“Once upon a time, there was a Magic Kingdom made of hopes and childhood fantasies. A timeless place where every land was filled with wonder. A place where everyone who entered its gates would be given the gift of the young at heart.”

Hello and welcome to another magical day at Walt Disney World! With the 50th Anniversary less than a week away, we are feeling all of that “Disney magic” in the air! Follow us as we take a stroll around Magic Kingdom and travel through EPCOT to discover the many things that lay in store for us today. Let’s jump in! 

We were thrilled to find that the Casey’s Corner pianist will once again fill the area with music very soon! We can’t wait to listen to all of the tunes starting October 1!

We found some spooky new styles over at Star Traders this morning! These Hocus Pocus-inspired designs are currently available in skirts, shirts, leggings, and even a Loungefly Backpack that we found at Emporium just yesterday! These devious designs were all created by Her Universe.

We took a trip around on the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover to check out all of the ongoing construction currently happening over at TRON Lightcycle / Run!

“Paging Mr. Morrow — Mr. Tom Morrow. Please contact Mr. Johnson in the control tower to confirm your flight to the moon.”

New horse-hitching stations have arrived at Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn & Cafe! These new additions are a very cute nod to the nature of Frontierland and match the aesthetic of the recently refurbished boardwalk.

We’re only six days away from Walt Disney World’s 50th Anniversary!  

On our way out, we were wished farewell by some of our royal pals.

We hopped on board the Monorail and set our sights on Disney’s Contemporary Resort! Let’s check out just a few of the key areas that are currently being updated. 

Yesterday, we saw all of the scrim that previously surrounded this area come down, and today we’ve seen the addition of some brand new benches and chairs for guests to lounge in. 

Take a look at the all-new mid-century modern designs that can now be found on the walls of the resort’s lobby!  

We were able to catch a sneak peek at some art from Pixar’s Incredibles on one of the upper levels of the resort! These canvases depict iconic characters from the film, such as Violet and Jack-Jack! We can officially say that this artwork is pretty… incredible. 

We monorail-hopped once more and soared toward EPCOT! Take a look at all of the construction currently happening throughout the park right now. Above, you’ll see upcoming projects such as Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind, Journey Of Water Inspired by Moana, a new quick-service restaurant, Starbucks, and more.

We traveled over to Port of Entry, where we found this adorable new “Been There Series” Pin. This pin features the iconic purple dragon himself, Figment, atop Spaceship Earth with the 50th Celebration logo and a hanging Starbucks charm. We found the Magic Kingdom and Disney’s Animal Kingdom counterparts to this pin series yesterday. 

That brings us to the end of our day. We hope you enjoyed joining us on another wonderful day at Walt Disney World! Will you be heading over to the parks to snag any of this new merchandise? Let us know in the comments below! Have a great day everyone, we’ll “see ya real soon!”
