney Springs, which is known for Italian treats like biscotti, sorbet, and — of course — gelato! Vivoli il Gelato This restaurant has several new specialty items on their menu, and we’re giving a few of them a try! Vivoli consistently cranks out new treats here, so there’s usually always something exciting to try! Vivoli il Gelato Menu We’ll start with the new summer-y treat that we found, which is the Mimosa Sorbet. This one isn’t on the seasonal specials menu because, like we said, it’s not very fall-y. But that didn’t make it any less delicious! Mimosa Sorbet The sorbet is made with Terra Di Baco Prosecco and orange flavors, and there’s a little candy orange slice on top for the garnish. We thought it was SO good! The texture was creamy but also light. It’s a super refreshing flavor (great for a hot day), and the Prosecco comes through without overwhelming it too much. Mimosa Sorbet We’ve had Prosecco sorbets that tasted almost dry because of the flavoring, but this one was just creamy and delicious. You will need to show ID in order to buy it (and obv be 21+, so FYI!). Mimosa Sorbet from Vivoli il Gelato Like most sorbet on a warm day, it melts fast! But it’s just as tasty when it’s melted. It costs $7.75, which we thought was a bit high for a small portion. But if you’re a big Prosecco or sorbet fan, we don’t think you’ll be disappointed in this treat! If you’re looking for something more seasonal, though, we tried a couple of fall treats as well. Vivoli is no stranger to pumpkiny ice cream, waffles, and more. Last year, we had the pumpkin waffle sliders here. This year, we went with a classic — the Pumpkin Waffle. Pumpkin Waffle This treat is a Pumpkin Waffle topped with vanilla gelato, whipped cream, and brown sugar. You’re probably not ordering this for breakfast though! We thought it was a very indulgent treat, especially since it’s such a huge portion! You get a full waffle, and they’re NOT skimping on the gelato here. Here’s a closer look The vanilla gelato is very sweet, and we think it balances out the fall spices in the waffle very nicely. The brown sugar on top takes the gelato’s sweetness to the next level, but if you think you can handle even more sugar, they give you maple syrup on the side! We thought the waffle tasted more like a spiced cake than pumpkin, so we were a little disappointed that there wasn’t more prominent pumpkin flavor. Sugar topped ice cream? Yes, please! In general, we thought the treat was super tasty, very sweet, and definitely share-able. You get the whole thing for $12. FYI — Vivoli turns off their waffle makers at noon, so if you’re coming later in the day you might have to wait for a bit so they can fire those up again. We waited about 20 minutes for our waffle. Pumpkin Waffle The final treat we tried was the Mocha Caramel Bombolato. This is a warm Italian donut, filled with coffee gelato, chocolate chips, and caramel sauce. WHAT. Mocha Caramel Bombolato This treat was definitely our favorite of the bunch. GELATO in a DONUT is rarely a bad thing ’round these parts. They usually have their stuffed donut “bombolatos” on the menu in varying flavors. The only way to make that better is to add coffee. Oh wait. They did! If you don’t like coffee, this is probably not the treat for you, but we were absolutely in heaven with this donut. It’s gelato…inside a donut. The donut is served hot, and the gelato was still very cold inside. We thought the donut wasn’t too sweet by itself, which was nice because there were so many sugary treats stuffed inside. The donut was also a little dry, but not for long, since the gelato melted and soaked into it. We liked the texture of the chocolate to break up the smooth gelato, and the coffee gelato is very light and not too overpowering. The caramel component, honestly, gets lost in the mix. We really didn’t notice it much, but the flavors were still really great so we were OK with it! Here’s the inside Surprisingly, this treat didn’t make us feel overly stuffed. We thought a gelato-stuffed donut would have us rolling out of the Springs, but since the donut and ice cream were both light, it wasn’t too much. Our only complaint? We definitely needed more napkins! This treat gets MESSY, y’all. You can grab one at Vivoli il Gelato for $9.75. YUM Overall, we have decided that we’re definitely going back to Vivoli il Gelato soon! There are plenty of other gelato and sorbet flavors to try, plus more seasonal offerings on the menu.

