Stepping Into Andy’s Backyard! – A few hours in Disney’s NEW Toy Story Land

Let’s step into Andy’s Backyard!- At Disney’s Hollywood Studios!

Now if you haven’t heard that Disney opened up Toy Story Land in Hollywood Studios I’m not sure we can be friends….

KIDDING! Of course! Read my blog to find out all about it!!

Disney opened up the new land June 30th, and ever since I heard about the opening of the new land I was super excited because Disney knows how to do things. Especially after seeing the Pandora area of Animal Kingdom, I knew Toy Story would be even more special.

Being a Cast Member I was blocked out of getting into Hollywood Studios for the first week or so, but this past week I was allowed to enter. So my husband and I did just that!

We got to Hollywood Studios around 9am and booked it over to Slinky Dog Dash and surprisingly only had a 55 minute wait for the ride! The queue was absolutely adorable! So much attention to detail! Green army men holding up Elmer’s glue, Crayons, Board Game boxes, and so much more 90s memorabilia. The wait went super quick! They even had a cast member selling snacks and water in the middle of the queue incase you are getting a little hangry…..!

Now I was expecting a Big Thunder Mountain type of ride because the height requirements are about the same. But this ride went a bit higher and had a few more bigger drops. It was a lot of fun, and I mean you are riding on Slinky Dog!!! The ride sped up and slowed down on different parts that weren’t expected. And ending was super cute! And that is all that I am going to tell you about the ride because YOU NEED TO RIDE IT!

After riding Slinky Dog, we needed food. Since we were there so early Woody’s Lunch Box was still serving breakfast! We ordered three different things off the breakfast menu: the Raspberry Lunch Box Tart (they also offered a chocolate hazelnut version), the S’more French Toast Sandwich, and a Breakfast Bowl.

Raspberry Box Tart $3.29– um YUM. It was honestly like a handheld pie, and it was a very decent size for $3.29. It had a hard frosting like a pop tart would have, with crispy balls and raspberry crunchies on the top. The crust tasted like the best crust you’ve had on a pie. I am actually craving another one as I write about it.

S’more French Toast Sandwich $7.99– This was very tasty! Two pieces of french toast with warm melted chocolate and marshmallow in the middle. A must try if you are into sweets for breakfast!

Breakfast Bowl $8.49– If you are into a heartier breakfast, this was an excellent choice! It had tater tots (which they called Breakfast barrels on the menu) with a gravy sauce on top of it that seemed to have pieces of brisket in it. Then scrambled eggs on the very top. This was really yummy and enjoyable.

For breakfast they also offer: Smoked Turkey Sandwich $7.49 and a Banana Split Yogurt Parfait $5.99. They also offer kids versions of the S’more French Toast, Breakfast Bowl, and Smoked Turkey Breakfast sandwich. Along with specialty beverages and sides for various prices.

After breakfast we walked towards the Alien Swirling Saucers, and decided not to go on them that day, but they looked so cute and fun!! We ran into some Green Army Men who were recruiting some soldiers and training them!

On our way out we also walked by Woody and Jessie! Woody gave my husband a high five, and then we saw Buzz meeting with guests.

The new Toy Story Land, is an AMAZING experience and so much fun, with tons of attention to detail. I recommend you get there and try it out for yourself!
