WOW. What a week it has been! Disney California Adventure Park We knew that this week was going to be pretty big with the start of A Touch of Disney at Disney California Adventure Park (giving guests the first time to truly roam the park in over a YEAR), but so much other news was also announced this week. We’ve got updates on Disneyland, Black Widow, an EPCOT restaurant, Disney Cruise Line, and SO MUCH MORE! Here are some of the BIGGEST Disney news bombs from this week! 1. Disneyland is Reopening SOON! Disneyland’s theme parks have been closed for over a year at this point (except for a minor reopening of Buena Vista Street and now the “A Touch of Disney” event which gives guests access to some parts of Disney California Adventure Park). But, soon Disneyland and California Adventure will both be able to actually reopen! MICKEY!!! This week, Disney announced that its theme parks at Disneyland Resort will reopen on…April 30th! Disneyland’s reopening announcement! © Disney So far, we’ve gotten information about who will get to visit Disneyland first, how the parks will be limited to California residents for now, what masks guests will need to wear, what character interactions will be like, and more. We’re on the lookout for more updates and will share them with you as the reopening date approaches! Click here to learn more about Disneyland’s upcoming reopening! 2. A Touch of Disney Has Begun Ahead of the official reopening, Disney California Adventure Park is letting fans roam around the park, shop, and eat with a special ticketed event called A Touch of Disney. A Touch of Disney Yesterday, the event began in California Adventure, and (of course) we were there covering it all! We got the chance to grab some EXCLUSIVE Legacy Passholder items, say hello to our favorite characters again (TEARS. THERE WERE TEARS.)… We’ll Go Tractor Tipping Next Time Bud! …and EAT lots of food from all over Disneyland Resort, including the beloved Monte Cristo, wings from Trader Sam’s Enchanted Tiki Bar, Dole Whips, and SO much more. Lobster Nachos It truly was incredible to walk through parts of the park we haven’t had the chance to see in QUITE a while. We’ll keep you updated on any new things we find as this ticketed event continues to be offered. Click here to see more details about our time at A Touch of Disney and LOTS of food reviews! 3. Will Black Widow Go to Theaters or Disney+? With Raya and the Last Dragon having been released in theaters and Disney+ simultaneously, but Soul and Mulan having gone directly to Disney+, you might be wondering — what’s going on with Black Widow? Black Widow’s release has been delayed but it is currently set to be released in theaters on May 7th. This week, Disney’s CEO, Bob Chapek, shared a look behind-the-scenes at how they’re deciding whether it goes to theaters or not. Black Widow Pins Recently, Disney’s CEO said that Disney is continuing to watch consumer trends as they relate to movie theaters and will make the call on the release of Black Widow “at the last minute.” Click here to see more about what Disney CEO Bob Chapek had to say about Black Widow and the future of movie releases. 4. The Future of Disney’s Reservation System and Current Demand But, that’s not all Disney’s CEO had to say this week. Chapek also recently spoke about how Disney will be implementing a NEW reservation system that’s going to enable guests to “have a great time no matter when they choose to come to Disney.” Cinderella Castle Of course, a reservation system has been in place in the open parks for quite some time, therefore, Chapek was likely referring to the reservation system coming to Disneyland. Chapek also commented about some other things related to the future of the parks. You can check out more information about Chapek’s comments here! Chapek also spoke about demand levels at the parks. He noted that Disney has seen the “enthusiasm, the craving for people to return to [the] parks around the world.” EPCOT Crowds We have seen some large crowds in Disney World, although we’ve also seen days with lower crowds. The crowd level at Disney World is something we’re constantly looking at. We’ll let you know as we spot more updates. Click here to read more about Chapek’s comments regarding demand! 5. Part of Hollywood Studios is Getting a New Look This week we also got to hear about some new things coming to Disney World. Over at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, the Chinese Theatre (which houses Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway) will be getting a NEW nighttime look! Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway The searchlights will be returning to light up the sky and the building will also be getting some unique lighting. We can’t wait to see this new look once it’s all finalized! Check out photos of the new look coming to the Chinese Theatre here! 6. An EPCOT Restaurant is Reopening Looking for some British fare while in EPCOT? You could check out the Rose & Crown Pub and Yorkshire County Fish Shop in the United Kingdom pavilion, but soon the Rose & Crown Dining Room will be reopening! Rose & Crown This spot closed for refurbishment back in February. But, it is now set to reopen in just a few days and reservations are already available! Click here to read more about the reopening of the Rose and Crown Dining Room! 7. Disney Cruise Line Summer 2022, Here We COME! This week we also got some exciting cruise news. Disney Cruise Line has already said that they hope to resume limited operations later this year. But, if you’re already looking to the future to plan your trip, you’re in luck!

