People left outraged after dad shares Disneyland breakfast receipt

A father has shocked people with a photo of his receipt from a 'Princess Breakfast' at Disneyland California.
Taking to X, John '@jrockandrollt' wrote: 'Princess Breakfast at Disneyland with my kids. Almost spit out my coffee.
'If I find that goddamn mouse I am going to mug him.'
In the photo of his receipt shared alongside his post, the father revealed he spent $937.65/£695 on the lavish breakfast, including a tip of $150/£111.
He explained there were five people in total at the brunch - two children and three adults - meaning the price came to $187/£139 per person.
The father also shared a photo of the breakfast in the comments, revealing his meal included beef steak, a devilled egg, asparagus and prawns.
And when it came to drinks, the group had just one alcoholic beverage, a Bloody Mary, with their meal.
Many commenters were shocked by the price of the breakfast with one person joking: 'How many princesses did you eat?'
Another person says: 'There isn't a meal on this Earth worth that much.'
On its website, Disney describes its Princess Breakfast as a 'unforgettable 3-course breakfast' accompanied by 'enchanting encounters with some favourite Disney Princesses'.
Appetisers could include mini lobster rolls, beignets and banana wraps, and a child main's course consists of chicken and Mickey waffles, while adults could opt for devilled eggs, turkey sausage and truffle mac and cheese.
The website also states that the price of the breakfast starts at $142/£105 a person.
And for this reason, many people on X felt that John should have been aware that he was booking a luxury experience.
One person writes: 'Bro they tell you the price when you book. If you're surprised that's on you.'
And 'Ray Q' says: 'Why? You should know roughly how much it would cost before you had it.'
'Parenting in the USA' says: 'They are pretty clear at the Grand California about the cost of that per guest and it takes months to get a reservation. How was the experience over all?'
Despite his shock at the price, John admits that he 'enjoyed' the Princess Brunch experience, saying: 'It was fun, the food was probably 7/10, service was attentive and enthusiastic, princesses were all trained pro actresses and spent a lot of time with the kids. I enjoyed it.'
In another comment, he adds: 'Kids enjoyed it, so I think it was worth it. The kids definitely learned some new words when I opened the bill though.'
The Disney Princess Breakfast Adventures are held at the Trillium Room in Disney's Grand Californian Hotel & Spa.
Disney says 'advance reservations are highly recommended' and can be made online or on the Disney app.

BREAKING NEWS Travis Kelce set for Taylor Swift reunion as NFL star lands in New York after brief return to Chiefs practice

Travis Kelce was pictured landing in New York on Friday night ahead of a potential reunion with girlfriend Taylor Swift. The Chiefs star has been away from the singer in recent days after returning to Kansas City for the team's three-day mandatory training camp. Kelce's slimmed down physique after a grueling offseason was the talk of the practice field as he prepares for the new NFL season after deciding not to retire. But he quickly fled Kansas City to return to New York and was seen stepping off a private jet with bags and a tablet in his hands. It is unclear if Swift is in the Big Apple but the couple have spent plenty of time together in the city before. Kelce was dressed casual in a US soccer T-shirt, blue shorts, and white trainers. He was joined on the trip by close friend and former teammate Ross Travis. The airport's baggage handlers appeared to be removing a set of golf clubs from the plane, with Kelce maybe trying to get some practice in before an appearance at the famous American Century Celebrity tournament early next month. Baggage handlers were carrying a set of golf clubs ahead of Kelce's appearance in an event Kelce and Swift were last seen together at Game 4 of the Stanley Cup in Florida last week. The superstar couple, who had been enjoying a romantic vacation in Florida during Travis' offseason break, were spotted taking in some NHL action between the Panthers and Edmonton Oilers. Reports on the night claimed a helicopter landed near the venue roughly 50 minutes before the puck drop, with the VIP entrance and elevators to the press box also closed to the public as Kelce and Swift made their grand arrival. They were first seen walking through the corridors of the arena and heading out to their seats shortly after the game had begun in Florida. The pop megastar wore a stylish cream white jacket with matching shorts and vanilla leather boots, while her beau opted for more of a casual look in a red sweater, matching shorts, white sneakers and a baseball cap. Yet despite talk of a secret wedding, Taylor was not flashing a wedding ring at the game, instead wearing the sparkly diamond 'TNT' bracelet - short for 'Travis and Taylor' - that her lover famously had made for her last year. They were then picked out by TNT Sports cameras sitting in the stands as Kelce showed his girlfriend something on his phone. Swift seemed in astonishment at whatever he had on his screen as she appeared to say: 'Oh wow!' They were in the house for a dramatic encounter between the Panthers and Oilers in Florida It has been a particularly busy week for Kelce. Not only did he practice in Kansas City but he was also in Cannes with brother Jason. The duo were among the invited guests at the Amazon Port Panel in the iconic French town, where the Kelces dutifully promoted their highly successful podcast, New Heights. Less than 24 hours later, Travis was back to work at his other job preparing for the upcoming 2025 NFL campaign. Unlike last year, when he and Swift couldn't stay out of the spotlight, Travis has enjoyed a much quieter break from NFL duties this time around, with the couple keen to unwind together away from the cameras in recent months.

