If you love Mickey ears, you probably know Disney’s released quite a few pairs lately! OoooOoooo! So Pretty! We’ve seen pretty pastel rainbow ears, a twist on Minnie’s classic polka-dotted look, and even new light-up balloon ears! But when we first saw Disney’s new (blue? purple?) ears in the parks, we had some QUESTIONS. Luckily, if you’re a fan of these kinda controversial ears, you can now snag ’em online! First of all, Disney has answered our question, people! Our team was torn on whether Disney’s new ears were purple and blue — and you guys were pretty split, too! Disney named these snazzy new ears “Iris,” which doesn’t really clearly anything up (iris can range anywhere from blue to violet!). But in the description, these ears are a “rich blue.” Mystery solved! Sequined Iris Ears Now, onto that bow! It’s certainly unique, right?! Is it made of flowers? Inspired by an ’80s prom dress? That’s up to you to decide! What a UNIQUE bow! And of course, there are PLENTY of sequins to complete the look. You can snag these ears on shopDisney for $29.99! Just remember — quantity is limited to 10 per guest. Click Here to Buy the Iris Ears! So…are YOU convinced that these ears are blue? What do you think of ’em?

It’s kind of a weird time for Disney World right now. EPCOT As you can imagine there are LOTS of upcoming offerings that we’re excited about, from attractions to restaurants and everything in between. At the same time, we haven’t had any big NEW announcements in a while. So, there’s only so much we know about the next few years in Disney World. What can we expect for the years to come? The Next Stuff We Know About Before we dive into what might be next for Disney World in the long term, let’s take a look at the “next” stuff that we know about right now. New Attractions First up, we’re anxiously awaiting the October 1st, 2021 opening of Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure. This EPCOT addition is set to open along with the France Pavilion Expansion on Disney World’s 50th anniversary. Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure Ride Vehicle We are very excited for this trackless, dark ride through Gusteau’s kitchen at Remy’s side. (Ummm…another actual ride in World Showcase? YES.) A portion of the new area has opened, but you can just walk down an empty street and use the new potties. We’re pumped for this ride to finally open! Click here to learn more about Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure! Also in EPCOT, but over in Future World, we’ve been watching the progress on Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind. It sure feels like this one has been under construction forever at this point, right? This attraction based on some of Marvel’s funniest heroes will be a reverse-launch indoor Omnicoaster. It sounds crazy fun — each car rotates around as it navigates the track. We expect, in true Guardians fashion, that a bumpin’ soundtrack will play a role here as well! Needless to say, we’re pretty excited. Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind Concept Art ©Disney The attraction was originally slated to open this year in time for Disney World’s 50th Anniversary in October. At this time, Disney has not announced an update to this opening time frame, despite the construction halt during the park closures. The exterior still looks very much under construction, but we’re fingers crossed we’ll be zipping around with Rocket, Peter Quill, and Groot soon! Want to learn more about Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind? Click here! Just next door, the old Wonders of Life Pavilion in EPCOT (that’s the big gold dome) is getting reworked to become the PLAY! Pavilion as a part of the EPCOT Transformation. This pavilion will bring guests into a digital metropolis where they can play along with their favorite Disney characters. PLAY! Pavilion Concept Art ©Disney This is another attraction that was initially slated to open ahead of the 50th Anniversary in October and Disney has not provided an update yet. We’ll let you know when we hear of a delay or an official opening! To learn more about the PLAY! Pavilion, click here! Yet ANOTHER upcoming EPCOT experience is Moana Journey of Water, coming to what will be World Nature in the old Future World West (near The Seas with Nemo and Friends!). This walkthrough attraction will teach guests about the role of water on Earth. Journey of Water Concept Art as seen in The EPCOT Experience It’s unclear when this spot will open, although a USA Today article noted it may not be until after 2021, despite being slated for this year. Construction doesn’t appear to have even begun on this attraction. Also up in the air is the Mary Poppins attraction that was announced as coming to the U.K. Pavilion which has been postponed indefinitely at this time. Click here to learn about Moana Journey of Water! Scooting on over to Magic Kingdom you’ve probably seen or heard of the MASSIVE construction being done on the TRON Lightcycle Run roller coaster. This thrill ride will have guests mounting motorcycle-style lightcycles and will be BOTH indoor and outdoor with a LOT of fun lighting on the ride at night. TRON Lightcycle Run Construction This coaster was originally announced as opening in time for the 50th but has since potentially been delayed past 2021. In the meantime, we’ll just have to stare longingly at the VERY cool canopy construction taking place outside the ride building. (P.S. — we’re also waiting for this to wrap up so the Walt Disney World Railroad can FINALLY reopen!) Want to see more of TRON Lightcycle Run? Click here! Disney Springs was set to get an all-new Cirque du Soleil show with Drawn to Life last year, but with the start of the global health crisis, it was postponed. The show is supposed to be a performance that celebrates the artistry of animation. We even got a sneak peek! Drawn to Life Ensemble As of now, a new opening has not been announced and tickets are not currently on