COVID-19 Guidelines Could Be Changing by July 4th The situation with COVID-19 has been constantly changing, especially recently with vaccinations being distributed, and changes in terms of rules about indoor gatherings for those who have been vaccinated. Recently, President Biden’s Chief Medical Advisor, Dr. Anthony Fauci, noted that we could have more normalcy in the United States by the 4th of July as more Americans get vaccinated. Orange Bird Mask! Dr. Fauci noted that if we get to July and infection levels are sufficiently low, guidelines could be more liberal than they are now. This, of course, is still a developing situation. We’ll be on the lookout for more updates. Click here to read more about Dr. Fauci’s statements! And those are just some of the updates from this week! Wondering what other big stories happened this week? Well, recently: Disneyland Paris extended their closure again; We shared some details about Disney’s anticipation of a return to Broadway; Orange County, California (where Disneyland is located) entered the Red Tier; and We shared that social distancing guidelines could be lowered to 3 feet.

We’ve seen a lot of health and safety changes over the last year due to COVID-19. Minnie Mouse knows the importance of a comfortable face-covering! Mask mandates, temperature checks, and social distancing have become the norm, but now that there are multiple vaccine options available, we have begun to see some changes in policies across the country. Now we have an update on Florida’s vaccine policy. According to Click Orlando, Friday morning during a news briefing in Tallahassee Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced that he will be lowering the requirement for vaccine eligibility to age 50. He said, “I’m going to sign an executive order this morning, lowering the age to 50, effective Monday.” ©Fox10 News | Florida Governor Ron DeSantis He noted that there is a modest demand for the vaccine in the 60-64 age bracket, which opened up last Monday. “I think the demand has been relatively modest, certainly much more modest than it was at the end of December when we were doing the 65 and plus,” DeSantis shared. He also looked toward the future and the possibility of getting the Coronavirus vaccine to all Florida residents. ©Facebook ‘I think we will definitely be opening it up to everybody, certainly before May 1 and, and maybe much sooner than that, so stay tuned there,” he added. He didn’t give any specific details on a timeline, but he did share that around 42,000 doses of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine should arrive in the state next week. If Florida is given more doses, DeSantis hopes to keep retail pharmacies stocked, stating that they have been “very effective” and that sending more doses there would be a great strategy for making the vaccine easier to get. Health and Safety sign We like to keep you posted on these updates because, in time, they could have an impact on the policies in place at Disney World and the rest of the theme parks in Florida. We have already seen Bob Chapek, the CEO of Disney commenting on vaccinations and how things could change in the parks surrounding their distribution. Stay tuned to DFB for all the latest details on health and safety measures and how they’ll impact your vacation plans. Need a COVID-19 test while visiting Disney World?

Magic Kingdom has some beloved attractions. Peter Pan’s Flight line Fantasyland, especially, is home to some iconic favorites. One super popular ride is Peter Pan’s Flight. This attraction has been receiving some mystery updates recently; first hidden behind construction walls and now a GIANT themed scrim. Now, we know a little bit more about the work. This morning, Walt Disney Imagineering filed a permit for the address coded to Peter Pan’s Flight. The permit calls for work to “remove, refurbish, and reinstall sign.” Permit Screenshot Currently, the construction scrim does NOT cover the main Peter Pan’s Flight sign. The permit doesn’t indicate if there’s another sign it’s referencing, so it may be the main signage for the attraction that’s set to get some TLC. More skrim We spotted a similar permit for Main Street Town Square Theater a few weeks ago. It was even with the same contractor! Yellow Cone Group, unsurprisingly, has a specialty in signage. Peter Pan’s Flight Disney World’s 50th Anniversary is this year and Disney teams have referenced a number of projects to spruce up the theme parks in preparation for the celebration. These sign projects could be a piece of making sure the Magic Kingdom looks spick and span! Peter Pan’s Flight We’ll be keeping a close eye on the Peter Pan’s Flight sign for work and on the current construction scrim for any changes. As always, stay tuned to DFB for the latest updates!

