Garsh, folks — Animal Kingdom's openin' bright and early at 8:00 AM this Sunday, October 18, and ol' Goofy says that's where I'd start my day. Go straight to Flight of Passage first — it's the park's biggie, and its single-pass Lightning Lane is reported as the cheapest headliner around at roughly $11–15, though day-of app pricing is the only live number. The park closes at 7:00 PM, so it pairs up purty well with a late EPCOT or Hollywood Studios evening. Then, when you're good and hungry, here's Remy's Bite of the Day: the Mango Pie at Yak & Yeti Restaurant in Asia, $13.99 on the current menu — a local-favorite dessert to sweeten up that afternoon. No new popcorn buckets in the last day, so keep watchin' the carts!
