Magic Kingdom's Tomorrowland - Exploring the "World", One "Land" at a Time!

Now that we've finished our adventures in the past, we make our way across the hub and into the future!! Walt Disney had a well-known interest in space travel. This land in Magic Kingdom pays tribute to Walt's dreams of what the future could bring.

Feel the thrill of racing when you get behind the wheel at Tomorrowland Speedway. Drive these gas-powered cars around a 4/10 mile track and feel like a winner when the checkered flag is waved! These cars are on a guided track, so kids that meet the height requirement can take the wheel.

Here's a little before and after for you. I found the images on the left in an old family album from 1975. The ones on the right are from current trips. In 1974, this ride opened in MK as Star Jets based on the Disneyland version. The attraction was redesigned and reopened on April 30, 1994 as Astro Orbiter, part of the complete renovation of the park's Tomorrowland section. Set atop the Peoplemover platform, this ride gives an incredible view of the park. However, it may not be good for guests who have a problem with heights. Once was enough for me!

On my last visit to Tomorrowland, guests put on their dancing shoes for the Club 626 Dance Party. The party still continues, but it is now called the Incredibles Super Dance Party! Guests can now show off their dance moves with Mr. & Mrs. Incredible and Frozone! It's an out-of-this-world good time!

In 2004, the ExtraTerrorestrial Alien Encounter was replaced with Stitch's Great Escape. This seems to be a love it or hate it ride in Tomorrowland. It's been voted least favorite ride on many forums. However, as a Stitch fan, I enjoy it. Guests watch a humorous pre-show before being led into a circular theater. As you are strapped into your seat, my advice is to sit up tall. The only part of the attraction I dislike, the automatic shoulder harness is a bit too tight for my taste, so if you sit up tall until it locks into place, you have a little breathing room. Then, it becomes a wild time as Stitch escapes from captivity and causes havoc.

Across the "galaxy" from Stitch, you can head in to Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin. This ride-on video game will have you shooting targets and competing for high scores. Will you be number one??

First, it was the WEDway Peoplemover. Then it was the Tomorrowland Transit Authority. Now, it is officially the Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover. This mass transit system of the future takes you on a 10-minute ride through Tomorrowland with some unique looks at the most popular rides. It is powered completely by magnets so it is environmentally friendly as well. If you ride the Peoplemover when Space Mountain is down, you will get a special peek inside while the dome lights are on for a rare look at the track layouts.

I have to say this is my favorite quick service restaurant in MK. Cosmic Ray's Starlight Cafe offers more than just the standard chicken nuggets and burgers (but, they have those too!). You can also get soups, sandwiches and even a rotisserie chicken dinner! Plus they have a toppings bar with all the toppings you can imagine. While you eat, you can enjoy an out-of-this-world lounge act by the one and only Sonny Eclipse.

The monsters are no longer collecting screams. They are in the laugh business now! So, they have opened up this comedy club in Tomorrowland called the Monsters Inc Laugh Floor. Mike Wazowski is yourMonster of Ceremonies for this funny, interactive show. The jokes keep coming until the laugh canister is full. While waiting, guests can text in jokes that may be used in the show.

Magic Kingdom's first "thrill" ride, Space Mountain, opened January 15, 1975. It would be the first of the three mountain rides at Magic Kingdom. Space Mountain is an indoor, in-the-dark, outer space themed steel roller coaster. It remains the oldest operating roller coaster in the state of Florida. 

The Carousel of Progress was an attraction created by Walt Disney for the 1964 World's Fair. It was then moved to Disneyland until 1973. It was then placed in the Magic Kingdom in 1975. The show follows a family through the technological advances of the 20th Century. It is reported to have been Walt's favorite attraction and is the only attraction in WDW that has been touched by Disney himself. It also features the classic song "There's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow". It is a wonderful nostalgic ride. 

Tomorrowland is full of treats to satisfy you. Tomorrowland Terrace Restaurant is open seasonally for burgers, pasta and more. It has also become home to the famous dessert parties that give you a fabulous fireworks view while enjoying a huge buffet of sweet treats. Auntie Gravity's Galactic Goodies is your stop for smoothies and frozen treats. Or, try the Lunching Pad for specialty hot dogs and more.

