On my family’s most recent trip to Walt Disney World, my wife, her sister and niece dined at The Bon Voyage Breakfast hosted by Trattoria al Forno on Disney’s Boardwalk. I was off with my daughter climbing the four mountains of Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom (that’s another blog post for another day). My wife knew this was a new and unique experience for our family and took great pictures of her experience for use on the blog.

Park: Magic Kingdom
Location in Park: New Fantasyland
Soft Opening Date: October 12, 2012
Opening Date: December 6, 2012
Vehicle Type: Omnimover
Riders per Clamshell: 2 or 3
Ride duration: 6 minutes 15 seconds
