If you have kids traveling with you, or family members that love the water, choosing a resort with a great pool can be essential to your Disney World vacation! Disney’s BoardWalk Inn Pool If you’ve ever stayed at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn, then you probably DISTINCTLY remember what the pool looks like there — you can’t miss the giant clown slide! However, the Keister Coaster (the official name for the clown slide) went under refurbishment a few months ago, and Disney later revealed that the slide would be getting an all-new look. The new version of the slide will feature Mickey and friends, and today we got another look at the progress! Two days ago, Imagineer Zach Riddley shared a photo of the slide on his Instagram (@thezachriddley), and in the picture, we could see Mickey Mouse along with the name of the slide. However, there was a problem — on the new design, Keister was misspelled as Kiester. We all make mistakes, folks. As Hannah Montana would say, “Everybody makes mistakes. Everybody has those days.” ©Zach Riddley via Instagram (@thezachriddley) Disney realized their mistake, and Zach later took down the post and shared on his Instagram story that they felt “goofy” about the typo. Even Imagineers make mistakes! ©Zach Riddley via Instagram (@thezachriddley) But this morning, we got a NEW version of the post, and this one came with more details, so we’re definitely not upset! The first picture gives proof that they did indeed fix the spelling mistake — it now correctly says “Keister!” ©Disney | Photo: Zach Riddley via Instagram (@thezachriddley) The second photo gives us a better look at which friends are joining Mickey on the slide — it’s Goofy and Minnie! They look like they’re all having a blast. ©Disney | Photo: Zach Riddley via Instagram (@thezachriddley) Daisy is also there and it looks like she’s enjoying a relaxing day in the sun. She looks as sassy and stylish as usual — where can we get those sunglasses? ©Disney | Photo: Zach Riddley via Instagram (@thezachriddley) It’s not very fun to make mistakes, but this one brought us some extra photos and a more thorough sneak peek, so thanks, Disney! We’re interested to see what the slide looks like once it’s completed and we will be following the progress.

As Disney focused folks, we tend to talk a LOT about Disney+. RAYA AND THE LAST DRAGON – Sisu is a magical, mythical, self-deprecating dragon. © 2020 Disney. All Rights Reserved. Recently, Disney dropped a TON of announcements for upcoming content and, on top of all of that, a PRICE increase, too! Netflix also had a bit of a price increase recently! Now, we’re wondering how the price of Disney+ will compare to other major streaming services, so let’s take a look! Disney+ Since it was launched, Disney+ has cost $6.99 per month or $69.99 per year. Starting on March 26, 2021, Disney+ subscription prices in the U.S. will be INCREASED to $7.99 per month or $79.99 per year. You can also get a bundle with ESPN+ and Hulu for $12.99 per month. ©Disney A $1 per month price increase is definitely significant, but Disney+ is still one of the cheapest of the major streaming services. Part of this is due to its relative newness and still-growing content library. In fact, with a goal of 100+ new titles on Disney+ in each coming year, the service could catch up to other giants quick. In the meantime, we’ll take not having to spend the extra bucks to watch our favorite Disney flicks. Netflix Don’t believe us? Let’s look at the others. Netflix has three different pricing options for three-tiered plans. The Basic Plan includes good video quality at 480p resolution on a max of one screen at a time for $8.99 per month, the Standard Plan includes better video quality at 1080p resolution on a max of two screens at a time for $13.99 per month, and the Premium Plan includes the best video quality at 4K+HDR resolution on a max of four screens at a time for $17.99 per month. ©Netflix These prices are new as of late October when this streaming service raised Standard prices by $1 from $13 and Premium prices by $2 from $16, per CNN. Netflix is one of the most established streaming services and has been around since the start of the industry. We certainly appreciate the flexible pricing scale so that you can pick a plan that fits your habits. Disney+ is still cheaper than the lowest-tier plan, but Netflix has far more titles. But as stated above, Disney is pushing to catch up. Hulu Hulu, though owned by Disney, has some different prices than Disney+. The base level of the service is actually CHEAPER than Disney+ at $5.99 per month or $59.99 per year, though this option does have ads. Hulu with No Ads costs $11.99 per month and there are two plans that include Live TV as a cable replacement for a much higher cost. ©Hulu The reason Hulu’s base level is less expensive than Disney+’s is that Hulu is an ad-supported streaming service. When you watch a show or movie at the base level of a Hulu subscription, you’ll see your content paused for ads to play. This allows Disney to collect ad revenue while giving viewers lower prices. HBO Max HBO Max is another popular service with a number of hit titles such as Game of Thrones and Lovecraft Country. This service costs $14.99 a month and is also available as an add-on to Hulu plans for the same price. ©HBO HBO Max is definitely the priciest of the service options due to its premium content offerings. It is pretty crazy to think that a subscription to HBO Max costs about DOUBLE a Disney+ subscription. Overall, despite Disney+’s WILD success, this price increase still leaves the service at a competitive pricing point. It is cheaper than Netflix but not by much. It seems Disney is still treating the service as if it is in its infancy, which it is. In fact, Disney+ still has some time to go before it is even profitable for the company. We sure hope this info helped you inform some of your streaming decisions as we head into a new year and a whole new price category for Disney+!