sale, but the show is still expected to open as health concerns decrease. To learn more about Drawn to Life, click here! Not new attractions per se, but Magic Kingdom planning some MAJOR ride refurbishments in the next few years. Imagineers announced a retheme of Splash Mountain into a The Princess and the Frog-themed ride, but have yet to release the timeline for that work to be completed. Concept Art ©Disney Another classic attraction will see a major refurbishment with the Jungle Cruise receiving a whole new storyline. The changes will take place later this year and will help with the cultural sensitivity of the attraction while making the Skippers even MORE prevalent characters! Click here to learn more about the Jungle Cruise updates! New Restaurants Of course, attractions aren’t the only big news. We also have some restaurants to anticipate! Remember that France Pavilion Expansion we referenced earlier? It will also include a new crepe spot with La Creperie de Paris. La Creperie de Paris This new restaurant will offer sweet and savory crepes and will have both quick service and table service dining options. Neat! The opening is expected this year along with Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure. EPCOT is expected to get a new gelato kiosk in the Italy Pavilion, but opening details have not been announced. Want to learn more about La Creperie de Paris? Click here! Over in Future World, work on the MUCH anticipated Space 220 is StILL underway. At least, we hope it’s underway. This space-themed dining experience was announced waaaaaaay back in 2017. Can you believe it? ©Disney via IAAPA Expo 2020 Presentation We’re still waiting to hear when this dining option will open. We’re VERY ready to see simulated views into space, a spaceship-themed dining room, and of course, the space elevators. To learn more about Space 220, click here! Over in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, we’re expecting the opening of Roundup Rodeo BBQ, a table-service option in Toy Story Land. Your meal will take place in a toy rodeo of Andy’s creation with rodeo festivities going on around you! And, of course, a BBQ menu. Roundup Rodeo BBQ Concept Art Roundup Rodeo BBQ was originally set to open in 2020 and a new opening date has not yet been announced. Click here to learn more about Roundup Rodeo BBQ! The fate of Reflections — A Disney Lakeside Lodge is still very up in the air (more on that in a sec!), but if it IS still on the to-do list for Disney, then we’ll get to see a The Princess and the Frog-themed restaurant in the Disney Vacation Club resort. Princess and the Frog Restaurant ©Disney Another spot that never got an opening date but seems to be on pause is the market-style concept Beatrix that was set to come to Disney Springs. This area has had construction walls up for a long time now with no sign of progress. We’re still waiting on word for both of these offerings! Want to learn more about The Princess and the Frog-themed restaurant? Click here! EPCOT Transformation We’ve mentioned a few attractions and restaurants that will be a part of the EPCOT Transformation here, but the HUGE park rework includes some other new features too that don’t quite fit into the “ride” or “restaurant” buckets. For one, Future World is set to be turned into three different neighborhoods by EPCOT’s Anniversary in October 2022. Epcot Experience Transformation Model World Celebration in the center will feature a new Walt Disney statue and a festival pavilion, World Nature will surround The Land and The Seas Pavilions, and World Discovery will feature the Guardians attraction, Mission: SPACE, Space 220, Test Track, and Play Pavilion. To learn more about the EPCOT Transformation, click here! To go along with all of this is an all-new Nighttime Spectacular called Harmonious! This show was supposed to debut in 2020 but was delayed due to the crisis. A new timeframe has yet to be announced, but you can see some of the barges in World Showcase Lagoon now. The large metal structures complete with screens, lights, and moving water-shooting arms are taking a bit to get used to in the center of World Showcase lagoon! Harmonious Centerpiece. Not quite the view you might have hoped! When it does debut, it’s set to be a celebration of the way that music brings us together featuring custom-built LED panels, choreographed moving fountains, lights and lasers, and pyrotechnics. The massive metal barges will turn into fountains in the center of the lagoon by day. Click here to see more about Harmonious! Anniversary Celebrations The next two years also hold some seriously BIG Disney World anniversaries. For one, Disney World turns 50 years old on October 1st this year. Holy moly! We’re expecting some historic celebrations and Disney hasn’t shared TOO many details just yet. ©Disney We DO know, though, that all four park icons will receive an updated look (EPCOT’s will be permanent) for about 18 months following the anniversary. We’ve already seen lots of the decor start appearing on Cinderella Castle! Cinderella Castle Decorations Mickey and Minnie will get some new threads too! Want to learn more about the 50th celebrations? Click here! Then in 2022, EPCOT rings in its 40th anniversary! Much of the EPCOT Transformation is expected to be wrapped up by this point, so EPCOT will be looking fabulous for the big 4-0. EPCOT We know even fewer details about this anniversary, but we’ll keep you updated as we learn more about the celebrations. Wondering if you should book a 2021 or 2022 vacation? Click here! Hotel Updates And finally, we know about some hotel updates that we can expect. For one, Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is in the midst of a MAJOR refurbishment that will update common areas and give the rooms a Moana-themed rework! Room Renovation Construction is very visible right now (as in there’s NO MONORAIL STATION right now at the front of the hotel!) and we’re excited to see the final product this