Hope everyone keeping safe and well
Joining the fun at the YC for the 1st time....Scheduled for Jan 30-Feb 6th, 2017 and flying solo once again. As hip and back problems have hit far too early in my "pedal to the metal" go for it life, I am once again forced to rent a scooter (Buena Vista, most likely as they are outstanding in service) and wondered what would be my best room requests. I would like to be close to the lobby and I've booked a garden view. I would hate to be barreling down a hallway and run some unsuspecting fellow Dis'er over, God forbid. Please add me to the list and happy to meet you' all!
I don't mean to sound insensitive to travelers, employees, and residents who are being impacted by the hurricane but my mind always turns to the animals.
My mind is telling me that Disney/Animal Kingdom must have a system/plan in place to shelter the animals. Right?
Most likely they have off site facilities for the animals. We just took the safari ride on Tuesday and the lions were in their off site facility at the time, so I know they have them.I don't mean to sound insensitive to travelers, employees, and residents who are being impacted by the hurricane but my mind always turns to the animals.

Well this hurricane really put a wrench in things. May have to cancel trip. Supposed to fly in on the 11th. Going to wait until Saturday night to hear how things are. We booked our flight on reward points so will get those back and supposed to check into BC on the 14th, so can cancel 5 days out without penalty.

If you've ever taken the train over to Rafiki's planet watch they show you the buildings where the animals are kept. They look like pretty substantial concrete structures so I'm sure they'll be safe I think they even bring all or most of them in every night to sleep in their "barns". Disney wouldn't want to risk the animals' lives- think of the PR nightmareMy daughters were asking this very same question today... they were both so worried about all the animals and if they would be kept safe!
Has anyone else noticed that when looking to book on Disney's site, the Deluxe resorts now say "From $307 per night," when it was only a few days ago that it said from $297?
I just noticed the bump this morning.
Checking in from the Beach Club Villas.

Wanted to post some pictures of the hurricane party. Truly having great time!
