<\/a>However this quick jaunt got me thinking. There are some attractions that you should make sure to visit every so often.\u00a0 Some of these are lesser known and don’t necessarily have universal appeal. They do have merit and heart and shouldn’t be missed trip after trip.\u00a0 These are the attractions you are probably missing at the Magic Kingdom.<\/p>\n
The first attraction, of course, \u00a0the one I’d previously mentioned.\u00a0 The Swiss Family Treehouse is a great “little” attraction with amazingly detailed sets themed after the movie Swiss Family Robinson<\/em>.\u00a0 In addition, it has incredible views from the top.\u00a0 Do keep in mind that it is a walking tour and there are quite a few stairs. Since it’s shaded in places it’s a great attraction to hit in the middle of the day when crowds are high.<\/p>\n The Country Bear Jamboree is plain, simple and an all around fun attraction. \u00a0Some think it’s a bit dated but it’s got just enough kitsch to make it a must do.\u00a0 Join audio-animatronic bears Henry, Liverlips, Big Al, Wendell, Trixie, and others as they sing country songs that harken back to days of yore. \u00a0One reason that many don’t like the show is that some songs are a little “suspect” in this day and age but it’s all done tongue-in-cheek and people shouldn’t be offended by it’s (bear) nature. \u00a0Well folks, thanks for bearing with this one to the bear end and bear-el around to see them again on your next visit to the park. (Editor’s Note from \u00a0Chris: Oh, Rikki…I’ll never forgive you for this one! LOL)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you head over to Frontierland you’ll find another commonly missed attraction; \u00a0Tom Sawyer Island.\u00a0 I think this one is skipped because you have to take a raft over to the island. \u00a0Once you do, though, the area is chock full of places to explore and run wild.\u00a0 It is great for families with kids because everyone can explore at great lengths.<\/p>\n Liberty Square Riverboat is one that I just recently crossed off my bucket list. It is one of the few attractions in the Magic Kingdom I had always missed because of timing (it’s only run during daylight hours) and due to the length (it clocks in at around 25 minutes). \u00a0This riverboat ride takes you along the Rivers of America and has views of Frontierland and Liberty Square you won’t see anywhere else.\u00a0 It’s simply fabulous.\u00a0 My suggestion is to take the last voyage at sunset.\u00a0 The view is even more incredible.\u00a0 Crowds are always minimal here, so if see you the boat pulling up, get in line.<\/p>\n The Hall of Presidents is another one of those audio-animatronic shows that everyone’s heard of and will, more than likely, see at least once. \u00a0If you haven’t seen it lately, you are missing out.\u00a0 The show has been redone to include a very moving film as well as speeches from George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.\u00a0 (The film is narrated by the great Morgan Freeman … who seems to narrate everything now.)\u00a0 You will automatically feel a touch of patriotism during the roll call.\u00a0 This is the closest we’ll ever get to “seeing” all of the presidents in our lifetime.\u00a0 Sure, they aren’t actually real but it still has a ton of power behind it!<\/p>\n The Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover is well known among the Disney community as one of the best attractions to relax on.\u00a0 If you’re more of a Disney newbie you would, more than likely, just skip this attraction.\u00a0 If you fall into that camp you are making a huge mistake!\u00a0 This attraction’s entrance can be hard to find, which may cause you to miss it.\u00a0 It can be found in the same plaza area as The Lunching Pad and is close to the entrance to AstroOrbiter (another commonly skipped attraction, in my opinion). The TTA or Peoplemover, as it’s known, is an amazing option for just sitting back and relaxing.\u00a0 It takes you on the grand circle tour of Tomorrowland, taking you through Space Mountain and with a look into Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin and the shop Mickey’s Star Traders.\u00a0 It is the nicest 10 minutes in the park that you’ll have and, if it’s not busy (which it commonly isn’t), they’ll let you stay on and go around and around and around.\u00a0 So kick back, relax, and enjoy a spin (or many) on the TTA.<\/p>\n The final attraction that you are most likely missing is the Carousel of Progress.\u00a0 This attraction harkens back to Walt Disney and the 1964 World’s Fair.\u00a0 It was one of four attractions built by Walt and his team for the festivities.\u00a0 The show takes you through four different scenes in a theater that rotates and tells the story of one family’s journey through time via technological advances. The show is a favorite for a couple of reasons.\u00a0 One reason is that it gives you a glimpse of where we’ve come from the past 100 years to the present .\u00a0 (If you don’t mind the last “retro future” scene which has clearly missed the mark on the vision of the future and needs an upgrade drastically.\u00a0 It’s still a fun finale, even if it is dated.) \u00a0The other part that is great is the song.\u00a0 Trust me … you WILL have it stuck in your head.\u00a0 (Thank you to the Sherman Brothers). \u00a0This attraction is one you shouldn’t miss because there really is a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow, Shining at the End of Every Day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By Rikki Niblett I’m guilty of it so I know you must be too!\u00a0 With a place the size of Walt Disney World there are always going to be some attractions that have to be dropped\u2026that you simply aren’t going to make it to.\u00a0 Unfortunately, that\u2019s just how it works.
