EPCOT’s transformation is making progress! We know, these lights are STUNNING! We’re getting EXCITED for the opening of Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind and Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, and we’re keeping an eye on the construction for the new Harmonious fireworks show. But we’re also checking up on smaller projects around the park — including the new Creations Shop! In case ya missed it, Creations Shop will be replacing Mouse Gear in the new World Celebration area. We’ve already shared a peek at the work being done there, and now, we’re seeing what progress has been made! Most recently, Imagineer Zach Riddley shared that the floor-to-ceiling glass walls for the shop have been installed. ©Zach Riddley via Instagram (@thezachriddley) He explains that the main goal for the store is “light and openness,” and these windows will contribute to that effect. But the Imagineering team had to use some creativity to make the spots where the glass meets the ground and ceiling “seamless,” creating the illusion that “the glass is emerging from the ground in one perfect, clean motion.” We think it looks pretty nifty! ©Zach Riddley via Instagram (@thezachriddley) Okay, so we’ve got some cool glass walls…but what else is goin’ on inside this store? Well, Zach recently shared the “translucent and color-changing” dichroic resin material fixtures, which will add a “dynamic feel” to the space… ©Zach Riddley via Instagram (@thezachriddley) …the “woven” interlocking panels for the ceiling… ©Zach Riddley via Instagram (@thezachriddley) …and paint samples for the exterior! It sure seems like the team’s been hard at work. ©Zach Riddley via Instagram (@thezachriddley) As a reminder, here’s what the shop will look like when it’s complete. It’s expected to open THIS summer, so we’ll be inside checkin’ it out for ourselves soon.

From our first drop on Tower of Terror to a life-sized Carnosaurus trying to eat us on Dinosaur, Disney has found more ways to freak us out than we would’ve originally expected. Tower of Terror For parents with younger children, traumatizing little ones through the power of Disney magic during a family vacation might not be part of the game plan. They may try to avoid scary-ish rides altogether, sticking with tamer rides that provide “a world of laughter” or “happy little thoughts.” But however hard you might try to protect your child from the darker side of Disney, there are some ride scares you might not be able to avoid — and some you may not have expected to scare younger ones, at all. Scary For Pre-K and Younger Riders Figment’s “Grand Finale” Journey Into Imagination With Figment in EPCOT is one of those rides we feel like we have to go on because…well…it’s Figment. He’s adorable and magical and featured on a good chunk of our EPCOT merch. Plus, there’s no height requirement for this ride — so even the tiny-tykes are allowed to join our purple dragon friend (and Nigel Channing, love him or leave him) into an imaginative journey through the senses lab. “One little spark…” The majority of the ride isn’t scary. Sometimes, it plays tricks on your eyes and ears with fun mirror and sound illusions; sometimes it plays tricks on your nose with bad smells (REALLY bad smells!). But the “freaky” part doesn’t happen until the end. Pew! After you ride through Figment’s upside-down blacklit funhouse, your vehicle will pull up to a screen. There, Nigel Channing will say something witty about the power of imagination, leading into Figment’s full-on jump-scare sentence — “Imagination is a BLAST!” What follows is a “blast” of air against your face as your thrown into darkness. It’s jarring for those who aren’t expecting it, and might be terrifying for those little ones who *really* aren’t expecting it. (not us. Totes not saying we ever…still…get scared at this part! ) ©Disney Immediately after, you’re treated to a happy and colorful finale. If the burst of air didn’t scare you, your ride vehicle is then led to Nigel Channing’s face plastered onto the moon. (The HORROR! ) The horror! If the little ones aren’t freaked out by this point, we’ll be freaked out for them. *Shudders* Figment’s ride has had some major changes over the years — check them out here! That