I think the maddest I’ve been at Disney was when I rode the safari and some grumpy dad kept whistling at the sleeping rhinos and lions, ignoring the cast member telling him to stop. All because they made him sit with his family instead of letting him choose his seat

Wow that’s awful :( I love seeing animals relaxed and sleeping just as much if they are walking around … also he was upset about sitting with his family??? What a dad….

@@destinydavis1421 it was fun and I loved it other than that but just because he was told what to do he just complained and made a scene through most of the safari, him and the old guy a seat behind him kept riffing while his family just looked uncomfortable and embarrassed

that ride is hit or miss. this last weekend was great but before that we sat behind some LOUD foreign people and they were told over and over again to remain silent and they never listened.

@@ZombiiNekoreminds me of the time last year when SmallWorld stopped. A dad stood up in the boat more than once and shouted “ this is not acceptable, we need off this ride NOW!”. When the boat drifted close enough to the side, he hoisted his kid out of the boat near a door, then he and mom followed and out the door they went. Wish I had taken video of it. Not long after, we were all helped out and through a door into the back lot, given water and a lightening lane pass.

Ever since the EPCOT hauls and continuing to take away from what made it so special imo, Animal has become my favorite of the Disney Parks for its cohesion (tho it looks as even it will sometime lose most of it too). It’s simply not a trip to Animal without doing Everest and Dinosaur for me, and Pandora is imo the best land Disney has built since trying to find the same success Universal had with Harry Potter.

@kdusel1991 14 күн бұрын

I like some parts of new Epcot. Guardians is still the best ride that Disney's built so far. But I don't like Communicore Hall. It's just a huge waste of space to me.

Have you ever noticed that in the Columbia Harbor House, there is a portrait of the back of a ship in stormy seas on the colonial side? On Haunted Mansion where the collection of portraits is, there's one with a ship on a stormy sea. My theory is it's the same ship same scene at different angles.

Your dFOODb. I would've liked to know about the food that was pictured. A suggested would possibly be to put on the screen, words that tell us: Restaurant, Name of menu item & price. It doesn't have to be big or bold, but it would be pretty cool because I understand that you can't post ALL foods on those food described videos & some of these in Africa were interesting to me. I would have searched Disney's web site for the ingredients & more.

Yup, definitely use LL for flight of passage. When my wife and i went on it in may, we had lightening lane and waited about 10 to 15 minutes, the folks riding alongside us waited 3 hours. LL for that day cost us $17 each. Considering the ride...well worth it

@Septimus_ii 14 күн бұрын

Yeah, you spend a lot of money to go to Disney World so there's no point saving $17 to spend 3 hours standing in one line

@kmlammto 13 күн бұрын

I was there the weekend before Thanksgiving the year Flight of Passage opened. Lightning Lane was not available for the ride yet. 3 hours got me inside the building, but still an hour from the ride. Fortunately, I was really only there for that ride and the Navi ride. I gave up on the latter as it was listed as more than 2 hours when I finally left Flight. I had lunch and then went to my hotel instead. No tears and I met several interesting people in line. Thankfully, I was alone or it could have been really bad.

Up Close with Rhinos lets you pet a rhino. Tougher to get than Cindys - only 14 slots a day (plus it's less than $50 before tax). Single rider line is great but not if you want to sit in the front like I do (or rear for that matter).

For people planning to take a rideshare out of Animal Kingdom at the end of the park day: be careful that you don’t miss your ride! The vehicles stretch three across all the day down the road and have no front license plate. You can’t see yours coming and it’s hard to find in the lineup unless you go to the end, so you can read all the license plates to find yours.
