"It's a small world "-is a brilliant and unique show! You sail along the banks with dancing and playing the musical instruments dolls from all over the world! Just fantastic!
" Peter Pan's Flight" is a fun for kids too,you sail up above the London and familiar scenes from the movie of your childhood! I don't know the person who didn't dream or try to fly when one was a child!
"Mickey's PhilharMagic" -3-D movie theatre. We saw the show twice and my daughter didn't mind to see it dozen times,fortunately Disney has a lot of things to see,so we didn't stick in movie for the whole trip! The movie screen there stretches 25 feet tall by 100 feet wide,makining it one of the largest seamless screens in the world.So sit whenever you like,the view's great all around!
"Cinderella's Golden carrousel"-old style merry-go-round,with a Sword of the stone replica in front.This one( I mean the replica) I liked best since it's my favorite Disney movie!

The Hall of presedent show is very interesting show too,but not for 6 y.o girl. Though she said she had seen most of them on money!
The Haunted Mansion is more scary for kids like my child,than for anyone else.My child dosn't like scary stories,ghosts.Neither do I. But for one who dreams to face 999 grim grinning ghosts it's a spooky good time! Closing on you,moving walls,dancing ghosts are ,no doubt, impressive!

The Enchanted Tiki Room Under New Management was a puppet show,that was bright and funny! We met all our favorite birds from Disney movies- from "Aladdin", "George of the jungle" ,"Little mermaid" and so on. I like it as all the shows at Disney!
Swiss family Treehouse. It is a huge (for the tree house) house and it's so real as if you just missed The Robinsons and they are going to be back soon!

Goofy is just one of those silly characters you love to meet! He's loveable, friendly and a big....goof!
Goofy first appeared in the cartoon called "Mickey's Revue" from 1936. He was featured as part of the crowd but his distinctive laugh caught the attention of the audience. There on, his laugh brought him the recognition he deserved...

Pirates of the Caribbean was our all time favorite ride at Disney World. My husband and I loved this ride, our children preferred this when they were young and our grandson does, too.
The ride takes you by water to a hidden cove where a life size ship blasts its cannons and you see what a pirate's life is really like. Arrrgh!

What is so great about this place is that considering we went it the height of the summer (August) 2004 when we were walking arounf Seaworld, Disneyland it was like empty, because this place is so vast you really cannot belive it.

Who can come to Orlando and NOT see the Magic Kingdom!? Just as much fun for adults as it is for children. My sister and I could have ridden the "It's a Small World" ride a million times. Tons of fast roller coaster-type rides as well, but be careful, some are extremely fast & may not be suitalble for all health conditions, seniors and young kids.

I stopped in here one afternoon to watch the Dolphins play while a friend napped at the hotel. It looked like the football headquarters for those who lost the majority vote on the family's vacation. The Disney Sports Complex was primarily designed for those who can't get away from their favorite sports teams. The complex has a great sports bar which serves standard and reasonably priced sports bar food and has a plethora of televisions broadcasting a variety of games.

Where to start.... You can very honestly spend a whole day at only one of the parks so if you have a limited amount to spend pick one and just buy a pass for that park. That said, I feel the best value if you can afford it is to buy multipark passes for 3 or 4 days and then spend the whole week. I will try to let you know a bit about each park.
We didn't stay at a park resort. We stayed an amazing 5 star resort very near Disney that I highly recommend but all of the Disney resorts are very nice.

Orlando gets a bad rap, but it is actually a very cool town if you look beyond the glitz. If you stick to Theme Parks, you are missing the true Orlando. The city itself has a very 'young at heart'...