Dreaded Anglerfish The Seas With Nemo And Friends is another EPCOT ride meant for guests of all ages. Your journey starts in a shell vehicle (a very similar design to the one you’ll see used over in Magic Kingdom for Under the Sea: Journey of The Little Mermaid), which leads you into “the big blue world.” (seriously…good luck getting that earworm of a song out of your head the rest of the day!) And you’ll have to find Nemo. Again. Don’t forget to say hi to the seagulls! (Mine!) Show scenes include a realm of jellyfish, the totally rad EAC, and — our personal favorite — Peach the starfish breaking the fourth wall by complaining about having to listen to “The Big Blue World” song on repeat. (Honestly, we can’t blame her.) ©Disney Toward the beginning of the ride, it’ll get real dark and spooky and you’ll come across an anglerfish animatronic chasing poor Marlin around. The anglerfish’s black light design causes his terrifying form to pop out against the dark, making his quick movements feel as if he could jump right out of the scene and into your shell vehicle. Swim faster, Marlin! (See how dark this scene is!!) It’s a cool effect, but for younger riders, this fish battle can be pretty freaky. A word of warning or an arm around your kiddo before the scene happens might be necessary. ©Disney And maybe a warning about Bruce and the gang wouldn’t hurt, either? (They’re not so much scary as a little bit creepy!) Wait, there’s more?! What else can you do after riding The Seas with Nemo and Friends? Click to find out! Marshmallow Sends You Plummeting To be fair, EPCOT’s predecessor of Frozen Ever After — Maelstrom — was much more terrifying for many guests. (Three-headed trolls? Nightmares, man.) Frozen Ever After is actually pretty chill. (Heh, see what we did there?) The ride focuses on the anniversary of the day Princess Anna saved Queen Elsa (although you don’t need to know the premise to enjoy the show scenes). Let’s go celebrate! Our favorite show scene is straight-up from the first Frozen movie — Elsa’s iconic “Let It Go” song. After your boat docks in front of her ice palace, Elsa “does the magic” and sends your boat shooting backward into the next show scene. (Which could scare younger kids as is, since Frozen Ever After isn’t classified to be a thrill ride.) Don’t worry — it’s not a real “drop,” more of a glide backward. Showstopper! When the boat starts moving forward again, you’re greeted by a rather impressive animatronic: Marshmallow the Snow Monster. Don’t forget the Snowgies! Marshmallow means well, but his massive form and monstrous appearance can be rather intimidating — not to mention he also blows a puff of smoke at the guests before sending them down a small drop that kiddos probably aren’t expecting either. The hill is about as steep as the one from Pirates Of The Caribbean, but the combination of a snow monster and an unexpected drop might be something kids won’t soon “let go.” (Okay, we’ll stop now.) Click here to watch Elsa “give up” at EPCOT! The First Order And The Resistance Can Be A Bit Much Rise of the Resistance is one of the most — no, IS the most — immersive ride on Disney property. From the moment you walk into the queue, you become part of the story. The animatronics could very well have beating hearts and functioning brains, as far as we’re concerned. Just LOOK at them: Animatronic? Or the real Admiral Ackbar? So. Awesome. The numerous ride techniques that Hollywood Studio’s Rise of the Resistance utilizes to pull of this immersion is nothing short of impressive — almost too impressive. First Order Officer Before you step into the ride itself, guests waiting in line are captured by the First Order and escorted into the depths of the Star Destroyer — AKA: the first step toward “prepping you for interrogation.” Not gonna lie, the First Order can be pretty… antagonistic. But that’s their job — they’re not hired to play the good guys this time! This unique “mean” side of Disney cast members is fun and rather humorous, but younger children may feel intimidated and not understand that these “bad guys” aren’t actually bad guys. Oh no! The ride itself has moments that can astound and terrify, too — such as the realistic animatronics of Kylo Ren coming to destroy your party of