Walt Disney World
We arrived at Orlando Airport and boarded the Monotrain to the Walt Disney World Resort. The Resort stretches for 112 KM square, with hotel accommodation from 3 Star to 5 Star (in abundance) in and around the Resort. We disembarked from the Monotrain and were quickly transferred to our hotel in one of the many buses transporting people within the resort. Disney's Yacht & Beach Resorts offer New England quaintness from the 1870s! All the style and exclusivity of a real Yacht Club and everything from hard-wood floors to host and hostess attire evokes images of New England seashore hotels of the past century. Here you step back in time but forward in hospitality! Within walking distance of Epcot and a boat ride away from Disney-MGM Studios. We checked in and unpacked to begin our 5 day trip of Fun and happiness! With our Walt Disney World 5 day Hopper Pass we could venture to all the Walt Disney Parks, transportation between these were easy to navigate, we boarded the boat for a short ride to Disney-MGM Studios. Indiana Jones welcomed us with his Epic Stunt Spectacular show, from a Back-lot Studio Tour to the Hunchback of Notre Dame - a musical adventure, from Him Henson's Muppet vision in 3D to Beauty and the Beast, a live show to keep you entranced! Experience the Tower Of Terror - Twilight Zone, a ride not recommended for the tame at heart, enjoy the ultimate Star Wars Thrill ride and "Honey, I shrunk the kids" it is all there! Walt Disney World Resort also features The Magic Kingdom Park where small children will be delighted to meet their favourite Disney Characters. Mickey Mouse, Goofy and Donald Duck roam the Park spreading joy to children and adults alike. Enjoy Peter Pan's Flight or take in Mickey's Toontown Fair, enjoy a ride on the Walt Disney World Railroad or Space Mountain, the Alien Encounter or the Legend of the Lion King, everywhere you go you are entertained in this Magical world of fun! Magic Mountain sends you down a ravine at 40 miles per hour, plus a 5 story plunge, and splash comes the water! Enjoy a leisurely cruise on Lady Liberty or take a walk around the Indian Camp where Pochantas sits weaving her mat! The best of all was Epcot, an ever-changing world of Discovery - a holiday experience to amaze, entertain and inspire you. Epcot is about the future and the achievements that make it possible. Let your imagination run wild as you enjoy the 3D adventure of "Honey I shrunk the Audience". Jump into the driver's seat to test the transportation of the future. Take in the ever-changing wonder of Innovations! It's family-friendly all the way! Cap off your Epcot Evenings with the Spectacular IllumiNations - a fire work display featuring the Nations of the World in all its splendour! Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach - both water parks give you the opportunity to enjoy the sunshine while taking in some of the best water rides in the world! The Blizzard Beach Legend tells of a Meteorological phenomenon of the strangest order, a freak winter storm developed over the western end of Walt Disney World and covered the area with a thick blanket of snow, before you could enjoy your "hot cocoa" plans were underway for Florida's first ski resort. From Ski lifts to toboggan runs were laid down and an entire resort area blossomed around the mountain of snow. This is the home of the tallest and fastest water slide in the world. The Ski resort became known as Blizzard Beach, the most slushy, slippery, exhilarating water park anywhere! Downtown Disney - The Heart of a City on a corner of Disney's World. The Downtown Disney area is an all-day, all-night big city playground featuring the best fun from the hottest spots on the planet. Downtown Disney Pleasure Island - Visit an Island filled shore-to-shore with spectacular clubs, dazzling live stage shows and an Island-wide New Year's Eve party every night! The service, the people, the entertainment at Walt Disney World Florida is top class and we left there yearning for more! An experience of a lifetime, this destination is highly recommended for loads of family fun (adults and children alike).