You can also find out-of-this-world gifts and souvenirs in Tomorrowland. Check out Merchants of Venus, Mickey's Star Traders, Space Mountain shop and Buzz's Star Command!

Some Tomorrowland FUN FACTS:

*While riding the TTA Peoplemover, you will pass a model of a city which gives us a glimpse of what Walt envisioned for the City of the Future, which was the original idea for EPCOT.
*When passing the Tomorrowland Speedway, heading towards the Mad Tea Party, you will discover the only area in Magic Kingdom where no music is piped in because Imagineers could find no natural way to transition from Tomorrowland to Fantasyland.
*Tomorrowland was not completed when Magic Kingdom opened. There were only 2 attractions open at that time, Grand Prix Raceway and Skyway to Fantasyland.
*Tomorrowland was not completed to its original design until 1975.
*To become a Galactic Hero at Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin, you need to score at least 900,000 points.

Magic Kingdom's Liberty Square - Exploring the "World", One "Land" at a Time

Next, we visit another period in history: Colonial America. Liberty Square opened as one of the six original themed lands at Walt Disney World's grand opening on October 1, 1971. It is the only land yet to undergo a major refurbishment. All of the attractions, original from October 1, 1971, still exist in some form or another. No major additions have been made.

As you stroll through Liberty Square, the design and decor have a very colonial feel. The Liberty Tree is more than 100 years old and is the largest living specimen in Magic Kingdom. It represents the original Liberty Tree christened in Boston by the Sons of Liberty in 1765. It features 13 hanging lanterns to represent the original 13 colonies. You will also find a replica of the original Liberty Bell. In 1976, 50 replica bells were created, one for each state to place in honor of the bicentennial. Since Pennsylvania already had the original Liberty Bell, Walt Disney World requested their replica years later. Pennsylvania agreed and it was place in Magic Kingdom on July 4, 1989. And be careful not to get into any trouble while you're there, or you may end up in the stockade!! 

Take a riverboat ride on the Rivers of America around Tom Sawyer Island aboard the Liberty Belle. A pre-recorded narration plays along your tour. Magic Kingdom once featured two riverboats, the Admiral Joe Fowler which was retired in 1980 and the Richard F. Irvine, which was refitted and renamed the Liberty Belle in 1996.

A favorite dinner spot is Liberty Tree Tavern. Currently undergoing an extensive refurbishment, this restaurant is due to re-open in November, 2015. You can get more info and read reviews under our group's files section.

One of the most patriotic and educational attractions at Walt Disney World is the Hall of Presidents. The lobby displays some historic memorabilia including gowns and place settings from some of the White House's most memorable First Ladies. The multi-media show features a film about the history of America and a stage show featuring audio-animatronic figures of all the U.S. Presidents, some of whom stand and address the audience. It's a lovely and informative show and it displays the hard work and dedication of Walt Disney in developing the human-like audio-animatronic figures. 

A favorite meet and greet in Liberty Square is princess Tiana, sometimes accompanied by Prince Naveen.

Liberty Square is home to my personal favorite ride in all of Walt Disney World, The Haunted Mansion. By a happy coincidence, this ride officially opened at Disneyland on the day I was born August 12, 1969. It was an opening day attraction at WDW. Guests enter the mansion and are introduced to the ride at a walkthrough show narrated by your Ghost Host. After which, you board your "Doom Buggy" and are taken through the mansion where you will find the 999 Happy Haunts. An interactive queue line was added in 2011. This ride showcases some of the best audio-animatronics and special effects of any attraction at Disney and is fun for all ages. It is definitely not your "typical" haunted house ride!

There is plenty to satisfy the hungry in Liberty Square. The Diamond Horseshoe is open seasonally, serving a quick service lunch or an all-you-can-eat dinner. Or, visit Columbia Harbor House for a counter service lunch or dinner featuring some tasty seafood favorites. For something on the go, visit Sleepy Hollow refreshments. Always a favorite spot to pick up funnel cakes or Mickey waffles. 

