Since the reawakening of Rafiki’s Planet Watch at Disney’s Animal Kingdom earlier this year, I’ve been perfecting my drawing skills at The Animation Experience at Conservation Station. It has been fun learning how to sketch some of the most iconic characters from Disney’s “The Lion King,” and I’m excited to share that soon we’ll all be able to add to our collection. Right in time for the villainous season, we’re introducing characters who find themselves as the antagonist in highly popular Disney films. While Scar and Ed from Disney’s “The Lion King” will remain as one of the six characters in rotation, beginning Oct. 18, you can put pencil to paper and learn to draw from Disney•Pixar: Bruce from “Finding Nemo” and Hopper from “A Bug’s Life”; ShereKhan from “The Jungle Book” and Tic Toc from “Peter Pan.” FastPass+ continues to be available for the experience. Which new character are you looking forward to learning? Haven’t had the chance to learn all the Disney’s “The Lion King”-inspired characters yet? Check out the Learn to Draw series for a step-by-step lesson for Zazu, Timon, and Simba. View the full article

It’s hard to resist the wonder of fireworks. Some of my best memories are of sitting outside with my family, watching glowing glitter fill the air. “Epcot Forever” is a new nighttime spectacular that has fireworks, lasers and kites! I can’t wait to make new memories watching it! Artist Jeff Maurer has created a lasting memory for us to enjoy. Download his new Desktop/Tablet and Mobile/Watch wallpapers featuring this new show.

