What I’m Reading: Goosebumps One Day at Horrorland
Many of you may not know it (or you probably can guess), but I’m a big kid at heart.
It shouldn’t be a surprise that at times I like to delve into some of my favorite book series I enjoyed as a child (and still do).
I am reading Goosebumps One Day at Horrorland by R. L. Stine.
This was my favorite book of the horror-fantasy book series because it not only kept the spooky, quirky fireside story traditions; it combined it with my favorite passion…
…Theme Parks and Amusement Parks!
I am super excited to chat about one of my absolute favorite attractions at Walt Disney World and a true classic, Spaceship Earth at EPCOT.
Beckoning you to enter EPCOT, a park inspired by a utopia that Walt himself envisioned for the future, is Spaceship Earth.
It can be seen from various parts of Walt Disney World Resort and stands as the icon for the park.
Spaceship Earth represents a huge aspect of the human race, communication, and is a piece of technological marvel.
Today, I will be sharing the ride’s fascinating history, Instagram worthy tip and tricks on how to explore this wonderful and beloved attraction!
Let’s take a journey into the past.
You know it and I am sure you love it! It’s the Disney Monorail.
This marvel can be found at several Disney Parks, and some consider it to be an attraction in itself.
The monorail’s connection to Disney Parks is pretty special and fascinating to learn about.
Unlike its Disney World counterpart, you don’t necessarily need it to get around Disneyland Resort. But you could be treated to some fun experiences and amazing views.
The Disneyland Monorail is unique in which its great for all ages, perfectly ADA accessible and truly a credit to Walt and his people at Walt Disney Imagineering.
You can see the variety of monorail skins, but let’s get into the business of what makes it so special, how it changed the theme park world, and how you can use it for your upcoming Disneyland Resort visit!