rebels, or the sudden *drop* that happens during your escape. (Seriously, this ride incorporates EVERYTHING.) Again the drop isn’t too bad here — it’s no Tower of Terror — but it does catch you off guard if you’re not expecting it. (HINT: look at the video in front of you. You can see other escape pods dropping free of the ship JUST before you do!) Want to ride Rise of the Resistance? Click here for our top tips and tricks for grabbing a boarding pass! Heffalumps And Woozles Are A TRIP Winnie the Pooh — nothing scary about that silly ol’ bear, right? But what about his nightmares? Seems innocent enough… The Heffalumps and Woozles scene of Magic Kingdom’s Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh ride is very in-your-face when it comes to its eccentricity. After Pooh drifts to sleep (using that crazy-cool Pepper’s Ghost effect), he’s transported into a dark realm with eerie blacklight-painted characters — who all seem to be staring into. your. soul. Hold on! Granted, these characters could come across as more silly than frightening for younger audiences. They give off that same energy as Figment’s funhouse — unsettling, but still charming? Oh, bother! BUT the freakiest of the Heffalumps and Woozles scene are the GIANT jack-in-the-box creatures hovering over your ride vehicle. The intense colors, the massive sizes, the giant tongues lolling lazily out of their mouths. If a child were to be frightened at some point during the ride, it’s going to be here. There’s going to be a new Winnie the Pooh show?! Check out the details here! Scary For New Thrill Riders (Elementary Age And Up) The Stress Of Piloting A Hunk Of Junk Sometimes, Disney rides can be pretty freaky not just for the pre-k crowd; young guests who are just tall enough to go on the more thrilling attractions can get freaked out over a whole new world of Disney rides. Take Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run over at Hollywood Studios, for instance. What a hunk of junk! The idea of being part of the Millennium Falcon crew is enticing, yes, but no one talks about the immense *pressure* you experience on this ride. Inside the Millennium Falcon Cockpit Upon boarding the Falcon, you are assigned one of three roles: pilot, gunner, or engineer. Out of the three, the engineer is probably the most relaxed role of the bunch; they’re in charge of making sure the ship keeps in tip-top shape. The gunner defends the ship (which is a little more stressful when the bad guys are on your tail). Piloting the Falcon is an absolute honor. It’s also possibly the most stress you’ll experience on a Disney attraction. May the Force be with you! Kids who’ve been put in the position of pilot will hear shouts of commands and terrified screams from their fellow passengers as they try to quickly figure out the controls. Though the plot of the ride is the same each time, the view and the intensity of the crashes all depend on how well the pilots are doing. If the Falcon crashes, it’s on you (and your co-pilot). The pressure from the group and the action-packed energy of the ride itself can be pretty overwhelming. Want to ride Smugglers Run before you go? Check out our full-ride through here! “There Doesn’t Seem To Be Any Track…” There’s a yeti on the loose! What could go wrong? Expedition Everest, located in Animal Kingdom, is a high-speed roller coaster based around a Himalayan journey-gone-south. After explorers “trek” their way up Mount Everest (at an incline that’s pretty freaky on its own, considering you can see the ENTIRETY OF DISNEY WORLD from that high up!), everything will be going fine and dandy… …until the track ends. ©D23 Uh oh. Seems like someone (or something) has been angered by trespassers in their territory! Being sent hurdling backward into the depths of the Forbidden Mountain is one thing, but the anticipation — the full-on stop in front of the broken track — is butterflies-in-your-stomach freaky. If you’ve never been on the ride…what will happen?! It gives you just enough time to think about what could happen next. ©Disney If the tension becomes too much, try focusing on all the ponytail holders guests have tossed around this ride scene. (Weird, but an effective distraction, nonetheless.) In our experiences, the dark