It’s a fun ride, and I feel like it connects with the movies. I like the drop and how Captain Jack Sparrow is seeing what the bad guys are doing.
2. Jungle Cruise
It looks like a tour that has animals and it’s fun because it is a slow-going boat ride, and you are able to see animals even though they are fake and also if you have a good skipper, it will make the ride better.
3. The Enchanted Tiki Room
I like how there are these birds that sing and do stuff, and, on the sides, there is a volcano. At the end of the show, it erupts.
4. Dole Whips from Aloha Isle
They are really good, and, in my opinion, I really liked the pineapple one, it was delicious. So, after you do the Tiki Room, you can get a nice Dole Whip.
5. Jungle Navigation Co. LTE Skipper Canteen
I liked the food from Skipper Canteen and the meal that I got was really good.
Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is a ride located in Hollywood Studios that opened on March 4, 2020.
In August, I rode this ride for the very first time and I am going to be telling you all about it.
Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is located in the Chinese Theater. The Chinese Theater is really pretty, so be sure to take pictures and look at all the different posters on the walls.
Before you start the ride, you watch a Mickey Short called Perfect Picnic. Goofy pops out off the screen and invites you to join him on a train trip. You spend the entire ride with Goofy on his train.
This ride also has A LOT of Hidden Mickeys, so be sure to keep on the look out!
Can you see the Hidden Mickey?
I really enjoyed this ride, but my only complaint is that everything on this ride went by so fast that I was struggling to keep up.
The Hall of Presidents is a show located in Liberty Square where you learn more about the presidents of The United States Of America. (Another reason why you should see it is because it is indoors and there is air conditioning!)
It was no surprise that The Hall of Presidents was closed because every four-eight years a new animatronic is added to this show when a new president is elected.
Now, you can see President Biden along side all the other presidents of The United States of America.
You should definitely go to The Hall of Presidents to see President Biden!
Fireworks are returning, masks are optional if you are fully vaccinated, and some pre-shows are coming back. One of the pre-shows that is now back in the parks is The Haunted Mansion pre-show!
The Haunted Mansion pre-show has been closed since the beginning of the pandemic. Now, you get to go back into the creepy room with the four paintings that stretch.
In Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, you will be shrunken down to the size of Chef Remy as you race through Gusteau’s restaurant. This ride will also have no height requirement so everyone in your family will be able to do this ride!
La Crêperie de Paris will also open on October 1, 2021 in the France pavilion. This restaurant will have both table and quick service options. Quick service means that you can order crepes on the go. La Crêperie de Paris will have both sweet and savory crepes.

A new mask rule was put in place a couple of weeks ago. Before, you could take off your mask once you were seated at a dining location. Now, you can only take your mask off if you are actively eating or drinking. This new rule applies to everyone 2 years old and up.
I can’t wait for Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure and La Crêperie de Paris to open!

Due to the corona virus pandemic Festival of the Lion King is currently closed, but it’s coming back!
Photo belongs to the Walt Disney World Company.
In the summer, Festival Of The Lion King will return to Animal Kingdom. The show will have physical distancing guidelines. The seating will be different from before and the choreography will also be different for physical distancing reasons.
I am so excited that Festival Of The Lion King is coming back! My family and I love this show and we see it every time we go to Disney World.
Festival Of The Lion King is an awesome show in Animal Kingdom!
Simba!
Update: Due to the corona virus pandemic, Festival Of The Lion King now has physical distancing guidelines.
Tip: Festival Of The Lion King has VERY long lines to get into the show. You want to make sure you know the time of when the show starts and try to get in line early so you don’t wait for a long time.
In Festival Of The Lion King, you sit in a large room with other people and watch a live show celebrating Simba. Each section of seats is separated into sections. You will either sit in the elephant, warthog, giraffe, or lion sections. Your job is to make noises like either an elephant, warthog, giraffe, or lion. No one ever knows what sound a warthog or a giraffe makes.
You will hear songs from The Lion King Movie sung live, crazy trampoline acrobatics, and you will even see FIRE! (Don’t worry, nothing will catch on fire.)
If you like this video you can go to my DisneywithIzzy YouTube channel to watch more videos! Don’t forget to subscribe!
Every year we go to Disney World (except we couldn’t go this year because of the pandemic), and my family and I always see this show. We never get tired of it. Festival Of The Lion King is a very upbeat and happy show that puts you in a good mood.
