Croatia-and-Slovenia-Ljubjana-Castle

You’ll start off in Ljubljana, Slovenia, a picturesque city surrounded by mountains and historic buildings that pull you in with timeless beauty. Perched on a hill at the center of it all is Ljubljana Castle, where you’ll experience a guided tour alongside costumed storytellers that bring the city’s layered past to life.

Croatia and Slovenia Velika Planina

And that’s only half the journey! Your adventure continues in the captivating country of Croatia, where you’ll explore the famed Dubrovnik, known for its fortified city walls that run along its golden Adriatic coastline.

You’ll spend multiple days exploring everything this dynamic city has to offer, including its longstanding history and fresh, locally-sourced cuisine. In between all the sightseeing, splash around and soak up the sun during a visit to the nearby Elaphiti Islands, where crystal‑clear waters and island scenery perfectly showcase the relaxed rhythm of coastal life here.

Meet the Disney Chefs Behind the Viral Cookie Dough Brownie Ice Cream Sandwich at Animal Kingdom

Meet the Minds Behind Animal Kingdom’s Viral Cookie Dough Brownie Sandwich

The cookie dough brownie ice cream sandwich has taken social media by storm, and now Walt Disney World Ambassadors and Disney Careers are pulling back the curtain on the culinary masterminds responsible. Meet the two talented Disney chefs behind this insanely popular Disney’s Animal Kingdom treat, whose creative vision turned a simple dessert into a viral sensation.

att bzETXUpRFfXeOxhSzPW CgcjGJ YgJsdldGPcw

Two culinary experts are taking us behind the scenes to share the inspiration for one of Disney’s Animal Kingdom’s most talked-about treats: the Cookie Dough Brownie Ice Cream Sandwich.

In a new spotlight shared by the Walt Disney World Ambassadors, we meet Chef Kellie, the pastry chef for Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and Chef Joe, a pastry cook 1 at the park’s bakery. The duo breaks down the creative process and teamwork required to develop this viral frozen sensation.

Reflecting on the very first time she put the dessert together, Chef Kellie shares:

“When I first built the ice cream sandwich, and I cut into it, I like knew I struck gold. Then I took a bite, and I literally screamed.”

Cookie dough

In the video, Chef Joe gives the dessert his highest praise, enthusiastically calling it “tens across the board, for sure.” The culinary duo explains that the magic behind the sandwich’s success lies in its nostalgia, as it was specifically designed to evoke those classic, familiar childhood dessert memories.

att KVxajGfDZjcBi uRTDnovIIlIwreMRnafDpzLas

Reflecting on that sense of childhood nostalgia, Chef Kellie describes the experience as a true “Ratatouille” moment. She likens the first bite to the famous food memory sequence from the film—a high honor that suggests this treat is more than just a dessert; it’s a trip down memory lane.

The spotlight concludes with both chefs standing before the iconic Tree of Life, waving to the camera after sharing the heart and history behind the viral sandwich. It’s a sweet ending for the team that turned a simple craving for nostalgia into one of the park’s most popular snacks.

The wildly popular bakery is opening a brand-new concept called Six Ravens this summer at The Landing, and instead of giant cookies and cake slices, this new location will focus on savory comfort food with a gothic twist.

The star of the menu will be “Coffyns,” medieval-inspired stuffed hand pies made with house-made yeast rolls and packed with savory fillings. The concept pulls inspiration from old European pastry cases once used to carry hearty meals during long journeys, which honestly sounds pretty fitting for a full Disney Springs shopping marathon.

Six Ravens will also serve smashed potatoes with specialty dipping sauces, alongside local craft beers from Orlando favorites like Sideward Brewing and The Ravenous Pig.

Disney has not announced an official opening date yet, but Six Ravens is expected to debut sometime this summer.

Since launching in Orlando, Disney Musicals in Schools has helped schools create sustainable theater programs by providing free scripts, performance materials, and coaching support. The initiative is designed to help schools stage their very first productions while giving students hands-on experience with musical theater.

To mark the anniversary, participating students were invited to perform on the Walt Disney Theater stage at Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts during the annual Student Share event. The showcase gave students the chance to perform in a professional theater environment after spending months rehearsing their productions.

More than 200 Disney VoluntEARS attended the event to cheer on the young performers as they brought beloved Disney stories to life in front of friends, family, and fellow students.

According to Dr. Phillips Center Education Director Ryan Simpson, the impact of the program extends far beyond theater skills.

“A decade in, we’ve seen firsthand what happens when students are given the space to create,” Simpson shared. “Through our partnership with Disney, we’ve helped schools across Central Florida build lasting theatre programs that go beyond teaching performance. They shape how young people see themselves and the world around them.”

Universal Orlando Horror Make-Up Show Closing This Month for Major 2026 Reimagining

At Universal Studios Florida, the beloved Horror Make-Up Show will temporarily close beginning May 12, 2026, as Universal prepares to reimagine the fan-favorite attraction. The updated version is expected to open later this year and will feature a mix of classic and modern horror properties, along with new surprises. Universal says the refreshed show will still keep the comedic, irreverent spirit that has made the attraction such a longtime guest favorite, so it sounds like the scares will still come with plenty of laughs.

