Top 5 Animal Kingdom Attractions

It's time to talk about the last park-Animal Kingdom. This used to be my least-favorite park, but it's really growing on me. I've been spending more time here.

And I have not been to Pandora yet so neither of those attractions are on this list. But I do really love these five must do attractions.

1) Kilimanjaro Safaris



This is one of my favorite attractions in all of Disney World. It's different everytime since you're looking at live animals. If you get a good driver it's even better. A lot of people are all about the lions, but, for me, it's the elephants. And I love the song they play in that section.

2) Dinosaur


I'm not really sure I can explain why I love this attraction so much. I just always have fun on it. And I'm pretty sure I can quote the whole pre-show and actual rides.

3) Finding Nemo: The Musical



This show is beautiful and always gets me in the feels. The music, puppets, and performers-all of it- are just spectacular.

4) Flights of Wonder



I only did this on my last trip and it is definitely a must do now. I'm not even a crazy big bird fan, but it's amazing to see what they are able to accomplish. And the show is engaging and has humor.

5)  The Maharajah Jungle Trek



A lof of people like Pangani because they are gorilla fans. But I am all about the tigers. Whether you do just one or both of the trails I highly suggest checking them out. It gives you the opportunity to see so many different kins of animals.

Top 5 Epcot Attractions

Last week I talked about my five must do Magic Kingdom attractions. This week I want to talk about Epcot.

But Epcot is kind of hard. I like a lot of the attractions here, but I wouldn't say I love them. There's also a lot of changes going on so this list may change in the next few years.

I also haven't done the new Frozen or Soarin' attractions which iswhy they aren't on this list. But hopefully this October I will get to experience them both. 

So, here's my list in no particular order:

1) Test Track










I love Test Track. It's great to ride during the day and at night. The queue is a little boring, but I'm glad the old music is gone and I have fun making my car everytime.

2) Spaceship Earth



I am a fan of the Jeremy Irons narration, but Dame Judi Dench is good too. This is a nice relaxing ride that entertains me.

3) Living with the Land





I have no idea why, but I love this attraction. It's the best kind of "edutainment". And it always makes me want to start a garden when I get home.

4) IllumiNations




This may be weird, but the intro with the guy talking is my favorite part. I like the message and feeling of this show. And it isn't very hard to get a spot to see it.

5) Jourey into Imagination with Figment




I knew this isn't a perfect attraction and a lot of people have issues with it. But I LOVE Figment. He has a special place in my heart from my first trip in 1992. And even with it's flaws, I will always support the use of imagination.

So, those are my must do Epcot attractions. What are your's?

Top 5 Magic Kingdom Attractions

The Magic Kingdom is full of fun attractions. It's probably the hardest park to pick just 5 must-do attractions. But I still narrowed down the list the best I could.

These are the attractions I love doing multiple times on every trip. They are in no particular order. And this doesn't mean I don't love and enjoy other attractions.

1) Big Thunder Mountain Rail Road



OK this is probably my favorite attraction. I would be devastated if I couldn't do this attraction during a trip. And you have to ride it during the day and at night. 

2) Space Mountain

I used to be terrified by this and refused to ride it. But I've been hooked since I first road it. It does scare me especially if I'm in the front seat but only in the best possible way.

3) Haunted Mansion

Now this si a classic. Do you hear Stacy in your head everytime you say that word? I do. But it really is. And it's one I really enjoy. Now, the first half gives me the creeps especially when I'm alone in my doombuggy. But I still have fun and it takes me back to my old Disney Sing-Along VHS tape days.

4) Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover




The TTA is very cool in the online Disney community and my family has always been a fan. It's relaxing and you get great views of Tomorrowland and the castle. And this is another one you have to ride at night. It's so beautiful with everything lit up.

5) Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin



So, this may be a little unorthodox, but I always have fun. The queue leaves a little to be desired, but I could ride this over and over again.

What are your must do attractions and Magic Kingdom?