backward rush down the track following this is downright terrifying for kids and some adults alike. It almost FEELS like you’re going upside down, but you’re not. Is Expedition Everest the best mountain at WDW? You voted, and we have the results here! Ascent/Descent Into “The Epcot Ball” Ah, Spaceship Earth — how we love thee. We love how picturesque you are. We love your bubblegum wall. And we love your fifteen-minute ride that takes us through the timeline of communication and all its glory. Sigh. What a beauty! What some of us don’t love is the dark, steep ascent at the beginning of the ride, and the dark, steep, backward descent at the end. Going Up! When the ride starts, you are led into an inclined tunnel with only a few lights and Judy Dench’s melodious narration to lead the way. (Oh, there’s also a blinding camera op, so look out!) Then comes the meat of the ride, which is as charming as it is outdated (but we overlook that because it’s Spaceship Earth and a downright ICON). By the ride’s end, you’re back in a dark tunnel again — but at least there’s a fun (and also outdated) quiz you get to take on the screen installed in front of you. Spaceship Earth Ride Vehicle On the other hand, you’re going backward the entire descent. This may not be a big deal for everyone, but this could be jarring for kids (and adults) who get freaked out when they can’t see what’s in front of them. It’s REAL dark in there. Spaceship Earth is looking even MORE beautiful lately! Click here to find out why! That Semi-Truck Came From WHERE?! What’s freaky about test driving a car you designed yourself? High speed thrills coming your way! How about throwing in an 18 WHEELER HURTLING STRAIGHT TOWARD YOU!? Look out!! EPCOT’s Test Track is the only high-speed roller coaster in the park (so far). After designing your own vehicle in the queue (when available), you get to put it to the test and compete with the other riders to see whose design comes out on top. The first part of the ride tests your vehicle’s eco-efficiency, then winds down some rather curvy paths (nothing too terrifying). ©Disney All of a sudden, BAM! You’ve come face-to-face with a glowing semi-truck — which blasts its horn and blares its high beams right at you and your fellow passengers. Don’t worry — it’s all part of the “responsiveness” portion of the test, and you’re able to get out of the way before you’re crushed. But kids could still be pretty shaken by this random jump scare. ©Disney If that doesn’t rattle them, maybe driving 60 mph toward a solid-looking wall will do the trick… Awkward! We got stuck on Test Track…click here to see where! Transitioning From The Green To The Orange Side Of Space Training If kiddos are used to the “green” side of Mission: Space over at EPCOT (That’s right — we’re talking about ANOTHER EPCOT attractions for this list), then the transition over to the “orange” side could be freaky. 3…2…1…Blast Off! The green side of Mission: Space loads you — the astronaut-in-training — into a motion simulator where you will be assigned one of four positions: navigator, pilot, commander, or engineer. (Sound familiar?) From there, it’s a pretty laid-back experience: You fly around the Earth and experience a couple motion-based sequences, but nothing too intense. If you’re claustrophobic, however, the tight-quarters within the training cabin could be intense on both the green and orange mission. Which will you choose? The orange side of Mission: Space has the same tight-space issues, with added *spice.* Say hello to super-intense G-Forces. We’re talking SPINNING. And a LOT of it! Enough spinning to make it feel like you’re really blasting off into space. The forces you feel on your body can be offputting if you’ve never experienced it (think those super-fast spiny Gravitron type rides at the fair). Feeling nauseous? No worries — you can always reach for the barf bags stored in the compartment in front of you. They don’t call it the “intense” side for nothing! Okay. You want our *real* thoughts of Mission: Space? Click here — we’ll give you the deets. Reminder: These rides are not MEANT to be terrifying! They just have freaky instances you may want to warn nervous children (or even nervous adults!) about ahead of time — just in case!

