The seven dwarfs mine train ride coming to fantasyland at Disney World!

The seven dwarfs mine train new ride at Fantasyland at Disney!

As any real fan of Walt Disney World knows, they are in the middle of a big expansion over at the Magic Kingdom. Fantasyland, the part located at the back of Cinderellas castle, will be getting a full makeover.

The plans have been changed a few times already. One new ride they seem to have agreed to keep is one called the seven dwarfs mine train ride! It will be an indoor mild roller coaster that goes through the seven dwarfs diamond mine from Snow White and the seven dwarfs.

It will be set to music from the classic movie Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. You can see it in the picture above in the top right side. I’m sure they would do a great job with the theme.

Walt Disney World Space Mountain ride review

January 10, 2011 by

Disney space mountain at the Magic Kingdom!

Space Mountain is one of the most well known attractions located in the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World. This popular ride is a not a typical roller coaster, as it features spatial-effects lighting, windows that appear to look out into the universe and thrills from beginning to end.

The space mountain ride at Disney’s Magic Kingdom had a total refurbishing not too long ago. The improvements make it even more fun to ride.

One great improvement is that there are two tracks side by side, and you blast off at the same time on identical configured tracks in the dark.

Disney ride height requirements, Disney rides list

January 8, 2011 by

Magic Kingdom rides and attractionsMagic Kingdom rides and attractions

I wanted to start the new year with lots of new content in here. One thing people want to know is all the Disney ride height requirements and looking at a Disney rides list.

It’s very frustrating when you tell your kid that he/she will get to go on a Disney ride, only to find out they don’t meet the rides minimum ride height requirements. Or you have several kids and one is tall enough but not the other.

Also Disney has so many rides in each theme park, you want a full list of Disney rides so you can see just what is there and make plans around them. Did you know the Magic Kingdom has over 35 rides and attractions!

January 6, 2011 by

Citywalk new years eve party!

Now that new years eve is over, I just have to ask something. I made an article a few months ago about Universal Studios CityWalk New Years Eve party. I got a ton of traffic and comments about it.

So much so, that I REALLY want to know how the people that went liked it! No I did not go, those types of crowded parties are just not my thing. But I heard it was a great success.

So if you went to the CityWalk New Years Eve party, leave a comment here and let me know how it went. Was it great? Was it only so-so, or did it really turn you off and you will not be going this year?

Villas at Disney's wilderness lodge resort hotel

If you want to stay at one of Disney’s luxury resorts and stay in style, consider getting one of the villas at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge resort. This is a fantastic Disney Resort.

The Villas at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge is located near Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World. This Disney World Resort will transport you back to the time of the great American West and the time of the Golden age of railroad travel.

Disney sure did a great job in making you feel like you are in a lodge somewhere else other than Florida. There is even a little boat dock where you can take a small antique boat to Fort Wilderness Campground or the Magic Kingdom.