We’re all ready to turn the page on 2020, right? If you’re thinking about how great it would be to take a Walt Disney World Resort vacation next year, I have some excellent news to share.http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/DisneyParks/~4/fx1J-7scvvw View the full article

8-Year-Old Jackson Tries Out New Prosthetic Legs for the First Time at Disney’s Hollywood Studios View the full article

A trip to Disney World is a special event and, as such, you might be tempted to just throw money at every activity, experience, and upgrade available. You want it to be the BEST trip ever, right?! Magic Kingdom And there are SO many things to splurge on, including special tours, dining experiences, and ticket add-ons. But for many of us, a lot of these splurges are unnecessary, so let’s look at which ones just aren’t worth it. Because a lot of things at Disney World are different right now due to the global health crisis, we’re going to separate this list to account for what’s not worth it RIGHT NOW (meaning a lot of stuff that’s not available or limited) and what wasn’t worth it pre-closure (and potentially in the future). Let’s go! What Disney World Splurges That Are Not Worth it Post-Closure Preferred Parking The parks are only operating at 35% capacity right now, so getting a parking spot close to the entrances isn’t as difficult as it used to be. Although paying for preferred parking might be a nice splurge when the parks are a lot fuller, we think it’s not worth it at the moment. Preferred parking costs $20-25 dollars MORE than the standard parking fee of $25, so it’s worth considering if you really need to save those couple of extra steps. East Tram and Preferred Parking sign However, parking trams are not operating right now, and if you have mobility issues or are worried about walking from your parking spot to the park entrances, you might want to still consider preferred parking. Click here to learn more about the parking trams not running Select Dining Experiences Things are a lot different at restaurants now, too, and that’s particularly true of those that have certain sought-after views. For example, California Grill at the top of Disney’s Contemporary Resort has a spectacular view of Magic Kingdom’s fireworks, but since fireworks are on hold right now, is it worth dining there? Fireworks view from California Grill This would also apply to Narcoossee’s at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, the Rose and Crown Pub and Dining Room at EPCOT or any other waterfront dining in World Showcase (at least until Harmonious debuts), and Topolino’s Terrace – Flavors of the Riviera at Disney’s Riviera Resort, which all have great viewing for nighttime shows. Of course, if you’re just going for the food, then we’re not going to judge you for your choices! If part of the appeal of these locations-with-a-view was the extra entertainment that came with it, it may be worth holding off until you can get the full experience once again. Click here to see our most recent review of California Grill! Paying for a Deluxe Stay at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort Although Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is only open to DVC members right now, we think it’s not worth it to spend the extra dollars (or DVC points) to stay there. At least not right now. For starters, the Monorail isn’t running right now. Many of the Polynesian’s most popular restaurants and watering holes, like ‘Ohana and Trader Sam’s, are also closed while the Great Ceremonial House is under construction (but you can still get your bread pudding fix elsewhere – whew). Polynesian Grand Ceremonial House Construction The resort is undergoing a massive refurbishment for the next year, and is expected to open to guests next summer, with all-new Moana-inspired rooms and updates to the lobby and exterior! If one of the main reasons you’d consider staying at this (pricey) resort is the convenient transportation option with the Monorail or all the food and theming, perhaps hold off until next summer to really get your money’s worth. Click here to learn more about the refurb coming to the Polynesian! Park Hopper Ticket Add-On Park hopping is returning to Disney World in January, but will it be worth it? It’s an additional $65 to $85 per trip, but the new policies in place could prevent you from park hopping when and where you want. First, you must have a Park Pass reservation for the first park you visit each day. Then you’re only allowed to hop to another park (without a reservation) after 2PM IF there’s availability. Animal Kingdom Entrance Therein lies the rub: if the park you’re hopping to is at capacity, you’re out of luck and you’ll just have to go somewhere else. If you have a dining reservation at that second park and it’s at capacity, you not be allowed to get in. At least, this is all as far as we know at this time about how the upcoming system will work. Magic Kingdom And although park-to-park transportation is reportedly returning, it still might take a lot of time to get to/from parks because each bus has limited capacity. Also, keep in mind if you were hoping to hop on over to Hollywood Studios to score an elusive boarding group for Rise of the Resistance, you’re out of luck. Only guests who have Park Passes to Hollywood Studios can score boarding groups at 7AM or at the new 1PM second release. Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Although it’s not a HUGE splurge, it could become a hassle to manage hopping from park to park with an entire family in tow. It all comes down to how your family prefers to do Disney World, though. If Park Hopping was a crucial aspect of your Disney World vacations and it just doesn’t feel right without it, this may be for you. Truth be told, come January 1st once we see Park Hopping in action, this may go from something we say skip to a must-do. FOR NOW, until that’s clear, it might be worth saving your pennies. Click to learn more about what we know (so far) about Dining Reservations and Park Hopping What Disney World Splurges That Are Not Worth It Pre-Closure Now for the stuff that we remember. The stuff that’s on hold still or hasn’t returned in the way it had been before the parks closed for an unprecedented amount of time this year. Here’s the stuff that (when and IF they return) we think are worth considering skipping. Dessert Parties Dessert parties are one of those things that we don’t feel are always worth it unless you’re celebrating something special and want to go all out or will only settle for the perfect fireworks view. In that case, they do deliver because you DO get a great view and some sweets and light snacks. While these parties do offer all-you-can-eat desserts, you’re paying a lot for a plate or two of sweets and a nice view. Dessert Party Plate Just how much are you shelling out for a reserved table, a couple of chocolate-covered strawberries, cheese cubes, and maybe a Bud Light? The Happily Ever After dessert parties got a price increase earlier this year. The price for the Happily Ever After with Tomorrowland Terrace Viewing jumped from $84 to a whopping $99 per person. The Plaza Garden Viewing and the After Fireworks parties increased from $69 to $79. Happily Ever After Dessert Party But that price increase did come with a nice bonus: BOOZE. The parties also come with a choice of select beers and wines, which could make dessert parties a little more worth it for some. There are other dessert parties in the other parks too, including the Frozen-themed Dessert Party that previously took place during IllumiNations in EPCOT, and more. If you have a larger family, you could end up spending a lot of $$ on a very brief event, so really contemplate if this is worth it for your family to splurge on.  Bibbidi Bobbodi Boutique Okay, so we get that some parents will swear that taking their kids to Bibbidi Bobbodi Boutique to be transformed into a princess or knight is the best thing they ever did for their children, but guys — it’s SO expensive for what it is (especially if you opt for the costume, too!). Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique in Magic Kingdom – still closed. The cheapest package is the Crown Package, which is $74.95 per child. This includes hairstyling, makeup, a princess sash, and nail polish. This is all literally stuff you could do at home, or in the hotel room, before hitting the parks. If you’re wanting a full princess gown or knight costume included, though, it’s going to cost at least $199.95 per child. And considering you can often find the same dresses in the park — or online — for much less (and often on sale), that’s a little steep. Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique ©Disney Reservations are also hard to get, so there’s the element of stress involved in finding a time that’s right for you. If you do score one, it might be at a location requiring ample travel time (the Grand Floridian, Magic Kingdom, and Disney Springs all have locations). This is an “everyone stop their Disney day so we can go watch little Timmy or Susie have a magical transformation” type of an ordeal. The process can take HOURS (after all, you’re paying top dollar), which eats into valuable park time. When all is said and done, yep, your kiddo will look awesome, but, in our experience, we heard “the dress is hot and itchy” followed by wiping off the makeup, chipping off the nail polish, and pulling out that fancy bun within an hour. If your kiddo has the stamina to sweat through scratchy thick tulle and satin for hours in the heat with half a gallon of hairspray in their hair, they might get a lot of value out of this. We’ve seen some parents keep their kids’ hair in that bun for days — even