Guests returned to Disneyland at the end of April, and more things around the parks have been reopening ever since! Galaxy’s Edge Not only are more of the Disneyland hotels getting reopening dates, but we’ve seen restaurants like Wine Country Trattoria, Tiki Juice Bar, Docking Bay 7 Food & Cargo, and more set reopening dates. Many of these restaurants reopened today along with one of the most sought out spots in ALL of Disneyland — Oga’s Cantina! We luckily scored a reservation for Oga’s Cantina when they became available, and now we’re here to show you a newly reopened space! Oga’s Cantina is a lounge located in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, and it’s known for its unique boozy drinks. The restaurant has been open in Disney World for a while now, so we kind of knew what to expect, but we’re going to show you what it looks like in Disneyland right now. Oga’s Cantina! First, we checked in for our reservation. Almost Time Within a few minutes, we were directed to join a line that had formed near the restaurant. Be on the lookout for this line if you’re planning to grab some intergalactic goodies here. Get in Line Then, it was our time to head inside! Oga’s Has Reopened! Finally time to listen to those sweet tunes spun by DJ R3X and grab some drinks and food! Oga’s Cantina is Open! Be sure to look all around you when you’re in Oga’s Cantina — there’s a lot to check out in this space! So Much to See Looking for the menu? You can go ahead and scan the QR codes on the coasters in the restaurant to pull up the menu and pick what items you’d like to grab. Scan the Code for the Menu During our time at Oga’s, we got the Happabore Sampler, which features a selection of Cured Meats, Artisan Cheeses, Rations, Crackers ($21)… Sampler …as well as the Bloody Rancor which is made of Tito’s Handmade Vodka, Ancho Reyes Chile Liqueur, and Spicy Bloody Mary Mix, and has a Rancor Bone on top ($18)… Bloody Rancor …and the Yub Nub, which is made with Malibu Pineapple Rum, Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum, Citrus Juices, and Passion Fruit (you can get this in a souvenir mug or just as the drink). Yub Nub! We’ll be bringing you a FULL review of our time there soon so stay tuned for that! And keep checking back with us for all the latest Disneyland news!

Today’s a big day if you’re heading to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland! That’s because BOTH Oga’s Cantina and Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo are officially reopening to guests following the park’s extended closure. Galaxy’s Edge And while a lot of dishes could draw you into Docking Bay 7, today we were drawn in by one item in particular — a brand new drink that was just added to the menu! If you’re looking for an afternoon pick-me-up, just wait until you see the NEW Cold Brew Black Caf! This caffeinated drink is Cold Brew Coffee topped with Sweet Cream Cheese and Chocolate Puffs (essentially Cocoa Puffs). Time for Some Coffee! It certainly looks like a marriage between one of the breakfast items we loved as a kid (cereal) with one of the things we now love as adults (COFFEE!). But how did it taste? OooOo Chocolate Puffs! We actually thought it tasted really good! It was sweet, but not to an extreme level. We didn’t really taste a cream cheese flavor though. Instead, it tasted more like regular sweet cream. Sometimes You Need That Coffee to Get Through a Day at the Parks! The chocolate puffs are a fun added touch, but they do sort-of get in the way when you first start drinking this if you don’t grab a straw. So, you might want to grab (or bring) a straw so you can get more of the coffee drink itself to balance things out. Warning! If you drink this without a straw you might get a mouthful of ice cubes when you were expecting to get a mouthful of chocolate puffs! So just be aware of that! You Might Want to Grab a Straw! We really didn’t have any complaints about the drink other than that though. If you’re a fan of sweet coffee drinks, we have a feeling you’ll like this. If you don’t like coffee, then this is likely a skip for you. You can grab this drink during lunch and dinner times in Galaxy’s Edge (perfect if you need that extra boost of energy on your long day in the parks). YUM If you’re curious and want to try this drink for yourself, head to Docking Bay 7 Food and Cargo at Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland and pick one up for $5.49. Will this drink eventually make it to Disney World’s Galaxy’s Edge? We’ll definitely be on the lookout for any updates on that and let you know what we find.

When we first spotted Loki in Avengers Campus in Disney California Adventure Park he was wearing his more traditional outfit with his large headpiece. Thor and Loki Last week, we spotted the Variant Loki at Avengers Campus, inspired by the new Loki show on Disney+. Now, Loki has changed outfits AGAIN! It’s out with the old… Loki! …and in with the new!! When we visited Avengers Campus today, we spotted Variant Loki in a new outfit inspired by the most recent episode of the series. Variant Loki is Here and Burdened With Glorious Purpose This time, Loki has his jacket on with the “Variant” designation on the back. Variant Loki is Out and About And it looks like he’s all dressed up and ready to work for the TVA and (of course) get up to some antics (and probably listen to himself talk a lot)! Hey There Loki!