In case you missed it, allow us to give you a recap of the past week or so: Disney Skyliner opens (yaaaay!). Disney Skyliner breaks (oh nooooo!). Re-creation of the Skyliner Incident Now that we’re all up to speed, we gotta have some real talk here. The Skyliner stranded guests mid-air for 3 hours. It has remained closed since Saturday evening and Disney has released a statement about the incident, but there’s one thing we still just can’t get off our minds. Those emergency kits! A couple hours into the “situation,” guests reported hearing over the speakers in their gondolas that they could now open their emergency kits under their seats. Um…1) SRSLY there are EMERGENCY KITS?! then 2) GIMME!!! WHAT THE WHAT is in there?? Water? Blankets? Stale Mickey pretzels?? Our eyes were glued to Instagram waiting to see what the elusive kits contained! And the result?? Weeeeell…not exactly going to be saving lives with these kits! They contained a few packets of drinking water, cool packs, a pencil and notepad (that ironically was labeled “Universal”…oh Disney.), a whistle, a glow stick, and a few blue cups. (Yes.) Disney’s Skyliner There’s got to be a better way! No snacks? No way to keep warm? No toilet paper??!!! (For real guys…if nature calls, even stuck in mid-air…you’re not gonna want to be scrambling to find that old guide map in your pocket out of desperation!) This Doesn’t Count as Toilet Paper What would we have done better? Include a rope for lasso-ing the pizza from the delivery guy on the ground after we order some pies for the hungry gondola? A folding ladder so we could all, awkwardly, try descending to safety in the night? A parachute (do those even work that low?!)? We pulled together our ideas and came up with what WE would want to find in our kits if we were stuck in the Skyliner for 3 hours: The “OMG I’m stuck 60 Feet in the Air” De-Stress Kit We don’t know about you, but if we were cruising the skies to Epcot and suddenly found ourselves dangling for who-knows-how-long from an oversized telephone line with no help in sight, the anxiety is gonna get REAL up in that gondola! Disney Skyliner One complaint we saw from many guests stuck on the Skyliner was the LOUD recorded message apologizing for the delay playing every minute or so the entire. time. Nope. We’ve got a solution for that. iPod and Headphones with super-zen nature sounds: No more scary loudspeaker messages. Instead, sway in the air to the calming sounds of a babbling brook or ocean waves. Aaaaahhhhhh. Lavender-scented de-stress aromatherapy lotion: Align your chakras with calming scents. Earplugs to further find tranquility in the skies. A soothing eye mask provided by Disney to help the terrifying reality that you’re dangling in a giant Christmas ornament melt away! Yeah…we know. Dare to dream. The “I’m Stuck in a Box With My Kid(s) For How Long?!” Emergency Kit We can’t imagine being stuck dangling for 3 hours with a child on the Skyliner. Kids at Disney World are already easily overstimulated, overly tired, sugared-up, and just generally maxed out! If you’ve been anywhere with a kiddo in tow, you likely know all too well the shiver down your spine when you hear those 4 dreaded words: “I gotta go potty!” Sorry, You Won’t be Finding This in Your Skyliner Gondola So how would we suggest Disney help those frazzled parents? An emergency “In case of angry toddler, break glass” type option! Food (Duh. Kids are tiny always-hungry vacuums.) like Fruit Loops, granola bars, fruit roll-ups, or crackers. A board game option would be well received (nothing says “We’re gonna be ok on the Skyliner” like watching your 4-year-old stomp and shake the dangling gondola because they didn’t win at Candy Land!). Coloring Books and crayons are always a hit with the younger set, so long as the crayons weren’t subjected to that famous Florida heat and morphed into one melted mega-crayon. An emergency iPad with unlimited youTube access. Welcome to Ryan Toys Review. And headphones, obviously. Because you’re stressed out enough and you do NOT need to hear “Baby Shark” for the 100th time trapped in a tiny metal box! A blankey is in your kit to wrap up your kiddo and pray sleep comes quickly if all else fails! Maybe it’ll take the edge off? The Adult Coping Survival Kit If you’re more worried about the BIG kids in your gondola, or maybe you were just forced to make some new Disney BFFs in the Skyliner for 3 hours, you’ll want a proper way to cope. Emergency Disney issued OTC Painkillers for that tension headache you’ve surely developed by now. Booze. Obvi. Emergency vodka or wine for the over 21 crowd brings the party to the skyliner. DVD player complete with all 10 seasons of Friends or The West Wing. How thoughtful, Disney! Snacks! Each kit will come stocked with plenty of Arendelle Aqua Wintery Whoopie Pies for each guest! (Haha j/k — you though that was a real thing for a second, didn’t you!? Sorry, but there ARE about 2000 other Arendelle Aqua snacks still around the parks if you’re interested!) Ok, in all seriousness what happened on the Skyliner was horrible. We can’t imagine being stranded in the air for that long with no communication or end in sight. In all truthfulness, what was REALLY missing from the emergency kits? The Real, Legit, “Here’s What We Need In The Skyliner Emergency Kits, Disney” Emergency Kit Food and Water. There was no food in there! Slip a few granola bars or protein bars or dried fruit in the box, Disney! Portable fans. Thankfully the malfunction happened in the evening and it’s Fall, but could you imagine if it was mid-day in the dead of summer?! HOT and nasty in the Skyliner, guys. Cooling packs won’t get you that far. Small, battery-powered fans seem like a better solution. Batteries. See above. Small handwarmers for more chilly days. Each gondola DOES have a small heater, but handwarmers couldn’t hurt. Emergency blankets. You know those weirdly cool mylar blankets? They fold to practically nothing and seem like an easy add. Crank chargers and smartphone charging cords. A diaper and wipes for smaller kids in your group. The adults could certainly use the wipes as well, seeing as no one mentioned actual toilet paper in those kits! Plus, messes happen even in the skies, so having wet wipes on hand could save a lot of headaches. A better bathroom solution. This is certainly the dark side of the Skyliner no one wants to talk about. Those blue-lipped cups found in the kits are the same kind issued by Disney’s First Aid Centers if your tummy is in distress. They hold a lot of liquids quite well, but most people don’t want to consider using them when they plan that once in a lifetime Disney trip! Epcot’s International Gateway Skyliner Station Give us a second. I’m sure we’ll think of more. Also, please please don’t go stealing emergency kits now that we all know they’re there. You wouldn’t want to be stuck up there and find NOTHING under your seat in an emergency, so just be cool. Oh, and what’s in YOUR kit??