summer. To learn more about the Polynesian refurbishment, click here! A VERY exciting resort hotel on the horizon is the Star Wars hotel — Galactic Starcruiser. This experience will be unlike any other. You will remain “aboard” the hotel for a few days (kind of like a cruise ship) and experience your own Star Wars story. ©Disney via IAAPA Expo 2020 Presentation No opening season, pricing details, or availability information has been released for Galactic Starcruiser. But we DO know we’ll be able to use the Force and look out our windows into space, which is pretty cool. Want to learn more about Galactic Starcruiser? Click here! The Walt Disney World Swan Reserve is an all-new accommodation addition at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort which will be located right next to the existing Swan and Dolphin hotels. Swan Reserve Reservations are now open for dates beginning September 1st. We’re pretty excited to explore this 14-story hotel later this year. Click here to see more details on The Swan Reserve reservations! Remember when we mentioned Reflections — A Disney Lakeside Lodge earlier? This DVC resort was announced near Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort & Campground in the area the now-gone River Country waterpark used to sit. Now, it’s unclear if the project is pulled, on track, or delayed indefinitely. Reflections — A Disney Lakeside Lodge We’ve seen some signs that the project was canceled, but Disney World Cast Members maintain the listed information that the resort is coming soon. We’re keeping a CLOSE eye on this situation so stay tuned! To see more information on Reflections, click here! Okay…but then what? Typically, we know Disney’s BIG plans a few years in advance; but with the shakeup from the global health crisis, we haven’t gotten our usual glimpse into the future. For now, 2022 is about as far as we can project. Interestingly enough, all four parks will have received a major update in the last five years by 2022. Pandora was added to Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge and Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway were added to Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Cinderella Castle and more will have been refurbished and TRON Lightcycle Run will have opened in Magic Kingdom. The EPCOT Transformation will be well underway if not complete. It feels a little bit like a nice bookend, so we’re curious about the next chapter! When will you hear about the next MAJOR steps for Disney? It might not be until the D23 conference in 2022! D23 was canceled for 2021 as a health measure, and maybe even so that more announcements are ready for the event. We’ll certainly be waiting for all the news and we’ll bring it to you as soon as we have it. For now, we’ll have to wait for the things we DO know about.

Marvel fans: get excited! ©Disney | Marvel Studios Last month, we told ya that Disney finally announced a release date for its new Loki series — June 11th, 2021! We already got a peek at the show, but if you’re itching to know even MORE about what our favorite god of mischief will be up to, good news. Disney just released another trailer! The action-packed trailer seems to see Loki on a quest to fix time, and it looks pretty epic. And is that Black Widow?! Guess we’ll have to wait and find out! Take a look here. The series will follow Loki as he gets trapped in his own crime thriller — and based on Loki’s expression in the trailer, he seems juuust as confused as we are about that. We’re looking forward to learning even more about what looks to be a super-crazy plot! ‘Loki’ is coming soon! At least while we wait, we’ve got The Falcon and the Winter Soldier to give us our Marvel fix. Stay tuned to DFB for more Disney news! Learn More About Loki!

Easter has been FULL of treats for guests at Disney World and we’ve been trying lots of ’em! Le Petit Cafe We’ve snacked on a Thumper-inspired cupcake, a boozy chocolate bunny, a colorful donut, a bunny butt mousse (no joke), and more. And, in celebration of the holiday, we’ve made our way over to Disney’s Riviera Resort to try yet another treat! Le Petit Café has a wide selection of desserts and pastries for guests to enjoy. Today, its bakery case received a festive makeover! New Easter designs! The case is filled with spring-inspired designs, like this seasonal cupcake with pastel-colored frosting. Just like springtime flowers! There’s also a lemon cheesecake that looks like a little bird’s nest! The eggs are hatching! And these profiteroles are decorated with some impressive gold and purple butterflies! We might feel a little guilty if we tried eating these. Beautiful butterflies We decided on the Milk-Chocolate Ganache Tart! It’s made with a graham cracker crust, soft chocolate mousse, milk chocolate ganache, salted caramel crisp pearls, and chantilly vanilla cream. So, as you can tell, it’s packed with a bunch of sweet flavors. Easter Chocolate Ganache Tart And in celebration of Easter, the tart is covered with decorative carrots all over the top and surprise mini bunny ears peeking out! So cute! The bunny ears are made with fondant. Surprise ears! This is a dessert you can find at the resort regularly, just without the holiday overlay. With or without the Easter design, we’re big fans of this tart! The vanilla cream melts in your mouth and blends really well with the graham cracker and milk chocolate flavors. It’s a decadent dessert with rich ingredients, but isn’t heavy like some other treats. Cross Section of the Tart The Milk-Chocolate Ganache Tart costs $6.99. Oh, and last, but not least. There’s a seriously impressive decoration we spotted at Le Petit Café, too. Another GIANT egg. Riviera Chocolate Egg It’s laced with so much detail! Look at all the gold decorations. Who knew eggs could be stunning? As we end our Easter in Disney World, we can’t wait to see what other new goodies make their way into the parks soon! Stay tuned to DFB for the latest Disney news!

