Park at DD Marketplace. Walk through DD toward Westside. Eat lunch at one of the restaurants there then take the boat back to the Marketplace side.
Love this show. Don't forget to turn your head to the back of the theater when it ends
To avoid long waits, don't make Spaceship Earth your first stop in the morning because it is the most popular in the morning. The wait will be shorter at any other part of the day.
Make sure you smile during the 1st part of the ride as you’re going through the tunnel. You’ll use the picture taken here when you design your own future on the touch-screen at the end of the ride.
Go at night for a completely different experience. (Keep in mind, going at night can be a little scary for the kiddos.)
One of the great classic attractions! Reopened after being down for refurbishment.
"It's a singing show. With birds". As quoted by Disney Cast member.
You need fast pass - slowest line in the park and fast past gets priority - worth it if you don't want to wait for 90 minutes.

Tell the clerk "Danger is my cup of tea" and they will give you a tea bag sampler. (Kim Possible mission)

Sit next to the fan. They're on the poles in the middle of the theater.
Little kids - and bigger kids if there's no line - should definitely have a go at the archery station!
Ryan is great. If asked by the animator, say you've drawn there before and that you've drawn Mickey. It gets the class to do something a little more interesting.
The Storybook Circus gift shop has gifts for sale not found anywhere else in Disney parks! Like Dumbo shirts & plush, & very artistic Minnie ears!

This is the bet location to begin the game. There is a very short wait to get your free set of cards.
This particular Disney park tends to feel hotter than the others. Like Hollywood, this park has a lot of asphalt that attracts a lot of heat. Visit the park before the hottest time of day or at night.
The five busts at the beginning of the new cemetery area compose a riddle. Use the clues in the poems and hidden on the busts to figure out who killed whom.

Great spot to view Wishes but reservation is required!
My favorite Quick Service in all of Walt Disney World! Grab a sandwich and listen to the people trying to get their Soarin' Fastpasses! Then stop by Living with the Land, a wonderful overlooked ride!
One of the ONLY attractions at DisneyWorld Walt Disney actually put HIS hands on. Although slightly outdated, it's amazing to see how Disney really pioneered technology. LOTS of air-conditioning!
If MSEP is running twice, watch the 2nd one and take advantage of short attraction lines during the 1st one.
While you're waiting for the parade, head to the Tomorrowland side of the Hub and you're likely to see Push, the talking robotic trash can. He's one of the most fun characters Disney has ever created.
Best place to watch is town square, most people don't bother to look for spots that far down!
If you choose to skip Mission:SPACE while the rest of your group goes on the attraction, wait in the air-conditioned interactive play space, Mission: SPACE Advanced Training Lab.
Prone to motion sickness? Get on the non-spinning Green ride, and avoid a longer wait for the spinning Orange side.

Everyone flocks to Main Street for the Spectomagic parade in the evening, but Frontierland is empty! Even at parade start time, front row seats are readily available.

This here is the wildest ride in the wilderness! Check out the hidden Pooh bear on your right hand side upon returning back to the station!
The West Wing is beautiful. Its dark and gloomy, however if you are not seated there, make sure to go in to see the Enchanted Rose, the Ripped photos and listen to the Thunder and lightning.

Arrive about five minutes before the posted class time. Once the class begins, the empty computers are disabled. Late students must wait until the next show time.
Beware tables 10a and 25a. Category 1 full price but with a nasty large pole directly in line of sight. Apparently all ground floor are cat1 hmmm but some are clearly more cat1 than others

Across from the bathrooms, between Haunted Mansion and It's a Small World, is a little courtyard where you can recharge your phone in one if about 4 or 5 fake tree stumps with outlets. Wow.
Probably the best store in the Magic Kingdom. A good time to shop is during the fireworks; I had the entire store to myself.