For some Disney fans, getting to Disney World over the past year has been difficult due to specific state health and safety guidelines and travel restrictions, such as the one that has closed borders between the U.S. and Canada, as well as between the U.S. and Mexico. Cinderella Castle Canadian travelers might be out of luck if they had plans to visit Disney World over spring break because the border between the U.S. and Canada is still closed and will remain that way at least a little longer. According to USA Today, the Department of Homeland Security has announced that the borders with Canada and Mexico will stay closed to non-essential travel until April 21st due to COVID-19. The DHS tweeted: The borders between the two countries have been closed for almost a full year, with Canada first enacting the closure last March — that closure continued to get extended into late 2020 and early 2021. Mickey near Spaceship Earth Canada has also enacted a cruise ban through 2022, which is why Disney Cruise Line has deleted Alaska Cruises from its site (U.S. maritime law currently requires international stops for Alaska cruises from the U.S.). A bill has been proposed to circumvent the cruise ban by not requiring that additional stop, and therefore allow Alaska cruises from the U.S. to resume. Disney Cruise Line pool However, travel is still allowed for Americans flying into Mexico — the only restricted travel is at the physical land border. Americans returning from the country via air must still have a negative COVID-19 test. We’re continuing to track all the changes in the travel industry right now, so stay tuned for more updates.

Disney World is going through a lot of changes right now. Concept Art ©Disney The parks aren’t just getting new attractions like TRON Lightcycle Run, some beloved attractions are also due for major refurbishments! One such ride is the Jungle Cruise in Magic Kingdom (and Disneyland too). A start date for the Jungle Cruise work has not been announced — but construction could be starting soon. This morning, Walt Disney Imagineering filed a permit for the address coded to the Jungle Cruise in Magic Kingdom. The permit is for “modifications and enhancements to include demo and installation of structural support, hardscapes, [and] electrical.” Permit Screenshot This is pretty MAJOR work. Even if it isn’t work on the new scenes and theming for the ride, demolition is typically a large-scale endeavor. This permit very likely signals the first step in the upcoming Jungle Cruise retheme. The Jungle Cruise As a reminder, the Jungle Cruise refurbishment is not a complete reimagining of the ride. Instead, a few scenes will be added to put the skippers even MORE at the forefront and to remove some negative depictions. The ride will feature new characters led by a skipper of their very own who have found themselves stranded in the wild jungles. Concept Art ©Disney Now, the contractor that the permit is filed with is Albu & Associates, Inc. This company is a general contractor that typically works on office buildings and retail. So, this work permit and work probably doesn’t have to do with any design or theming elements. Instead, it may be the basis for these elements. After all new structural support could be needed for the new scenes! Trader Sam Another important detail to note is that the expiration date for the work is January 29th, 2022. Keep in mind that this doesn’t necessarily give us an idea of when the entire refurbishment will be complete. Remember that this permit seems to be for support more than theming so the full refurbishment could take much longer. Also, keep in mind that Disney has already shared that refurbishments will begin “later this year.” Jungle Cruise Typically, these permits are filed a few days or weeks prior to the start of a project. So, we’ll be keeping a VERY close eye on the Jungle Cruise and news about it in the near future. And we will be watching closely to see when Disney shared more information.

Disney World’s 50th anniversary is fast approaching and we want to make sure you’re ready! ©Disney When it comes to where you can spend your October 1st (that’s the 50th!), you’ve got some choices to make. Magic Kingdom is sure to have an AMAZING celebration, but EPCOT will feature a brand-new ride. So, what should you do? We’re here to help! Availability First things first, we gotta talk about availability. As of right now, Disney expects to use the Disney Park Pass theme park reservation system through the 50th anniversary. That means that you need park admission AND a reservation to your park of choice. In some cases, those reservations are already gone. ©Disney Magic Kingdom is COMPLETELY unavailable for all ticket holders on October 1st. EPCOT is unavailable for Annual Passholders, but at the time of writing, regular ticket holders and resort guests can still snag an EPCOT reservation. ©Disney Parks Blog Availability may open up, but we’re not sure. The system is in place to keep capacity limited so if capacity is raised due to lifting health concerns by October, we may see more availability. Plus, Disney has added some more availability in the past. If you don’t have a reservation yet, we recommend keeping a close eye on the availability and DFB. We’ll let you know if more become available. Jaw. Dropping. Beauty. If you DO already have a Disney Park Pass for October 1st, then the decision might be made for you! Those reservations are hard to come by so stick with the one you have and make that your park for the day. As far as we know, park-hopping will be an option, so you could maybe even do