Happily Ever After Fireworks Dessert Party

travelmagicstg2023-10-06T22:11:40-04:00November 30, 2017|Magic Kingdom|0 Comments

I love fireworks! Who doesn’t? The fireworks displays at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom are legendary. They just keep getting better and better as technology improves. The emotions those displays invoke are powerful and create lasting family memories. That’s part of why we all love going to Walt Disney World over and over again. The current regular season fireworks display is called Happily Ever After. It is hands down one of the absolute best fireworks displays I’ve ever witnessed. It is only rivaled by my very first fireworks display at Disneyland and by the 60th Anniversary of Disneyland fireworks display. [...]

“There’s a great big beautiful tomorrow, shining at the end of every day.” These words of hope and optimism open the longest running stage show in the history of American theater – Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress. Located in Tomorrowland in the Magic Kingdom this show is said to be Mr. Disney’s personal favorite imagineering project. Carousel of Progress was originally featured at the 1964 World’s Fair in New York. It was so popular that it was moved to Disneyland where it played from 1967 to 1973. In 1975 the show was moved to Walt Disney World where it remains [...]

Liberty Tree Tavern Lunch

travelmagicstg2023-10-06T22:10:08-04:00November 16, 2017|Magic Kingdom|0 Comments

Tucked away in beautiful Liberty Square is a quaint little restaurant called Liberty Tree Tavern. Open for lunch and dinner in the Magic Kingdom, it’s a great spot to cool off, rest your feet, and fill your belly. The décor is very historical and has a colonial vibe, and the cast members wear adorable costumes. Each “room” has a name, and on this trip we were seated in the Ben Franklin room at my favorite table in the restaurant, a cute little table for two at the window. In the past when we have eaten here, the whole menu has [...]

Grim Grinning Ghosts at the Haunted Mansion at Walt Disney World

travelmagicstg2023-10-05T17:41:48-04:00September 19, 2017|Magic Kingdom|0 Comments

Boo! With Halloween right around the corner I thought this would be a good time to pop in to the Haunted Mansion for a tour. Don’t worry – while you may find some spooks here everything is on the silly side so nothing out of any horror movies. Tucked in a quiet corner of Liberty Square, in the back of the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World, is a stately manor with a rather spooky feel. Come visit Disney’s Haunted Mansion, home to 999 Happy Haunts (there’s room for one more ~ any volunteers?). The outside of the mansion is [...]