Have you been on the newest Disney World ride, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure? Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure This adorable ride shrinks you down to the size of a rat so that Remy can show you around the kitchen!

But now you don’t even need to go to the parks to get the new items, because a lot of them have been released online. Check out all the new items here! We had to start with one of the coolest new items (albeit not the most practical souvenir): the Light-Up Chef Hat. ©Disney This hat has a chin strap to keep it on your head, and it lights up to show a Remy silhouette inside. There are five different functions for the light, but that’s not even all this hat does. ©Disney The top also pops open to reveal a little chef inside! ©Disney Like we said, the hat is maybe not the most practical Disney item (it’s almost a foot tall, for one thing), but it might be one of the coolest in this collection. You can buy it online for $39.99 now! Click Here to Buy the Light-Up Chef Hat For something a little more practical, we also found the Remy Mug and Spoon Set.

We’ve tried so many delicious eats and treats for Disney World’s 50th anniversary! So festive! There was a burger that looked like a toad, a hot dog topped with funnel cake, and even an ENTIRE pyramid made out of chocolate! But, even with all of festive food we’ve had, there is STILL more to try — can you believe it?! Come with us as we taste two new sweet treats in Magic Kingdom! Over at Cheshire Cafe in Fantasyland, there are two new slushies for the 5oth! Time to try some new slushies! The first is the All Mixed Up, which is a strawberry tea slushy topped with whipped cream and sprinkles. This looks so delicious! This drink reminded us of a strawberry Slurpee you can get from 7/Eleven — in a good way! There was a tiny hint of the tea flavor, but not a lot, and we honestly wish there would’ve been more. The color is beautiful! This slushy is pretty sweet, but it did still have a good balance. If you like strawberries, you’ll LOVE this because it’s jam packed with strawberry flavor! We think Cheshire Cat would enjoy this! Here’s a closer look: And, the whipped cream on both of the drinks was super fresh and fluffy, which was great! If you want to try either of these, just don’t expect it to be a tea-forward slushy, the tea flavor is subtle. You can get them both for $5.99 over at Cheshire Cafe.

The Disney World website can be a valuable tool for planning your vacation. Make sure to use the website when planning your trip! Here you’ll find park hours, showtimes, restaurant menus, and so much more. The site also keeps a running list of attractions that are under refurbishment, so that you know what will be closed during your trip. And today, we noticed a mysterious closure coming soon…but it’s not listed on the refurb calendar! According to the Disney World website, there are no operating hours listed for the Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade starting on November 27th, 2021. ©Disney This arcade recently reopened as a free activity after being closed since March 2020. It was an original opening day attraction at Magic Kingdom but doesn’t get quite as much use these days with so many other options in the park. Recently reopened for free! Frontierland Shootin’ Arcade isn’t listed on the refurbishment calendar for the dates of the closure, so it leaves us wondering what could be going on. Disney hasn’t shared any details, but when we chatted with a Cast Member online, they told us that it would be unavailable from November 27th-December 21st. (We can currently only see through December 10th on the online calendar.) What’s going on with this closure? We’ll make sure to keep checking the refurbishment calendar to see if it pops up, and we’ll be searching for other details about the closure, so stay tuned to DFB!

