For many, MANY months, we’ve been trying to unravel one of Disney World’s biggest mysteries… Space 220 Concept Art ©Disney …when will EPCOT finally open its out-of-this-world restaurant, Space 220? Even before the temporary closures happened, Space 220 ran into numerous delays. Plans for the dining experience were announced back in July of 2017, but after its failure to launch this past Winter (when the restaurant was originally scheduled to open) the status of Space 220 (and the rest of the EPCOT transformation for that matter) remains unknown. EPCOT Some of EPCOT’s projects including Spaceship Earth’s refurbishment and the new Mary Poppins attraction have been postponed indefinitely. On the other side of the park, Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and Le Crêperie de Paris seem to be getting closer to completion. Space 220’s progress has been seemingly imperceivable from the outside since EPCOT’s reopening, BUT we did see a worker entering the building today which gave us some hope something might be happening on the INSIDE! Space 220 Next to Mission: SPACE at former Wonders of Life pavilion, we also noticed a crew was working up on the roof. This is where the new Play! Pavilion is supposed to be built. EPCOT In the last few days, we’ve also seen construction on the new Guardians of the Galaxy coaster resume, so maybe, just maybe, we’ll know something more about these new coming soon attractions soon — especially in regards to Space 22o! Check out the new Remy shoulder plush we just spotted at EPCOT here! Are you surprised Space 220 hasn’t opened yet? Share your thoughts in the comments below!

While we’ve already ranked the lands at Magic Kingdom by their snacks (just for kicks), we thought it would be an equally entertaining (and slightly torturous) undertaking to figure out which Disney rides are the BEST! Magic Kingdom Admittedly, we ADORE Disney World’s attractions almost as much as its FOOD! It’s almost impossible for us to choose only a few favorites! But alas, if we were all in a burning house and we could only save five of ’em from the fire, here are the Magic Kingdom attractions we’d choose — and which ones we’d sacrifice to the flames! Magic Kingdom’s Top Five Attractions These are in no particular order (we’re not monsters!). 1. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train or Peoplemover Soooo, remember that indecisive streak we told you about? Well right off the bat, we have a tie. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train in New Fantasyland is a pretty dope ride (and NOT because Dopey’s IN it)! It’s not only a roller coaster but also moonlights as a classic Disney dark ride, too! Its highest drop is 39 feet — which (believe it or not!) is even higher than Space Mountain’s (which you’ll see in a sec!). Sever Dwarfs Mine Train And while we’re always up for some Seven Dwarf-antics when we ride through their mining operation (soooo many SPARKLY gemstones!!) Tomorrowland’s Peoplemover is more our speed! This ride in an OG and 100% zen. Peoplemover Passing Through Tomorrowland We love how Peoplemover takes us all the way around Tomorrowland — and even inside some of the rides! And unlike Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, you don’t need to score a FastPass reservation MONTHS in advance to take a ride! There’s usually, at most, a 10-15 minute standby wait time to ride Peoplemover unless it’s an especially crowded day. Click here to read our survival guide for the busiest days at Disney World! 2. Haunted Mansion The Haunted Mansion might be the most-perfect ride Disney has ever made (it certainly is to a large number of fans of the ride!). This iconic attraction stationed over in Liberty Square delivers wall-to-wall creeps and hot and cold running chills every time. We love the Ghost Host narrator with his deep, spooky voice throughout and Madame Leota’s seance room, but there are too many great scenes to name. Haunted Mansion Even if you’re not a fan of “spookier” rides, Haunted Mansion is much more playful and humorous than a traditional haunted house, making it well suited for children and adults alike. Plus you get to ride in a Doom Buggy and take home a hitchhiking ghost — what could be better than that? This whole ride is immensely quotable for a reason — it’s a true classic! Read about 6 Disney World vacation planning tips everyone always forgets here! 3. Space Mountain or Splash Mountain UGHHH! We’ve got another tie on our hands but between Space Mountain and Splash Mountain, we’re truly torn over these two TOO! Space Mountain is just such a CLASSIC and delivers the perfect blast of adrenaline as we’re being rocketed through outer space. Believe it or not, the two and a half minute attraction reaches peak speeds of 28 miles per hour and its highest drop is only 23 feet! It WAS also your runner up as favorite of ALL the Disney World rides! Space Mountain However, Splash Mountain delivers a slightly different but equally enjoyable thrill. It’s just a matter of preference! There’s just something about being outdoors, then indoors, then outdoors, and getting sopping wet that can be really fun — when that’s what you’re in the mood for. Splash Mountain This Frontierland attraction has all the hallmarks of a traditional log flume ride except it’s packed full of crazy animatronic animals and has a giant 49-foot plunge into the briar patch BELOW! The ride is being re-imagined as a new Princess and the Frog attraction soon, so fans of the original ride might want to plan to take a trip down to the Briar Patch SOON! Maybe Princess Tiana will be the tie-breaker we so desperately need! Click here to learn more about Splash Mountain’s Reimagining! 4. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Another classic for good reason is Big Thunder Mountain Railroad in Frontierland. There’s a reason this is the ride often featured in so many Disney World commercials! It’s thrilling but easily approachable by young and old alike, it’s fast and silly, and just generally an all-around fun experience! Big Thunder Mountain Railroad in Disney World’s Magic Kingdom It’s definitely “the wildest ride in the wilderness” as it so boastfully claims, reaching speeds of up 36 miles per hour while its highest drop is 35 feet! You’ll whizz through caverns, gulches, and even the rib cage of a DINOSAUR! Why it’s there, we’re not really sure! 5. Pirates of the Caribbean Our last top-five favorite attraction at Magic Kingdom can be found in Adventureland, and we always have to ride it multiple times ’cause once is never enough! Of course, we’re talking about Pirates of the Caribbean! ©Disney The song always gets stuck in our heads and we can always sense whenever our favorite scenes are getting close like the “Here Kitty, Kitty” pirate or the plundering pirate who’s pillaged nothing but HATS! Of course, we always have to look up as soon as we sail underneath the pirate on the bridge to admire dirt-stained (HAIRY!) legs hanging over the ledge right over our heads! Plus, we can never turn down a chance to smell that musty scent of pirate water permeating the attraction. They even added whiffs of fruity scents in the village scenes a few years back to really make this an experience for your olfactory system AND your eyes and ears! Click here for everything you ever wanted to know about Pirates of the Caribbean! OK, OK, we know, we know. Where’s Jungle Cruise?! it’s a small world?! Where’s Mad Tea Party? Where’s Little Mermaid? Tomorrowland Speedway? POOH? BELLE’S MAGIC HOUSE?!???! Listen, this article is about the five best and the five worst. So that’s all we’re able to cover (plus those bonus tie ones above whatever it’s REALLY HARD TO DECIDE!!!). But that doesn’t mean we don’t LOVE the rest of those attractions. They’re all special snowflakes, and you can share your top five in the comments below! <3 Those were the best, now let’s get to THE WORST! Magic Kingdom’s Bottom Five Attractions Again, in no particular order! You wouldn’t ask us to pick a favorite child, so don’t expect a LEAST favorite ride! Use your imaginations to determine our true least favorite. 1. Astro Orbiter Astro Orbiter is a spinny ride that allows you to pilot your own rocket high above Tomorrowland! Astro Orbiter Atop The Peoplemover While that sounds like a pretty swell description, and the views can be amazing, the actual ride itself isn’t very exciting. “Spinny rides that go up and down” seem to be a dime a dozen in Disney World so this isn’t particularly unique. Plus, the attraction’s loading process is notoriously slow and you’ll have to board an elevator to get up to the Astro Orbiter’s platform. For all the extra effort it takes to ride Astro Orbiter, we’ll just ride Peoplemover a few times instead or take a few similar trips on Dumbo the Flying Elephant! 2. The Barnstormer Storybook Circus is such a cute addition and an area of the park you should definitely visit but The Barnstormer roller coaster is definitely more of a kiddie ride. Any mom or dad who’s been through the “Barnstormer phase” with their littles knows exactly what we’re saying here. Yep, the “Barnstormer phase” is when you get to ride this coaster over and over and over again…AND then use up your fastpasses for it. LOL! That said, this IS a solid “first coaster” experience for younger kiddos. If you can convince your kiddo to try a bigger a coaster, take them on Seven Dwarfs or Big Thunder instead. The Barnstormer If you’re more of a coaster aficionado, you’ll likely be incredibly underwhelmed by the small coaster. Even though we’re totally charmed by this part of the park, spend your time and energy chowing down on Caramel Corn at Big Top Treats next door instead! 3. The Magic Carpets of Aladdin Remember what we said about spinny rides like Astro Orbiter? Yep, we got another one. Did you ever realize Magic Kingdom has a bunch of spinny rides that all basically do the SAME thing like this? The only spinny ride worth our time is Dumbo the Flying Elephant since it’s historically significant to Disney and a rite of pachyderm passage for many! Aladdin! Magic Carpets of Aladdin just feels a bit redundant to us. Yea, the spitting camel is fun but not enough to land it on our good list. Sure the theme is cute and all, but since this ride is also very slow loading, we’d rather allocate the time to enjoying something more unique. There are better spinning rides to devote some of your Magic Kingdom park time! Click here to learn 10 great Disney World tips for your next trip that aren’t in any of the guidebooks! 