Universal Orlando Announces Major Changes for Lost Continent and Horror Make Up Show

Over at Universal Islands of Adventure, even bigger changes are brewing in Lost Continent. Universal confirmed that venues and experiences within the land will permanently close in phases over the coming months to make way for an all-new themed area. That includes Mythos Restaurant, which is scheduled to close in 2027. For longtime Universal fans, this marks a major shift, as Lost Continent has been part of Islands of Adventure since the park opened in 1999. While Universal has not yet revealed what will replace it, the announcement confirms that a brand-new themed land is officially on the way.

Thunder Falls Terrace in Jurassic Park will also close this summer as Universal prepares to transform the location into a new dining concept. When it reopens in 2027, the restaurant will become the new signature full-service restaurant at Universal Islands of Adventure. That is a pretty big upgrade for a location many guests know best as a quick-service stop near Jurassic Park River Adventure.

CityWalk is also getting another tasty addition. Fat One’s Hot Dogs & Italian Ice, founded by *NSYNC member Joey Fatone and his manager Joe Mulvihill, is coming to Universal CityWalk. The new location will serve creative hot dogs, Italian ices, and more. It will replace Hot Dog Hall of Fame, which is set to close in July.

These updates join several previously announced projects already in the works, including Five Guys and Luke Combs’ Category 10 coming to CityWalk, along with Fast & Furious: Hollywood Drift, a new high-speed roller coaster racing into Universal Studios Florida in 2027.

Universal says more details about these projects will be shared in the months ahead, but one thing is clear: the resort is not tapping the brakes anytime soon. From new dining to a reimagined horror classic and a mystery themed land at Islands of Adventure, Universal Orlando’s next chapter is already starting to take shape.

Gas Powered Engines to be Phased Out at Disneyland Autopia by Early 2027

Disneyland to Retire Gas Engines at Autopia by Early 2027

The Orange County Register has confirmed that Disneyland Resort now has a definitive timeline for its long-awaited project: retiring Autopia’s traditional gas-powered fleet in favor of a more modern alternative.

Related – Autopia in Disneyland to be Fully Electric by 2026

Autopia

Disneyland is officially accelerating its journey toward a greener future, moving forward with plans to swap the classic gas-powered Autopia fleet for fully electric vehicles. According to reports from the Orange County Register, Disneyland officials have reached a formal agreement with the California Air Resources Board to phase out the attraction’s existing gas engines by early 2027.

The resort is currently in the thick of the “Imagineering” process, developing and testing a fully electric prototype to ensure the new ride vehicles maintain the classic Autopia charm without the exhaust. While the specific dates for the attraction’s temporary closure and subsequent grand reopening have not been revealed, Disney is expected to share more technical details and timelines soon.

This update slightly shifts the timeline originally announced in 2024, which initially aimed for a fall 2026 completion. Under the new agreement, the iconic rumble of gas engines will officially become a thing of the past in early 2027, marking a major milestone in the park’s environmental commitment.

att zsfRkWLysBquirTYKymAFVuxAkpUVnBhvNsPY

As an opening-day original from 1955, Autopia has invited generations of guests to take the wheel on its winding guided roadways. For nearly seven decades, the distinct rumble and scent of gasoline engines have been a signature part of the Tomorrowland experience, making this upcoming shift to electric power a historic milestone for the park.

Over the years, the attraction has evolved through several high-profile partnerships and redesigns. Most recently, Autopia underwent a major refurbishment in 2016 when Honda took over as the official sponsor. According to D23, the ride’s history of sponsorship is a “who’s who” of industry giants, starting with Richfield Oil from 1955 to 1970, followed by Chevron from 2000 to 2012.

Beyond its sponsors, the track itself has seen numerous overhauls in 1959, 1964, and 1968, with the most significant modernization occurring between September 1999 and June 2000 during the Chevron era. This latest transition to electric vehicles marks the next big chapter in the attraction’s 70-year legacy.

att zEZuhIqbtRZ WuiDkrZqyZWcOblDgDxOUjDvNM

While Disneyland’s version prepares for its electric debut, other versions of the legendary “self-driving” attraction continue to entertain guests worldwide. The Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World hosts the Tomorrowland Speedway, while Disneyland Paris operates its own classic iteration. Meanwhile, international parks have seen some changes: Tokyo Disneyland’s Grand Circuit Raceway retired in 2017, and Hong Kong Disneyland’s Autopia closed in 2016. Notably, the Hong Kong version was ahead of its time, utilizing electric cars enhanced by special lighting effects and onboard audio.

This transition to electric power at Disneyland is a cornerstone of the resort’s ambitious sustainability initiative. By phasing out gas engines, Disneyland Resort is taking a significant step toward its goal of reaching net zero emissions by 2030, focusing on reducing its overall carbon footprint and championing the use of clean, renewable energy.
