Posted in DISNEY DINING, DISNEY'S MAGIC KINGDOM with tags DISNEY'S PLAZA RESTAURANT on August 31, 2011 by disneychroniclesReally I never even knew this restaurant was here! LOL We decided last minute to go to Magic Kingdom and it was one of the 2 restaurants that had the time available that worked with our schedule.
We had advance dining reservations and you do need them. We were seated fairly quickly, however, once in the restaurant everything seemed to move at a slower pace. This restaurant sits on the right at the end of Main Street USA when you’re facing the castle. They don’t have a large menu, but good choices. Great kids menu too. I had the Tuna Salad sandwich and my husband had the grilled chicken sandwich with fries, both were good but basic. Nothing that was a must have but a good option while in the park. You also have a great view of the castle from almost any seat! Price wise not bad either so I would recommend it!
It’s a Small World!
Posted in DISNEY ATTRACTIONS, DISNEY'S MAGIC KINGDOM on August 13, 2011 by disneychroniclesThis for me at least is one of those “classic” rides! It will never go out of style. It’s one of those rides that I remember going on as a child. I recently was able to remember that memory through my youngest sons eyes. He was in a trance and amazed. I loved it!
The ride features over 300 brightly costumed audio-animatronic dolls in the style of children of the world, frolicking in a spirit of international unity, and singing the attraction’s title song, which has a theme of global peace.
It’s A Small World traces its origins to the 1964-65 New York World’s Fair. The attraction was built for the Pepsi-Cola Company’s pavilion by WED Enterprises (which later became Walt Disney Imagineering), as a salute to the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF). Artist and Imagineer Mary Blair, famous for her work on many Disney films and attractions, assisted with the design. Song writing brothers Richard M. and Robert B. Sherman wrote the famous theme song.
The fair closed in 1965, and the attraction was moved to Disneyland, where it continues to entertain today. When Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom opened in October, 1971, it was given its own version.