We’re always on the lookout for all the locations where we can find our favorite snacks throughout Disney World. Hanging around at the Riviera Resort We know all the usual haunts for our favorite snacks, but sometimes, they turn up in different places! We’re here to remind you about ANOTHER location where you can find gelato in Disney World. At Disney’s Riviera Resort, there are plenty of great options to find dessert, like Le Petit Cafe. Wait… we know this cart. But, there’s also a Vivoli il Gelato cart, just like the one in Disney Springs! We’ve seen the cart here in the past, but we thought we’d take this opportunity to share the very important reminder that you can get their gelato at Disney’s Riviera Resort. Vivoli il Gelato cart!

You can grab it now at the pool bar, as well as at The Mara for breakfast. It’s $4.79. Trust us, it’s worth it! The Mara Speaking of The Mara, it’s now serving dinner once again!

From pink drinks for Valentine’s Day to cranberry concoctions for Christmas, Disney World is consistently churning out photogenic drinks. And they can be as pretty as they are tasty! Well, *most* of the time. Animal Kingdom…new treat hub? Sometimes, certain drinks seem like they’re made mostly for Instagram, with a little less emphasis on tastiness. Such was the case with a fiery new cocktail at Disney’s Animal Kingdom! Dawa Bar is one of those go-to spots in Disney World for cocktail classics, and we DO love us some Jungle Juice! Dawa Bar But with a name like “Lion’s Fury,” we figured the new cocktail at Dawa Bar wasn’t going to be exactly subtle. It’s a boozy punch made with Red Stag Cherry Whiskey, and Tropical Jungle Juice topped with a float of Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey and a Glow Cube. Lion’s Fury First off, it’s a SUPER pretty drink! It looks like a sunset on Kilimanjaro Safaris! Sure is pretty! However, the obsession stopped there. The cherry and Fireball flavors were VERY prominent and kinda overwhelming, so if these aren’t your favorite flavors, maybe give it a pass. Lion’s Fury The Jungle Juice was a welcomed mixer, as it added a pleasant fruitiness and much-needed sweetness to help temper the cinnamon and cherry. Jungle Juice FTW That being said, this is clearly a fun and vibrant novelty drink that screams “I’m on vacation!” So if you enjoy fruity cocktails and don’t mind Fireball, you just might love it! Vacation vibes It’s $16 at Dawa Bar, and you also get to keep that souvenir glow cube so you can make your future drinks all the more exciting. Try it for yourself and let us know what you think!

Spending a holiday in Disney World can be really exciting. From Halloween to Thanksgiving, and even the green treats of St. Patrick’s Day, it’s that extra Disney magic that really makes holiday memories more special. Cavalcade Now it’s time for another holiday in the parks, and we’ve been hopping around Magic Kingdom for Easter! Now we’re checking out the crowd levels in the park while it’s at capacity. Ever since Disney World reopened last summer, crowd levels have varied WILDLY, and often at surprising moments. For instance, recent spring break crowds have seen more ups and downs than Seven Dwarfs Mine Train! EPCOT Crowds Now that it’s Easter, and most people are off from work and school, were the crowds any different? Here’s what we noticed! Easter Crowds on Main Street The infamous Fantasyland bottleneck was still the most crowded part of Magic Kingdom, but no surprise there, tbh. This area typically becomes pretty congested. Fantasyland Easter Crowds And people were definitely flocking to the front of Cinderella Castle to see the Easter Bunnies! Crowds turned out for the Easter Bunnies! As we’ve seen before, peak lunchtime also saw a bit of a crowd for Cosmic Ray’s Starlight Cafe! Crowds at Cosmic Ray’s There was a 60-minute wait for Pirates of the Caribbean, too. Pirates of the Caribbean But Main Street, U.S.A. was mostly wide open! Main Street, U.S.A. While there was some predictable clustering happening in typical areas, it generally didn’t seem overly crowded. But, it was a smidge busier than we’ve seen in recent days. Easter Crowds All in all, it’s felt slightly busier than normal today in Disney World. This makes sense, especially considering the prime weather and bunny-sighting opportunities! Easter Crowds Now if you excuse us, we’ve gotta go find our Easter Baskets! Check back with us for more updates from Disney World!

