Hi everyone! It’s a perfect day to take a walk around Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
We’ve spotted a few interesting things while out and about, so shall we get to it? LET’S DO THIS!
Animal Kingdom Merchandise Updates
Riverside Depot
We spotted a lot of cool merch at Riverside Depot. But probably the most PRECIOUS thing we saw was this adorable Minnie Mouse Infant Accessory Set, complete with a bow and THE CUTEST SOCKS EVER.
How about this The Nightmare Before Christmas Notebook? This is SO perfect for diehard fans of the movie!
The inside cover features the scientific formula for how to make Christmas!
Plus plenty of blank pages to write up our own holiday equations!

What’s this? It’s a The Nightmare Before Christmas Tie Dye Shirt! Look at the cute details (ZERO!)
And because we can’t get enough of The Nightmare Before Christmas stuff, here’s the Mayor on his own Alex and Ani Bracelet we found!
We also found this crazy cool and creepy Poison Apple Statue. This would look perfect as the centerpiece of a Halloween display, doncha think? Just one bite!
This is pretty much the only thing you would need for awesome Halloween decor!

Island Mercantile
This absolutely adorable Dug Mug has our mood way UP!
But wait, there’s more! Here’s the back! AWWWW!!!! We LOVE Dug!
We also spotted a ton of Retro T-shirts that we’ve seen in other locations around the parks.
We really love the look of these Mickey and Minnie T-shirts, too!
But also, DONALD being his usually grumpy self is a LOOK.
Animal Kingdom Construction Update
Kilimanjaro Safaris
Construction on the mysterious little building in Kilimanjaro Safaris is still moving right along. Here’s what it looked like during our visit.
We’re still checking back frequently to see what the mystery shack could be!
That’s it for us from Animal Kingdom. Hope you enjoyed the updates!
We’ll keep you updated on more goings-on around the parks, and let you know about anything we happen to find!
Here’s how we’re celebrating Hong Kong Disneyland Resort’s 15th Birthday!