4. Stitch’s Great Escape We gotta say, unless you’re a die-hard Experiment 626 fan, Stitch’s Great Escape might be a bit much for you. There’s a lot of hijinx including sprays of water, “interesting” smells, and other sensory effects. The attraction has more recently only operated seasonally (meaning when the park is at it’s absolute busiest and needs more rides to spread people out). And it looks like this ride may finally be taken out to pasture soon, as it’s reportedly set to close permanently! Stitch’s Great Escape Maybe the location is just bad luck? The show building where it sits has been used for many attractions including ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter, Mission to Mars, and Flight to the Moon — all of which have closed. Maybe it’s not all Stitch’s fault — this location seems to have a tough time making things stick. Click here to learn more about how Stitch’s Great Escape could be going the way of the dodo! 5. Prince Charming’s Regal Carrousel Now wait a minute. Before you freak out, all we’re saying is that if you’re figuring out where your Magic Kingdom time is going to go, this ride probably wouldn’t be the first one you’re running to at rope drop, OK? Ya gotta give us that. Formerly known as Cinderella’s Golden Carrousel, Prince Charming’s Regal Carrousel was originally built in 1917, LONG before the Magic Kingdom was even an idea in Walt Disney’s head! We love the ambiance the carrousel’s music provides and the Cinderella-themed murals are spectacular to look at. We can’t image Magic Kingdom without this iconic feature, but as far as rides go…it’s only a two-minute merry go round. Prince Charming’s Regal Carrousel Unless you’re wanting to take some memorable family photos or kill some time until Anatasia and Drizella wander by, you might want to ride something else. Prince Charming’s Regal Carrousel usually has really short wait times though, so if you’re wanting to go for a spin, you can usually hop right on! Overall, we realized our most-favorite attractions are the ones we can’t imagine going to the parks and NOT riding, while some of our bottom five attractions we haven’t been on in years. Maybe it’s time to give them another try and see if we’ve changed our minds! What will happen when TRON Lightcycle Run is completed? We’ll have to wait and see! What are your top five and bottom five rides at Magic Kingdom? Let us know in the comments below!

Halloween season has begun as we’ve already started eating a wicked amount of Hocus Pocus Cookies at home (and it’s absolutely been worth it). Halloween Treats Although Disney has canceled Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party and the Oogie Boogie Bash (and Universal has postponed the 30th anniversary of Halloween Horror Nights until next year), there’s still plenty of Halloween treats brewing for spooky season!

FYI — most of these goodies are pre-order only, but this one should be back in stock soon! ©Entertainment Earth As we start to pick out our costumes for this year, we LOVE seeing Mickey and Minnie dressed up in their own spooky outfits. And, the Mickey and Minnie Halloween Mini-Backpack is the perfect accessory to put all your trick-or-treat goodies inside for $75… ©Entertainment Earth …along with the Mickey and Minnie Halloween Crossbody for $70 (how many fun-size candies do you think we can fit in this Loungefly backpack??)… ©Entertainment Earth …and the adorable Mickey and Minnie Halloween Flap Wallet for $40 so you can make sure to keep your Disney gift cards with you when you’re going around the parks. ©Entertainment Earth Plus, Entertainment Earth has also given everyone a sneak peek of the ADORABLE Mickey Mouse Ghost Glow in the Dark Headband! While the ears are little Mickey ghosts, the bow is decorated with more ghosts, bats, and hidden Mickeys that are frighteningly cute for $28! ©Entertainment Earth Look bewitching wearing the cutest Mickey and Minnie Halloween Minnie Ears with a Loungefly logo on the side for $25! ©Entertainment Earth As Halloween quickly approaches, we can’t wait to be able to pick up our favorite snacks and drinks while we are back in Disney World!

Florida has recently been a hot spot for the novel Coronavirus that’s been spreading globally since the beginning of the year, with cases and positivity rates soaring in early July, just as Walt Disney World opened the gates to its theme parks for the first time in four months. Cast Members welcoming guests back to Magic Kingdom Following this spike, public officials ordered various mandates to stop the spread, including closing bars and requiring masks in public spaces. And now we’re starting to see a bit of hope in the recent numbers. WFLA has reported that 13.44% of those tested on Saturday were positive, which is the lowest number seen in two weeks. ©WFLA And the positivity rate was calculated at 9.28%. This is the first time that this metric has been under 10% since June 24th in Florida! Positivity rate is the number of first-time positive cases divided by the number of people tested. ©WFLA Additionally, average case numbers are slowly decreasing, according to this chart by the Orlando Sentinel. Florida Case Numbers through August 2nd The downward trend in case numbers and positivity rate is showing that mandates and closures are “slowly but surely” working, says Orange County health official Dr. Raul Pino, according to the Sentinel. As a result, officials intend to maintain the current health and safety protocol in order to see further gains — including potentially requiring mask-wearing well into 2021. Death rates, however, continue to rise. This is expected, knowing that death numbers lag days to weeks after case numbers, but is still a concern for Florida health officials. And there are concerns about Coronavirus spikes due to schools reopening in the coming days. One student and one staff member already tested positive at a reopened Indiana school within the first few days of instruction. We will continue to keep an eye on the developing story in Florida, and especially in Orange County and Osceola County, both of which Disney World calls home. Masks Could Be Required in Florida Through the Spring. Read More Here. Have you been back to Florida’s theme park recently? Let us know in the comments below! Related posts: The Clawwwww!
