Florida"s Walt Disney World Resort for the Young At Heart

Kids aren't the only ones who have fun at the Disney World Resort in Florida. People who want to feel like kids again will have much to love and enjoy here, as well. And if you happen to be a Senior Citizen, there are a variety of enjoyable, accessible ways to experience Disney. Numerous Disney World attractions are designed for Senior Citizens, so from the theme parks to the resorts, there's something sure to float your boat.

Wheel Chair Accessible

If you or any in your party are wheelchair bound, there are many wheelchair accessible attractions at Disney. Do you need a hotel room with a wheelchair accessible bathroom? Or, you can also avoid discomfort and minimize the time you spend on your feet, as well. There are many delightful attractions designed specifically for Seniors and very young children.

Rides to Remember

How about a relaxing boat ride touring different cultures on It's a Small World? Peter Pan's Flight through Neverland is also another option. You can even go on the Jungle Cruise for a safari with a 1930s feel.

Of Special Interest

Senior Seniors would especially enjoy attractions like The Hall of Presidents - a twenty-five minute stage show, or the Carousel of Progress, which chronicles the developments of the Twentieth Century. And the Senior set should be sure not to miss Walt Disney: One Man's Dream, a fascinating walking exhibit chronicling the birth of Disney World.

Space Age Fun at Epcot Center

Did you ever dream of traveling back through time, or even forward into the future? Then Ellen's Energy Adventure is definitely something you shouldn't miss. Or, get on the magnificent Spaceship Earthat Epcot Center for a fantasy-filled ride. You can also get on various futuristic rides at Tomorrowland at the Magic Kingdom, such as the rocket that will take you to higher heights and give you spectacular aerial views of the park.

Stage Shows and Parades

If you want to keep your feet planted firmly on the ground, you can also forego the rocket at Tomorrowland and just enjoy great entertainment in the comforts of your seat. From parades with giant Disney characters, to stage shows, street performers, fireworks and more, the choices are endless and limited only by your sense of imagination.

Evening Leisure

After the parks, do you still have some energy to burn? Check out the Boardwalk with its 1940s romance. Or check out downtown, with its shops and interactive fountains. Have dinner at a theme restaurant, and maybe head to Cirque du Soleil's La Nouba for an incredible display of animals, trapeze artists, and clowns. Indeed, with so many excellent choices, keeping the spring in your step is definitely made easier.