Does it seem like there are tons of construction projects going on in Disney World right now? Cinderella Castle Well, that’s because there are! We’re here to fill you in with updates on the ongoing projects throughout the parks and resorts. Magic Kingdom Tangled Restrooms Ready to be impressed by a bathroom? We sure hope so. The Tangled Restrooms are some of the prettiest bathrooms in all of Disney World, and now they’re looking even better. This week, the area around the bathrooms got a fresh coat of paint making everything bright and shiny! Refreshed bathrooms! The bright, extensive murals are now looking much brighter and more picturesque. Bright and shiny paint! Not only has the paint been retouched, but the hanging flower baskets have also been replaced. Fresh designs and flowers! We understand that when you gotta go, you gotta go — but, consider making a pitstop at these awesome bathrooms in Magic Kingdom! The inside is full of even more immersive details. Fantasyland Another area in Fantasyland has been spruced up as well! Behind the castle near the fountain, the buildings can be seen boasting fresh paint. Fantasyland looks SO different! The blue is much richer in comparison to the previous sun-faded exterior. BLUE-tiful! Now, this facade will fit in with Cinderella Castle’s look much better! Later in the week, we also spotted some walls up behind the castle. Construction Wall Now, if you ask us, we think Disney World simply doesn’t need any more construction walls. But, they keep adding more and more. Cool Ship Early this week, we noticed that Cool Ship, a snack stand in Tomorrowland had some short construction walls surrounding it. Cool Ship Getting Refurbished You can typically find small snacks (like churros) and sodas here, but it’s been temporarily unavailable since Disney World reopened last summer. Walls are up! Nothing major seems to be going on here at the moment, but we’ll let you know if that changes. Prince Charming Regal Carrousel As part of Disney World’s 50th Anniversary celebrations, Prince Charming Regal Carrousel is getting refreshed too! You can see some recently added gold leaf painting around the movie frames! Looking good! We can’t wait to see Magic Kingdom once it’s fully decked out for the celebrations later this fall! Would You Pay $3 For Some Extra Magic in Disney World? EPCOT Spaceship Earth Although we did recently see some walls come down around Spaceship Earth, there are now more in place. No more walls, pls And if that weren’t enough walls… Morocco Morocco ALSO has a new, mystery wall in place. What’s that about?! Another Wall Seriously, this is a big one. The walls just never end. All Blocked! EPCOT truly has a lot going on right now, so we’ll be keeping up with all the construction projects taking place there. Learn more about EPCOT’s transformation here Disney’s Animal Kingdom Pandora — The World of Avatar Over the past few months, the grounds of Pandora have gone through the process of being repainted. This bioluminescent paint helps the land really light up at night! Bioluminescence Having this fresh coat of paint will add even more eye-catching illuminations for guests visiting Pandora after sundown. A Disney Legend is Selling RARE Collectibles From Animal Kingdom…but They’ll Cost You! Disney Resorts Pop Century Resort We noticed some painting taking place at one of the buildings that house guest rooms at Disney’s Pop Century Resort. Getting some fresh paint! It was happening near the “60s” area of the resort, by the Mowgli and Baloo statue. Art of Animation Resort The Big Blue Pool at Disney’s Art of Animation Resort has been closed for refurbishment since January. And it’s now reopened! The Big Blue Pool is back open! During our last visit, guests were splashing about among Nemo and friends and enjoying the pool! A Fan-Favorite Pool Reopens in Disney World General Construction Walt Disney World Entrance Sign Over at World Drive, it looks like the reimagined entrance sign is just about (if not, completely) finished! New and pretty! There were still cones and construction machinery in the area when we last drove past, so they might be adding some finishing touches. Latest Disney News: EPCOT’s Food & Wine Festival Starts EARLY, Disneyland Reopening Updates & MORE!

Most of us who go to Disney World know about the free buttons you can get for celebrating birthdays, anniversaries, first visits, and more! Happy Birthday, Mickey! Yep — the buttons ARE free in their most basic form, and they’re a super fun way to add some more magic to your day. For example, wearing your Birthday button = a LOT of birthday wishes from Cast Members…and sometimes even a free dessert (albeit a tiny one). Well today we’ve got a DFB tip to plus up your button that a LOT of people don’t know about! But the question is…is it worth it? Ye Old Christmas Shoppe at Magic Kingdom is the place to give your celebration button some BLING! You can pay $3 per word to get an artist’s touch on your celebration! This is what the extra magic looks like: $3! Granted, $3 is a serious investment when you consider a Carrot Cake Cookie costs just $3.99! And it’s just a little EXTRA magic on top of the free magic you can get. A Cast Member was wearing some examples on a lanyard so we could get a better look at some ideas. There are several designs and text colors available. Celebrating Easter So you have to ask yourself — is it worth spending a few extra dollars to plus up something you can get for free…just for some fancier writing? It could be a fun, inexpensive souvenir that has a little more panache than the original — and it might make a friend or family member feel super special. Sometimes, you just gotta say YOLO and spring for the bling. …And sometimes you’ve gotta invest in a Carrot Cake Cookie. Life’s full of tough choices…innit? Stay tuned because we’ll keep you updated on everything we find in the parks!

