Once located in Epcot’s Mexico Pavillion, the El Rio del Tiempo boat ride, also known as the River of Time, took passengers along a boat ride through Mexico. As of 2007 this version of the ride was removed and replaced with the Gran Fiesta Tour. Since the ride was actually rather good, I felt I should post it anyway and soon the newer version will also be here on Disney World Video. The ride took you through a strolling tour of Mexico, showings it’s beaches and party atmosphere. It was somewhat like Small World in nature but had it’s own flavor as it housed both animatronic and projected video, making for a very fun mix. The tune was also very catchy as well! Since it’s been gone for a few years all we have left of El Rio del Tiempo is the video ride through. Enjoy!

In Disney’s Magic Kingdom you would expect the most nice and gentle rides wouldn’t you? ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter changed all those rules as Disney created one of the most scariest rides out there. In Encounter you experienced first hand the future of transportation. But when the teleportation goes horribly wrong and an alien is intercepted instead of the real visitor, the audience is in for one scary experience. With motion sensors riding on your shoulders you hear and feel the alien as it breaks lose and wrecks havoc around throughout the room. In the end the controllers finally recapture the alien and the experience is over. After about 10 years in operation Disney felt the attraction was just too scary for the section of the park and replaced it with Stitch’s Great Escape. The general feel of Alien Encounter is still there but the thrill and fear aspect is very much gone. Although you may not able to experience Alien Encounter in person anymore we always will have our digital ride through.

Although Tarzan Rocks is no longer showing in Animal Kingdom it is still one of the most favorite shows in Disney World. The show packed all your favorite songs from the Tarzan movie into a show full for thrills and action. As the singers belted out the tunes from the movie BMX “monkeys” would roller blade, bike and skate in the background. Air performances were also taking place throughout the show with Tarzan and Jane flying around the jungle live right in front of you. The show was a great one and now can only be seen in digital format as it has been replaced by Nemo The Musical.