through swimming! In our experiences though, this is a fun thing to say we did but we don’t need to repeat. Dining Plan Okay, so we know saying that the Dining Plan is not worth it is a controversial opinion, so hear us out. The value of the price paid for the dining plan isn’t great unless you plan on eating a lot of expensive food throughout the entire trip. Disney Dining Plan Shirt It’s also a LOT of food. We don’t know about you, but we always end up with a ton of snack credits at the end of our stay and find ourselves buying everything we can from our hotel gift shop that’s eligible to take home with us. Some, however, might see that as a bonus (it sure can feel like free snacks for the ride home!). BBQ Burger HOWEVER, we know that Disney offers a free dining plan occasionally if you book a resort stay at full price. And well, free food IS FREE food, right? But you’re still paying full price for the hotel room, so it comes down to this question: is that free food as valuable as a room discount could be? Also keep in mind — that “free” or out-of-pocket dining plan does not include tips so that $200 dollar steak dinner you just enjoyed might still end up STILL costing you about $40 bucks. Is the Dining Plan worth it? We broke down all the numbers here! VIP Tours Now we know that the VIP tours offer a lot of valuable information and insight into Disney World, and some people love that. They are VERY expensive, though, and, again, take away from valuable park time depending on the tour you select (it depends on what your priorities are). For example, something like the Keys to the Kingdom Tour is FIVE HOURS and involves a lot of walking around in the hot Florida sun. Taste of Magic Kingdom VIP Food Tour Lanyard Some tours DO focus on taking you on the biggest rides, like the Ultimate Day of Thrills VIP Tour for $349 per person. Others, like the Backstage Magic 7-hour tour for $275 per person, focus on the behind-the-scenes action in the parks — meaning lots of walking, listening, and not a lot of riding! Yes, sometimes getting to see some of the behind-the-scenes stuff is pretty magical. But some of the tours don’t allow photography or video, which means you won’t get to capture some of those memories to look at later. So it comes down to what your vacation priorities are. If it’s your dream to walk in the Utilidors under the Magic Kingdom, that comes at a price. If you just want to ride all the rides as fast as you can and not wait in line, they have a tour for you too, but again, it’ll cost ya. Memory Maker Here’s another controversial question: is Memory Maker worth it? Are you willing to stop and get photos EVERYWHERE you see a Photopass photographer, even if there’s a line? After all, Memory Maker gets you free digital copies of ALL the photos you take with photographers or on rides for not-so-low price of $169 before your trip starts or $199 during or after your vacation. The only way to make the cost of Memory Maker worth it is to get as many photos as possible, right?? Pluto and a PhotoPass Photographer Do you really want ALL your ride photos? You may answer, “yes” to all of the above, and if you do, great! Memory Maker might be a better value now considering that Photopass photographers are not allowed to touch guests’ phones and cameras, effectively stopping them from helping you take “free” pictures of your family. “Capture Your Moment” Memory Maker If you’re going for a long trip and plan to meet a lot of characters and use a lot of the Magicshots offered, it might be worth it for you. There is another option though — if you’re wanting to splurge and get all those photos PLUS some additional perks, we recommend having one member of your family get an Annual Pass. This comes with plenty of discounts on rooms, merchandise, dining, AND free Memory Maker! It’s a much bigger upfront cost, but the savings across the board could make it worthwhile. Just one person in your group needs to have a Pass for everyone to take advance of its benefits! Click here to learn more about Memory Maker. Certain Dining Experiences Sure, dining at Cinderella’s Royal Table in Magic Kingdom lets you eat inside Cinderella Castle, but it’s also EXPENSIVE! Before the park’s closure, it was almost $100 per person! That’s $400 for a family of four! Yes, you get to meet the princesses and, again, dine inside the castle, but for that price the food should be phenomenal, and, in our experiences, it’s…just OK. Cinderella’s Royal Table Honestly, if your big goal in life is to eat inside the castle, we say go for it. But otherwise, we recommend skipping the experience and saving that money for better meals elsewhere. Click here to see more of our experience dining in the Castle Preferred Resort Rooms Disney World often gives you the option to upgrade your resort room to a better view. There’s standard rooms that could possibly face a parking lot or…not much at all. There are pool or water view rooms, preferred rooms with better access to amenities, theme park view rooms at the Magic Kingdom resorts, and even Club Level and beyond! Considering how little time most of us spend in our rooms, we have to question if that additional cost for a view we don’t have much time to enjoy is worth it. Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort We totally get paying for an upgrade at certain times if it means less walking to and from your room each day (especially if you’re mobility impaired or have small kids in tow!). And we understand wanting a savanna view at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge. That’s a huge appeal of staying at the resort! But here’s a tip: you can still get a standard view room and request a “partial savanna” view, which still gets you a view of the animals without the additional upgrade cost. You can actually often make room requests, so it helps to do your homework beforehand on which rooms are the best for the room level you’ve selected to see if you can get a prime room. Of course, a request is never guaranteed, but in our experience, Disney will generally do what they can to accommodate requests if they can. Deluxe Resorts We’re not going to lie, deluxe resorts have spoiled us a little and we LOVE the times we’ve stayed there. But depending on how much time you have at Disney World, and what your schedule looks like, it just might not be worth paying more for a hotel room you’re only going to sleep in. This is right in line with paying for room upgrades. If you’re planning to just use your hotel to sleep, really consider if the hefty additional cost is worth it. Grand Floridian Lobby For some — and we totally get it — you’re going to want to get everything out of the hotel you pay for, and you might even plan a full resort day to relax and enjoy all the amenities that hotel has to offer. Deluxe resorts also offer stellar table service restaurants, lounges, and often other amenities like a gym and more. It comes down to your own personal preferences and plans for your trip. So there you have it, things we believe are not worth the splurge at Disney World. We understand that everyone comes to Disney World with different priorities, and in the end, it’s up to you and how much you’re willing to spend and what you’re willing to spend that on.

Some of the bars and restaurants in Disney World are still currently closed, including Trader Sam’s Grog Grotto and its outdoor counterpart, Trader Sam’s Tiki Terrace. Trader Sam’s Tiki Terrace In addition to the incredible tropical concoctions Trader Sam’s is known for, this spot has also earned a dedicated following thanks to the unique souvenir glasses and tiki mugs several of the drinks are served in. And if you’re missing those gorgeous take-home tiki mugs, we have some great news for you! Another spot at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort that’s known for serving up solid cocktails is Tambu Lounge. And right now, Tambu Lounge is serving up a specialty drink, the Citrus Surfer, which comes with a collectible Trader Sam’s Tiki Mug! This specialty release works the same as the releases in Trader Sam’s — you have to buy the drink to get the tiki mug. That’s right, even if you order the mug and ask them to hold the drink, you’ll still be paying the same price! Of course, we had to give it a try to get our tiki fix! Citrus Surfer The Citrus Surfer is made with Pyrat XO Reserve Rum, Appleton Estate Reserve Rum, Orgeat (Almond), and Falernum, with a blend of lime, lemon, and grapefruit juices. And, even though the menu says it’s “served with a souvenir tiki mug,” the drink doesn’t actually come in the mug — it comes in a regular glass (or, you can get it to-go in a plastic cup), and you get the souvenir mug when you pay the bill. Again, this is in line with how Trader Sam’s handled specialty releases also. Citrus Surfer The Citrus Surfer is tart, but they added agave to ours last minute which cut the tartness down a bit. As the name suggests, there’s a strong citrus flavor to this drink! The grapefruit also gives it a hint of dryness, so if you prefer your drinks to be on the tart and dry side rather than super sweet, this might be right up your alley! Citrus Surfer Okay, we’ve covered the drink, now how about that mug?? Well, take a look at this little beauty! Trader Sam’s Mug Just like the drink lived up to the “citrus” in its name, the mug certainly lives up to the “surfer” portion! Trader Sam’s Mug If you’re into tiki mugs, you’ll probably want to add this one to your collection. We love the detailed design and the pretty blue and white color scheme! Trader Sam’s Mug Yup, fellow Trader Sam’s stans, this one is for you! You can snag the Citrus Surfer drink and souvenir tiki mug for $32 at Tambu Lounge while supplies last. Cheers!