BOTH parks. Click here to learn more about the Disney Park Pass system! Hours You can also consider park hours! Disney does tend to extend park hours on very busy days, but hours remain limited at this time due to the global health crisis. That may change by October, but we might still be contending with earlier-than-usual nights by the 50th. ©Disney The most that hours have been extended was on New Year’s Eve. That day, Magic Kingdom was open from 8AM to 11PM and EPCOT was open from 10AM to 10PM. If the parks have a similar extension for the 50th, you’ll have more hours in the parks on the 50th if you spend them in Magic Kingdom. Want to learn more about how hours were extended during the holidays? Click here. Crowds As you can probably tell from the already-gone Disney Park Pass reservations, Disney World is expected to be absolutely SLAMMED on October 1st. A big anniversary like this is a major draw for Disney fans. EPCOT A very busy Magic Kingdom can feel VERY crowded, whereas a very busy EPCOT sometimes feels slightly less so due to the size of the park. Still, it’s going to feel busy, busy, busy no matter what park you’re in. To see a busy EPCOT day, click here! Decorations As you might have heard, the Disney World parks are getting some spiffy decorations for the 50th celebrations. Magic Kingdom will feature a whole new look on Cinderella Castle and more decorations around the park. ©Disney Decorations have already started going up on the castle! The castle is looking so pretty! EPCOT on the other hand will have beautiful new lighting on Spaceship Earth. Both of these icons are sure to be a sight to see but keep in mind that Spaceship Earth’s new look is PERMANENT. So, you don’t have to visit that park during the 18 months (!!!) of celebrations. Cinderella Castle will only have its makeover for a limited time. ©Disney Disney has already given us a first look at the new Spaceship Earth lighting! ©Zach Riddley via Instagram (@thezachriddley) In addition to this, Mickey and Minnie will both be getting special outfits for the anniversary. ©Disney We’re not sure if they’ll appear all dressed up in just Magic Kingdom or if they’ll have their special ‘fits in EPCOT too. Click here to learn more about the 50th decorations! New Attractions So far, you might be thinking that Magic Kingdom will have more going on during the 50th. Au contraire! Though Magic Kingdom was supposed to debut TRON Lightcycle Run in time for the 50th, that coaster may have been delayed. TRON Lightcycle Run ©Disney We have yet to hear an update on when it will open officially. Read MORE about TRON Lightcycle Run here! EPCOT on the other hand will be welcoming the remainder of the France Expansion including Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, a new trackless dark ride based on Pixar’s Ratatouille. This attraction is HIGHLY anticipated and is sure to be BLAST. ©Disney If your focus is less on fun celebrations and more on brand-new rides, you might want to make EPCOT your pick for the big day. Want to learn more about the opening of Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure? Click here! Overall, EPCOT and Magic Kingdom both present VERY good options for Walt Disney World’s 50th Anniversary. Again, park hopping might get you the ability to do BOTH — as long as you can snag a Disney Park Pass before they’re completely gone.

Disney is OBSESSED with details. Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway They’ll go the extra mile to add in a secret or two when it comes to constructing a park, theming a new attraction, or creating a new experience. And, a lot of it is so secretive that the average park-goer will completely miss it. From nods to history to secret levels in rides and loads of other cool things only Disney can do — we’re letting you in on all the secrets that Disney packed into Hollywood Studios to make the park extra special for new and long-time visitors. Park Entrance You’re barely even in the park when Disney starts throwing hidden details at you! Right after you scan your park ticket, you’ll spot a retro gas station to your right. Unless you’re looking to rent a stroller (which can be done at this location), you might buzz right by without even a second glance. BUT, this is the home to our first Hollywood Studios secret. Hollywood Studio’s Entrance If you look closely, one of the gas pumps displays 05-01-1989. That’s the date that Hollywood Studios opened! And, real Disney history buffs will know that the park actually opened under another name — MGM Studios. 6 Things You’ll Only Remember If You Were a Die-Hard Disney World Kid! Chinese Theater As you make your way down Hollywood Boulevard, you’re welcomed by one of the park’s landmarks –the Chinese Theater. And, this theater is a lot cooler than you might think. Yes, it is the home to Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, but that’s not what we’re talking about! The theater is actually an exact replica of the Grauman Chinese Theater in Los Angeles, California. Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway And when we say exact, we mean it! If you were to look at photos of the two next to each other, you might not guess which one is in Disney World if it weren’t for the ride logo. Disney Imagineers used the same blueprints that the original theater was constructed with back in 1927. And, they even added footprints and handprints from all the stars who have graced the Chinese Theatre at Hollywood Studios with their presence! Chinese Theater Handprints So, why did Disney choose this to be the symbol of Hollywood Studios? Well, many notable Hollywood stars have been to the original theater (and placed their signature, handprints, and footprints in the concrete) and it was the location where Star Wars: Episode IV — A New Hope premiered in 1977 (along with MANY other movie premieres still to this day!). It seems fitting that the park themed after all the glitz and glam of Hollywood have a noteworthy theater at the center. For more fun facts about Hollywood Studios, click HERE! Indiana Jones Stunt Show This secret is one that will make you feel like you’re doing something wrong, but you’re actually unlocking a hidden secret at Hollywood Studios! To find this one, you’ll want to head over to Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular, but don’t go all the way in! Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular Near the entrance to the theater, you’ll spot a well that is dug into the ground with a pulley system. Next to it, a sign says “Warning! Do Not Pull Rope.” It’s 100% sending mixed messages and basically begging you to pull it — so pull it! Indiana Jones Stunt Spectacular Theater Entrance Put on your listening ears when you pull the rope because you just might hear something coming from that well! Funny enough, this same gag exists on the West Coast in Disneyland at Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Forbidden Eye! So, yes, this is a rule you SHOULD break at Disney World (and Disneyland!). Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster Speaking of listening, you’ve REALLY got to pay attention to catch the next Hollywood Studios secret. There are a ton of little hidden details on Rock ‘n Roller Coaster, but this one is so intricate that we kind of want to give it a standing ovation. Rock n’ Rollercoaster Every ride vehicle has a different Aerosmith song playing on you high speed journey, but if you happen to hear “Love in an Elevator” blast over the speakers, listen closely! The lyrics to the song are changed to “Love on a roller coaster” — how fitting! Aerosmith actually rerecorded this version of their song just for the ride! Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster If you’re hunting for more hidden secrets on your super-stretch limo tour, listen for the names being called over the P.A. (they’re the Imagineers that worked on the ride) and take a peek at the license plates on the ride vehicles! Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run Pull out a notebook for this one, because this secret is one that you have to unlock! Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge is the home to the Millennium Falcon and, while Han Solo is away, the kids will play. You and a crew of five others can team up and test your pilot skills to help Hondo Ohnaka collect coaxium canisters from around the galaxy. As much as we love hearing Hono Ohnaka dis us for hitting obstacles, there’s a way to unlock an even better co-pilot — Chewbacca! Smugglers Run Queue No kind of luck is going to bring Chewie into the cockpit — you have to follow some pretty exact steps! Here’s how it’s done. Both pilots need to move their controls to the far left or right and far up and down BEFORE pushing the activation button. And, the rest of the crew needs to hit one of the white buttons on their controls before hitting the orange activation button. Inside the Millennium Falcon Cockpit Do all this before the Cast Member secures the cabin and clears you for take-off and you’ll be taking a flight with Chewie himself! Be warned though, Chewie speaks Shyriiwook, which sounds a whole lot like yelling to us English speakers. May the force be with you. Check out MORE details about the Chewie Hack on Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway Before Disney even opened Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway at Walt Disney World, they revealed that we should expect a subplot and secret Easter eggs hidden within the ride. And, wow did they deliver! But one of the coolest secrets in the ride isn’t something that you can see, it’s something that you hear! Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway A few of the sound effects incorporated into the ride were developed using the original equipment from the 1930s. And, one of those is the same tri-tone whistle used in Mickey’s Mouse’s debut cartoon back in 1928! Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway You’ll hear the OG locomotive whistle whenever Goofy sounds the Runamuck Railway. Another fun audio factoid? Minnie was voiced by Russi Taylor (her final role voicing Minnie over a long career). Her real-life husband, Wayne Allwine, was the voice of Mickey Mouse for over 30 years! Here are MORE Hidden Secrets on Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway! Star Tours Now that we can travel to Batuu, Star Tours hasn’t gotten nearly as much love as it once did. But, if you’re a Star Wars stan, this is still a must-do ride and PACKED with some top-secret details that you can decode. Star Tours As you’re waiting in the queue, you’ll see R2-D2 and C-3PO getting ready for flight. They’re a fun bunch to watch, but you’ll want to direct your attention to P.A. system. You’ll hear them paging for a passenger named “Egroeg Sacul.” Spell that backward and you get George Lucas! Star Tours Queue You’ll also hear a boarding call announcement that mentions a landspeeder THX 1138 and a Flight 1138. THX 1138 was actually the first movie that George Lucas directed! Both of these details are so cool that it kind of makes us sad when the ride is a walk-on and we don’t get time to appreciate all the fun things hidden in this queue. Keep an eye and