Happy Sunday, everyone! The sun is shining today, and our plans have Disney World written all over them!

Tree of Life

And, what better place is there to soak up that Florida sunshine than in Disney’s Animal Kingdom?

We couldn’t resist popping into the park to see the Tree of Life, maybe grab a few treats, and (of course) see some of our fluffy friends along the way!

Whether you’re looking for a unique attraction or you want to take a break from your long walks around the park, the Kilimanjaro Safaris is a wonderful ride to visit! The Harambe Wildlife Reserve is home to 34 species of animals who roam on 110 acres of land, specified to their habitat needs. You can find African Elephants chilling out by the water and waving to guests with their trunks (hi, friend 👋)…

…before you move along to see tons of other animals during your expedition through the Kilimanjaro Safaris! During our visit, we spotted a baby boy rhino named Ranger nursing on his mother, which made EVERYONE a little emotional on-board.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a safari ride without spotting the Kings AND Queens of the Jungle lounging about on the reserve’s rocks! The lions and lionesses were enjoying the sunshine like us as their pride had a lovely Sunday afternoon together in Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