Jock Lindsey’s Hangar Bar in Disney Springs is a great place to go if you want a little adventure with your drinks! Head on into the Hangar Bar! If you’re a big Indiana Jones fan, you’ll know that this bar is named after his pilot in Raiders of the Lost Ark, Jock Lindsey. We just found out that the bar is bringing back a super fun item for a limited time: The Bacon of Doom! So of course, we had to rush on over to Jock Lindsey’s to give it a try! This is the Bacon of Doom! The name is a little intimidating, but it’s just the bar’s Temple of Bacon dish a little more jazzed up! Look at that presentation! It features thick-cut applewood-smoked bacon dipped in milked chocolate and chipotle ganache from the delicious Ganachery at Disney Springs! Chocolate covered bacon The difference with the Bacon of Doom is that it’s served with your choice of a shareable smoked cocktail! Uh, yes, please!! Pair your bacon with a nice cocktail! You can choose between the Trusty Revolver, which has Bulleit Rye Whiskey, Tipplers Orange Liqueur, and Luxardo Cherries, or the Snake Bite Margarita, which is Herradura Reposado Tequila, Ancho Reyes Chile Liqueur, and Tipplers Orange Liqueur, with Sweet-and-Sour, and Lime Juice. Both cocktails are smoked and served with an ice sphere. Time to pour! We chose the Trusty Revolver as our cocktail, and the presentation was SO EXCITING. They completely cover up the drink and bacon with a large glass lid and fill it with smoke. Look at all that smoke! Then, the lid is lifted and the cocktail and bacon are revealed! Smokey goodness Here’s a full look at the lid coming off! The Trusty Revolver was really good, it was smooth with a slight hint of the orange liqueur and the Bulleit Whiskey was so tasty. A perfect pair However, the drink IS meant to be shared, it’s a lot for just one person, so be careful! Click here to see our Temple of Bacon review! Moving on to the bacon, it had great heat from the chipotle ganache and the bits of bacon and salt sprinkled on top were such a decadent touch, we loved it! Baconnnnn The milk chocolate gives you the perfect mix of salty and sweet, and the heat from the chipotle ganache really takes the bacon up a notch. So good! This dish is $32, so while that may seem a little pricey, you are technically getting the bacon plus two cocktails, since the drink is big enough to easily be shared. We think the price is worth the whole experience of the smoke presentation and delicious bacon! If you want to try the Bacon of Doom, it’s only available until September 6th, so act fast!!

Welcome back to EPCOT! Hi, Mickey! We recently noticed a couple changes on our trips around Future World and the World Showcase, so we have a super quick update for you! Let’s get started. EPCOT Food Updates Refreshment Outpost There is no longer banana soft serve on the menu at Refreshment Outpost, which can be found between the China and Germany pavilions! We miss you, banana The menu says “seasonal flavors” underneath the soft serve item, so maybe we’ll see a new flavor pop up! What seasonal flavor will be next? For now, you can still get chocolate and vanilla soft serve, but that’s just not as exciting. EPCOT Additional Updates Masks As of June 15th, masks were no longer required for vaccinated guests in most areas in Disney World. We got to see the new mask rules in action at EPCOT recently. Italy Pavilion The biggest difference we saw was many guests no longer wearing masks in stores and on rides. However, the outdated mask signage was still up in some places around the park. Time to replace the sign! Even though we did notice some signs to put on your masks indoors, Cast Members were letting guests know that they didn’t have to wear them. U.K. Pavilion We did still see a decent amount of guests wearing masks in EPCOT though. You can read more about these mask changes here. Skyliner The Skyliner was down for a period of time due to weather, we saw this sign while leaving the International Gateway. Too many storms for the Skyliner That’s all we have for you from EPCOT! We’re in the parks alllll the time, so we’ll keep you updated with anything new we see, stay tuned to DFB! Click here to see the Food and Wine Festival booths already up at EPCOT!

More and more restaurants are starting to open up again in Disneyland, and today we’re checking out the reopened Wine Country Trattoria! Wine Country Trattoria This restaurant is located in Disney California Adventure and features a menu that is inspired by Napa Valley, so of course, there’s LOTS of wine!
