Good morning from the Magic Kingdom! There’s so much to see and so little time, so let’s get started.

The new 50th anniversary white metal water bottles and glitter logo Spirit Jersey are in stock at The Emporium.

The White Castle Collection Loungefly backpack that was previously sold out for awhile is not in short supply either.

An iridescent (not EARidescent unfortunately) Minnie Mouse matching necklace set is out near the back of the shop.

A few planters were placed around the castle hiding some lighting rigs.

The railroad Dress Shop dress we found at Disney Springs has arrived at Uptown Jewelers but it appears as though we still received the wrong park. For full details of everything we found today be sure to check our daily merchandise roundup.

The MaDe shirt kiosk in Tomorrowland Power & Supply Co. has new Alice in Wonderland “Awesome Party 1951” photo, Snow White “All Kinds of Magic”, & Ariel “Mermaid Hair Don’t Care” shirts available for customization.

Over at TRON, work continues on the panels under the canopy.

In Fantasyland just behind the castle, more planters are covering the area where the Stepsisters usually are sighted.

Despite large holiday crowds, many of the Lightning Lanes this morning had few to no guests in them.

A few microphones and what appears to be stage equipment are placed up top over Country Bear Jamboree.

Back inside the Emporium, a Mickey and Minnie Mouse plaid glass ornament has arrived.

“The World’s Most Magical Celebration” along with Cinderella Castle is engraved onto a wooden memo pad at Crystal Arts.

Taking a trip on the EPCOT Monorail Line, we went to look at all of the construction happening at the park. One side of the Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind attraction building seems to be completed painting.

Connections Cafe continues installing windows and scaffolding remains in place on one side of the building.

Construction at Journey of Water inspired by Moana has its workers making moves under the ground while they dig trenches and more concrete supports are added for new foundations.

Finishing our day on a sweet note, we made our way to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort where the limited time offering Stroke of Midnight cupcake is celebrating the New Year early.

Thanks for following along today!
