It's awfully hard to beat something that sends you backwards in the dark at 40mph.

This was tricky for me but I picked the KS because you see something a little different every time. But a close second for me is EE and the Festival of the Lion King. I love the thrill of EE and the lion king is a very entertaining show.

EE of course but the trails are a great way to see the animals which is what AK is really about.:mickey:

I absolutely love EE, but I voted for Lion King, because it got such an emotional response form me. I don't know why, but I got all choked up and that makes it #1 for me, even though EE is the one I go back to the most.

Either Kilimanjaro or Lion King. I have never done EE because I am a single mom with a 2 (3 on Friday!) year old so I can't exactly do the child swap and she obviously can't ride it.

I picked EE because I love thrill rides, but Festival of the Lion King is a close second - a totally AMAZING show of what is one of my favorite Disney movies.

The walking trails and the safari were great ways to see the animals, which as was pointed out, is what AK is truly about.

I'm the one who picked Maharadja's Jungle Trail.

I loved being able to see Tigers and bats up close, plus the bird zone is absolutely incredible. I saw the biggest pigeon ever (as tall as my arm is long !), and interacted with a lot of very nice and knowledgeable CMs.

The highlight of this ? In the zone where there are gorillas and various other animals, I saw a beautiful red bird, and I immediately fell in love with this beautiful exotic animal that I was sure was very rare.

I approached a CM and asked her what this bird was, fully expecting to be told that it was a unique specimen coming directly from Africa, and that they spent long months trying to make it feel at home.

The CM just looked at the bird for three seconds, then told me, smiling, 'Well, that is a pretty common bird in Florida. I expect he just stopped by to have a drink, and will leave us shortly.' :oops::blush:

It's Tough to be a Bug. I love the walk to get inside and I love the waiting area. I'm a sucker for a 3d movie:blush:

I picked ITTBAB I'm not a big fan of this park and it was one of my faves from there. I didn't pick EE back we have a coaster here the whole ride is backwards so the little backwards part of EE just didn't do anything for me (although the line is awesome)

Ok, this is a tough one just like MK. I like everything! I did pick Everest, just because of it being unique and I am a thrill seeker for sure. I love everything though. The safari, the shows, and definitely Tough to be a bug. Heck I love Primieval Whirl. I like it all. I would fail at choosing a favorite!

I voted for KS but only because my entire family likes it and only myself and daughter like EE. The Lion King still gives me chills every time.

Everest might be the best ride in all WDW, although I kind of wish they had left out the Yeti part, that is what prevents my daughter from riding it...
We always do the Safari, and Primevil Whirl us usually the stop after EE.

I don't like Dinosaur...the sounds freak me out, and we've stopped going on the Rapids...You really have to be dressed for it, or have a spare set of clothes handy.

I voted for Tough to be a Bug only because I haven't been able to ride Everest yet! I like coasters and I'm sure that will be my favorite - if I can ever get on the darn thing :mad:

I really like EE a lot. I had the good luck to ride it back to back during my visit in November. I made a bee line for ride when the park opened and got there before the crowds. It's very smooth and does nto jerk my body or my head around. Those are my two complaints about BTMR and RRC.

The FOTLK would be a close second. I love that show.:thumbsup:

I would have voted for E:E, were it not for the fact that when I last went on KS we saw a newborn giraffe and his parents walk right up to us..it was so incredible! :)

I voted for EE and Bugs Life. But I would also throw in the Finding Nemo Show. Saw it for the first time on my last trip and loved it. I have to admit, with a son joining the Marines this summer I cried all the way through because I totally related to Nemo's dad. :blush:

Kilimanjaro Safari so far. This will be my first trip back since EE has been open and roller coasters don't bother me, so I can see where this is going, right to EE. LOL

Everest is absolutely awesome! :coaster:

You should have added the Nemo stage show to your list. That is VERY good as well :thumbsup:

I definitley love the thrill of EE, but I voted for the Kilimanjaro Safari because you just never know what you're going to get.

The bus ride back to our resort. :funny:


Just kidding.

As you can tell I'm not big AK fan. EE does make it hard to skip AK altogether like we used to in the past.