Besides the 999 happy haunts that normally reside at Disneyland, we spotted a strange-looking new guy we’d never seen before! Halloween Time in Disneyland He’s not your traditional spooky dude (how do we describe this fella.. he’s WEIRD, but in, like, a cute sorta way?) Well, you’ll see what we mean… Behold! The Monster Halloween Cake!!! C’mon, whatta face! Wait… is that his face? Monster Cake Ok, maybe the Monster Halloween Cake is a bit perplexing, but it looks super fun and interesting! We found it at The Plaza Inn in Disneyland! Here’s lookin’ at you, cake! Monster Cake It features a chocolate cake with layers of multi-color white chocolate mousse and green buttercream, finished with royal icing eyes and sprinkles! As excited as we were to try this odd creature, we sadly weren’t really thrilled with the taste. The icing eyes that originally sold us on this thing tasted kinda bizarre — even for a monster cake! Monster Cake Don’t get us wrong. It’s still a good, high-quality piece of cake — it was nice and moist and the buttercream really stood out. It’s just that it wasn’t particularly unique. Maybe because we’ve seen many renditions, like the Main Street Electrical Cake, in the past. If you didn’t already completely gorge yourself on The Plaza Inn’s fried chicken (usually, we can’t even walk after eating there, but just sayin’) if your still somehow peckish, the Monster Halloween Cake would be a nice finish to the meal. Monster Halloween Cake The Monster Halloween Cake is $5.99 and will probably be packing its monster suitcase once Halloween is over, so head over to The Plaza Inn to grab it before it goes! Will you be trying the new Monster Halloween Cake at Disneyland? Let us know in the comments section! Related posts: The Maleficent Frappuccino Is Bold And Beautiful And EXCLUSIVELY At Disneyland!

The Plaza de la Familia celebration is in full swing in Disney California Adventure! Plaza de la Familia Paradise Garden Grill has transformed its menu for the big fiesta and it’s currently featuring Mexican cuisine, like Tacos, Tamales, a Hibiscus-Flavored Jamaica Slush, and a souvenir cup with Mexican Hot Chocolate that is making us “un poco loco.” The Coco Jarrito de Dante ceramic souvenir mug features decals of Dia de los Muertos Miguel, the Coco logo, and Miguel’s Xolo Alebrije (spirit guide) Dante. This mug is very similar to last year’s but this year it has all-new decals! Coco Mug Guests will have the option to choose what drink they’d like with the mug. Coco Jarrito de Dante After selecting our drink of choice, Mexican Hot Chocolate, the Cast Member advised us that she would be serving the drink in a separate cup. Coco Jarrito de Dante When we were given the mug, it was packaged in a cardboard box filled with styrofoam and the mug itself was wrapped in plastic. After removing it, we came to realize that this ceramic mug is pretty heavy for its small size. It’s made well, and we thought the detailing was stunning. It almost looked hand-painted!! So, we’re really hoping those decals stay on there. Jarrito de Dante mug Now, time to chat about the Mexican Hot Chocolate! This is a cinnamon-spiced hot chocolate topped with whipped cream. Unfortunately, we weren’t too pleased with the hot cocoa. The cinnamon flavoring was very strong and the rest of the hot chocolate flavors were sorta bland. Mexican Hot Chocolate You can get the Coco Jarrito de Dante souvenir mug with Mexican Hot Chocolate or your beverage of choice for $13.99 before an Annual Passholder discount. Or you can snag the Mexican Hot Chocolate on its own for $3.19. Join the DFB Newsletter to get all the breaking news right in your inbox! Click here to Subscribe!

