Disney-Florida

Last week we left the cold and snow behind and found the sun and warm weather in Florida. We got to Orlando Sunday afternoon and checked into our hotel room and went to the bar to watch the Wisconsin Packers beat the Pittsburgh Stealer's and won a few prizes in the draw.
During the week we went to all Disney parks, Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Epcot and Hollywood studios.
Magic Kingdom: Magic Kingdom theme park, one of 4 Theme Parks in Walt Disney World Resort, captures the enchantment of fairy tales with exciting entertainment, classic attractions, backstage tours and beloved Disney Characters.

Designed like a wheel with the hub in front of Cinderella Castle, pathways spoke out across the 107 acres of Magic Kingdom theme park and lead to these 7 whimsical lands:

• Main Street, U.S.A. area
• Adventureland area
• Frontierland area
• Liberty Square
• Fantasyland; area
• Mickey's Toontown Fair area 
• Tomorrowland area

I really enjoyed this theme park although I found it rather annoying to talk to the characters when they talked to us like 5 year olds, asking us if we came on our magic horses from a far away land and where our princes were.. was rather funny and good they can keep in character but annoying. Also the rides there were amazing and crazy how people think of things like that. in a good way.

Epcot:Beyond Future World, if entering from the main gate at Epcot theme park, is the World Showcase area. World Showcase is a collective of Pavilions that wrap around the World Showcase Lagoon. Inside the Pavilions, find shops, attractions and restaurants that represent the culture and cuisine of these 11 countries:

• Mexico
• Norway
• China
• Germany
• Italy
• United States
• Japan
• Morocco
• France
• United Kingdom
• Canada

Animal Kingdom:  One of my favorites.Disney's Animal Kingdom theme park, one of 4 Theme Parks at Walt Disney World Resort, is full of attractions, adventures and entertainment that reflect Walt Disney's dedication to nature and conservation, and in doing so, the Park leads the way in animal care, education and research.

Home to more than 1,700 animals from 250 species and sprawling across 500 acres of lush landscape, Disney's Animal Kingdom theme park is the largest animal-themed park in the world!

Disney's Animal Kingdom theme park is divided into 7 areas:

• Oasis
• Discovery Island® area
• Camp Minnie-Mickey
• Africa
• Rafiki's Planet Watch® area
• Asia
• Dinoland, U.S.A.® area

Within each area, encounter real and fantastic animals. Get close enough to pet some of them, or ask for their autograph! Exciting attractions await, as does live and wild entertainment—like Broadway-style musical shows and parades that invite you to be part of the excitement.

Hollywood Studios:Disney's Hollywood Studios theme park, one of 4 Theme Parks in Walt Disney World Resort, offers behind-the-scenes glimpses of Hollywood-style action with live shows, thrilling attractions, backstage tours and special events that only happen in this Disney Park dedicated to entertainment.

The glitz and glamour of the Hollywood Heydays from the 1930s and 1940s are captured by the neon, chrome, art deco and modern architecture throughout Disney's Hollywood Studios theme park. The streets and sections of the 4 areas of the Park blend together like a large, bustling movie set.

Step into the action with new attractions—like the American Idol Experience—that might put you center stage and under the spotlight. Feel like a star, or come face-to-face with one! Collect autographs and pose for photos at special events or at Character greeting locations.

Live out your desire for stardom by participating in parades, being part of a rock 'n' roll fantasy and experiencing spectacular attractions based on blockbuster movies and top TV shows—all at Disney's Hollywood Studios theme park where movie magic comes to life!
