JAMBO from Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Disney’s Animal Kingdom
We’re taking you along on our most recent trek around this beautiful park — from Discovery Island to DinoLand U.S.A. and everywhere along the way — to check out what’s NEW in Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
We hope you’ll join us…
Donald’s Dino Bash Flotilla
… and a few of our friends who want to say “Hello!”
Chip ‘n’ Dale in their DINO Costumes!
Let’s go!
Animal Kingdom Food Updates
Thirsty River Bar and Trek Snacks
Thirsty River Bar recently reopened, joining its neighbor Trek Snacks in Animal Kingdom’s Asia, just outside of Expedition Everest.
Thirsty River Bar and Trek Snacks
On our most recent visit, we learned that it hasn’t quite returned to full bar status just yet. But even so, guests are welcome to check, and may find that they are able to serve a few options outside of their currently limited menu of cocktails and mocktails.
Vodka Lemonade
For instance, we ordered a Vodka Lemonade ($11.00), and it was a refreshing sip on a VERY hot day!
Check out the recently reopened Thirsty River Bar here!
Zuri’s Sweets Shop
And you may have noticed that we were able to grab a delicious slice of the seasonal Pumpkin Fudge at Zuri’s Sweets Shop for the first time in awhile just last week!

Here’s a glimpse of some of the other seasonal snacks available at this charming confectionery in Animal Kingdom’s Africa.
Fall and Halloween Confections at Zuri’s Sweets Shop
You’ll notice Mummy Mickey Cake Pops, Pumpkin Pie Krispie Treats (have you SEEN these??), Witch Minnie Caramel Apples, and more among the offerings.

Animal Kingdom Attraction Updates
DinoLand USA
HELLOOOO from DinoLand U.S.A., where Fossil Fun Games recently reopened its colorful, whimsical carnival games to guests!
Fossil Fun Games Ticket Booth
ICYMI, yesterday we found a new ticket booth where folks who are ready can “STEP RIGHT UP” and purchase their tickets to take a chance!

Festival of the Lion King
We also couldn’t help but notice that the theater for the Festival of the Lion King has recently added physical distancing markers out front and in their queue lines now.

There is currently no information regarding the return of the beloved production in Animal Kingdom.

However, other live entertainment has recently made its return, as the Dapper Dans (who have materialized for Halloween fun as the Cadaver Dans) are performing once again in Magic Kingdom.

Animal Kingdom Merchandise Updates
Discovery Trading Company
HOORAY! The Leopard Print Minnie Ears are back in stock at Discovery Trading Company!
Leopard Print Minnie Ears
Guests were going WILD for these recently redesigned Ears… so much so, in fact, that they sold out in their early release.
Leopard Print Minnie Ears and Animal Kingdom Spirit Jersey
But they’re back (for $29.99), and ready to pair with your Animal Kingdom Spirit Jersey.
Take a closer look at the Leopard Print Minnie Ears here!
We also noticed that Discovery Trading Company was carrying the Mickey and Minnie Spatula set as well. (It’s $19.99 for the duo.)
Mickey and Minnie Spatula Set
We’ve found bunches of these spatulas sets featuring beloved Disney duos over the past several weeks, all ready to help you whip up some FUN in the kitchen!
“Be Our Guest” and see another Disney duo on a Spatula set here!