Halloween Cupcake And we just set our sights on another one today that you’ll want to add to your spooky treat list! A new Halloween Cupcake has swooped into Restaurantosaurus at Disney’s Animal Kingdom! Halloween Cupcake The Halloween Cupcake features a chocolate cake and is STUFFED with a rich, dark chocolate mousse! The cake was pure chocolate yumminess thanks to its great soft texture. And the mousse wasn’t too sweet, but it was very rich and tasty instead! Halloween Cupcake The Cast Member snagged ours from the back of the cooler, so it was nice and cold — which is our preferred cupcake temperature…but maybe that’s just us! It realllllly helped that ours still had a nice chill to it because otherwise, it would have toppled over in the Florida heat! Just look at HUGE pile of buttercream! Too much buttercream, perhaps? Um, no. You can never have too MUCH buttercream! Halloween Cupcake We had to gobble up our little chocolate bat friend because he too was quickly succumbing to the heat! And the spooky ghost sprinkles made this treat look AS GOOD as it TASTES! Halloween Cupcake Make sure you fly over to Restaurantosaurus to nab your Halloween Cupcake for $5.99 before it flies away!

It’s a beautiful time of year with gord-eous fall decor taking over the Disneyland Resort. On Main Street, U.S.A. at Disneyland park, the feeling of fall is all around as you venture through the Pumpkin Festival. Join us as we take a closer look at some of the unique pumpkins featured along Main Street, U.S.A. In 2006, the Disneyland Resort began decorating for the Halloween season. During this inaugural season, pumpkins were added throughout Main Street, U.S.A., which has become what we know and love today as the Main Street Pumpkin Festival. The iconic Mickey-shaped pumpkin is a photo-moment favorite during the Halloween season. This pumpkin stands 16-feet tall and is ready to greet guests with a warm fall welcome as they make their way inside the Happiest (or Spookiest!) Place on Earth. As you keep walking down Main Street, you may notice more pumpkins adding to the fall flair. There are over 300 pumpkins in the Main Street windows and on top of store fronts! What’s even more impressive is that no two pumpkins are alike as they are each carved by select members of the resort enhancement team. Each pumpkin has their own unique story that pertains to the location where they are placed. At 20th Century Music Company, the shop owner has carved a pumpkin that has a strong resemblance to the one and only Elvis Presley. Maybe it’s the pompadour and leafy ruffles that give him away! This pumpkin is an homage to the history of music and what that the store represents. In the window next to the music shop’s door, there is a pumpkin that is playing the trumpet. Not to toot their own horn, but this is one pumpkin whose music is the hit of the pumpkin patch. Over at the Mad Hatter on Main Street, U.S.A., there are carved pumpkins surrounding the marquee. Each of them are sporting their own hat to represent their unique fashion sense! One pumpkin unleashes their inner tourist with a classic bucket hat, while another wears a literal bucket as a hat. One looks striking in their bowler hat, another is making headlines with their newsboy hat and there is one com-fur-table in their raccoon hat. Head to the Mad Hatter to see what other types of hats are in fashion this Halloween season. To match the Main Street 1900s time period, the Emporium has many unique window displays that represent what the individual store would offer. Some displays feature unique pumpkins that help to tell the story of the store. In the shaving window, near the Crystal Arcade entrance to the Emporium, sits a gentleman of a pumpkin, getting a shave. He has shaving cream all over his beard and there seems to have been a bit of a mishap — if you look closer, part of his mustache has been mistakenly shaven off! Talk about a “close” shave. Other windows of the Emporium feature seasonal merchandise and home goods, and also include more specialty pumpkins. At the sewing window, there are vintage sewing machines and sewing supplies with a giant pumpkin acting as a pin cushion. Also, a little further down, there is a sudsy pumpkin in the window with all of the laundry supplies and a vintage washer tub with a wringer. In the China shop window, there’s an homage to the classic Disney film “Beauty and the Beast” with a special Mrs. Potts pumpkin. Mrs. Potts is a tale as old as time and plays into the theming of a shop that used to sell fine China and household goods. No Halloween season is complete without pumpkins to spice things up! So carve out some time to visit the Disneyland Resort and see the special jack-o-lanterns that light up the Halloween season. View the full article

