We hope you’re feeling in the Christmas spirit this week!
Animal Kingdom Christmas
Disney World is certainly diving right into the holiday season. We’ve already seen decorations arrive in Magic Kingdom AND Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Before today, there were only a few baubles in Disney’s Animal Kingdom — but that’s ALL CHANGED.
When we arrived at Disney’s Animal Kingdom this morning, we were greeted by the sight of the BEAUTIFUL Animal Kingdom Christmas tree outside of the gates! Wooooohooo!

This towering tree is a staple of Christmas decorations in the park, so spotting it got us excited to see what other decorations might be around.

When you see the tree in person, we recommend taking a close look at the very cool Animal Kingdom-themed decorations in the branches.

We also love the presents and snowglobes laid out around the base!