Who doesn’t love a good cookie? We know we sure do! Joffrey’s Coffee and Tea Kiosk at Animal Kingdom entrance And we’ve certainly eaten our share of cookies this holiday season, including Spiced Holiday Cookies, Chocolate Crinkle Cookies, and Caramel Cookies. Plus, we’ve even eaten our way through the 2020 EPCOT Festival of the Holidays Cookie Stroll! When it comes to cookie eating, we’re basically professionals at this point. So you might think we’re sick of cookies, but NOPE! And we just found another NEW cookie today at Disney’s Animal Kingdom! And did we get it? Of course, we did! It’s a Red Velvet Double Chocolate Cookie — like seriously, you had us at “red velvet” and “double chocolate.” Red Velvet Double Chocolate Cookie This is a Red Velvet Cookie with White and Milk Chocolate Chunks. And when we say chunks, we mean MASSIVE CHUNKS, which is how chunks in cookies should be. There were a LOT of chunks, too! Red Velvet Double Chocolate Cookie Funny story, though — every time we bit into the white chocolate, we secretly wished it was nuts instead, like macadamia nuts or something like that. But, we still found this cookie to be quite delicious. It was moist and perfectly baked. Red Velvet Double Chocolate Cookie The red color also adds a nice holiday vibe to the cookie! It’s not exactly the world’s greatest cookie creation, but we would still say that if you’re a cookie lover like we are, you’ll love this one. We found it at the Joffrey’s Coffee and Tea Kiosk just outside the entrance of Disney’s Animal Kingdom for $4.99. We’re trying all the snacks at Disney World ALL the time, so stay tuned for more reviews! Review: Moana’s Very Own Character Cupcake in Disney World!

From Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure to the Spaceship Earth renovation, LOTS of projects at Disney World have been delayed this year, likely due in large part to the global pandemic and park closures. Beatrix Construction Some of the projects that have also been delayed are Beatrix and the M&M’s Store, both of which are set to come to Disney Springs. But, construction has continued on other projects around Disney World. So, how is Disney Springs looking now? Today we got a peek from the sky! Bioreconstruct shared the following aerial image on their Twitter (@bioreconstruct) of Disney Springs. The top right arrow points to where Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew is being constructed. The bottom right arrow is the location of the M&M’s Store. On the left, the arrow on the top was where Ample Hills was meant to be, and the yellow arrow in the bottom left points to the area where Beatrix was being constructed. ©Bioreconstruct via Twitter (@bioreconstruct) We’ve seen quite a lot of construction going on lately at Everglazed and are looking forward to that spot opening soon. Everglazed In terms of the M&M Store, its grand opening has been delayed until 2021, but we’ve also seen construction moving along there recently. M&M’s Store Ample Hills unfortunately will no longer be operating in Disney World, and its “coming soon” sign that used to be in Disney Springs was removed earlier this year. But, what really interested us in this photo was Beatrix. Based on the photo from Bioreconstruct, the area where Beatrix is meant to be (bottom left arrow) is currently a whole lot of…well, nothing (at least in terms of its visual appearance from this view). Here’s a peek at that photo again. ©Bioreconstruct via Twitter (@bioreconstruct) When Beatrix was announced back in 2019, we saw construction walls go up and the Bongos building come down, but construction (at least in terms of anything we could see) seemed to be moving very slowly. Later, construction was paused, and based on this aerial photo, it looks like not much as been done since (at least from what we can see). Beatrix Construction in May of 2020 Beatrix was set to be a “neighborhood restaurant, coffeehouse, and grab-and-go market featuring healthy food options including vegetarian, gluten-free, and vegan along with fresh-squeezed juice cocktails.” It was also supposed to include an in-house bakery, and an American beer and wine selection. ©Disney The Beatrix website still notes that the restaurant plans to open its Disney Springs location, and the Disney Springs website still lists this spot as “Coming Soon!” ©Disney With construction progressing at the future locations of Gideon’s Bakehouse and Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew in Disney Springs, as well as other spots, we’re certainly hoping to see or hear an update about Beatrix soon. We’ll keep our eyes out for more updates and let you know what we find. Click here to get a first look at the menu for Gideon’s Bakehouse, which will be opening soon in Disney Springs!

