Disney has released a slew of updates about Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, including opening seasons for both Disneyland and Walt Disney World, the name of the village on Batuu, and some additional concept art. For vacation planning purposes, opening timeframes are most pertinent, and Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge will debut in Summer 2019 at Disneyland
We return to Magic Kingdom again for a post-Christmas visit to check on the current status of several projects and random stuff around the park, including Tron Lightcycle Power Run, Liberty Square Riverboat, Aunt Polly’s, our New Year’s Eve (eve) visit to Magic Kingdom, and more. Let’s start with the current hot topic, and that’s
It’s been a big year for Walt Disney World rumors, with major new attractions or lands for Magic Kingdom, Epcot, and Animal Kingdom. There also have rumblings of new hotels, restaurants, and retail being added to the parks. Many of the year’s most popular rumors have already been confirmed as true via official announcements by
Yesterday, we visited Epcot as construction on the Guardians of the Galaxy and Ratatouille attractions continues, and the park gets ready to ring in 2019. In this post, we’ll share some photos, plus a final look at Christmas and the Epcot International Festival of the Holidays. Despite the lack of updates, we’ve been to Epcot
Late to the game here, but we never shared new thoughts on Christmas at Disney Springs, nor did we do a December 2018 construction update on Disney Springs, so this is a bit of both. We’ll share progress photos of Jaleo, NBA Experience, Wolfgang Puck, and more. While most of the Disney Springs re-imagining and
This post offers thoughts, anecdotes, and photos from our holiday trip to Japan, with a focus on Tokyo DisneySea. It’s the “sequel” to our Tokyo Disneyland Christmas Trip Report, and takes a similar approach to that, with some commentary followed by 60 photos. To be honest, I didn’t expect to be writing this Tokyo DisneySea
At the start of the holiday season, we visited Tokyo Disneyland to experience the Japan castle park’s ‘Christmas Fantasy.’ In this trip report, we’ll share 50+ photos from the parks, including seasonal entertainment, decorations, and more. This is our favorite time of year to visit–not just Tokyo Disney Resort, but Japan, period. For the last
Grand Floridian Resort & Spa is the next stop in the Magic Kingdom area on our tour of Walt Disney World hotels at Christmas. In this post, we’ll take a look at the iconic gingerbread house, the resort’s towering icon tree, and the other elegant decorations at WDW’s flagship resort. A visit to the Grand
The next stop in our Christmas-time hotel tour takes us to Animal Kingdom Lodge, a resort few guests will visit, at least if they aren’t staying there. That’s a shame, as it’s arguably the best resort at Walt Disney World. This continues as we attempt to expand upon our Free Self-Guided Walt Disney World Yuletide
We’re back with construction progress and updates from Disney’s Hollywood Studios, as we start the final round of our 2018 Walt Disney World construction reports. In this DHS update, we’ll cover on the Bus Stop Half Marathon, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, PizzeRizzo, Toy Story Land, and other areas of the park. Let’s begin with the
We recently had the chance to see Mary Poppins Returns, and thought we’d share our thoughts in a spoiler-free review. To say we were skeptical when a sequel to the beloved Walt Disney-era musical was announced would be an understatement. In an era when Disney seems to announce new unnecessary “live action” remakes on a
