DINING PLAN:

Israel and I choose the dining plan where you get a table service meal, snack, and counter service meal. We found this plan to be very effective. It was all paid for and even the tip was included. All you do is look at the brochure and see the lists of restaurants participating in the plan. Many are.

MAGIC KINGDOM

The Magic Kingdom turned out to be our favorite park. I've been there twice before, but my husband has never been. The accessibility is very good and easy to navigate. Many rides we were interested in, I didn't need to transfer.

Our Favorites:

It's a Small World - If you're in a wheelchair, you can go right in. This makes it so much easier and you don't bump into others. They have a couple boats that you can drive or wheel your chair right on. It's not scary at all and a must see.

Buzz Lightyear - This ride might seem for younger children, but it's for people of all ages. You can drive or wheel into a wheelchair accessible car and participate. It is a little loud and lots of flashing lights, but it's not scary. We rode this twice.

Mickey's PhilharMagic - This was definitely our favorite. It was a 3D movie with music, smells, and feelings. We were amazed by it. You don't have to get out of your wheelchair. Some parts might be a little loud, but it is not scary.

Cinderellabration - We only saw this from afar, but it was good. It shows all the princes and princessess together. At the end the shoot off a few fireworks even in the daytime. I found the fireworks startling and you can hear them no matter where you are in the park.

Haunted Mansion - This ride Israel had to transfer me. They made it very easy by stopping the ride so he could put me on/off. The ride is gentle, but a little spooky.