ear out next time you ride — there are LOTS more easter eggs here! Tower of Terror The Hollywood Tower Hotel isn’t only a landmark on Sunshine Boulevard, it can actually also been seen from EPCOT. Yep, the parks are THAT close together! At first glance, you likely won’t notice anything unusual when you’re looking across the World Showcase Lagoon at the Morocco Pavilion (Norway is a great spot to catch this). Pay close attention and you’ll see that Tower of Terror is actually in the background. Disney knew that you’d be able to see the building from EPCOT, so they designed it to blend right in with Morocco! Tower of Terror And, you’ll score some major points for knowing this secret about Tower of Terror. Disney often disguises a 0 minute wait time as “unlucky” 13 minutes on the stand-by entrance sign! Tower of Terror So whenever you see that cursed number, you can bet that the ride is likely a walk-on. Everything You NEED to Know About Disney World’s Tower of Terror Attraction Character Palooza Back when Disney was hosting character meet-and-greets, there was a SUPER secret opportunity to meet some of the rarest Disney characters at Disney World! So secret, it wasn’t even published on any Disney time guides. Character Palooza allowed guests to meet characters-in-training from the finale of Hollywood Studio’s nighttime show, Fantasmic. Fantasmic! Riverboat If you’ve ever seen the show, you’ll know that some highly sought after, hard to meet characters could be spotted on the finale riverboat and those are the characters that showed up to the party! Character Palooza only lasted a few minutes at various secret locations but it could mean meeting upwards of 10 characters or so at once! It wasn’t really something you could plan for, but if you caught it you’d be rewarded with LOADS of cool character interactions. Hopefully, this will return to Hollywood Studios once we can meet characters again because it really kept us on our toes! 4 Super Secret Things You Never Knew Happened At Disney World! Gertie’s Ice Cream of Extinction If you find yourself in Holllywood Studios craving something cold, creamy, and delicious, you might end up in front of the big, green dinosaur that lives in the pond referred to as Echo Lake. You may wonder, why did Disney put this ginormous Brontosaurus in the middle of the park and then slap an ice-cream shop inside? Well, this gentle giant isn’t any average dinosaur — meet Gertie. Dinosaur Gertie’s Ice Cream of Extinction at Echo Lake Gertie was the creation of New York Times animator, Windsor McCay. McCay is widely considered the father of animation and his animation Gertie The Dinosaur was one of the first to be brought to life on the screen back in 1914. Hollywood Studios Christmas Decor McCay’s work on the cartoon paved the way for Walt Disney and his animation studio and would have served as some sort of inspiration. Oh, and why ice cream? The tagline for Gertie The Dinosaur was “Gertie — She’s a Scream” and Disney Imagineers thought it only appropriate to bring the “prehistoric” cartoon to life screaming for ice cream. MORE of the story behind Gertie’s Ice Cream of Extinction! Toy Story Land You didn’t think Disney would construct an entirely new land without some secret details, did you? Over in Toy Story Land, you become a toy in Andy’s backyard and pretend that the only worry is whether your human is coming home to play with you. And, one of the hidden details that’s in every Pixar movie is actually hidden in the land! You’re going to have to look REAL hard for this one. Woody’s Lunch Box Outside of Woody’s Lunch Box, there are some dominoes and blocks in a small grassy strip. Take a look at those dominoes and you’ll spot the numbers 1, 1, and 3. Then, glance up at the building blocks and you’ll see the letter A. So, what is this secret code that you have to hack? What could A113 mean?! Woody’s Lunch Box area A1-13 is actually the room at Cal Arts that many of the original Pixar animators studied and perfected their craft! But don’t go thinking Pixar came up with this one — this actually is much more far-reaching! While the Disney and Pixar references are possibly the most well-known, MANY students who passed through that famed room went on to sneak the reference into films, like The Truman Show or even one of the Mission: Impossible films, TV shows, like The Simpsons or WandaVision, and even video games! So, it’s a nod to the room where it all started to happen! Just How Well Do You REALLY Know Disney World’s Hollywood Studios? Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Over on the planet of Batuu in Hollywood Studios, there are SO MANY Star Wars Easter eggs. So, we’re going to let you in on a few of the secrets of the galaxy. Batuu Marketplace is the home to a lot of creatures, and you’ll even spot some crawling through the pipes. If you take a sip from the water fountain at the entrance to the marketplace, you’ll notice that there is a slimy, one-eyed creature peeping back at you. This is a Dianoga (or Trash Compactor Monster, if you’ve seen Star Wars: A New Hope!) and there’s even a note in Aurebesh below him warning you not to drink from there! The Sneaky Dianoga! A Cast Member is sure to be able to explain how normal of an occurrence that is on Batuu and they’ll even give you some details about their life on the planet. Yes, they are TRULY inhabitants of Batuu! Don’t expect them to break character! Galaxy’s Edge Cast Members Each Cast Member has a detailed backstory that they’ve come up with and they are happy to share their thoughts on the First Order or help out the Resistance if needed.

