 Hey friends today, we are hanging out at Disney's Animal Kingdom It's been a while since I rode Avatar Flight of Passage and since the new movie Avatar 2 is coming out in December I figured it would be fun to come out and ride it today if the wait time isn't too long And then also they put out a bunch of villains themed cupcakes I see that they have scar here So I figured we grab one of those ride some rides eat some food and have a beautiful Animal Kingdom kind of day. Anyways, let's go do this As you guys might have seen I'm wearing my flannel and that's because it is in the 50s today What an awesome feeling to have a nice little chilly Animal Kingdom kind of day because normally I always have to start off The video by saying Animal Kingdom is the hottest park, but not today. I like the breeze It's definitely chilly enough outside to be wearing a flannel and I'm still wearing shorts and crocs I mean I don't even own pants yet, but it's so funny growing up in Pennsylvania and it being cold all the time now I get so excited like it's a chilly day and I'm like I gotta go to the parks like I get all dressed up ready to go I think I'm gonna start off the day by making my way over to creature comfort so I can get myself a coffee I like to have a coffee when I browse around the parks. It's really nice, especially on a nice little fall day On top of wanting to ride flight of passage I also wouldn't mind doing expedition Everest maybe catching a show or sitting down and grabbing lunch somewhere Maybe at a sit-down location or a quick service kind of just go with the flow with things, you know But first we need the coffee Some days I'm in a Starbucks mood and some days I'm in a Joffrey's mood, but today I'm all about creature comforts Pumpkin spice latte acquired Cheers Tastes like the weather right now Enough of the coffee business now. I want to make my way over to Asia And a lot of people don't know that you don't actually have to walk around the Tree of Life You can actually walk right through it right before you hit the Africa bridge right here There's a little pathway and this will actually connect you all the way over to Asia and it's really really beautiful You get a great shot of the Tree of Life and I love walking this way Seriously, this is such a vibe just to be walking around the Tree of Life drinking a pumpkin spice latte on a chilly day I'm loving it right now It also feels like I got the whole place to myself There's hardly anyone back here And this is what I was talking about when you get to see this beautiful view of the Tree of Life Right here as we turn the corner Look at that Isn't that awesome you we're actually going to go right underneath it We're going to go right underneath it and then cut out and come out at the exit of it's tough to be a bug But beautiful. Isn't she a beaut Clark? Another thing that's really cool about walking this pathway is you get to see A lot of the animals that are on the Tree of Life that you normally wouldn't see and some of them are actually very Frightening in the back end I think that's why they put them back here is because they could be a little scary to kids And this is gives you like a perfect shot Some of these are just so cool. Look at this snake right here You get a good look at his face and then over here. I think we have like a little crab Is that what it is? You got little pinchers right there? Let me see if you can see them And then there's a squid like isn't that crazy? Look at this squid You see it going all the way up and wrapping its tentacles around the tree That's so cool and these are on the back end and this is our little pathway right here And just like that we are in Asia and uh, let's see if we can go ride expedition Everest Try to use this single rider line. That's the way to go. You know, I mean you don't want to wait in line Especially if I'm all by myself Does anyone else have a certain phrase that makes you spontaneously break out and song or dance I can't be the only one but here we are expedition Everest. Let's go see how long the single rider line is and Uh, let's go get that yeti. Let's go get that yeti Looks like the single rider line is uh a no wait. Look at that. A no wait. We're just gonna walk right on I feel so fancy right now All right, thank you Everest will certainly get the blood flowing for you. I love that ride. Like it's a It's a have to every time you come to the park. You gotta go ride expedition Everest Especially when you don't have to wait like you no wait Like if I wanted to go ride right now, I can go ride again and not wait Which honestly I might do a little bit later on I might ride it again. Who knows? As I got off expedition Everest. Look at this. You can see Russell and Doug actually come floating by A lot of people say I sound like him Now I think it's time. We grab ourselves a little snack and over at flametree barbecue They have the scar cupcake. So the villainous like scar cupcake and I'm excited to try it. It looks really cool I think it has like cocoa pebbles on it and it's red velvet We'll have to cut it open to see what it's like, but from the outside it looks really really fun And here it is the scar cupcake red velvet cupcake with toasted marshmallow filling Marshmallow chocolate frosting chocolate pebbles white chocolate flames and an edible icing image of scar an edible Icing image of scar and it looks like he's hiding behind the bushes there. It looks really really nice I can't wait to cut it open or cut right down the middle five dollars and 99 cents though What do you guys think? I mean, I think I might like it. I'm I'm a little excited the past two cupcakes that I've had here at animal kingdom have been a Huge improvement to like the stigma of disney cupcakes because this one I could tell already It's not all frosting like it's actually a good equal parts cupcake and frosting and the same thing goes for the other one That I had I think at pizza farry. So they might be changing things up a little bit All right. I'm gonna try to do this as delicately as possible. I'm gonna rip the the paper right down the middle Look at that red velvet Look at this This looks really really good I'm excited I'm losing my I'm losing my cocoa pearls though Now we're gonna have to cut right down the middle from here. I think maybe I'll cut down the side there I don't want to ruin scars a little face there. We'll go like this This is not working I think I'm gonna butcher this Oh boy We destroyed this cupcake. I think it's frozen. I am so good. Oh, there we go. Look at that Amazing Honestly, I do like red velvet. I do love marshmallow too, but uh, I don't know about this one I mean, we'll have to go. We'll see how it goes though. I'm gonna save scarf for last You always eat the little candy last. I mean, I mean maybe some people like eat it first though Oh, I see a bird attacking people These birds will attack you just be warned. Look at her. She's got to scare them away. Go on get Pa said we can't