Now, some Liberty Square Fun Facts:

*Did you ever notice that all the maps and artifacts in Columbia Harbor House are dedicated to a ghost ship or a ship lost at sea? It's no coincidence since you look out the windows and see the Haunted Mansion.

*In keeping with authenticity, there are no restrooms in Liberty Square (except those required in full service restaurants) as there would have been no indoor toilets in colonial times.

*Notice the doors around Liberty Square have two numbers on them resembling an address. But if you put an 18 in front of each number, it represents the year that style of house would have been popular. Look in the upstairs window next to the house with number 26 on the door. There are two lanterns that represent the lanterns hung to warn Paul Revere the British were coming by sea.

*Do you love to ride the Haunted Mansion at night? Look up at the top story window above the front door and you will occasionally see a ghost moving about.

*Does your Ghost Host sound familiar? Not only did Paul Frees provide the voice for the auctioneer in POTC, but he also voiced Ludwig von Drake, Boris Badenov and even the Pillsbury Doughboy!

*The pipe organ in the ballroom scene is a replica of the organ used in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.

*Notice the singing bust that looks very much like Walt? He is actually voiced by Thurl Ravenscroft who also voiced Tony the Tiger and sang the infamous song "You're a Mean One, Mr. Grinch".

*The real Madame Leota, Leota Toombs, can be heard in the attraction, but NOT coming from the crystal ball because her voice was considered too child-like. She is the voice of the bride above the exit door urging you to "hurry back". The voice of the Leota in the crystal ball is none other than Eleanor Audley who famously voiced Maleficent  in Sleeping Beauty and the Wicked Stepmother in Cinderella.

Magic Kingdom's Frontierland - Exploring the "World", One "Land" at a Time

As we leave Adventureland, we head into Frontierland. When Walt Disney World opened in 1971, there were only 3 attractions in Frontierland: Walt Disney World Railroad, Davy Crockett's Explorer Canoes (which operated until 1991) and the world debut of Country Bear Jamboree. Over the years, Frontierland would become home to some of the biggest and best-loved thrill rides in Magic Kingdom. So get ready for a rootin tootin good time as we step back in time to the Old West.

Splash Mountain is a log flume ride in Frontierland. It features the story of Brer Rabbit as told by Uncle Remus in "Song of the South". Guests are taken through the story with lively songs such as "How Do You Do" and "Everybody's Got a Laughing Place". The climax of the rides takes you down a 52 foot drop into the Briar Patch! Afterwards, everyone celebrates the return of Brer Rabbit with a rowdy rendition of "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah". The bright coloring of this ride makes it visually stunning and provides what I think are the best in-ride photos of any attraction.

Next to Splash Mountain is the second of the three mountain "thrills" found in Magic Kingdom, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. Dodge waterfalls and rockslides as you streak through a haunted mining town on a runaway mine train. 

This has to be one of the most loved quick services restaurants in the park, Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe. It is PACKED all the time! They offer indoor and outdoor seating and offer sandwiches and taco salads. The best part of this restaurant is a toppings bar that can't be beat. They have enough toppings to make your meal a mile high!

Travel on log rafts across the Rivers of America to Tom Sawyer Island. You can follow in the footsteps of early American settlers on this self-guided tour of dirt roads, caves, forts and more. The design of the island mirrors the one in Disneyland which was designed by Walt Disney himself. Adults can relax in rocking chairs under the shade trees while kids play at Fort Sam Clemens. You can also check out the working water wheel. 

The Country Bear Jamboree is a fun and lively stage show. The band of audio-animatronic bears perform a country music concert with fun help from some of their other animal friends in the audience. Country Bear Jamboree made its debut in Walt Disney World and was so popular it was then added to Disneyland. It also launched a spin-off show in both parks called the Country Bear Christmas Special. It is also another of the famous Disney attractions to inspire its own movie.

For some big kid fun, you can try your skills at the Frontierland Shootin Arcade. Set against Old West backdrops, there are nearly 100 interactive targets. Rifles do not shoot projectiles. They use infrared technology to register hits. An additional fee is required to play. 

