Stormtroopers invade Disney Springs

Stormtroopers

If you’re going to Disney Springs, then look around for a Star Wars surprise! A pair of First Order Stormtroopers have invaded Disney Springs and can be seen in the upper level near the shopping district side of World of Disney. They’re stationed on the balconies, so look up to see if you can spot them.

Stormtroopers

We first noticed their presence on Wednesday, when the World of Disney store reopened. You can find their patrol stations on balconies with the First Order banners. For fun, wear your Star Wars apparel to Disney Springs and show your allegiance to either the Resistance or First Order. The Stormtroopers might provide amusing commentary depending upon their interaction with each guest. Of course, they could also tell you to “move along” to promote social distancing.

Disney Springs is still going through the first stages of its phased reopening. Several stores and restaurants opened this week, such as the LEGO Store, but more will follow as the phased openings continue for Disney Springs. We expect Raglan Road to open to the public soon, too.

In the meantime, remember to keep an eye out for the First Order Stormtroopers when you do visit Disney Springs!

Here’s a Tip for Booking Dining Reservations at Select Restaurants in Disney Springs

Just yesterday — among several other updates regarding the reopening of Walt Disney World — it was announced that all existing Advance Dining Reservations would be canceled by Disney. This action is being taken to limit guest capacity throughout the Resort (with restaurants included) in light of new safety measures for the reopening.

Disney Springs

While you can read all about that by clicking here, we wanted to fill you in on a way you can still get a reservation for select restaurants in Disney Springs.

We gave a ring to the lovely folks at Wine Bar George in Disney Springs. They expressed that to their knowledge all reservations booked through My Disney Experience (either through the app or by logging in to the Walt Disney World website) are in the process of being canceled.

However, Wine Bar George also accepts reservations through OpenTable.com, and guests are welcome to rebook by finding Wine Bar George on that website! And existing reservations made on OpenTable still stand.

Speaking of Wine Bar George…

You can read about our visit to the recently reopen Wine Bar George here!

Additional Disney Springs restaurants that you can find on OpenTable include STK Orlando, Wolfgang Puck Bar & Grill, The BOATHOUSE, Morimoto Asia, Paradiso 37, Paddlefish, Frontera Cocina, Planet Hollywood, and Terralina Crafted Italian. (And remember, there are no cancellation fees when booking through OpenTable!)

There have been lots of news updates regarding the proposed reopening of Walt Disney World, and you can find out more by visiting any of the links below.

Ice Cream Keychains and Colorful Scrunchies! We’re Over the Rainbow With This New Minnie Mouse Collection in Disney World!

We know how uber-difficult it has been to get your hands on the new Minnie Mouse: The Main Attraction merch being released each month!

Minnie Mouse: The Main Attraction Space Mountain Plush

From attraction-themed Minnie Ears to Loungeflys, the items almost seem to sell out faster than you can say Space Mountain! But yesterday while we were browsing around the newly-reopened World of Disney, we spotted a whole NEW Minnie Mouse collection that is super K-A-W-A-I-I! (That’s a Japanese word for CUTE!).

Check out this new range of adorable Minnie gear like these new Treat Yourself Journals for $16.99!

Treat Yourself Journals

And something about the style of these matching Treat Your Pens for $17.99 that reminds us of Tokyo Disneyland’s merch! Normally our friends overseas get all the cutest stuff, but it looks like our ship’s come in!

Treat Yourself Pens

Minnie even seems to be branching out from bows and is selling Rainbow Scrunchies now! We spotted this fabulous set of hair ties for $14.99 yesterday!

Minnie Hair Set

And how awesome is this little Minnie Purse for $14.99! We love how pink and sparkly it is!

Youth Minnie Purse

We spotted the same happy design of Minnie sliding down a rainbow on a Tie-Dye One-Piece for girls! Too bad they didn’t offer it in adult sizes, otherwise we definitely would have scooped it up!

Minne One-Piece

But our favorite piece has to be this Youth Minnie Hoodie for $44.99! This sweatshirt is a total showstopper from the adorable Minnie graphic on its front…

Youth Minnie Hoodie

…to all the bedazzling it has on the back! Who doesn’t love a little Minnie Mouse bling-bling?

Youth Minnie Hoodie

The hoodie would look so great with this new Reverse Sequin Shirt for 29.99! You can never have too much sparkle in our opinion!

But wait, there’s more! We also spotted this fantastic Minnie Door Hangers for $7.99! The little smiling rainbow castle in the background is literally the cutest thing we’ve ever seen!

Door Hangers

And these little Minnie Keychain Pouches are so adorable too! We love the accents of rose gold to go with the bright pink fabric!

Minnie Keychain Pouch

Last (but by no means least!), we practically screamed and fell over when we saw these new Minnie Pom Pom Keychains! They look like little ice cream cones!!

Check out our entire World of Disney shopping spree from yesterday here!

So um, yeah…we might have just leveled up of love of Minnie Mouse from totally infatuated to completely obsessed!

Check out some of the other cool merch we spotted at Disney Springs yesterday here!

NEWS! Disney World Adds New Payment Options Including Apple Pay to Mobile Order!

Now there are even more ways to take advantage of Mobile Order at Disney World!

D-Luxe Burger

For years, Mobile Order has allowed guests to use the My Disney Experience app to pre-order and pre-pay for their food at select quick-service locations. Yesterday, we shared that they had added a new pick-up time feature to Mobile Order. Now, they have added new payment options.

Guests now also have the option to pay with Apple Pay, Disney Gift Card, or a Disney Reward Card! For guests with Apple Pay set up on their mobile device, they will see the option to use Apple Pay on their order summary page.

Mobile Order Summary Page with Option to Pay by Apple Pay

By continuing to Checkout, you’ll also see the option to pay by Disney Gift Card or Disney Rewards Redemption Card!

Mobile Order Payment Options

By clicking on the “Add a Card” link within the Disney Gift Card section, guests can then select which type of card they’d like to enter.

Add a Disney Gift Card in Mobile Order

Note that only one Disney Gift Card or Disney Rewards Redemption Card can be applied per order. We love using Mobile Order to bypass long lines at quick-service dining locations, so we’re excited to see there are even more ways to take advantage of this feature!

With the parks looking to reopen in July, they have mentioned that they will be pushing for contactless payments and Mobile Order is one easy way to do that.

We will continue to keep you updated as new changes are implemented around Disney World!

NEW Gorgeous Replica Journals of Classic Disney Fairytale Storybooks Arrive in Disney World!

Once upon a time, we found these adorable princess journals!

World of Disney

Now that World of Disney is officially reopened in Disney Springs, we’ve been popping in to see what merchandise is available. And we’ve found several things to add to our wish list!

We spotted some beautiful princess journals (which we’ve previously reported on) in World of Disney, and it’s the first time we’ve seen them available in-store! First, let’s take a look at the Cinderella journal — check out the gorgeous detail on the front cover and clasp!

Cinderella Journal

An inscription inside the journal provides a backstory about the artwork contained before the lined pages of the journal.

The front of the journal includes the story of Cinderella, complete with illustrations.

And here’s a peek at the lined pages of the journal where you can write your own fairy tale!

And we also saw a Sleeping Beauty journal that paid homage to Princess Aurora! The cover is incredibly ornate, with tons of sparkly jewels!

Sleeping Beauty Journal

This journal also starts with artwork that tells the story of Sleeping Beauty.

And, of course, there are lined pages for you to fill with your own princess musings!

Both of these journals were priced at $29.99, and they would make a great addition to any princess fan’s collection! Seriously, we can’t get over those GORGEOUS details on the covers!