For the first time in OVER a year, we’re enjoying so tons of different areas in Disney California Adventure Park (DCA) as part of the “A Touch of Disney” ticketed event. Lamplight Lounge During this event, there are Disney characters all around, special new music, and even awesome photo ops. But, there’s also FOOD!! Lamplight Lounge has been closed at DCA since last year…until NOW. We had QUITE the interesting time getting a reservation for this spot, but now we finally got the chance to step inside! Want to take a look at this beautiful restaurant with us? Of course you do! Let’s go!! Atmosphere If you’re wondering where Lamplight Lounge is located, it’s over in the Pixar Pier area of the park. Pixar Pier A few years ago, Lamplight Lounge actually took over what was once Cove Bar (upstairs) and Ariel’s Grotto (downstairs). Lamplight Lounge The restaurant actually pays tribute to the films of Pixar AND the artists who bring Pixar stories to life. Basically, if you’re a Pixar fan, you’re going to LOVE it here! We were seated outside for our meal, but you can get a FULL look at the decor in Lamplight Lounge by taking a peek at our review from when it first opened. Click here to get a FULL look at all of the Lamplight Lounge Pixar decor and hear about the restaurant’s backstory. Lamplight Lounge is only offering outdoor seating at this time. As is to be expected due to COVID-19 regulations, we noticed that the tables were spread out with plenty of room. Tables Undoubtedly though, one of the BIG draws of Lamplight Lounge is its view of Pixar Pier. We could sit here and look at this view ALL DAY. The gorgeous view Okay, but enough about the atmosphere already! Lamplight Lounge After we checked in for our dining reservation it was time to get EATING! Food During A Touch of Disney, Lamplight Lounge will be offering a few main food items, kids’ items, novelty items (including those Sapphire Glow Cubes we’ve seen before), and some assorted wine, beer, and more. Potato Skins at Lamplight Lounge When we were seated, we were given a paper menu! Menu The menu features a selection of food from Lobster Nachos to Burgers… Food Menu …as well as beer and wine… Beer Menu …and several Pixar-themed cocktails. Cocktail Menu We started out with two secret menu drinks which includes the Neverland Iced Tea… That’s a HEFTY meal. We’ll be bringing you a FULL review of the items later, but we couldn’t wait to share these mouth-watering photos with you and give you a first look at this newly reopened spot! Overall, many of the procedures we experienced here are similar to what was done at Carthay Circle Lounge previously in terms of mask requirements and social distancing. Stay tuned for our full review and more photos, videos, and ALL kinds of details from A Touch of Disney! We’re Live From A Touch of Disney!

There’s a LOT of food we’ve been missing from Disneyland Resort over the last year, and we’re not just talking about your classics like Dole Whips and Mickey pretzels. Yep — that’s DOLE WHIP! We missed EVERY dining spot, especially Bengal Barbecue over in Disneyland Park’s Adventureland! So, we were STOKED to find some Bengal Barbecue favorites at Cocina Cucamonga during the A Touch of Disney event at Disney’s California Adventure! We spotted the Banyan Beef Skewer, Chieftain Chicken Skewer, and Bengal Beef Skewer from Bengal Barbecue on the menu there, as well as Tacos de Papa and Asian-style Beef Barbacoa Street Tacos! Cocina Cucamonga menu And, uh, we got it all as well as a Jalapeno Bacon Peanut Brittle! (What can we say, we REALLY missed Disneyland food!) Pretty much the ENTIRE menu! We started with a classic, the Banyan Beef Skewer, which comes slathered in a hot and spicy sauce. As always, this has a nice peppery flavor and kick to it. It’s a little bit beyond “Disney spicy.” For $5.49, this is quite the snack! Banyan Beef Skewer Because we love beef, next we dove into the Bengal Beef Skewer. This one comes in a Sweet Zulu Sauce and costs $5.49! It tends to remind us of teriyaki sauce, which isn’t a bad thing. If the Banyan Beef Skewer is truly spicy, then this one is truly sweet! Bengal Beef Skewer Now, onto the chicken! Specifically, the Chieftan Chicken Skewer, which comes with a Polynesian Sauce, which is sweet, spicy, and oh-so-satisfying. There’s a reason Bengal