If you need a pick-me-up in Frontierland, the Golden Oak Outpost is open seasonally and offers sandwiches, chicken nuggets and fries. Or, stop by Westward Ho for some frozen lemonade, a corndog or other snacks. 

Before leaving this land, you can pick up some cute souvenirs at Big Al's or the Briar Patch. Or, you can stop in the Frontier Trading Post to buy some pins or do some pin trading!

Some Frontierland Fun Facts:
*Head up the stairs to the train station in Frontierland and listen closely. You will hear Morse code coming from the telegraph office. It is transmitting Walt Disney's opening day speech at Disneyland. 
*Splash Mountain's proper name is Chick-a-pin Hill
*Ever ride Big Thunder Mountain railroad at night? As your train roars past the saloon, take a quick peek at the second floor window and you will see a wild party in progress! But, you won't see it during the day.
*The setting for Splash Mountain is Mississippi, but it was painted with red coloring to compliment Big Thunder Mountain, so its coloring is geographically incorrect.
*Fort Sam Clemens is named for Mark Twain, author of Tom Sawyer. Samuel Clemens is his real name.
*Country Bear Jamboree is a show that was designed by Walt Disney for Disney's Mineral King Ski Resort in the 1960's which was never build after Walt's death.

Magic Kingdom's Adventureland - Exploring the "World", One "Land" at a Time

Grab your best matey and get ready to explore Adventureland! From jungles to deserts to the high seas, you are sure to have a great time here! 

Our first stop is Swiss Family Robinson Treehouse. This attraction, based on the movie, takes you through the amazing treehouse the family built after being stranded on an island following a pirate attack. The house is filled with cool antiques and items that the family salvaged from their wrecked ship to build their home. To see it all, you need to be able to climb 116 steps! If you can't do it, or are afraid of heights, Disney suggests you skip this attraction.

Next on our adventure, we board the Jungle Cruise. We board our boats and are taken on a guided tour of the world's major rivers. Our skipper points out all the interesting scenes along the way and keeps us laughing with some of the world's corniest jokes! This is one of the original rides at Walt Disney World and features many audio-animatronic animals that Disney is famous for. A relaxing and entertaining family ride! 

Fans of the Jungle Cruise were delighted this August with the announcement of the new Skipper Canteen restaurant to be opened in Adventureland. At the Skipper Canteen, guests will be able to experience "World Famous Jungle Cuisine" in one of several unique dining rooms - including a crew mess hall and a once-hidden secret meeting room of the famed Society of Explorer and Adventurers. The restaurant will also be staffed by Jungle Cruise Skippers, so you know there is fun in store! Currently under construction, this new restaurant is expected to open in late 2015.  

Has anyone NOT heard of the Dole Whip yet? I have to wonder if this is not the most famous attraction in all of Adventureland. You can find them at Aloha Isle and you can try them in Pineapple, Orange, Vanilla or swirl ice cream. Or try a Dole Whip Float!

As we emerge from the Jungles, we are whisked away to the Far East and the markets of Agrabah. You can take flight on the Magic Carpets of Aladdin for a bird's eye view of the market (and a peek at the rest of the kingdom too!). Just beware of the camels...they spit! After this enchanting ride, you can stick around to meet Agrabah's favorite royals, Aladdin and Jasmine. 

The Enchanted Tiki Room was the first attraction at Disneyland to feature audio-animatronics with a cast of over 150 talking, singing and dancing birds. When Walt Disney World opened in 1971, an almost identical show was placed there called Tropical Serenade. It was replaced in 1998 with The Enchanted Tiki Room Under New Management and featured Zazu and Iago from The Lion King and Aladdin. In January 2011, a small fire broke out in the attic of the attraction and poor Iago was heavily damaged. It was decided that the attraction would be refurbished and return to the original show format, which it was on August 15, 2011. Many Disney purists prefer this version of the show.

After you visit the Tiki Room, you can stop by Sunshine Tree Terrace to grab a refreshing snack. They have soft-serve ice cream, fruit slushes, floats and more to cool off. If it's a chilly day, you can also get coffee, lattee, espresso and more!

