Clockwise...or Counterclockwise?

"Here you leave today and enter the world of yesterday, tomorrow, and fantasy."

The first park to visit is, of course, Magic Kingdom! Magic Kingdom is probably the easiest park to navigate in my opinion, but also has a tons of things to explore so lets dive in!

First things first, as soon as you enter the park don't follow the crowd that goes to the left! Go to the right towards Tomorrowland! When looking at the map of MK you clearly see that the lands all surround the origin point of Cinderella's Castle. Follow the map counterclockwise! Also avoid all of the traffic going down Main St. and use the shops! All of the shos are connected so just walk straight through. Don't worry about stopping to look you'll want to save that for later! Carrying around bags along with you in the parks is a hassle!

I have traditionally gone to the left towards Adventureland, but have found that heading to Tomorrowland is much smarter when on a time crunch! Continue to follow in a clockwise manner! So start at Tomorrowland, then to Fantasyland, then to Frontierland, then to Libery Square, and to wrap it all up Adventureland!

Tomorrowland is just as it sounds, about tomorrow! There you'll find Buzz Lightyear and Monster's Inc. Laugh Floor! For those of you who want to avoid the sun definitely check out Buzz Lightyear and Laugh Floor! These rides have indoor waiting areas and air conditioning! Save these rides for when you absolutely need the cold air! 

Buzz Lightyear is a fun interactive game, where you are the space ranger defeating the Evil Emperor Zurg! In this ride you try to hit all of the targets and accumulate points! Fun fact: If you max out, which is 999,999 points, check out the desk in the gift shop when you get off and you'll receive a sticker!

Of course there is a ton more to see in Tomorrowland, but so this post isn't too long take a horse drawn carriage to Fantasyland!

Fantasyland has recently expanded in the past coupe years, and has plenty of things to see and do! Fantasyland is home to Ariel's Grotto, Seven Dwarf's Mine Train, and Dumbo the Flying Elephant! Fantasyland is where a girl's inner princess can come out! 

The Seven Dwarf's Mine Train is a fairly recent attraction added in with the expansion of Fantasyland! It is a roller coaster taking you underground into the mines of the 7 dwarves from Snow White! A bit of advice for this ride is...it doesn't matter what line you take! In Disney you are given a Fastpass, which allows you to jump the line! So if time is your issue, Mine Train is definitely a ride to FP if you can! But if you can't no worries! Disney has designed an interactive queue to for guests waiting to board! So if you have time, don't FP the line, enjoy the fun, interactive games and activities offered to guests who are waiting for a long time!

Moving on to Liberty Square, here is home to the mysterious Haunted Mansion! Home to 999 ghosts the Haunted Mansion is a must do attraction. The story behind the mansion is that the master of the house was murdered by his 7th wife; however, his first 6 wives were all died within a year of each other. What's even more interesting is that his 7th wife also had multiple husbands before him, and they all passed away suddenly. Be sure to pay attention to the portraits of the 7th wife, for she seems to have one string of pearls around her neck for each husband. MWHAHAHA! 

HEY HOWDY HEY! Welcome to the old West! Frontierland is home to some of the wildest folks around! Be sure to check out Splash Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain! After a long day Splash mountain is the bees knees if I do say so myself! The line may be long, so a FP would probably be the best thing if you want to cool off faster! Big Thunder Mountain is probably the bumpiest, but funnest, rollercoaster in Frontierland! Don't miss out on either of these attractions!

Finally, you're probably exhausted, but you can't give up yet! It's time to hop on a magic carpet and experience all that Adventureland has to offer! Here experience Pirates of the Caribbean, Aladdin's Magic Carpet Ride, and the mystical Tiki Room. Pirates is the perfect if  you want out of the heat, it is another air-conditioned waiting area! And for those who like a show the Tiki Room is a great place for a musical adventure!

I'm sorry that I couldn't hit everything there is to do at MK, but here are some highlights! I hope you found them useful!
