We are a Disney Family. We have been there several times that I lost count. It helps that we used to live in South Florida which is only a few hours away from Orlando and our ILs have timeshare there also a bonus.So here are my Thursday Thirteen for this week. The rides we love in Disney World.
1) Pirates of the Caribbean - Ok. I admitted I love it because last time we went we had no wait time at all. It was a nice ride and we love the movie. I think even if we have to wait in line we would enjoy looking at all the deco that they have in there.
2) Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin - This is an interactive ride that is fun for the whole family. Also the fact that Mr. Rojo loves game also helps. But I think I beat him last time we rode it. :)
3) It's a Small World - Good ride to do when you need a break from a hot day. But be ware that the song might stay in your head for the rest of the day..
4) Tomorrowland Transit Authority - It's an old ride that doesn't get much attention. But I think that's why we like it. There is no long ride and you get to enjoy the view even a peek at the Space Mountain.
5) The Barnstormer @ Goofy's Wiseacre Farm - Well, this is more of Mr. Z's favorite than mine. It's a little kid version of the roller coaster. The ride gives you a taste of real roller coaster but can they make it a little bit longer? I think the ride lasts about 15 seconds.
6) Walt Disney World Railroad - Having an Train-obessed son, this is a must on our itinerary. It's a good way to get from point A to point B and save your energy from walking and bumming to other millions guests in the park.
7) Kilimanjaro Safaris - Ok.. It's not Africa but I guess for our family this might be as close as we will get in the mean time. We haven't been there for a while so I'm looking forward to going back there our next trip (whenever that might be).
8) It's Tough to be a Bug - A fun 3-D show that we enjoy. I also won't mind the long line to get to the show as we had fun trying to spot the animals craving on the big Tree.
9) Festival of The Lion King - I love this show. Mr. Rojo didn't get to see the whole show so we need a repeat just for him. :)
10) The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror - This one is the ride before kids. I love it but for now we probably need to put it on the list after kids are bigger.
11) Mission: SPACE - Another fun experience that I love. I know that I will never join NASA or have enough money to pay my way to the Space Station. So for $70 I will get just a little tiny bit of experience. I will take it!
12) Epcot Pavillions - It's not the same as going to each country yourself. But it's just a good way to browse and eat around the world. :)
13) Kali River Rapids - A fun ride that is not too intimidating as other rapid river from other parks (like the one in Island of Adventure - Love that one). But it's good enough to enjoy a few thrill in the Animal Kingdom.
Here it's my list for this Thursday. There are more rides that I would love to do but those are new and I have never tried it yet. So I'm sure I will have more to my list later on!

Pirates has been my favorite since I was little. I can't wait to take my kids.
I had to laugh---I went on Pirates and Small World when I first visited WDW in 1974. Good to know they're still going.
At my age, I like Epcot best---by which I mean, the restaurants!
13 Hearts
oh i so need to go to Disneyland. it's been a whole YEAR and i am now very itchy for it!!
GREAT T13...mine is up come have a look-see!
I haven't been on Pirates since the movie came out...did they change it any? I didn't really like it before.
Buzz Lightyear is a lot of fun...and not just for kids!
In my youth, I'd have loved them. Nowadays? I prefer terra firma.
I live just over an hour away from Disney World and I have never been :(
This sounds like so much fun! I've been to Disneyland about a gazillion times, but never Disney World.