While the master of Disneyland’s Halloween ceremonies — Mr. Oogie Boogie — is holding court over his spooktacular Oogie Boogie Bash, the residents of Radiator Springs are having their own festive fall fun! Happy Haul-O-Ween from Carsland! Not only does Cars Land receive a special Halloween overlay, but you can also enjoy two special Halloween-themed attractions — Mater’s Graveyard JamBOOree and Luigi’s Honkin’ Haul-O-Ween! There’s also a bunch of frightening-good seasonal treats to munch and sip on — including this AMAZING Pumpkin Spice Shake! We found the Pumpkin Spice Shake for $5.99 over at Flo’s V8 Cafe! And if you want one, you better motor over there quickly! Flo’s V8 Cafe The shake features a pumpkin spice ice cream base that comes served in a caramel lined cup! It’s then topped with whipped cream, sprinkles, even MORE caramel, and pieces of crushed graham crackers! This shake is THICK and only has a mild hint of the pumpkin spice flavor, which we loved! Flo’s V8 Cafe Pumpkin Spice Shake The graham crackers, much to our surprise, were STILL nice and crunchy! Often we’ve gotten treats at Disneyland with large soggy graham cracker pieces, but such was not the case with the Pumpkin Spice Shake! Flo’s V8 Cafe Pumpkin Spice Shake We think if you are a pumpkin spice supporter, you will totally love this drink! And we’re even going to get a little bold and say because of how mild the notes of Pumpkin Spice were and how nicely balanced it was, non-pumpkin spice fans might like it too!

With fall and Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party in full swing at Disney World, there’s much to discuss, so let’s get started! First, we’ll be hitting up Main Street, USA in search of some grub! Main Street USA Horse Drawn Streetcar Magic Kingdom Food Update Main Street Confectionery Our first stop was to see the masters of sugar at Main Street Confectionery, but unfortunately, our visit was a left us wanting more — ugh! Sadly, it appears Main Street Confectionery is still out of its delicious Pumpkin Fudge! The Confectionery Big Top Treats’ Pumpkin Fudge in Storybook Circus is also MIA at the moment. We chatted with some Cast Members who said they’ve been getting asked A LOT about it, so we’re still hopeful it will make its triumphant return soon!

The young adult book was released over the summer but it’s the first time we ever saw it for sale at the parks! Tales from the Haunted Mansion Speaking of good reads, we also ran across Hocus Pocus & The All-New Sequel Book for $12.99. While not recently published, it’s nice to see Disney is diversifying its souvenir portfolio with more BOOKS! Hocus Pocus Sequel Lastly, we saw the Mr. Toad and The Headless Horseman Anniversary Plush Set at The Emporium. $59.99 is a bit steep for two plush toys, but we’re still obsessed!

Trevor Jackson, Diggy Simmons, and Jordan Buhat took a break from shooting the upcoming season of Freeform’s ‘grown-ish’ to take a trip to the Walt Disney World Resort. From epic excitement at Disney’s Hollywood Studios to culinary adventures at Epcot’s International Food & Wine Festival, they each found their #HappyPlace. The guys started their day at Disney’s Hollywood Studios aboard a haunted elevator-style lift on The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, then hopped aboard Slinky Dog Dash in Toy Story Land. They snapped a few pictures in front of the Popsicle Wall before venturing to a Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge for a thrilling adventure on Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run. They even earned enough credits to buy a round of Blue Milk! The fun continued at Epcot’s International Food & Wine Festival, where the guys met up with chef Jet Tila for the Delicious Duo culinary demonstration. They then made their way around World Showcase making stops at the festival attractions and marketplaces including the Eat to the Beat concert, the new Appleseed Orchard marketplace, and Soarin’ Around the World. The most exciting parts of the day were those devoted to Epcot’s past, present, and future. The guys got an enticing glimpse into the park’s bright future via the 360-degree presentation in the Epcot Experience. They also snapped a few pictures in the photo cubes. At the end of the evening, Trevor, Diggy, and Jordan were thrilled to watch “Epcot Forever“, the brand new nighttime fireworks spectacular. It’s safe to say that Walt Disney World Resort is their #HappypPlace. We can’t wait for the return of ‘grown-ish’ in early 2020 on Freeform! View the full article
