Today we've got a fun update from Disney's Animal Kingdom and the Earth Day Celebration (and 19th Birthday of the park). Have you ever wanted to see DAK through the eyes of a shark cut-out? Well, you're in luck!!! Written by Renée Girard Happy 19th birthday, and Earth Day to Disney's Animal Kingdom! There are several Party for the Planet stops around DAK for Earth Day . Here you can choose an animal and have fun with photos! We picked the shark, let's give this a try! There is also an Earth Day cupcake that you can find at a few locations today, including Starbucks. That's quite a large selfie stick, and they're all the way in the back of the park! I'm impressed they made it this far. Tiger shark? New lighting installed behind the Tree of Life Expedition Everest. Dinosaur. Another Party for the Planet stop in Dino Land. Some Earth Day inspired products being sold around the park. Highly recommend going for a walk through the Tree of Life Garden for some amazing up close views of the incredible detail on it! Some more fun with our new shark friend around DAK. Expedition Everest through the shark. There is a nice view of kangaroos lounging if you walk through the Tree of Life Garden. Flower Shark Medal Shark Happy birthday, DAK! Hope it's a wild one! Related Updates: Today we've got an update from the kick-off of the Flower and Garden Festival at EPCOT. Lots of great topiaries to see this year along with the traidional food and wine booths. We'll also hop over to Disney's Animal Kingdom for a quick visit to take in Rivers of Light again. Written by Renée Girard Tonight we are also making a quick stop at Epcot to see some of the Flower & Garden Festival that just started recently. The character topiaries are always a highlight of the festival. Looks great so far! And let's not forget the food & drinks! At Urban Farm Eats, I tried the Crabless Cake with Wildflower pale ale. The Berry Basket is new this year. Might have to make a stop there next visit! Florida Fresh is a favorite stop of mine, mainly for the beer! Chocolate cake at the Smokehouse is amazing! They have a great selection of merchandise for the festival. Loving all the Figment. I might have bought the Mickey ears. Epcot looks just beautiful this time of year. During sunset is a lovely time to take a walk around and smell the flowers at Epcot. And when the sun goes down, the topiaries all light up and it is also quite magical. Enjoyed our short visit to Epcot for a bit of Flower & Garden Festival fun. Since it runs through May, we'll definitely be back! Extreme park hopping! Now we're at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Really love this park at night. Drinking a beer with a light up lotus blossom, just because I can Related Updates: After a pretty significant delay, Rivers of Light at Disney's Animal Kingdom is now in "Soft Open" mode. The new show is about 15 minutes long and hasn't really had a whole lot of changes from it's previews last year. Below we've got a full video of the new show as well as some pictures. Enjoy!! Written by Renée Girard Surprise visit to Disney's Animal Kingdom tonight! Can you guess why? Rivers of Light begins previews tonight. Show time in 15 minutes! Rivers of Light merchandise available at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Flowers float along the water. It's almost time! Rivers of Light is now shorter than an earlier preview we saw of it. It's a beautiful show and a lovely fit for DAK. Glad to see that Rivers of Light has a more prominent finale now. The technology used in this show is amazing to see. Thanks again to both Renee and Chris for the awesome preview of the newest Disney show. We hope you enjoyed it, and if so, please share!! Related Updates:
