It has been a while since we took a visit to Disney’s Animal Kingdom, so let’s see what is new and exciting around the park:
The Rivers of Light lotus blossom light-up popcorn bucket is now available around the park
It’s pretty big…
Turkey legs are back, but only at the beverage service window next door to the main Yak and Yeti quick service location
The facade of the Caravan Theater (home to Flight of Wonder) is still behind tarps…
Work continues on the trails behind the Tree of Life
Pizzafari currently offers three unique souvenir cups
Tiffins and Nomad Lounge have been a bit slow, so they added a check-in podium on the main path to draw in some traffic
The one FuelRod kiosk in the park is located inside Island Mercantile
An Inside Out MagicBand is available now
The TAG merchandise line now has its own mystery pin set
Force Awakens logos were added to this Star wars set
Work continues on Pandora: The World of AVATAR
DINOSAUR is now closed through October for some general maintenance (and maybe a few surprises)
Well, this is outdated now…
Of the new small plates released recently, Kilimanjaro Safaris now has a matching coaster as well
While it only has about a month of life left, there is now a Jungle Book: Alive with Magic pin
Loving the signage for the renamed Discovery Trading Co. store
Back in May, the giant Dinosaur is Dino-Rama was painted green
He still has what i refer to as “nipple lights” underneath…
The Creature Comforts Starbucks has a pretty neat Firefly cupcake on sale
Pangani Forest Exploration Trail was finally renamed Gorilla Falls on signage
The Star Wars attraction posters are now also phone cases
There’s also this giant Jack Skellington phone case which I believe serves no actual practical purpose
The posters are also available as puzzles
The centralized registers at Chester and Hester’s were knocked out, replaced with these side registers
Guests can now find more merchandise in the center
I am sure glad you explained the “TURKEY LEGS. Available in our Quality Beverage” sign. I was seriously thinking that they had gone mad and were trying to start a Turkey Smoothie craze.
So Any world on Rivers Of Light Start Date?
Do you know what is going on with the Hollywood Studios Star Wars fireworks? They are all off to the side and it looks like a mistake in an otherwise really cool show.
Maybe someday they’ll finish off the Dinosaur ride…
