  • March Disney World AEP Trip {Day 5}! Part 1–Animal Kingdom

    Posted at 8:40 am by taryngirl, on July 18, 2018

    Sadly my departure day was here.  BUT!  I always get the latest direct flight home on Southwest.  So I had some time to hit the parks until the afternoon.  I started off with my usual breakfast at French Quarter, Sassagoula Floatworks and Food Factory:

    Mickey Waffles with Sausage!  This is by far, my favorite Quick Service breakfast!

    After breakfast, I headed to Animal Kingdom.  I went straight to Pandora to meet up with my roommates.  I spent some time taking pics!

    Pongu Pongu–a popular drink stand:

    Inside Windtraders Shop:

    This land is so amazing!

    From there we headed over to Africa because we had a Fastpass+ for Kilimanjaro Safaris.  This was taken on the bridge heading into Africa.  It is just so amazing to me, how different each of the parks are!

    I rarely have the opportunity to “check out” every kiosk, etc., so I made sure to do that this time!  This is Tamu Tamu Refreshments.  I never knew they had Dole Whips here!  AND you can get it with rum!

    I also got to look around the Harambe Market.  It was just before opening time at 11 a.m., and there were a few people in line waiting already!  I personally have never eaten anything from here yet.  This area is really neat though!

    This is one of the “famous” walls throughout Disney World.  See if you can find it next time you are there!

    One of my favorite places for a quick snack is Zuri’s Sweets Shop!  I can always find a sweet treat here.

    The Harambe Fruit Market is another great place to grab a snack.  You can see the Corn on the Cob counts as a Snack on the Disney Dining Plan (the purple and white logo DDP).  The corn is not listed on the official menu online, but it was there in March!

    All of the items with the DDP symbol count as a snack credit on the Disney Dining Plan!

    It was finally time for our Fastpass+!  So we headed over to the Safari entrance.  We were so lucky to see Augustus!  The cute baby hippo!

    Lots of animals were out today!

    You can also see more snacks as noted with the DDP symbol.  From here we went to see the Festival of the Lion King.  This is a DO NOT MISS show!  It’s really fun to watch and action packed.  I unfortunately didn’t take any pictures.

    We wanted to eat lunch at Satu’li Canteen back in Pandora, so we started to make our way there.  Did you know there’s a path that can lead you there directly from the Festival of the Lion King?  If you pull up the map on My Disney Experience you will see it.  It was a really nice walk with not a lot of people!  This ice cream cart was on the way.  Note the DDP symbol for snacks!

    I had a Fastpass+ for Na’vi River Journey.  It’s a really neat boat ride.  It’s a little bit short, but the details are amazing!  It’s very slow, no drops, a little bit dark inside, but perfect for anyone no matter the age or size.  Here’s a short video I took!
