What is the absolute first place you go or do when you enter the park? We always try to ride the safari first.
 
I like your questions. We head to Safari first, thene arly show of FOTLK
 

The first thing I do is walk through the "jungle" and look at the different types of Macaws, specifically the Hyacinth Macaws. Then, it on to EE.
 
Well, it used to be a fast walk to the Safari, but on the last trip it was an extremely fast walk/race walk to Expedition Everest. I grabbed fast passes and then we got in the line. What a great attraction!
 
I think this time the first thing we will do is run to EE for FP's. I think we did KS first last time though, followed by Kali, followed by a stroll around the park riding whatever and seeing whatever until we got to dinosaur!!
 
Usually we head straight to Primevil Whirl for multiple rides but I am guessing it will be EE this trip!
 
In the past we've speed walked to the KS. I grab a fastpass then when hop into the stand by line.

In the future we'll head to EE first. :cool1: I'll grab a fastpass then hop into the stand by line. After EE we'll hit KS. :cheer2:
 
Our first day we headed for Everest and got FP's and then enjoyed the scenery and headed toward Kali River Rapids, had some coffee, etc.

On the second day we had a breakfast at Donald's and then headed for Dinoland.
 
Used to be Tough to be a Bug, but now it's EE. After family rode it a few times without Fast Pass, they used the Fast Pass I got them (I don't ride). Then, we went to the Tiger Trail for the 9am opening.

We won't do that again! My precious tigers had just been fed, according to the CM, and at 9am, they do nothing but sleep under the trees in the shade. I could barely see them! So this isn't something we will do in the future. I love to see them playing in the water at the end of the trail!

We change depending on if we are staying at the AKL or not. If we are staying at the AKL then we head to Dinoland and ride Dinosaur first then makes our way to Asia to do Kali, the Tiger trail and then see flights of wonder before heading to Africa and the safari and gorilla trail.

If we are not staying at the AKL then we will head to the safari first and work our way over to Dinoland.

Now that EE is in the mix we will have to figure that out as we have ridden it twice but that was during the AP holder preview times so we altered our regular touring plan to fit in the AP preview times.

This applies the same for us. Can't wait for our next trip and the chance to experience EE for ourselves!
 
Run to grab a fast pass for Everest! Then ride Dinosaur while we wait for our time to come around :)
