Good afternoon from Disney’s Animal Kingdom! It’s been a while since we’ve had some WDW content, and we thought we’d let Disney Genie do the planning today. Let’s see what kind of adventure this takes us on…
We already had lunch, so skipping Flame Tree, but Finding Nemo sounds like a good idea. Except it’s raining and we don’t feel like waiting an hour, so it’s the 2:30 show instead.
Finding Nemo: The Musical is a shell of what it was pre-Covid, but the performers are outstanding and most of the fantastic songs remain.
South American tour groups have returned. Nature is healing.
Genie has updated the selections. I already found Nemo… rain is holding me back from venturing over to safari but hey, I’ll give it a chance.
Took a detour at the Restarantosaurus Lounge for a drink, a hidden gem, where cast member Jimmy is the real MVP.
Genie tells me to see Nemo at 4:30 but I already did. Park offerings are limited. Tell me what I should do and I’ll do it.
With pretty much no wait and was along our pathway, It’s Tough to be a Bug wins for our next stop. Will check in with Genie after the show for our next suggestion.
Hopper is alive!
Ok Genie wants me to check out the safari so I’ll stop by and might take a detour to the 5pm Lion King show.
There are so many pathways surrounding the Tree of Life, including the It’s Tough to be a Bug exit, where you get spectacular views like this.
Whoops another detour from Genie, at Dawn bar for beer and saying hi to some friends!
Safari will have to wait. For now, It is Time.
Festival of the Lion King was fantastic
On to the safari as recommended by Genie, and looks as if he has made the right call.
Always love the safari.
Genie has us getting food in 50 min so not sure what to do next but we’ll gladly take a walk around.
Not waiting till 6:50 to get food as recommended by Genie… No wait at Nomad Lounge!
Gave up on following Genie and just took a walk through Pandora. Thanks for following our journey today!