Now we have arrived at my favorite section of Adventureland. Yo Ho, Yo Ho, A Pirate's Life for Me!! Pirates of the Caribbean was the last ride at Disneyland to be personally overseen by Walt Disney. It was brought to Walt Disney World in 1973. It is housed in a Spanish fort called Castillo del Morro inspired by Castillo de San Felipe del Morro in Old San Juan. Because of the success of the movies, it was refurbished in 2006 to add characters from the movie including Barbossa and the infamous Captain Jack Sparrow. The newest changes include Blackbeard replacing Davy Jones in the waterfall and mermaids zooming through the waters near the deserted beach. Mermaids are quick! It may take a few rides to spot them. The also added a mermaid skeleton on the beach in the wrecked boat. I have personally seen all three versions and have to say, it just keeps getting better! Disney has perfectly blended the iconic scenes we all know and love (who doesn't get chills when you hear the echoing "Dead Men Tell No Tales"?) with the lively screen characters that have become such a success. Also, we can usually find some of our favorite pirate characters for meet and greets around this ride and it all ends with (in my opinion) one of the best gift shops in the park, full of booty I just LOVE to buy!

Now you can become one of the crew! After transforming you into a real pirate, you will be trained by Captain Jack's crew and get your new pirate name at The Pirate's League. Choose a pirate makeover or a mermaid makeover. You need to make advance reservations at 407-939-2739.

Another can't-miss attraction in Adventureland is Captain Jack Sparrow's Pirate Tutorial. The captain and his first mate teach us all the basics of being a pirate. Then he chooses some children from the audience and initiates them into the crew. All the children chosen get an official certificate from the captain himself. 

Once you've become a full-fledged pirate, it's time to put your skills to the test. In A Pirate's Adventures: Treasures of the Seven Seas, needs your help to raid 5 treasures throughout Adventureland. You can get your magic talisman at the Crow's Nest to complete your mission. If you're successful, you will be christened and official member of Captain Jack's crew!

In February, 2011 El Pirata Y El Perico became Tortuga Tavern in keeping with the Pirates of the Caribbean movie theme. Most of the decor and menu remained the same. This elusive little restaurant may be best known for rarely being open. I admit that it has always eluded me when I visit. It's a quaint little counter service restaurant offering Mexican favorites if you are lucky enough to find it open.


Now that we've had our fill of adventure, it's time to travel back to the Old West for some of the biggest thrills in Magic Kingdom!

Magic Kingdom's Main Street U.S.A. - Exploring the "World", One "Land" at a Time

Our exploration brings us to our final park, Magic Kingdom. Here you will find six lands with attractions sure to please every member of the family. 

Main Street U.S.A, the first land you enter in Magic Kingdom, is modeled after a typical small town in turn-of-the-century America. This land immediately transports you back in time. As you step through the gates of Magic Kingdom, you know that you have left the real world behind. With Cinderella Castle looming in the distance, Main Street U.S.A. can seem to excited guests like a beautifully decorated "walkway" to the magic. But before you make a dash for bigger adventure, slow down and take the time to appreciate the welcome Disney has given us with this land. There is much more to do and see here than you may know!

Most town services are run from Town Square and the same is true here on Main Street U.S.A. This is the spot you want to head to if you are need of any type of service. Guest Relations is located in City Hall, Package Pick-up is located in the Chamber of Commerce. You will also find restrooms, ATM and a defibrillator here. You can stop by the firehouse to learn a cool new game (more info later) and Harmony Barber Shop for a quick makeover! As the Magic Kingdom opens each morning, Town Square is filled with all your favorite characters and you may even find a few locals resting on benches around the area! From Town Square, you can also enjoy a ride on a double-decker bus or a horse-drawn carriage. And don't forget to stop by Town Square Theater to say hello to the one and only talking Mickey Mouse!

