What’s up, DFB friends?

It’s so pretty here!

We are BACK in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, saying hello to all the animals, walking around one of the most beautiful theme parks ever, and spending some time chasing down a dino! But while we were there, we checked in to see what’s new, so let’s get on with some updates!

Animal Kingdom Merchandise Updates

Island Mercantile

We found some cool new blinged-out t-shirts at Island Mercantile. There’s a Minnie Mouse one…

Minnie all blinged out

…and a Mickey one!

Mickey all blinged out

These shirts are $39.99 each.

Check Out These Shirts at Disney World That Made Us Seriously LOL!

Yak & Yeti Bhaktapur Market

We found a HUGE stuffed lion here (this isn’t new, but it’s really cool) — but here, this lion is $100. However, we looked it up online and found it for half that price. Oh, Disney…

It almost looks real!

Anyway, the lion is made by Melissa & Doug.

Wanna get this lion waaaaay cheaper?! Click here!

Animal Kingdom Attraction Updates

Expedition Everest

Y’all — we LOVE finding little details hidden in ride queues, and we just noticed a cabinet in the Expedition Everest line full of stuffed yetis. And one is wearing a Mickey hat! We love it!

He’s got a Mickey hat!

Check it out for yourself — you can find the cabinet in Mr. Toshi’s Shop right after you walk through the tea garden.
