Animal Kingdom: Today's Lightest Park, Pal

Now don't that be nice — by the seven-day trend, Animal Kingdom is the lightest big park today, Saturday, October 17, with not a single headliner averaging over 50 minutes. That means Flight of Passage and Expedition Everest can both fit into one happy morning. It closes at 8 PM, so ease into the afternoon with the Festival of the Lion King show, runnin' about hourly till 5 — a good air-conditioned sit-down if those late-morning clouds show up. Collector note: that new park-exclusive Animal Kingdom logo Pandora charm was just reported in stock, so if jewelry is your thing, take a peek while you're here. Well, whaddya know — the quiet park might just win the day.