We’re headed on into to Disney Springs to try a unique take on a classic eat! Pizza Bun Here at DFB, we love pizza (good pizza that is!). We also love bao buns. So, when YeSake released a new Pizza Bun, we were certainly intrigued! Still, when we went to try it, all did NOT go according to plan. So, without further ado, let’s take a look at the Pizza Bun from YeSake — and what was a little off about ours! Pizza Bun According to the menu, this snack is a bun filled with sausage, marinara, and cheese. But there’s only one problem…ours didn’t have any cheese inside! Noooooo! We love cheese so that was a pretty big blow. Don’t worry though, we sucked it up and reviewed it anyway. Pizza Bun This is a very savory snack! To us, it tasted a lot more like a meatball or hamburger meat than a pizza and there wasn’t a ton of marinara. We wish it had some pepperoni instead of — or with — the sausage to give that classic pizza taste, like the Pizza Spring Rolls in Magic Kingdom! But we DID think that the bright orange color is fun and very Insta-worthy and kids might love this snack. Pizza Bun You can find the Pizza Bun at YeSake in Disney Springs for $6 right now! Hopefully, yours will have cheese! As always, keep an eye on DFB for alllll the news and reviews from Disney World and beyond. Click here for another recent Disney review!

One of Disney World’s classic nighttime shows is returning soon! Electric Water Pageant Since Disney World reopened, The Electrical Water Pageant has remained on hold. But Disney just announced that this nighttime show will be returning soon! The Electrical Water Pageant is a procession of 14 free-floating barges with thousands of lights in the shape of whimsical sea creatures that sail across Seven Seas Lagoon to classic Disney music. The show is visible from the Magic Kingdom Resorts, as well as outside the park itself. Electrical Water Pageant The Electrical Water Pageant has remained on hold since Disney World reopened, but Disney just shared a video announcing that the Pageant will be returning to Seven Seas Lagoon soon! The video also shares that a few changes have been made to each of the barges, and while the mythical and water creatures are still there, they’ve been switched up a bit! Disney didn’t announce an exact return date for The Electrical Water Pageant, but we’ll be keeping a close eye out for further updates on its upcoming return! PHOTOS!

EPCOT has SEVERAL spots that we consider hidden gems. La Cava del Tequila Perhaps one of our favorites is La Cava del Tequila in the Mexico Pavilion. This spot is known for some surprising and delicious margaritas like the Tomato Margarita or the El Diablo. Now, we’re trying a back-to-the-basics drink — with a twist! La Cava del Tequila has introduced their very own version of an Old Fashioned! YES, this classic, typically-Bourbon-based cocktail has joined the lineup at our favorite tequila cave. Old Fashioned But it might have a few surprises flavor-wise. Instead of the typical Bourbon, sugar, and bitters; La Cava’s version is made with Casa Noble reposado tequila, Santa Teresa rum, Glenmorangie Scotch, Knob Creek bourbon, and Nixta elote liqueur served with Cardamom bitters, a big ice cube, and a Luxardo maraschino cherry. Old Fashioned And WOW, what a sip it is! La Cava has delivered once again with a drink that is very strong but surprisingly smooth. It’s blended well and we loved the vibe of the plastic cub, BIG ice cube, and Luxardo cherry!

Happy 1 year anniversary Disney’s Riviera Resort! Riviera Resort That’s right! Disney’s Riviera Resort opened a whole year ago, and we’ve been enjoying delicious drinks and fun character meals there ever since! And now Disney has celebrated this fabulous Resort’s anniversary with something special — an incredible LEGO model! To celebrate the first anniversary of Disney’s Riviera Resort, Disney Vacation Club asked The LEGO Group to create a model of to Resort in consultation with Disney Imagineers. LEGO Master Builders actually spent more than 300 HOURS designing and assembling the model, which weighs a whole 100 POUNDS! ©Disney The model has over 45,000 LEGO elements and even includes a miniature recreation of the Disney Skyliner, the Resort’s pool and waterslide, and that beautiful “RR” monogram. In the model, Minnie and Mickey are also featured outside of Topolino’s Terrace — Flavors of the Riviera. ©Disney You can check out the video below to see how this amazing LEGO model was created. The creation is set to arrive early next year at the Disney Vacation Club kiosk in Disney Springs Marketplace, where its scheduled (for now) to remain on display for the rest of 2021 (which is actually the year that marks 30 years of Disney Vacation Club)! https://cdn1.parksmedia.wdprapps.disney.com/media/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Disney’s-Riviera-Resort-First-Anniversary-LEGO-Model.mp4 So cool! We can’t wait to see this amazing LEGO model in person once it arrives in Disney Springs. Until then, we’ll have to stop by the LEGO Store in Disney Springs to check out their current displays and dream of all the awesome things we could build.

