Three Must See 3-D Attractions!


We all know that Walt Disney World offers a wide variety of entertainment, from thrill rides and onstage performances, to 3-D attractions.  You will never be bored on Disney property!  While most 3-D movies at your hometown theaters can be impressive or leave you wanting more, Disney’s offerings of 3-D isn’t just a visual experience!

Narrowing it down to just three must see 3-D attractions is hard for me.  I’m always amazed at what Disney brings next and while 3-D has been around for a long time, there is always something new to make you jump out of your seat cheering for more.  So what are my personal three must see 3-D attractions?

3.   It’s Tough to be a Bug - Located in the Tree of Life in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, It’s Tough to be a Bug is full of spiders, beetles, butterflies and many other creepy-crawlies.  No, not the real ones!  Put on your Bug-Eye glasses and join Flick as he hosts the show.  The audience members are now “honorary bugs” and get treated to meeting some of Flick’s friends.  During this 8-minute show, sit back in your seats and relax while you will have some close encounters with hornets, stinkbugs and even Grasshopper from Disney Pixar’s movie A Bug’s Life.  Be prepared for the special effects that include feel and smell.  They may be surprising, but loads of fun!





2.  Toy Story Mania – Head over to Disney’s Hollywood Studios and down to Pixar Place to find this gem. Grab your 3-D glasses, board your 4-person ride vehicle and let the games begin!  Toy Story characters will host different games that are fun for the entire family!  Think your ride and games are done after that first scene?  Nope! You will then enjoy several more games by going around a track to various scenes.  From throwing pies and rings to bursting balloons and throwing eggs, keep racking up those points!  Can you make it to the day’s leader board?

1.  Mickey’s Philharmagic – Our last stop takes us to Fantasyland in Magic Kingdom.  Take a seat and put on your Opera glasses and be prepared to be entertained!  Donald Duck is told not to touch Mickey Mouse’s Sorcerer’s hat, but we all know that little guy doesn’t listen!  So, he is taken on a whirlwind trip as he is transported into some of the most classic Disney movie scenes!  He visits Ariel, Peter Pan, Aladdin and Simba just to name a few!  As he is entertained by Lumiere, you can smell the pie.  While visiting a scene in Fantasia, you are sprinkled with water.  The scene in Neverland and Agrabah make you feel like you are soaring through the skies as you stare at one of the largest seamless screens in the world!  These are the things that set this attraction apart from the others.  Disney classics, new graphics and the special effects that this show brings, have me not only putting it at the top of this list, but the top of my favorites list in general!
So, next time you visit the Mouse’s house, be sure to take part in each of these attractions.  I assure you, you will not be disappointed!
Is there a 3-D attraction that you cannot miss each Disney vacation?  What is your absolute favorite?

5 Ways To Get Psyched For Your Disney Trip!

Hey-Howdy-Hey, Disney Guys and Gals!      Is anyone familiar with Barney Stinson's "Get Psyched" Mix? Anyone? How I Met your Mother Fans? Ok, great! So you totally get where I'm going with this! If you have no idea what I am talking about, you can watch a clip  HERE!  Basically, the theory is that no matter what's going on in your life, you can get yourself psyched up and ready for something awesome to happen, all by listening to the right piece of music. Playing off of that theory, I feel that one of the very best things about a Disney trip is actually  preparing  for it, or getting psyched! You can have a whole bunch of crappy stuff happening in your life at the time, but if you have a Disney trip on the horizon... even if it's 564 days away, you have something to look forward to and enjoy preparing yourself for. In fact, many Disney fans, (myself included), pretty much get from one day to the next by preparing for upcoming trips. You may even book a ne

Mythos Restaurant at Universal's Islands of Adventure

Located on The Lost Continent of Universal's Islands of Adventure, Mythos is an award-winning, full-service restaurant that offers an otherworldly experience. If you've ever been to Universal's Islands of Adventure, you've undoubtedly walked by this restaurant with its towering rock formations, waterfalls and ancient figures carved into the side of the building. The restaurant has been calling to me for years and I was finally able to give it a try. When you enter the restaurant, it feels like you've entered a cavernous grotto from another world. There are oceanic and mythical touches throughout the indoor dining room and there's also outdoor seating with great views of the park.

Universal's Volcano Bay Private Cabana Review

On a recent training in Universal Orlando Resort, agents Maci, Ashley, Aubrey and Yaritza and I rented a private cabana for the day at Universal's Volcano Bay. There are multiple locations around the park along with the option to have an upper or lower level, all of which reflect in various pricing. Agent Ashley received an email the day before informing her of where to check-in the next morning. While we were personally escorted to the cabana shortly after check in, the line at the check in location is the same as those getting towels, meaning it was not short. As expressed by an additional guest checking into a different cabana, we would have greatly appreciated a separate line, since this caused our group about a half hour wait. We're all adults and made great use of our time getting some fun pictures before the park was filled with guests, but this is important to be aware of if you are traveling with children.  We had an upper level Cabana which came with a splendid view!