We’re back to take a look at this past week’s average times in Disney World! EPCOT Disney World has still been feeling the spring break crowds, especially as we’ve gotten closer to Easter. Park Pass reservations are still totally booked, but how did the wait times stack up? Let’s take a look! Magic Kingdom Last week, Splash Mountain tied with Seven Dwarfs Mine Train for the longest average wait time in Magic Kingdom. This week, it’s in the number one spot with an average wait of 68 minutes! That’s ten minutes longer than last week. Magic Kingdom’s longest wait this week Following behind Splash Mountain was Seven Dwarfs Mine Train with an average wait of 56 minutes, Space Mountain with 47 minutes, and Pirates of the Caribbean with 46 minutes. Also, Jungle Cruise had an average wait time of 42 minutes. Pirates of the Caribbean As we take a look at rides with average wait times in the 30s, we see Big Thunder Mountain Railroad at 36 minutes, “it’s a small world” at 38 minutes, Peter Pan’s Flight at 34 minutes, and Astro Orbiter and Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin at 31 minutes. Peter Pan’s Flight Rides with average wait times in the 20s include Prince Charming Regal Carrousel with an average wait time of 22 minutes, Mickey’s PhilharMagic with a wait time of 26 minutes, and Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh with a wait time of 21 minutes. Winnie the Pooh Ride! What were the rides with the lowest wait times in Magic Kingdom? Well, Haunted Mansion averaged a wait of 18 minutes, Under the Sea — Journey of the Little Mermaid averaged at 17 minutes, Tomorrowland Speedway at 18 minutes, Magic Carpets of Aladdin at 16 minutes, and Dumbo the Flying Elephant at 15 minutes. Welcome, foolish mortals Coming in with the lowest average wait times in the park, we have Barnstormer featuring the Great Goofini at 14 minutes, Mad Tea Party at 13 minutes, Carousel of Progress at 8 minutes, and Liberty Square Riverboat at 5 minutes. Mad Tea Party Some of these wait times were slightly shorter than last week, but generally speaking, they’re pretty similar! Let’s see how these numbers compare to the rest of Disney World! This Magic Kingdom Ride Will NOT Close During Its Transformation EPCOT No surprise here, Test Track had the longest wait time in EPCOT once again with an average of 58 minutes. Following closely behind are Soarin’ at 54 minutes, and both Frozen Ever After and Mission: SPACE at 45 minutes. Test Track Following those rides, we’ve got much shorter wait times! Spaceship Earth averaged a 25-minute wait, Journey Into Imagination averaged 16 minutes, and The Seas With Nemo and Friends averaged 14 minutes. The Seas! With especially low wait times, we have Living With the Land with a 10-minute average wait, and Gran Fiesta Tour with a 9-minute average wait. Gran Fiesta Tour This week’s wait times fall into the same range as last week’s! But, Magic Kingdom is still winning for having the longest average wait time so far. The Plush Version of an EPCOT Snack Might Be Better Than the Real Thing Disney’s Hollywood Studios The longest wait time in Hollywood Studios was NOT Tower of Terror this week — it was Slinky Dog Dash! The Toy Story Land coaster had an average wait time of 71 minutes. Slinky Dog Dash Next up, we’ve got Tower of Terror with a 63-minute average wait, Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run with a 54-minute wait, and Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster with a 41-minute wait! People really love their thrill rides! Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster In the 30s, we have Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway (35 minutes), and Toy Story Mania and Star Tours with 31-minute average wait times. Following closely behind are Alien Swirling Saucers (25 minutes), Muppet*Vision 3D (28 minutes), and Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy (27 minutes). Toy Story Mania This week’s average wait times in Hollywood Studios were slightly shorter than last week’s, except for those especially popular rides. Let’s check out Disney’s Animal Kingdom! Disney’s Animal Kingdom The longest average wait time in Animal Kingdom — and tying for longest wait time in Disney World this week — is Flight of Passage! The ride had an average wait time of 71 minutes, like Slinky Dog Dash. And this week, the wait time for Na’vi River Journey dropped even further, to 35 minutes, following the installation of plexiglass in the ride’s boats. Pandora Dinosaur actually had a longer average wait time than Na’vi River Journey, averaging at 37 minutes. Then, we’ve got Kilimanjaro Safaris at 33 minutes, Expedition Everest at 19 minutes, and TriceraTop Spin at 7 minutes. Elephant on the Safari! Generally speaking, most wait times have remained about the same, except for those particularly popular rides!

