Navigating Disney Rides: Splash Mountain

After reading some positive feedback on how these videos are helping people plan their Disney vacations I have decided to find a few more videos to share with everyone. Today, I am featuring the third and final Magic Kingdom Mountain (the other two are Space Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad), Splash Mountain. Splash Mountain is your basic “log ride” as I like to call them. I believe some people call them flume rides? The theming of this ride really makes it worth riding the ride once because it has the story of Brer Rabbit and gang and ends with you going into the briar patch like Brer Rabbit did. It is a fairly long ride but the story as you to to the top keeps your attention and you really don’t notice how long you have been on the ride.

Pros: great on a hot day (you get a little splash at the end of the ride), interesting story line, you get to see Brer Rabbit and gang which is hard to do nowadays, the drop is very fast
Cons: If you are a chicken like me you will not like the drop - there are no safety bars or belts - and it is pretty high, the ride is long so it may seem like it is dragging on, if you get offended by Song of the South skip this ride!

So now that we have that out of the way on to the video!
