It's a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow..............." If you are singing along at this point, you are familiar with my favorite classic attraction at Walt Disney World. While some may walk by this classic attraction, this is a "MUST DO" on every visit to the Magic Kingdom for my family. Walt Disney’s Carousel of Progress was personally created by Walt Disney for the 1964-65 New York World's Fair. In 1975, the attraction moved to its current location in Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom. This nostalgic attraction holds a special place in many people's hearts because it is one of the only attractions at Walt Disney World to have been touched by Walt Disney himself. The Carousel of Progress exemplifies Walt's love of history and progress. This attraction highlights the industrial advances over the past century and how they have changed everyday living for the American family. While this show does not typically […]

My family and I recently tried the Polite Pig for the first time, and I guarantee it will not be our last!! We were a party of 9 and I wanted to try one of everything, but we did have to leave a few items to try for the next visit! We placed our order at the counter and then found a seat and a server brought the order to us. They were then incredibly helpful and made suggestions of their available sauces and they were right! As you enter the restaurant you are met with an amazing smell of smoked meats and spices! It was difficult to choose from the expansive menu. We did order a variety of entrees and sides. You can even make a meal out of the sides!!! You have the option of choosing three sides for $15! They are plentiful and delicious. We all happily […]