We were treated to an unexpected free treat in Magic Kingdom this weekend! Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe Disney World often rolls out special holiday offerings for guests. And since today is Easter, we’ve seen plenty of seasonal snacks, merchandise, and even characters around the parks. But this weekend, received a freebie that celebrates a holiday that’s much farther away! Christmas in…April? We say sure, why not?! Guests that are in the Christmas spirit all year long can swing by Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe in Magic Kingdom to find their holiday favorites. Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe And given the theme of the store, if there were anywhere to receive an out-of-season freebie, it makes sense that this would be the place! Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe While speaking with a Cast Member outside of Ye Olde Christmas Shoppe this weekend, they offered us some free Mickey Christmas stickers! Free Mickey Christmas Stickers! In the past, Cast Members would frequently give out free stickers that featured everything from a plain Mickey Mouse to seasonal designs the like Christmas ones we received. Riviera Resort Skyliner Sticker But free stickers don’t seem to be handed out as frequently as in the past. It had been a while since we were offered free stickers of any design and we were happy to see the adorable Christmas Mickey stickers, even if the holiday is still over a half year away! We’ll continue to be on the lookout for any other fun updates around the Disney World parks, so stay tuned for all of the latest news!

When it comes to souvenirs from Disney World, there are so many different choices. Orange Bird Ears From ears, to mugs, to plushes, and so much more — there are lots of options to remind you of your Disney World trip even after you’ve returned home. And to make those memories even more personal, you can have certain souvenirs personalized. Some of these options include Christmas ornaments and mugs, but there’s another unique souvenir that you can customize! You can find some of the most unique souvenirs in World Showcase at EPCOT. Each pavilion has specialty merchandise themed to its specific country, and you won’t be able to find most of it throughout the rest of Disney World. Hidden in the Italy Pavilion are some souviners that are one-of-a-kind! Italy Pavilion Inside La Gemma Elegante, you’ll find a huge selection of hand-painted and ornately decorated Venetian Carnival Masks. So many masks! These are created by Balocoloc Venetian Masks, a group of Italian Master Artisans that specialize in designing these traditional masks. Look at all that detail! Traditionally, these masks are worn during Carnival which is celebrated in Venice during February or early March. As part of the celebration, the streets are filled with people wearing specially decorated masks. It’s one of the oldest festivals celebrated in Italy and is still celebrated to this day. It includes lots of festivities and entertainment, so these masks are just one of the ways to commemorate the holiday. The history of Carnival! All the masks you’ll find in the shop are super impressive, but if you’re looking for something a little more personalized, you can even design your own mask. There are different mask styles to let your creativity shine! Different mask designs! Plus, some new kits are coming soon. These kits are expected to include a mask, an apron for kiddos, a paintbrush, different paints, a stick to attach to the mask, and more decorations! If someone in your family is especially creative, this could be a really fun activity to try. Look at all the masks It’s expected that a small area inside the store will be designated for the activity. There, you can customize a mask to your own liking! That’s way more unique than having your name embroidered on a Mickey hat, if you ask us. Customized Mask Just in case you’re not visiting Disney World any time soon, you can also find them on the Balocoloc website! There’s a whole selection of masks, hats, jewelry, and more. You can also grab a blank mask to paint at home! Behind the mask Even if you’re not interested in making your own mask, we definitely recommend stopping by and checking out all the intricately designed items!

We go to Disney World a LOT and we ride a LOT of rides over and over. So we feel like we’ve got a good idea of where the best seats are on each ride, as well as what the worst seats are! Tree of Life — ain’t she a beaut? Now, we LOVE Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Much of the appeal of that park isn’t even the rides themselves, but all the wonderful animals you can see while you’re there! It’s part safari and part theme park, which makes it an interesting place to visit. But you’ll still want to know how to best tackle those RIDES! Here’s what our team thinks are the best and worst seats on rides at Animal Kingdom. Now, we understand that you can’t necessarily get the best seat each and every time, but it’s totally okay to ask a Cast Member if you have a preference — you might have to wait a little longer to get on the ride, but we’ve found that Cast Members will accommodate requests if and when they can. Flight of Passage Best Seat: This one is tricky. Much like Soarin’ over in EPCOT, many different “groups” of riders are split across rooms looking at the same screen. Here, not only are you dealing with which room left to right you’re in but also top to bottom! Look around you next time you ride to see what we mean — a LOT more people than just your little room are riding! You’re all looking at the same thing, but 3D tends to “break” the farther you are to the sides (if you’ve seen doubles of everything in the quiet illuminated pink part of the ride, you know what we mean!). The ride building is set up sort of like a maze making it tough to tell just which room you’ll end up in! Flight of Passage Truthfully, even the “worst” seats here aren’t THAT bad. Your best bet, and it’s tough here, is to ask the Cast Member that