Pandora and Disney's Animal Kingdom - Episode 111 of The Disney Exchange Podcast

The show starts with breaking news from me, live at Walt Disney World. Are you ready for this? Hold onto your hats!

My wife and I requested to change rooms at Disney's Boardwalk Resort. 

Earth shattering I know. 

As promised the area we were in... 

and the bulkhead.

Other photos of the studio at the Boardwalk Villas.

I share some of our experiences from the first day of our vacation, such as some of the wonderful food offerings at Epcot's International Festival of the Arts, such as the Trio of Savory Croissant Doughnuts. 

We met Heather Brainerd and her husband Rich!

Heather, Barbie, me, Rich

We met listener and long time blog friend Gaylin at Disney's Hollywood Studios.

 Me, Barbie and Gaylin

I preferred the old Star Wars: Symphony in the Stars show to the new Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular, but that could be because we didn't have the best view for the fireworks, which are now off to the right of the Theater, and a tree blocked our view. 

We talk a very long time about clothing before Lisa decides to move the show along.

After I leave for Disney Springs, Lisa and Dave carry on the show, discussing our main topic;
How will the opening of Pandora change Disney's Animal Kingdom, such as siphoning crowds away from traditionally popular attractions, and conversely, Tiffin's, which is relatively unknown at the moment will be very popular.

They speculate on the new ride capacities, wait times, gift shop offerings, and dining options.

Please share your opinions on Pandora and Avatar!
