Ok, I'd like some feedback on this 2 day AK plan. Due to needing to add a day to my ticket, only day 1 has FP pre-booked. Day 2 may get FP after we get there. Goal - minimize walking while balancing wait times. ADR at Rainforest Cafe will not be changed and we must work around that. We are also going to attempt to earn all 31 badges for the Wilderness Explorers.
Here is what I have:
Overall plan - Day 1: Oasis, Asia, Dinoland, Discovery Island
Day 2: Africa, Rafiki's Planet Watch
Day 1:
Oasis Exhibits
Get Wilderness Explorer book
Discovery Island Trails
Maharaja Trails
Boneyard (not sure how much time we will spend here, will check it out, likely not too long)
Finding Nemo FP for 11am show
Rainforest Cafe ADR for 12pm
add time here for wilderness badges
Flights of Wonder 1:45pm show
45 min built in for wilderness badges
Discovery Island Character Landing - meet Pocahontas, not sure if we will meet others
Kali River Rapids FP at 4:05pm
Will use any filler time for pin trading, restroom breaks, finishing badges, shopping, etc.
Day 2:
Do Rafiki first with possiblity of seeing something exciting at the vet lab (whatever it's called)
Be at rope drop and head to train stop
If time, browse at animals or do a badge or pin trade.
9:30 ride train to Rafiki
9:30 - 12:00 See any vet procedures, Affection Section, See Gi-tar Dan, Habitat Habit, Conservation Station, earn 6 wilderness explorer badges, any character meets, ride train back. We have not been here before and plan to try to see everything.
12:00- lunch (bringing own so this is flexible)
12:30 Pangani Trail (not sure relation of locations to things within Africa so not sure if my order is the best)
1:00 - Tam Tam Drummers of Harambe
1:30 - mix in Africa badges for Wilderness Explorers in between items for Africa
2:00 Burdika Band
2:30 Kilomanjaro Safaris
3:00 Festival of the Lion King if open
4:00 finish up badges, pin trading
Want to see Dug and Russell if they are here also.
Thanks in advance for the feedback. If it matters, easywdw has us going on crowd 9/8 days and touringplans says they will be 7/9.
