Private parade & mountain madness
4.01.2007 7:55 AM \| Link	Here are some magical highlights of the last two days of my recent Walt Disney World adventure! At the Magic Kingdom, Melinda and I got to ride everything (in spite of Spring Break crowds), and we even had another lucky moment where a Tomorrowland Cast Member handed us some Space Mountain Fastpasses out of the blue, so we got to ride it twice (I definitely think it's scarier than the California version!). We also got to see the totally brand new Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor attraction, and we had an amazing spot for the Wishes fireworks show! We decided to go to the late Spectromagic parade (at 10:00 PM, after Wishes), and it was like having a private parade performance! The crowds for the late parade seemed about 80% less, so I definitely recommend it! At Animal Kingdom we enjoyed the entire park, including the new Finding Nemo musical (definitely Broadway quality), and especially the incredible, fantastic, amazing Expedition Everest! I knew this ride was going to be great, but it was even better than I expected! The transition into the snowy peaks is really cool, and the backwards sections of track inside the dark mountain are really exciting (it really feels like a reverse loop is coming, but it doesn't!). The huge animatronic Yeti at the end of the ride is definitely an Imagineering achievement - I can't believe something that big can move so smoothly! Enjoy the photos, and I'll have one more trip wrap-up next week. View photos: Magic Kingdom View photos: Animal Kingdom Labels: disney, trips
