The Pumpkin Spice Churro Balls feature mini Pumpkin Spice bites sprinkled with powdered sugar and are similar to 4Rivers Cantina Food Truck’s Dulce de Leche Churro Balls. Our Pumpkin Spice Balls were even served with a side of the caramel dipping sauce as you can see. However, we heard they are supposed to be served with a cream cheese dipping sauce. Regardless of which sauce you get, you are sure to enjoy them!

Construction Update in Photos: Hollywood Studios Bus Depot

Construction Update in Photos: Hollywood Studios Bus Depot

Construction continues to move along on the new bus depot over at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Construction Update in Photos: Hollywood Studios Bus Depot

As we previously reported, the original bus loop at Hollywood Studios has been temporarily relocated while the new location is being completed. All bus traffic is being redirected to the charter bus parking areas. Instead of turning to your left when exiting Hollywood Studios to find your resort bus stop, you will take a right as soon as you exit the Security area and walk down a path to the new location.

It appears that the new bus depot will be covered (much like the bus stop at Magic Kingdom), offering some much-needed reprieve from the sun. Surely, this will be a hit with guests as they await their magical bus transfer to their resort and other parks.

This book was an exciting read that took me back to my childhood adventuring alongside Ariel. We get to see a side of Ariel that shows off why she’s a Disney Princess, with her bravery and determination. I enjoyed the alternate storytelling, and although Ariel is one of my favorites, the Disney Villains lover in me enjoyed seeing a little more of our favorite Sea Witch, Ursula.

This was an especially fun read for me, because I am currently in the process of redecorating my room themed with “The Little Mermaid”. I was inspired by the bedroom set from Box Lunch, and I’ve been slowly transforming my the room in my new house into a mermaid grotto!
