Walt Disney World Spaceship earth ride at Epcot

The most eye catching sight at Walt Disney World’s Epcot theme park is the Spaceship Earth ride. This huge round ball is made with 11,324 individual triangles that form the outside!

Inside this big round ball is the Spaceship Earth ride. Here’s my Epcot’s Spaceship Earth ride review so you can find out what it’s about and if you think you want to go on it. :)

Disney World’s Splash Mountain ride at Magic Kingdom review

Disney's splash mountain ride review

It’s time for another Disney ride review! This time it’s a review of Disney’s Splash Mountain.

Splash Mountain is a popular ride that’s located in Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom, in Frontierland. The attraction is based on the characters of Uncle Remus from the Disney movie Song of the South.

The Uncle Remus stories were created by Joel Chandler Harris, a Georgia native, and the scenery of the ride resembles the Georgia countryside. This includes the muddy river, the red clay, and the swampy area.

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.
