Animal Kingdom

Disney, Disney, Disney! The place where dreams come true, Princesses wander, Pirates fight, and there is a new adventure waiting around EVERY corner! It is every child’s dream to go to this exhilarating place. Disney World makes the impossible, possible and it is by far my FAVOURITE place on earth!

Characters

Whether you’re wandering the stone pathways or waiting in line for a ride, these fun, silly and beautiful characters will pop-up and greet you with the most enthusiasm ever known to mankind! It’s amazing to experience the princesses and other characters from your favorite shows or movies, hug you and act as if you’re their favourite celebrity! You will get hugs, kisses, high fours (Mickey Mouand his friends only have four fingers) and even autographs – so don’t forget to bring your book! My favourite is Minnie Mouse because she is the sweetest of all the characters and makes your day that much more magical! I also LOVE Cinderella! She was my favorite princess when I was younger and still is to this day! She makes me feel like I am the princess!

Food

Yak and Yeti Restaurant

In between walking, waiting in lines, and best of all, going on rides, EVERYONE will probably be starving! I don’t know about you, but sitting on the cement ground while eating a PB&J sandwich is probably not the ideal ‘Disney’ lunch. To get the full experience I think it is 100% necessary to get lunch at one of the many onsite restaurants! You may be thinking, it’s so expensive or I don’t want to waste my time! Trust me on this, the restaurants are worth every penny and not a single second is wasted when you’re having the time of your life, meeting the characters you love the most. You get to refuel for the day while being entertained by Disney characters! There are sooo many restaurants to choose from, but my two favourites are Tusker House and The Yak and Yeti! In Tusker House you’re greeted by Mickey, Minnie, Goofy and Pluto! They ALL come directly to your table and you can get autographs and interact with them without waiting in a line! The Yak and Yeti is located in the ‘Asia’ section of Animal Kingdom and it has the most delicious Asian food EVER!

Rides

I saved the best part for last… something that Disney just couldn’t be Disney without -THE RIDES! In Expedition Everest, you are in a roller coaster being chased up Mt. Everest by a Yeti. Then your tracks are broken and you toppled backward down the same path you came up! Twisting and turning at breakneck speeds – it is thrilling and scary and I love it! Another one of my favourites is the famous Dinosaur ride! You are teleported back in time to save the Iguanadon from extinction, but a meteor shower rains down on you and your faced with the task of no longer rescuing the Iguanadon, but just returning alive! Finally, my ultimate favourite ride in all of Disney World’s Animal Kingdom is Avatar Flight of Passage! You become an avatar and take flight on the back of a banshee, exploring the world’s beauty and it’s dangers! The line for this ride was crazy long, but the amazing scenery and interactive line up helped the time pass!

Disney is by far the BEST place on earth and there is no one I would rather spend it with then my amazing family. Next year, Star Wars opens in Hollywood Studios and I will be begging to go to that park!

One thought on “Animal Kingdom

  1. Amazing blog! The characters at Disney seem very nice and welcoming. Can’t believe mickey and minnie always give you hugs and signs your books. This teaches me when I go to Disney I should go right up and they will give me hugs and I should bring a book to get it signed. This is because personally I’m afraid to approach people even when I want a picture but since I now learned they are welcoming and nice I can go right up to them to get a book signed (thank you for telling me to bring a book so I can get it signed as the characters are welcoming). As well as, usually when we go on trips with my family we bring our own lunch but I learned that when you buy food at the restaurant in Disney especially at Tusker House the characters all come greet you. I want to experience that. Personally I haven’t ever experienced something where characters greet you or give you autographs. So now I’ve definitely learned not to bring my own lunch but instead eat out to experience the full Disney experience! Good job!