Another great thing about this show is that because it is indoors it has AIR CONDITIONING and if you are going to Disney World in the summer, you are going to be so happy to cool off during the show.
At the end of last year, The Muppets Present Great Moments of History show was closed. The Muppets came back earlier this year for President’s Day Weekend and they are now back again for Christmas!
The Muppets Present Great Moments of History was a show in Liberty Square where the Muppets would sing songs and sign The Declaration of Independence.
This time, instead of singing songs about Independence, the Muppets are singing “Jingle Bell Rock”. Gonzo and his chickens are now shaking jingle bells. The paneling below The Muppets is red, green, and decorated with candy canes and Christmas trees. I think this is a great idea to bring back the Muppets because they were such an important part of Liberty Square.
Be sure to see the Muppets while they are in Liberty Square and take a lot of pictures!
Fantasyland is in Magic Kingdom and is home to one of my favorite restaurants in Disney World! Fantasyland also has two different areas located inside, one is called Storybook Circus and the other one is called the Enchanted Forest.
Rides: The rides located in Storybook Circus are The Barnstormer and Dumbo The Flying Elephant.
The Barnstormer is a roller coaster made for kids because the drop isn’t that high. I really like this ride though my only complaint is that this ride is really short. (Less than a minute!) Dumbo The Flying Elephant is a fun ride where you get to ride Dumbo high in the sky and you get a great view of Magic Kingdom!
The ride in the Enchanted Forest is Under the Sea: Journey of the Little Mermaid. This ride tells you the story of the Little Mermaid.
The other rides in Fantasyland are It’s A Small World, Mad Tea Party, Peter Pan’s Flight, Prince Charming Regal Carousel, Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, and Winnie the Pooh.
On “It’s A Small World” you ride in a boat and dolls all around you sing “It’s A Small World”. The coolest part is that all the dolls are from around the world and sing in their language. Warning: This song WILL get stuck in your head!
Mad Tea Party is a ride where you sit in a large teacup and spin around and around. I have never done this ride because I don’t want to get sick.
On Peter Pan’s Flight you get to fly in the sky and fly past mermaids, London, and an epic battle between Peter Pan and Captain Hook.
Prince Charming Regal Carousel is a Cinderella themed carousel. Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is a roller coaster and it is really fun!
The Many Adventures Of Winnie The Pooh is a ride where you meet everyone from the Hundred Acre Woods and learn the wonderful thing about Tigger.
Entertainment: Enchanted Tales With Belle is in the Enchanted Forest and you can take part in the show! You can play the characters from the movie Beauty and the Beast. Mickey’s PhilharMagic is a show where Donald Duck steals Mickey Mouse’s hat and winds up in other Disney movies!
Food: Cinderella’s Royal Table is a restaurant located inside Cinderella’s castle. While you eat, you meet Disney princesses.
Be Our Guest is one of my favorite restaurants in Disney World! Located in the Enchanted Forest, you get to eat inside Beauty and the Beast’s castle and the food is really good! (You can read my review of Be Our Guest here!)
The ballroom in Beauty and the Beast’s castle.
Gaston’s Tavern in the Enchanted Forest serves Warm Cinnamon Rolls, Roasted Pork Shank, Chocolate Croissants, and many other snacks! The inside of Gaston’s Tavern is created to look just like the tavern in the movie.
Pinocchio Village Haus has seating with a view of “It’s A Small World” and through out the restaurant there are murals from Pinocchio.
Inside of Pinocchio Village Haus.
Storybook Treats serves ice cream, milkshakes, and sundaes. Cheshire Cafe also serves snacks like the Cheshire Cat Tail. The Friar’s Nook serves macaroni and cheese and hot dogs.
Shopping: Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique is a shop where if you are a girl between the ages of 3 and 12 you can dress up as your favorite princess. Boys can be dressed up as knights. Big Top Souvenirs is where you will find Storybook Circus merchandise. I have been inside this store and it is huge!
Bonjour! Village Gifts in the Enchanted Forest sells Beauty and the Beast merchandise. Fantasy Faire is located next to Mickeys PhilharMagic and they have a big selection of Minnie Ears. Hundred Acre Woods sells Winnie The Pooh merchandise. Sir Mickey’s sells hats and snow globes. Tinker Bell’s Treasures sells princess merchandise.
Now you know about what rides, entertainment, food, and shopping are in Fantasyland!
