For the first time, Mars Wringly is virtually doing trick-or-treating with there app called Treat Town app. When you download this app you will be able to create a virtual door and sign up to be either a candy giver or a trick-or-treater. Candy givers can buy candy credits and let anyone including friends or family in The United States virtually trick-or-treat at their house.
Pretty cool right?
If you would rather be a trick-or-treater then you can virtually visit friends’ houses and receive candy. You can then redeem this candy to get ACTUAL candy.
This app will also let you be able to go trick-or-treating at The Haunted Mansion!
Now until October 31, 2020 you can virtually visit The Haunted Mansion while you are at home. You can look at characters from the ride and unlock Disney costumes. New costumes are unlocked every day so you will want to keep on the look out!
You can also virtually visit other places like M&M’s New York, M&M’s Racing, the Snickers House, and Skittles Rainbow.
I think this is a great way to enjoy Halloween without leaving your house! Happy Halloween!!
This blog post is a part of the My Top Five Favorite Things series and since I haven’t eaten at Tomorrowland or visited the shops I will just be telling you my favorite rides and shows.
5. My fifth favorite show is Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor. On this show the characters from Monsters, Inc. are trying to give their city electricity from your laughter. I like this show because it is very funny!
4. Buzz Lightyear Space Ranger Spin is a ride were you and Buzz Lightyear are trying to defeat the evil emperor Zurg. This ride is like Toy Story Mania but not as good in my opinion. It’s just hard to tell if you have shot the aliens or not.
3. The Carousel of Progress is an indoor ride that anyone can do that teaches you about how technology has changed since the early 1900s. This may seem boring but it actually isn’t.
2. Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover is a relaxing ride where you get a tour of all of Tomorrowland. If you want to get away from the crowds than this is your ride!
If you have been reading my blog for a long time than you know that I love Space Mountain! This ride is amazing and I always love it! If you are afraid of roller coasters then DO NOT DO THIS RIDE! If you love roller coasters then this ride is perfect for you!
Have fun trying these rides and shows in Tomorrowland!
Fantasyland is probably my favorite land in Magic Kingdom because you can do so much in it even if it is raining.
5. My fifth favorite thing to do is watch the show Mickey’s PhilarMagic. This show is indoors and Donald Duck steals Mickey Mouse’s hat and is suddenly in other Disney movies! When the show is over you don’t have to go back outside because there is a gift shop.
4. My fourth favorite is The Many Adventures Of Winnie The Pooh. In this ride you get to visit Winnie the Pooh and friends! This ride is great to do while it is raining because when you are done there is also a Winnie and the Pooh themed gift shop.
3. Under The Sea: Journey Of The Little Mermaid is a ride that tells you the story of the Little Mermaid. I really enjoy this ride and even better, it is INDOORS!!
2. Big Top Souvenirs is a ginormous store that sells Story Book mercandise. Even if you don’t want to buy anything you can still look inside of the store and you will be dry!
If you have been reading my blog for a while then you know that I love Be Our Guest. At this restaurant you eat at Beauty and The Beast’s castle. You can choose from three themed rooms and it is a great way to stay indoors while it rains in Fantasyland.
I hope you enjoyed my list and I hope it helps you while it rains in Fantasyland!
I watched the movie, The Haunted Mansion, on Disney+ on Saturday.
This movie takes place in The Haunted Mansion so if you have been on the ride in Disney World you will recognize Madame Leota (the floating ball), The Singing Busts, and the men who are pointing their guns at each other. The movie is about a family that visits The Haunted Mansion and will have to try to break a curse in the mansion.
I give this movie 4 Mickey Bars!! It’s a very silly movie that the entire family can watch and it is not scary.
If you love The Haunted Mansion ride in Magic Kingdom than you should buy this book because it talks about how The Haunted Mansion in Magic Kingdom was made.
Disney World has many types of transportation you can use to get to the parks and I will be telling you about five of them today!
You can take a Disney bus to go to the parks, your Disney resort, or Disney Springs. I have never been on a Disney bus but one cool thing about Disney buses is each one has a unique design on the outside!
Another option of transportation is a Minnie Van. Minnie Vans are just like Ubers or Lifts. I have seen Minnie Vans all through out Disney property and the outside of the cars are adorable!
If you are staying in a Disney Resort you can take the monorail to go to the Disney Parks. Even if you aren’t staying in a Disney Resort than you will still use the monorail to go back to the parking lot were your car is after being in Magic Kingdom or Epcot all day. I enjoy taking the monorail to and from Disney World because it is very relaxing.
If you are staying at Disney’s Contemporary Resort you can walk to Magic Kingdom! This is great because it can take a long time to get into Magic Kingdom and walking there from The Contemporary Resort is quicker. At Disney’s Yacht Club, you can walk to Epcot.
Another way to get to the Disney parks is if you park your car in the parks parking lot, you can take the tram to get to the parks. I would recommend to take the tram rather than walking because other wise you will be doing a lot of walking. Believe me you are going to be doing enough walking in Disney World.
Have fun trying these different ways to get to Disney World!
