Haha everyone goes to sleep early at Grand Floridian….

Shame they couldn’t pop up an orchestra one night a year and do a $1000 a person black tie event in the lobby or something…. That would be epic and something I’d consider paying for at least once in my lifetime!

Preparations Begins For the Gingerbread House at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort​

Well, with the holiday season just around the corner, the Grand Floridian Bakery team is getting ready to work.

When visiting the resort today, we noticed that space had been cleared in the Grand Floridian lobby and tile had been laid down.

Soon, the smell of gingerbread will be wafting through the Grand Floridian Resort’s lobby, and guests can watch another holiday masterpiece come to life!

Mmmmm….. I can already smell the gingerbread. Wish I was there for the free samples as they build it!

GINGERBREAD HOUSE UPDATE:

Hey all! It was reported on FB they are already building the wooden structure of the house!

Work Begins on the Gingerbread House at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort

Bakery artisans and construction crews are already working hard in the Grand Floridian lobby, building this year’s gingerbread house!

The building’s infrastructure is currently being installed before the gingerbread festivities begin in earnest.

Here is another look at the infrastructure of the house.

As you can see, construction crews are on hand to ensure everything is installed correctly.

The entire area is roped off. A sign out front notes that Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa Gingerbread House is coming soon!

With just two days until Halloween, the holiday season will arrive in full at Walt Disney World before we know it.

Adding to my post above:

NEW Grand Floridian Resort Loungefly Minnie Ears & Backpack

There are two new Grand Floridian items available now in Curiouser Clothiers at the resort!

Bag - $89

Ears - $44.99

First up, we have these new Minnie Ears.

These look very similar to the other Grand Floridian ears we’ve seen here in the past, but they’ve been slightly redesigned.

These eras are made by Loungefly, so they’re a little more expensive at $44.99.

They have the Grand Floridian logo on the ears and on the pendant in the middle of the bow.

There is also a matching Loungefly mini backpack to go with these ears!

The front pocket is light blue with the Grand Floridian logo.

The pattern is even on the inside of the front pocket…

…and the main part of the backpack.

The side pockets are light blue and the zippers are embroidered with gold.

The back also has the pattern and the straps are light blue!
