Animal Kingdom input needed...

I agree - the new Nemo show is great. As good or better than FOLK. There were only 2 or 3 performances on Tuesday. We happened upon the 3:00 show (none were listed on the blue and white insert) and then headed over for It's Tough to be a Bug (with a little shopping along the way). We got to the Tree of Life just before the 3:45 parade was about to pass. I crossed to go into Tough to be a Bug and then the ropes came up and the rest of my group was stuck on the other side of the street/parade. We weren't planning to watch the parade but it turned out to be a great place to view it. I was all alone in the entrance to Tough to be a Bug (along with a few CMs) and then when the parade ended there was plenty of time to walk down and be first in line. I am guessing they don't encourage people to stake out the spot I had but if you happen to time it as we did, it's a great place to watch. My friends on the other side of the parade didn't have a great spot until CMs adjusted the ropes halfway through the parade.

Also better to hit FOLK early. We were walking past it on Tues morning and they said it would be starting in 10 min and there was plenty of seating. 2 adults and child form our group went in and the other 2 adults went and got FPs for the Safari and then came back and sat together for the show. There was no problem saving the seats and the CM's actually showed us where the rest of the group was already sitting when we came in. AK was pretty empty on Tuesday morning so this might not work if the park is more crowded.

Everest was a cool ride but my friend and I did both get a little queezy.
 
Your schedule looks just about right! The only thing I would change (and 2nd what QueenT said) is moving the Festival of the Lion King up after the Safari.
 
QueenT said:
Also, if you go to the safari first, you can get a fast pass right away, then ride in the standby line, then go on the safari again later in the day with fast pass. We did this and it worked out very well, you might think it would just be the same thing twice, but different drivers, animals in different spots, different animals in view, well worth it if you like to look at animals close up.

I love to ride the safari more than once! I second this advice.
