30 day Disney World challenge: Day 21Favorite character to see in the parks: Donald Duck 
A few quick facts:

Donald is most famous for his semi-intelligible speech and his mischievous and irritable personality
Depending on the area of Disney World you’re in, Donald is often seen donning different attire, a sombrero and serape in the Mexican pavilion or a raccoon skin cap in Frontierland

30 day Disney World challenge: Day 20Favorite Disney World dessert: Apple Pie (usually from the Liberty Inn in Epcot)
A few quick facts:
It’s apple pie, that’s about it!
I love apple pie so I always end up getting this, I can never really eat thick cake or heavy chocolate when it’s too hot out so this is what I go for.

30 day Disney World challenge: Day 19Least favorite attraction: Stitch’s Great Escape 
A few quick facts:
Stitch’s Great Escape is a theatre-in-the-round experience starring the title alien from the 2002 Disney movie Lilo & Stitch
The attraction uses the set and some of the same technology as its predecessor, Alien Encounter, and uses many of your senses to create the experience
Unlike Alien Encounter which was unintended for children under 12, Stitch’s Great Escape is much more kid friendlier
I like how online people call it Stitch’s Great Mistake, I can’t help but agree.

30 day Disney World challenge: Day 18What attraction do you wish they’d bring back: ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter 
A few quick facts:
Alien Encounter was a theatre-in-the-round attraction in Tomorrowland
It was a darkly humorous science fiction experience that used binaural sound to achieve its effects
The ride warned guests that it was intense and unintended for children under the age of 12
It closed permanently in October of 2003 and the spot was replaced with Stitch’s Great Escape which uses the same set and much of the same technology in a more kid friendlier way
Unlike Stitch’s Great Escape, much of Alien Encounter took place in total darkness and relied on the riders non-visual senses 
I think I have to give my own opinion on why I picked this ride. Alien Encounter brought a great dark element to Disney and Tomorrowland, I think by using everyone’s unknown fear of an actual Alien encounter and staying true to the “tomorrow/out of this world” aspect that Tomorrowland shows. It was intense when I was 9 but in a good way and who didn’t love Tim Curry voicing one of those robots.

The TVs show clips from prime time sitcoms circa 1955 including “Father Knows Best” and the original “Mickey Mouse Club”
Feel at home in Mom’s kitchenette but remember to mind your manners and eat your veggies or you may find yourself in the corner
With 50’s knick-knacks and a View Master that displays the dessert menu, 50’s Prime Time Cafe’s main ingredient is nostalgia and you’re sure to feel right at home

30 day Disney World challenge: Day 16Favorite snack to grab in the park: Candy/Caramel apples
A few quick facts:
Under all that delicious coating is usually a green granny smith apple since the tart flavor of the apple contrasts nicely with the candy coating
Your choice of toppings are endless, starting with your traditional red candy shell or plain caramel dipped, but if your craving a real sweet treat just about any other candy topping can be found 
At Goofy’s Candy Company in Downtown Disney, you can even customize an apple any way you want while you wait 
Those dressed up apples can be difficult and messy to eat at times, so ask a cast member behind the counter to cut the apple in easy to eat slices for you to enjoy on your way around the parks
