Wordless Wednesday: Main Street Trolley

Nancy Disney Fun, What to Do at Disney World, Wordless Wednesday , , , , 0 Comment

Most people when arriving at Magic Kingdom, stop to take pictures of the castle and then start walking to their first destination. But why not take a few minutes and take the trolley up Main Street instead? While they usually run mostly in the morning (before the park gets too crowded), the horse-drawn Trolley is a super fun way to experience Main Street the way Walt Disney did in his home town….and feel like a bit of a celebrity while doing it. Be sure to wave to everyone as you go by! 🙂 Read more

I started something years ago and after several years between, was able to continue last year – taking grandchildren on a trip to Walt Disney World. While it wasn’t a surprise for the older 12 year old, it was for the 4 year old! She honestly wasn’t sure about it!

It gets hot and busy but that’s the perfect time to get a cool snack, or a cold drink and find a little shade to people watch from. When we plan our Disney vacations, advanced dining reservations are a must, especially when food allergies are involved. We usually make reservations for the bigger meals, either breakfast or dinner.   That doesn’t mean that we don’t get hungry during the day though! You don’t need reservations to be able to eat at the park: from the quick service spots to the vendor carts there are plenty of allergy friendly options. Read more
