Columbia Harbour House at Disney

August 21, 2012

The Columbia Harbour House is a quick service dining spot located at Magic Kingdom Park in Liberty Square.  Conveniently found right around the corner from The Hall of Presidents and across the path from the entrance to The Haunted Mansion.

This nautically themed restaurant is reminiscent of New England in the late 18th century.  The clapboard exterior and fieldstone siding makes you feel as if you are in Colonial America.  The interior has oak flooring, old-fashioned sconces and wainscoting.  There are nautical themed paintings located in all of the different dining areas.

There are several dining areas inside with plenty of seating for everyone at the Columbia Harbour House.  One of our favorite spots is the upstairs area over the bridge between Liberty Square and Fantasyland.  It is quiet upstairs; most people don’t know there is an upstairs here. The view is wonderful.  It is a perfect spot to unwind while you enjoy a great meal.

Oktoberfest Disney

Located at the Germany Pavilion in Epcot, Biergarten is one of the most entertaing dining spot in the theme parks.  Upon entering the restaurant you are taken to a Bavarian Village celebrating Oktoberfest in the evening.  The tables are set up as large family-style seating.  If you have a small party you will be seated with other guests.  This all lends to the fun party atmosphere of the restaurant.  German oompah music is playing in the background and once an hour, the guests are entertained by a trio of German musicians.  The guests are encouranged to join in, by singing and dancing during the show.

Disney’s Electrical Water Pageant

August 15, 2012

Every night just on the Seven Seas Lagoon and Bay Lake, a spectacle comes on to delight the guests who may not be at the parks during that time.  Disney’s Electrical Water Pageant Light Show illuminates the lake as guests watch from the distance.  This water show is very similar to the famous Main Street Electrical Parade because of its colorful lighting style.  Tiny colorful lights reveal animals and characters such as King Neptune.

Just a couple of the animals that are part of Disney’s Electrical Water Pageant are jumping fish and a smiling octopus that glows bright red.  Now, if Captain Hook were to find himself on this lake with his ship or even just standing from the distance, he better run because Croc is here!  The crocodile illuminates to a bright green and opens his mouth ready for any prey to land into his stomach including the Captain!  Like they say, ”never smile at a crocodile”!
