Today’s weather was lovely, and the start of a big warm up here in Orlando. Wait times across all Disney World theme parks are pretty average today, ranking toward the middle of the past 30 days. Magic Kingdom was the busiest park, and it came close to have the highest wait time of all four parks, but Na’vi River Journey snuck in above it.
Compared to our actual wait time data, Disney’s posted wait times were about as accurate as we expect, in the 70% range. We received 168 actual wait times from our Lines app users – thank you, Liners! At Magic Kingdom today our team counted 477 out of 500 (95%) guests wearing their masks in accordance with Disney’s policy. With it being warmer we tend to see a little dip in mask compliance. Let’s do the numbers!

Mickey Mouse
From an Up designer eat hat to BaubleBar designer ears, we’ve seen some pretty cool accessories here at DFB. Just a few days ago, we spotted an iconic tribute to the main Mouse himself over at EPCOT: a Designer Mickey Ear Hat! And while we oohed and ahhed at it in the parks, it wasn’t available online — until now.
That’s right — soon, you’ll be able to buy this ear hat on shopDisney! Let’s check it out! The hat portion is a blank white canvas with illustrations of Mickey Mouse animation through the years.
Yes, we got emotional over a hat
One of the ears features a classic Walt Disney quote: “…that is was all started by a mouse.” Are we REALLY getting emotional over a hat?!

The other side has Mickey Mouse’s colorful name on an ear. We love the bright “Mickey Mouse” text that patterns the white canvas, too!