Holiday hotspot overrun with movie fans celebrating Jaws' 50th anniversary

Martha's Vineyard has been overrun with movie fans celebrating the 50th anniversary of the 'Jaws' film. The Steven Spielberg film debuted on June 20, 1975, and became a quick success in the film industry. It broke box office records and won three Oscars for best music, best film editing and best sound. The thriller takes place on the fictional Amity Island, which is based on Martha's Vineyard off the Massachusetts coast, and follows police chief Martin Brody, who works to hunt down the antagonist great white shark, with the help of others. Fifty years later, those who made 'Jaws' popular are flocking to Martha's Vineyard to celebrate the film, and the locals have a bunch of fun activities in store for them. Martha's Vineyard is already a popular tourist destination with as many as 200,000 visitors during the summer, USA TODAY reported, citing the local Chamber of Commerce. This weekend, officials expect tens of thousands more visitors than usual. Hotels are fully booked and Jaws fans are ready for a plethora of movie-themed events, including the film, a documentary about its production, a live performance of the movie's score and more, according to the Chamber of Commerce's Executive Director Erica Ashton and Deputy Director Alessandra Hagerty. 'There's like 'Jaws' mania, pretty much,' Hagerty told USA TODAY. Visitors can also attend parties with some of the 'Jaws' cast and crew, get 'Jaws'-themed merchandise at the local shops and restaurants, and attend a baseball game for the local Sharks team. Michael Currid, owner of Edgartown Tour Company, told USA TODAY that he's already had 'exponentially more' advance bookings for his 'Jaws' walking tour, where visitors can follow the path taken by police chief Brody in the film, than he has in 15 years. 'I'm confident that, at least from the 'Jaws' side, this will be my biggest season ever,' he said. While the 'Jaws' anniversary has inspired some fun events that are sure to support Martha's Vineyard's tourism effort, it's also important to remember the essential role sharks play in the ecosystem and how to keep yourself safe in open waters. Great white sharks are the only natural predators of seals in the waters along Cape Cod, according to the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy. 'When apex predators are absent, food web dynamics can be disrupted - populations of prey species can grow unchecked and may in turn limit populations of their prey,' the conservancy wrote on its website. While sharks can be interesting to learn about, it's important to follow a few safety tips so you don't encounter them in the wild. The National Park Service says to be aware that sharks hunt for seals in shallow water and to stay close to the shore where rescuers can reach you. It's also important to limit splashing and avoid murky water, according to the service.

FAA says Jacksonville Air Route Traffic Control Center experiencing telecommunications issue

WASHINGTON, June 20 (Reuters) - The Federal Aviation Administration said on Friday that the Jacksonville Air Route Traffic Control Center in Florida is experiencing a telecommunications issue that has resulted in a loss of radar, frequencies, and automation equipment. The center continues to operate, according to the agency, which added that there is no loss of critical air traffic services due to the redundancies in both the equipment and telecommunications. The FAA said L3Harris (LHX.N), opens new tab and the local exchange providers have engaged and have initially identified the source of the outage as a fiber cut in Florida. It added that a local exchange carrier is on site and working to repair the issue. The center is responsible for 160,000 square miles (414,400 sq km) of airspace and covers parts of five states, including Florida and Georgia, according to the FAA.
