Magic Kingdom Tips to make sure you have a Magical Day \\ Floidians Guide to Orlando



Magic Kingdom Summer Vacation Tips!

 

It's your favorite Orlando local expert JessyJen here to give you some tips to make sure your day at Magic Kingdom as magical as it can be. This is what I do and would advise anyone to do to make the most out of your day.

  1. Purchase your tickets in advance or at your hotel at least a day or two before you plan to visit the park..
  2. Download the My Disney Experience app and set up your fast passes. Each ticket has 3 fast passes for the day so choose the bigger rides such as Space Mountain or the Mine Train.
  3. Get familiar with the app and research all the dinning options available in the park to see what works with your budget.
  4. RESERVATIONS! Make a dinning reservation in advance before you come to eat at any of the full service restaurants in the park. You do not need a ticket to make a reservation but you do need to use a credit card to hold your reservation.
  5. Get to the park early. Magic Kingdom actually takes a really long time to get into to park, so give yourself about 30 minutes from parking to entering the park. They do have a morning show before the park opens in front of the castle and they start letting guest in the gate 30 minutes before rope drop! (Remember to take a photo of where you parked so you don't spend time at the end of the night looking for your car)
  6. Make sure you grab the entertainment guide and the park map to know what is going on that day in the park and to have the updated show times for that day.
  7. The busiest rides are Seven Dwarf's Mine Train, Big Thunder Mountain, Space Mountain, and Peter Pan. I recommend trying to do those rides first in the morning before they get up to their 100+ minute wait times. (You could ride up to 6 rides in the first 3-4 hours of being there at park open)
  8. Make sure you plan before hand the characters you want to meet and where they are in the park because their wait times can get just as long as the attraction times.
  9. FIREWORKS and PARADES you should get there about 45 minutes-an hour before it starts to guarantee a spot where you can see them. Standing up top at the train station is a great spot for the parade and fireworks.
  10. Leaving the park can be a pain and can take you almost an hour or longer to get to your car or to your hotel shuttle. The busiest time of leaving the park is right after the fireworks and of course right at park close. Try leaving 30 minutes before the park closing to avoid those crowds or before the fireworks start. PRO TIP: walk to the contemporary and get on the hotel monorail because it also stops at the ticket and transportation center which is where the parking lot is found..
This is my best advise I can give to you to make your Disney day magical. I hope this helps anyone planning their day at Magic Kingdom this summer. Remember that Magic Kingdom is the busiest of the four Walt Disney World Resort parks.

Tea Cup // Outfit Of The Day

I went to a tea room for lunch and this outfit inspired by English rose gardens and those pretty bone china floral tea cups. The back of the dress is open so I work a bralette that is a pastel pink and lace one. It went with the whole English tea room theme of the outfit and for the tea room we went to. The dress is white with pastel pink painted ross on it. I got it last year at Forever 21 and I don't think they sell this dress anymore. I really love the shape and color of the dress. I didn't want any shoes that took away from the dress so I paired this outfit with my nude flats I got at a boutique in California. The purse is by Betsy Johnson and I love wearing this with pastel outfits. It has a black bow and a pink fluff ball on the side. Gold chain and black straps. Its a fake leather with little black hearts. This has been one of my go to purses right now. Make sure you checked my previous blog post about the tea room I went to (The Twisted ...

Try and find some beach themed foods, like fruits, veggies, sandwiches, anything you would pack with you or buy at t...

Florida Winter Looks

If you live in a place that doesn't really get freezing cold, like Florida, here are some cute outfit ideas. Also, I'm more into the brightly colored winter clothes so here are some options. If you are not big on the bright colors this sweater is a great way to jazz up your look. Glitter, Sparkles,  and Sequins are always a great way to show that you're fun. This is also not a very thick sweater so it's great for Florida or California since it doesn't get very cold. The sweater is also very festive for Christmas and New Years Eve. If it isn't very cold like it is now in Florida go with a thing bright colored sweater and your favorite shorts. You can pair this with a bright hand bag and your favorite flip flops. You can also wear sneakers if you'd prefer. Now if it is a little too chilly for shorts wear bright colored jeans or leg gins to keep your legs warm. This is the perfect Florida winter outfit. Now this is actually my favorite one out ...