assigns you to a door to walk through (basically at the end of the actual “line”). Tell them you want to be as close to the middle as possible and they might be able to point you to the best screen rooms. We feel this is the best spot to get ALL the immersion into Pandora that the ride offers but it’s a tough one to land. We’re going to be a big blue person and ride on a banshee! Worst Seat: By contrast, we feel the side sections will break the 3D more. They’re still fine, and the ride will still probably blow you away, but if you have a choice — why not ask for a middle section. What’s the worst thing that can happen? It might not be available, but hey, at least you tried. Here’s A Secret To What Makes Pandora Light Up At Night Na’vi River Journey Best Seat: First, this ride is underrated. It’s so relaxing and chill, and the shaman at the end is an animatronic wonder! With that being said, we feel the front of the boat is the best seat because you get to take in all that beauty of the immersive world of Pandora without being behind plexiglass (and we’ve learned that wet rides and plexiglass are not a great combination — AKA, blocked views!). One of the best animatronics at Disney World! Worst Seat: As we mentioned, plexiglass has been added to this ride, so that means the worst seat is probably the back. Although you’ll still have a good view of everything from the sides, which is where most of the “action” is at, so there’s that. But water on plexiglass can make for a blurry experience if you want to see what’s in front of you. Click Here To Learn About the Plexiglass on Na’vi River Journey Dinosaur Best Seat: Our team was split on this because there are, apparently, two types of people in this world — those who are terrified of the big Carnotaurus at the end, and those who want to hug the big Carnotaurus at the end. Keep this in mind for kiddos in your car who might be a little scared of that big bad dino! If you love that dino, you want to be as close as possible — on the far right on the first row. If you would prefer to be as far away from Mr. Dino as possible, go for the far left of the back row (he makes an appearance on your left too, but the front rows get the brunt of it). Let’s go get that dino! Worst Seat: Using that logic, the worst seat for the thrillseekers is the far left of the back row, and the worst seat for those who don’t want the dino all up in their faces is the far right on the first row (and he’s RIGHT THERE, so you’ve been warned). Here Are 25 Secrets You Never Knew About Animal Kingdom Triceratop Spin Okay, so this is the one ride where it doesn’t matter where you sit. This is basically like Dumbo, but with a triceratops. One thing to note though, the front seats move Mr. Triceratops up and down, the back row tilt him back and forth! Whee! It’s cute, it’s tame, it’s fun, and your kids will probably want to ride it. Plus the music in this area is worth hanging out to listen for a bit! Take A Food Tour of Dinoland, U.S.A. Expedition Everest Best Seat: Our team loves the front of roller coasters for the view. But we did have a few people who like the back because when you get to the part of the ride that goes — SPOILER ALERT — backward, you’re technically in front then (although you’re still facing backward). Since the ride goes back and forward, it really doesn’t matter too much where you sit — you get a unique thrill in any seat! We’re on our way to see the Yeti! Worst Seat: The middle is probably the tamest part of the ride because you’re, well, in the middle. There is a big-ish drop on the ride, so for that, normal coaster rules apply: back is more intense, front is tamer. Check Out All the NEW Expedition Everest Merchandise! Kilimanjaro Safaris Best Seat: If you want the best view of all the animals on the safari, our team feels like the best seat is the back row on the left side — it always seems like there are more animals to see on the left during this one. The back row also gives you a little bit of a better view around the plastic barriers in front of you (and you can turn around and have a view of the safari without the plastic). It’s a rhino! Worst Seat: Middle seems to be tough on this ride. If you get stuck in the middle seat of a middle row, you’ll be peeking through plexiglass AND other guests trying to snap pictures. It’s a tough spot to score good views. See Photos of A Baby Rhino On Kilimanjaro Safaris! It’s Tough To Be A Bug Best Seat: Because this is basically a big theater, the best position to be in is in the center of the theater in the middle seats. This gives you a better chance to see everything that’s going on in front of you. Plus, 3D rules apply here — the sides break the 3D effects just a little bit. Also, there’s fun stuff to keep an eye on in the show and the middle gives you the best view in front (and above!) you. It’s Tough to Be a Bug! (Is it really?) Worst Seat: That means that the worst seat in this house is in the back or on one of the sides because you won’t have as good of a view (especially if you’re on the side because you might miss what’s going on at the other side of the screen). Click Here Because We Found ‘A Bug’s Life’ Loungefly Bags! Kali River Rapids If you dare get on Kali River Rapids, know this — you will get wet. The boats are round and tend to spin uncontrollably at portions of the ride, meaning it’s literally like spinning a wheel and seeing who’s going to get SOAKED. No two rides or seats are. the same! You will get VERY wet. The worse seat on this ride is ANY for someone who doesn’t want to get wet. (Seriously — you WILL get get here!) We recommend these people sit over by the Anandapur Ice Cream Truck having a frozen treat that will cool them off without getting soaked. Click Here To Go On Some Disney Rides With Us! So there you have it — there are certain rides where you might want to try to request where to sit. But wherever you end up sitting, you’re at Disney World, so technically, EVERY seat is the best seat! Happy Riding! Could Disney’s New Tech Get More People on Water Rides Than Ever Before?