Barbecue is one of the spots we’re most excited to revisit when Disneyland reopens! Especally because this skewer is just $4.99! Chieftan chicken skewer! It’s been TOO LONG! Now, it’s TACO TIME! We got the Asian-style Beef Barbacoa Street Tacos, which cost $7.99 and come with Braised Beef, Pickled Onions, Ginger, Cucumber, and Serrano Peppers all in Corn Tortillas. We previously had these at the 2020 Disney California Adventure Food and Wine Festival’s LA Style booth! And just like last year, these were PACKED with flavor and a great value for under $10! TACOS! And, because you can never have TOO many tacos, we also sampled the Tacos de Papa, which are also $7.99 and come with Crispy Potato, Cabbage Slaw with Grilled Onions, Cilantro and Salsa de Molcajete in Corn Tortillas! This is a plant-based taco option for all you veggie lovers! Tacos de Papa We finished things up on a low note, the new Jalapeño-Bacon Peanut Brittle. It was quite chewy, not crunchy, and there was a strong artificial smoke flavor we didn’t care for. But, hey, if you’re all about that chewy, smoky life, you can give this a shot for $4.99. SMOKY, but not satisfying Despite that little slop, it was SO SATISFYING to have some of our favorites again at A Touch of Disney! We’ll be back at this festival and keeping you updated on ALL things in regards to this and Disneyland’s upcoming historic reopening, so stay tuned to DFB!

It’s quite the day over in Disney California Adventure as the park is welcoming guests back during the A Touch of Disney event! Magnet and Button! We’ve already taken you with us for a sneak peek of the eats and drinks at spots like Cluck a Doodle Moo, California Craft Brews, and Smokejumpers Grill. But, we thought we’d feast like a Californian as we stop by LA Style for a bite! Menu LA Style is throwing it back to Disney California Food & Wine Festivals of the past to bring seasonal favorites to the menu for guests to enjoy, inspired by southland food trucks. LA Style And, of course, we were there to try it all! Menu LA Style has two sandwiches and a cocktail on the menu, a Pork Belly Bánh Mi, for $8 and a plant-based Impossible Cheeseburger Mac ‘n’ Cheese with a Special Burger Sauce for $8. The cocktail is the Honey Bourbon Lemonade for $13. LA Style Menu Sounds good enough, but how does it taste?! Food First up, we tried the Pork Belly Bánh Mi, which features marinated and grilled pork belly placed on a Crispy Baguette with Pickled Daikon, Carrots, Sliced Cucumber, Jalapeño, Cilantro, and Seasoned Mayonnaise. Pork Belly Bahn MI We’re not going to lie — this sandwich had WAY TOO MUCH bread! It’s kind of a shame, because the pork belly was well seasoned and the vegetables were crisp and yummy, but all we could taste was the BREAD. You may still like this if you want a sandwich that’s a bit unique, but beware: Ya gotta LOVE bread! SO MUCH BREAD! There was no bread in sight on the Impossible Cheeseburger Mac ‘n’ Cheese, thankfully. If you’ve been eating plant-based but are missing a good ol’ fashioned burger, this just may be the dish for you! The sauce REALLY replicates that classic fast food flavor! Impossible Cheeseburger Mac and Cheese She ain’t pretty, but that burger sauce (think In-n-Out!) really packs a punch! This is a fun vegetarian-friendly option at A Touch of Disney! All about that SAUCE LA Style also has Allergy Friendly versions of these eats, so guests aren’t excluded from trying everything on the menu! Drink While you’re at LA Style, you can also sip on the Honey Bourbon Lemonade for $13, which is made with Bourbon Whiskey, Amber Honey, and fresh Lemon Juice. This drink is SO refreshing and smooth. If you like honey and lemonade, this is the drink for you. The bourbon isn’t so, so strong, so it doesn’t overpower the summery flavors. Honey Bourbon Lemonade This isn’t called a Lemonade with Honey and Bourbon for a reason, we tasted the honey flavor primarily, so if you’re not sweet on honey, this is NOT the drink for you. But this adult lemonade is really good for folks who can’t wait for sunny sips! So refreshing! Disney California Adventure’s dining locations are open from 12 PM to 8 PM PST for ticketed guests. And, we STILL have more restaurants and food booths to visit! So, you can hop along with us as we give you the full “A Touch of Disney” tour.