Guests pass through a tunnel under the Walt Disney Railroad Station to enter the Magic Kingdom. Main Street U.S.A. is the first stop for the Walt Disney Railroad. It also makes stops in Frontierland and Fantasyland. Did you know that this steam-powered railroad transports more than 1.5 MILLION passengers each year? The railroad has four locomotives, each named for those who contributed greatly to the Walt Disney Company and Walt Disney World. They are: Walter E. Disney, Lilly Belle, Roger E. Broggie, and Roy O. Disney. Each morning, our favorite Disney characters along with citizens of Main Street arrive at the station to welcome guests with a rousing rendition of "Good Morning". A must-see in my opinion!

This is probably my favorite place on Main Street! The Emporium is a mega-store that runs down the entire left side of Main Street U.S.A. Although they look like separate buildings from the outside, they connect inside to different rooms where you can buy just about everything and anything Disney has to offer. A shopper's paradise! 

One of the fun things about Main Street U.S.A. is the cast members in the period costumes. Some of them really play the part!! 

One of the latest additions to Main Street U.S.A. is the Sorcerers of Magic Kingdom game. You can stop by the firehouse for your free game cards and a tutorial on how to play. Sorcerer's of Magic Kingdom is an interactive game where Merlin recruits you as his newest apprentice and sends you throughout Magic Kingdom to battle Disney villains. Even if you don't play the game, the cards are cute collectible keepsakes, and they're free!

Aside from the standard souvenirs at the Emporium, Main Street U.S.A. is home to many specialty shops where you can find treasures you won't find anywhere else on property. The Chapeau is one of the few places left where you can still get embroidered ear hats. Crystal Arts features Arribas Brothers glassworks. Uptown Jewelers has snowglobes, frames, charms and pins. You can visit Main Street Gallery for books, posters, lithographs and more. Or try Main Street Athletic Club for sports apparel and equipment. Don't forget sweet treats at Main Street Confectionary or Disney Clothiers for great fashions. Plus find more Disney souvenir merchandise at Main Street Cinema and Disney & Co.

I'm sure we all know by now that the windows on Main Street are a tribute to all those who contributed to the success of "Disney". But how many of us really take the time to look at them all? I confess that I keep "meaning to" but more often than not, get swept away in everything else happening. If you want to learn more about the windows, check out this great article: http://www.mouseplanet.com/7095/Windows_on_Main_Street_Part_1

Main Street U.S.A. offers the full spectrum of dining for Disney World guests. From snacks to quick service, table service to character dining, there are enough treats here to please everyone. Choose from delicious snacks at Main Street Bakery (now featuring Starbucks coffee) and Plaza Ice Cream Parlor or tasty hot dogs and more at Casey's Corner. If you would like some casual sit-down dining, there is Plaza Restaurant or Tony's Town Square. And to enjoy a great all-you-can-eat buffet with your favorite characters from the 100-Acre Wood, choose the Crystal Palace. (Which just happens to be the very first character meal my family tried at WDW, shown here circa 2003!)

Main Street is the place to be for the best in entertainment and shows in Magic Kingdom. This is where you will see all of Disney's parades and shows running daily. Daytime you can see the Festival of Fantasy parade while nighttime features the Main Street Electrical Parade. Various times will also feature the Dream Along with Mickey show and the Move It! Shake It! Dance & Play It! Street Party. And, you can gather here nightly for the Wishes fireworks celebration. A recent upgrade to the hub area now provides more viewing areas for guest comfort.

Some Main Street U.S.A Fun Facts:
*Main Street was designed based on Walt's childhood memories of Marceline, MO
*The red walkways were Walt's idea of "rolling out the red carpet" for guests, but actually with much collaboration with the Kodak Company, it was determined that red would be the best color to highlight guest photos.
*If you are visiting Tony's Town Square restaurant, you will find a tribute to their two most famous patrons in the pavement to the left of the stairs.
*Notice the streetlamps on Main Street. The begin as gas lamps and progress to electric lamps as you get closer to the hub. You are symbolically moving through time.
*If you make a right at the end of Main Street, you can hear singing and dancing lessons coming from the second story windows.
*Look for a wall-mounted phone in the Market House and pick it up to hear a lively party line conversation.
*Patriotism flows with flags hanging on all the stores. But to avoid taking them down each night as required, only the flag on the main flagpole in Town Square is real.