It’s starting to get just a little bit chillier outside, which means that we’re already thinking about the holidays. Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe in Disney World Don’t get mad at us — we know that Halloween hasn’t even arrived yet. But who doesn’t want to get a jump start on all the holiday shopping that we know is right around the corner? To help us out, Disney just released a bunch of NEW festive items online! Check out some of our favorites, which are available to buy now. First of all, we HAD to point out this amazing festive bucket hat, which says “Season’s Greetings” on the front — and the letters are made out of holiday treats! ©Disney Not sure who at Disney decided bucket hats are cool again, but we’re here for it! The top and brim have a plaid pattern. You can get the hat for $34.99 on shopDisney. Click Here to Buy the Holiday Bucket Hat We’ve all heard of the holiday tradition of getting new pajamas for Christmas Eve, and now your pup can join in on the fun! There’s a Pluto-themed plaid holiday shirt, made just for dogs! ©Disney And you can find matching pajamas on shopDisney as well so that everyone’s coordinated for the festive season. ©Disney Fido’s shirt will cost $26.99, and it’s available in sizes S to XL. If your dog is really spoiled, you can even personalize it and have their name embroidered on the shirt! Click Here to Buy the Pluto Flannel Shirt for Dogs Since we’re still in the spooky season right now, we had to include this set of Nightmare Before Christmas ornaments and a tree topper! Jack dressed as Sandy Claws can sit atop the tree, and other characters from the movie can hang around beneath him. ©Disney The ornaments all have Jack on one side and another character on the other. Characters include Oogie Boogie; Dr. Finkelstein; Santa Claus; Sally; Lock, Shock, & Barrel; The Mayor, and Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas logo. You can get the set for $49.99. Click Here to Buy the Nightmare Before Christmas Ornament and Tree Topper Set There are also plenty of other ornaments available now, including a bunch of new Sketchbook ornaments featuring Disney princesses. One of our favorites is this awesome Mulan ornament, featuring the warrior herself and her trusty dragon Mushu. ©Disney You can add it to your Disney ornaments collection for $24.99. Click Here to Buy the Mulan Ornament We love the other ornaments on this list, but our favorite has to be this Mickey Mouse and Friends Sketchbook Ornament, which has Mickey, Minnie, Pluto, and Goofy in a hot air balloon that’s shaped like Mickey’s gloves! ©Disney This adorable little ornament is $19.99. Maybe we love it because the hot air balloon reminds us of the Festival of Fantasy parade that used to run through the Magic Kingdom. Festival of Fantasy Parade We do miss those Disney World parades…but in the meantime, have you checked out the new 50th Anniversary cavalcade in Disney World? Click Here to Buy the Mickey Mouse and Friends Ornament The next new holiday item is more Disney ornaments, but these are a little different — they clip onto the tree instead of hanging! Tinker Bell sits atop the clip, so it’ll look like she’s sitting right on the tree branch. ©Disney There’s a “Naughty” and “Nice” version of Tinker Bell, and you can get them both for $24.99 now. (And if you have small kids or pets known for knocking ornaments off your tree, you’re probably like “Where have these been all my life!”.) Click Here to Buy the Tinker Bell Clip-On Ornaments To keep you nice and cozy during the holidays, we found this Mickey and Minnie Mouse Holiday Fleece Throw. One side has a festive pattern with snowflakes and Christmas trees… ©Disney …and the other is fuzzy white fleece fabric with an embroidered picture of Mickey and Minnie Mouse. ©Disney The throw is 50″ by 60″, and it costs $34.99 now. Click Here to Buy the Mickey and Minnie Mouse Fleece Throw Aaaaand we’re back to the ornaments. What can we say? We love a good Disney ornament. This one features WALL-E and E.V.E. from Disney Pixar’s WALL-E. ©Disney You can hang this adorable robot pair from your tree for $24.99. The ornament will also stand up on its own if you’d rather display it on a table or mantle. Click Here to Buy the WALL-E and E.V.E. Ornament We’ve already taken a look at a bunch of Disney-themed Christmas Sweaters, but we had to include one here. Did Christmas even happen if you don’t wear a ridiculous sweater? Luckily we found this Mickey and Friends Holiday Sweater, which features a bunch of Disney characters and holiday designs. ©Disney On it, you’ll find Mickey Mouse, Pluto, Donald, Goofy, and Chip & Dale (most in Christmas mug form!). It’s a knit sweater, but with the look and cut of the spirit jerseys that you’ll see all over Disney World. ©Disney Get ready for the cozy season with this sweater, which you can buy for $89.99. Click Here to Buy the Mickey and Friends Holiday Sweater And speaking of those spirit jerseys, there’s a Mickey Mouse Holiday Plaid Spirit Jersey (in case you didn’t want the sweater version). ©Disney The jersey has plaid fabric on the bottom and back of the sleeves, a Mickey-shaped cookie on the front, and “Season’s Greetings” written in holiday treats across the back. ©Disney There are sizes XS to XXL available now, for $74.99. Click Here to Buy the Holiday Plaid Spirit Jersey That should be enough to get you started on your holiday shopping, right?