EPCOT’s Festival of the Holidays is underway, and we’ve had some delicious eats this year! Festival of the Holidays Sign One of the Holiday Kitchens that we really enjoyed this year is Holiday Hearth, set up inside the World Showplace. This booth is home to a variety of festive desserts, including one that we enjoyed more than we expected to — the Salted Caramel Spaceship Earth Cookie (which you can get the recipe for here). Now, the Spaceship Earth Cookie has received a holiday makeover and we don’t really know how to feel about it… . We stopped by to pick up one of these made-over cookies, and our first thought is…WHAT? Spaceship Earth Cookie Many of our team had similar thoughts, with comments like “What color is that…flesh?” and “I don’t understand what the peppermint is supposed to be.” Spaceship Earth Cookie Also, why does it have socks? Is it supposed to be walking? All of these are questions that we don’t really have the answers to! Spaceship Earth Cookie We get that it’s supposed to be festive, and part of us thinks this is kinda cute?! But what about adding some lights or a wreath? You know, normal Christmas decorations. For reference, here’s what the cookie looked like originally: Salted Caramel Spaceship Earth Cookie Besides the bizarre decorations, the cookie is still pretty much the same! It’s still $5.25 and it still has the delicious salted caramel filling inside. Spaceship Earth Cookie Our final warning is to watch how you handle this thing. We wrapped two of them up in a napkin to carry them gently to a table and BAM, they completely fell apart. This cookie is really a metaphor for 2020! Spaceship Earth Cookies We still recommend this one as a snack, we just don’t know how to feel about the new decorations. Whatever you’re going through, Spaceship Earth Cookie, we’re here for you.

Disney is certainly not joking around when it comes to its streaming offerings, especially Disney+. Disney+ Screenshot ©Disney During the recent Disney Investor Day webcast, the company announced LOADS (seriously loads) of new movies and TV shows coming to the service. They also announced that Disney+ had already surpassed 86 million subscribers just a year after its initial launch. Now, analysts predict that Disney+ will just keep getting bigger and bigger. According to NASDAQ, industry watchers at eMarketer predict that Disney+ will hit $4 billion in revenue by 2022. The Mandalorian on Disney+ ©Lucasfilm | Entertainment Weekly These analysts say that Disney+ revenue will reach $1.94 billion by the end of this year, but the January 2021 price increase to $7.99 per month (up $1 per month) will bring in even more for the streaming service. Soul Photo-Op The eMarketer analysts even believe that Disney+ will soon be a major Netflix contender, by estimating that all of Disney’s streaming services, including Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+, will generate $12.36 billion in revenue for the company. Netflix is predicted to bring in $12.95 billion around the same time, so Disney is steadily closing the gap. We know that WE have enjoyed Disney+ since its debut last year, and can’t wait to see all the new content coming to the streaming service over the next few years! We’re eager to see just what the company can do with this platform. Here’s EVERYTHING coming to Disney+ in January here! Join the DFB Newsletter to get all the breaking news right in your inbox!

This is decidedly NOT what dreams are made of! ©Disney We’ve got bad news for fans of Disney Channel classics. We were ecstatic last year when it was announced that Lizzie McGuire was getting a reboot to show us all-grown-up Lizzie living life with the help of her family and friends. Now, though, it seems that reboot won’t be happening. This isn’t entirely without warning. Earlier this year, Hilary Duff posted to share that the reboot had been removed from the Disney+ listing as there were disagreements on the level of maturity for the show. Disney wanted the show to go in a more kid-friendly direction. Duff did not believe that Lizzie’s adult story could be faithfully told under the PG umbrella. Hilary Duff and Adam Lamberg ©Disney After remaining on hold, Duff has now taken to Instagram once again to share that the Lizzie McGuire reboot will not be happening. She says, “I know the efforts and conversations have been everywhere trying to make a reboot work but, sadly and despite everyone’s best efforts, it isn’t going to happen… I’m very sad, but I promise everyone tried their best and the stars just didn’t align.” ©Disney It seems the direction that Duff wanted to take the character was pretty different from the way Disney wanted to show Lizzie, so different that the reboot fell apart. Duff notes, “I want any reboot of Lizzie to be honest and authentic to who Lizzie would be today. It’s what the character deserves.” ©Save with Stories We’re SO sad that Lizzie won’t be returning in her all-grown-up form with her animated counterpart by her side. As Duff says though, “Hey now, this is what 2020’s made of.” As always, stay tuned to DFB for the latest Disney updates! Click here to learn more about the disagreement over the reboot!