It used to be that you could only wear a costume if you are under the age of 14. If you are 14 or older though you are still not allowed to wear a costume mask. You are still required to wear a face covering.
Disney also announced that from September 15-October 31, 2020 fall decorations and Halloween festivals will return. Mickey, Minnie, and friends will be wearing Halloween costumes, Chip N Dale will be in costumes in Frontierland, and other Disney characters will be dressed up while riding horse drawn trolleys down Main Street U.S.A.
There will also be themed treats, themed photos, and more!
Fantasyland is in Magic Kingdom and is home to one of my favorite restaurants in Disney World! Fantasyland also has two different areas located inside, one is called Storybook Circus and the other one is called the Enchanted Forest.
Rides: The rides located in Storybook Circus are The Barnstormer and Dumbo The Flying Elephant.
The Barnstormer is a roller coaster made for kids because the drop isn’t that high. I really like this ride though my only complaint is that this ride is really short. (Less than a minute!) Dumbo The Flying Elephant is a fun ride where you get to ride Dumbo high in the sky and you get a great view of Magic Kingdom!
The ride in the Enchanted Forest is Under the Sea: Journey of the Little Mermaid. This ride tells you the story of the Little Mermaid.
The other rides in Fantasyland are It’s A Small World, Mad Tea Party, Peter Pan’s Flight, Prince Charming Regal Carousel, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, and Winnie the Pooh.
On “It’s A Small World” you ride in a boat and dolls all around you sing “It’s A Small World”. The coolest part is that all the dolls are from around the world and sing in their language. Warning: This song WILL get stuck in your head!
Mad Tea Party is a ride where you sit in a large teacup and spin around and around. I have never done this ride because I don’t want to get sick.
On Peter Pan’s Flight you get to fly in the sky and fly past mermaids, London, and an epic battle between Peter Pan and Captain Hook.
Prince Charming Regal Carousel is a Cinderella themed carousel. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is a roller coaster and it is really fun!
The Many Adventures Of Winnie The Pooh is a ride where you meet everyone from the Hundred Acre Woods and learn the wonderful thing about Tigger.
Entertainment: Enchanted Tales With Belle is in the Enchanted Forest and you can take part in the show! You can play the characters from the movie Beauty and the Beast. Mickey’s PhilharMagic is a show where Donald Duck steals Mickey Mouse’s hat and winds up in other Disney movies!
Food: Cinderella’s Royal Table is a restaurant located inside Cinderella’s castle. While you eat, you meet Disney princesses.
Be Our Guest is one of my favorite restaurants in Disney World! Located in the Enchanted Forest, you get to eat inside Beauty and the Beast’s castle and the food is really good! (You can read my review of Be Our Guest here!)
Gaston’s Tavern in the Enchanted Forest serves Warm Cinnamon Rolls, Roasted Pork Shank, Chocolate Croissants, and many other snacks! The inside of Gaston’s Tavern is created to look just like the tavern in the movie.
Pinocchio Village Haus has seating with a view of “It’s A Small World” and through out the restaurant there are murals from Pinocchio.
Storybook Treats serves ice cream, milkshakes, and sundaes. Cheshire Cafe also serves snacks like the Cheshire Cat Tail. The Friar’s Nook serves macaroni and cheese and hot dogs.
Shopping: Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique is a shop where if you are a girl between the ages of 3 and 12 you can dress up as your favorite princess. Boys can be dressed up as knights. Big Top Souvenirs is where you will find Storybook Circus merchandise. I have been inside this store and it is huge!
Bonjour! Village Gifts in the Enchanted Forest sells Beauty and the Beast merchandise. Fantasy Faire is located next to Mickeys PhilharMagic and they have a big selection of Minnie Ears. Hundred Acre Woods sells Winnie The Pooh merchandise. Sir Mickey’s sells hats and snow globes. Tinker Bell’s Treasures sells princess merchandise.
Now you know about what rides, entertainment, food, and shopping are in Fantasyland!
If you have already bought a ticket for Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party you can get a refund. Disney H2O Glow Nights is an event at Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon that will also be canceled. You can also get a refund for that event as well.
Disney has said that changes are coming to the 2020 Epcot’s Food And Wine Festival as well as Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas. I will tell you about those changes in different blog posts so keep on the look out!
Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom will be opening on July 11 while Hollywood Studios and Epcot will open on July 15. Below I will be telling you about the rides and shows that will be reopening at Magic Kingdom. I will do separate articles on the other three parks.
Disney recently announced that Splash Mountain is going to be re-themed to the movie Princess And The Frog. Update: the ride will be called Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.
You will be able to join Princess Tiana and Louis as they prepare for their first Mardi Gras performance.
The Disney Imagineers have said that the ride will have amazing music and will be set in New Orleans and the Louisiana bayou. Tiana is a modern, courageous, and empowered woman who doesn’t lose sight of what is important. Update: Tiana’s Bayou Adventure is expected to open in late 2024.
I am looking forward to this attraction because I like the Princess And The Frog movie and I know the Disney Imagineers are going to do a great job on this ride!
