I have only been to Animal Kingdom a handful of times. My family and I really enjoy everything AK has to offer! We love Expedition Everest, Kali River Rapids (even though each time I get completely drenched), the Lion King Show, A Bug’s Life attraction, and many other things. What we love most is the Kilimanjaro Safari! Read more
Fantasmic! is one of my favorite night time fireworks shows at Walt Disney World. This show is located at the end of Sunset Blvd. in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. The 6,900 seat amphitheater is made of metal benches and has two shows a night on select evenings. Be warned that sitting near the front could get you wet. There are fireworks, water effects, live characters, cannon explosions and balls of fire. The water effects show scenes from the movie Fantasia on large water curtains. Characters display scenes from popular Disney movies, like Pocahontas, and show the battle of good vs. evil. Read more
I’m not sure about your household but I have a four year old little boy that is completely obsessed with Toy Story! Lucas plays in his room with figurines, a farm, the Toy Story Landfill, and many other things just like you see Andy playing on the movie. So it was no surprise that he wanted to spend his birthday at Hollywood Studios last year. We had pictures taken with Buzz & Woody and rode Toy Story Mania…one time in a span of 13-15 hours at the park. Yes…one time only. Read more
We spent the last week in Disney World for our family vacation. This year was more special than ever before because we had nana and papaw traveling with us. We tried new places to eat, new attractions, and visited a couple new resorts. One of the new attractions Ethan and I tried was Mission Space in Future World at Epcot. It was amazing and intense!

Editor’s Note: Please welcome Abbie to The Affordable Mouse team of writers. Abbie will be sharing her favorite “Terrific Tuesdays” for us several times each month and we are looking forward to her thoughts on the best rides and attractions at Walt Disney World! 🙂
Thank you for welcoming me to The Affordable Mouse, I’m so excited to be writing for Terrific Tuesday’s! I wasn’t sure what to do for my first entry but my son, Ethan, who is twelve, insisted on me writing about the Hollywood Tower of Terror. I remember going on this ride for the first time when I was at Disney’s MGM Studios (now Hollywood Studio’s) when I was 15 years old in 1995. It quickly passed up Space Mountain and became my favorite ride. Read more
