Exploring Pizzafari At Disney's Animal Kingdom
A Restaurant Worth Exploring
At Disney's Animal Kingdom, the theming extends beyond the attractions into the shops and restaurants. There is no better example of this than in Pizzafari.
This Disney World Quick Service restaurant is so much more than a place to get pizza to feed your family. The inside of this restaurant is literally a work of art, well worth exploring.
Disney Parks Imagineers Bring Unbelievable Detail To Animal Kingdom's Expedition Everest
The Disney Parks Imagineers don't create attractions, they tell magnificently rich stories. The attractions that are built just help them communicate the stories that they tell.
Disney's Animal Kingdom may be the Disney Parks Imagineers' best example of storytelling at the Walt Disney World Resort. Today we will look at just one small element of the story that takes place in the mythical town of Anandapur.
Anandapur Mountaineering Association
Within the FastPass queue for the Expedition Everest attraction you may have noticed a small stand that is set up to sell mountaineering supplies.
Actually, if you were in the FastPass queue you most likely raced past this area and never had a chance to look closely at all there was to see.

Exploring Disney Parks: Epcot Touring Plan
Epcot is an amazing theme park filled with a variety of attractions ranging from educational to thrilling with something for everyone in your family. With its vast size, Epcot is easily a theme park that takes at least two days to see all that it has to offer.
A Touring Plan is a “plan” or strategy for seeing the attractions that you wish to see, while minimizing the amount of time that is spent waiting in lines. It takes into account the potential wait times and popularity of various attractions and it also looks at trends for typical park going crowds.
A good touring plan for your visit to a Walt Disney World Park can make the difference between a long, tired, frustrating day, and the best vacation ever.
Epcot: A Tale of Two Worlds
Upon entering Epcot you will want to familiarize yourself with the layout. Look at a map of Epcot prior to entering the park.
Epcot is divided into two Main Sections: Future World and the World Showcase. Future World opens 2 hours before the World Showcase each day so you typically will start your day there.
Strategy
There are two attractions in Epcot that develop long lines and will form the basis for your Touring Plan: Soarin’ and Test Track. Enter the park at rope drop (Disney lingo for opening which is typically 9:00 am). Send a designated person from your party to Soarin’ to get FastPasses for the group. (If you are not familiar with FastPasses read more here: FastPass - the Ticket to Maximizing Your Fun At Disney World)
The rest of the group should head towards Test Track and get in the line once the whole party is there.
After riding Test Track proceed to Mission: Space. There are two versions of this ride: mild and wild. Choose the one that best suits your style, but we highly recommend riding this attraction.