Disney World Annual Passholders get discounts on some merchandise and food in the parks. Annual Pass But Disney just announced a BIG new discount for Annual Passholders! The bad news: It’s only going to last for a limited time. The good news: You DON’T have to be in Disney World to take advantage of this new deal.

No matter how much you plan, sometimes there can be hiccups during your Disney World trip. Rain in Disney You could get an unexpected storm roll through while you’re trying to enjoy the parks, your favorite ride could be down, or that piece of merchandise you really wanted could be sold out. Transportation can be another major issue, which is exactly what’s happening right now in Disney World! The Express Monorail to Magic Kingdom and the Resort Monorail lines are currently down in Disney World. Closed! The Express Monorail runs between Magic Kingdom and the Transportation and Ticket Center, while the Resort Monorail runs between Magic Kingdom, Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort, and Disney’s Contemporary Resort. Resort Hotel Monorail Line Entrance Cast Members could not give us any information on the situation, other than that both lines were closed and people were being told to use the ferry boat to go to and from the TTC and Magic Kingdom. Time to get on the ferry! We didn’t personally see any monorails stuck on the line, they were just sitting in the stations. But, the EPCOT Monorail line is up and running fine! Monorail is still going to EPCOT! If you need to get to or from one of the 3 nearby resorts and Magic Kingdom, you can use the Grand Floridian walkway or the Contemporary walkway. Grand Floridian Walkway We’ll update you as soon as either Monorail lines reopens, so stay tuned to DFB for news.

If you’re heading to Disney World soon, be prepared for 50th Anniversary merchandise all over the parks. Vault Collection Display There are a few different new collections, like the Celebration and Castle collections and the Vault collection. The Vault items are vintage-style souvenirs that celebrate Disney World’s past, and you can find all of that merchandise at a special display area in the Main Street Cinema. Today, while we were looking around at the sentimental souvenirs, we spotted a couple of NEW to us items! First up, we spotted a new pack of vintage Disney World postcards. Disney World Postcards Remember when sending postcards on vacation was a THING? Like great uncle George might send you a postcard from Niagra Falls or you might send grandma a postcard from Disney World! The pack comes with 10 replica postcards, featuring attractions from Disney World’s past. We spotted attractions like the Country Bear Jamboree, the Electrical Water Pageant, and the Main Street Electrical Parade! Plus the new hotness when it debuted in 1971, the Contemporary Resort and its eye-catching A-frame building. Vintage Postcards You can get the pack of 10 cards for $9.99. And you can also check out the other new item we found — a mug with old-style Disney characters on it! Some members of our team got PUMPED to see this cause it is basically straight out of our childhoods. How many of us had a mug like this growing up?? Disney World sold this same white plastic style mug with loads of different fun designs on it! New Mug This mug has a white background and the original Disney World logo, with Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Goofy, and Pluto walking around the sides. More friends It’s topped with a Mickey hat lid, which has a hole for a straw on the side. This would have been a tippy-top contender for best mug ever to have with a meal as a kid and now, you can give the next generation the same experience! (Or drink out of it yourself. That’s how we roll!) So Cute! You can get the mug for $22.99! We found both of these items at the Main Street Cinema in the Magic Kingdom with all the other merchandise from the Vault Collection.
