The Magic Kingdom is the only park I remember at Walt Disney World when we started going in 1976. We’ve been at least once a year since, and so that’s the first park we visited this time.

We thought it wouldn’t be crowded on a Monday, but we guessed wrong. The place was mobbed and the temperature hit the upper eighties by noon. We passed by Pirates of the Caribbean, even though I would have liked to see the updated version. The line was too long, and my husband lacks patience. Outside, a Johnny Depp lookalike entertained guests with his impersonation of Captain Jack. Moving on, we bypassed the Enchanted Tiki Room, the treehouse, the jungle cruise, and Splash Mountain to head for our next favorite attraction. Unfortunately, the Haunted Mansion is closed for renovations.
Normally, we get there earlier and speed to the places on our priority list. But today we didn't care. Our objective was to enjoy the scenery and take a walk. Now that we're part-time residents and have annual passes, we can stop by for a few hours in the mornings, eat lunch, then head out to the real world for the afternoon.

Looking for a sedate ride, we hopped on the train and rode around the park to get cooled off. Then we ate lunch at Liberty Square Tavern, having had the foresight to make reservations as soon as we’d entered the park. Nice healthy meal of grilled chicken on salad greens. Onward through Fantasyland, past the kiddie rides to Tomorrowland, which I’ve always enjoyed. We caught a ride on the people mover, now called the transit authority or some such thing (I don't have my guidemap handy). This open-air tram whisks you around Tomorrowland on a raised track for a glimpse at the other attractions. Then we went into my favorite, ever since the NY World’s Fair in 1964: the Carousel of Progress. Don’t miss this gem. In a revolving theater, you view a household tableaux starting at the turn of the century, moving into the next few decades, until reaching modern time. The audioanimatronic family in each scene brags about the conveniences of their era and how lucky they are to be living in such a progressive time. The whole message is educational as well as optimistic about the future. Let’s all sing together: “There’s a great, big beautiful tomorrow, waiting at the end of every day....”