keep you anymore. Go on get Get those birds out of there Honestly, I really do believe my cupcake is frozen because I am holding it upside down at this moment But look at that. It's it's it's upside down. I'm gonna probably just eat the cake I don't know if I want frozen fill icing right now at the moment, but I do like the marshmallow in the center there So here we go Red velvet's good Might as well try the icing though Yeah, it's frozen I met up with kristin right down main street and uh, she's gonna try the cupcake And let me know what she thinks. I don't like white chocolate though. You don't like white chocolate. No Yeah A little disappointing. Yeah Now I had a really good cupcake over at pizza farry. You should try that one I no, no, no, this was the other day. It was really good though I forget what it was, but I liked it a lot this one I think maybe if it wasn't frozen it might do pretty good You know what I mean, but look you can still see it. It's the icing is like It's rock hard rock hard icing is no good As I was sitting here enjoying my cupcake and looking at all the birds I noticed these really strange post right here is a python eating a mouse Look at you see that it's literally It's got a mouse in his mouth, doesn't it? Yeah, there's mice all around and there's mice all around it That is craziness and then on this side. We've got another squid. It's a squid post I mean, I kind of like the squid one, but is this squid one this squid one's eating something too. It looks like This is some really cool stuff right here. I mean, we don't need any of this. Oh, look here's another snake eating the mouse right here Look at this a better look That is craziness. How come I've never noticed this? It's got his little things too. That is so awesome Oh, wait a second. Is that a is that a rabbit or is that a little mouse? I guess enough with the cupcake business. I mean, it's okay. Like I said, I like the red velvet Probably the most part, but I really had high expectations Like I was really excited for this one and now I think I'm gonna maybe make our way over to Flight of passage one last bite though got a little marshmallow a little cocoa puff on there That's the way Before we make our way over to Flight of passage. I stopped back at creature comforts because Kristen is going to have her first pumpkin spice latte I'm a pumpkin cream cold brew gal, but um A little psl. I figured it's time on this beautiful fall day to try to try the warm beverage Yeah, I have a pumpkin spice latte. Maybe do some gym tan and laundry later gtl. Yes gtl psl. Cheers also Fun fact, I did want to point this out Kristen was just like wow I've never seen you in a flannel shirt Where's your roosevelt's shirt and I was like it is this is a roosevelt's flannel shirt and it's a roosevelt nightmare before christmas Flannel shirt and I love it. Let me show you the design on this and if you guys like nightmare before christmas You're gonna love this shirt It's the regular It's the regular flannel But if you look on the bottom here, we've got warmsworth frogs breath deadly nightshade And I am obsessed you guys check the link in the description if you guys want to buy it And it's 20 off using my code PMM 20 for your first order, but I love it Let's start making our way into the valley of mora and you can already hear All of the sounds of pandora and I love it It's been a while normally when I come to animal kingdom if I'm not riding flight of passage I don't even come over here like I like animal kingdom on its own without pandora, but I do love pandora and today it's uh Flight of passage kind of day Ah, can you hear it? Makes me want to have a nice little bonfire It sounds like you know a bonfire night in pa, you know in a cornfield It looks like the standby wait time is 60 minutes for flight of passage and walking around down here All I do is smell a sultini canteen So we might actually end up getting a bite to eat there afterwards. It smells so good I want some roast beef and chicken, but first we're gonna ride Waiting in line for flight of passage is actually really cool because you get to look at all these beautiful sights Like look at these mountains the floating mountains And did you know there's some band cheese actually hanging up there? It's really cool. I'm gonna try to zoom in for you and show you I don't have like a super zoom, but you can see them a little bit hanging there And I think that's so awesome. It's really cool. And we're about to ride on the back of some of them right now Making our way to the link chambers now the last time I rode this ride was for the vip tour day the video I didn't Uh, I think it was a couple months ago. So it's nice to be back again They're calling us up. It's our time Upstairs and oh we're going up c3 going upstairs Oh, I never get to go up on the upstairs part. I'm so excited the top levels are the best Oh everyone's dancing Oh, I matched up that's me right here. I think it looks like me too I can smell the ride already and I'm so excited Definitely one of the best smelling rides at Walt Disney World and there's a lot of great smelling rides Looks like this is us Kristen pointed out how great this is for backing your cracking your back Backing your crack cracking your back Backing your crack A couple of cool things to point out They have little air pushing out right here to really add to the effect that you're flying and also in between your legs The uh, ekron actually breathes So as you're flying you can feel the ekron breathing in between your legs and it's really fun It really does if you just close your eyes and ride this you don't even have to look at anything And you'll really feel like you are and something like special or riding the back of an ekron You can just like close my eyes and put my hands up and just Absolutely me this smells the feels because everything it's like such a sensational experience and I love it and That's why I mean soren is my all-time favorite ride and a lot of people say this is like soren on steroids I feel like that's the thing that they always say But soren is more a nostalgic feeling to me like you know what I mean? It's it's more closer to my heart, but this is such an epic epic ride I was thinking of actually going to saltouli canteen But Kristen has a landeries card Landeries card So we can just show up at yak and yeti without a reservation And I think that's what we're gonna do have a little yak and yeti a little yak a little yeti Oh, yeah, you'll have a yak. I'll have a yeti. I like that I think scrooge mcduck is on his way over here. I just heard them announce that they're uh making their way down So we want to say hi real quick It's so funny because there's nobody over here. So scrooge mcduck is just gonna be basically waving at us Actually both of them are look it There's no one here to say hi except for us Hi Normally when you see like characters and they're waving. Oh, he gave me a tip a tip of the hat. Thank you Thank you Oh wow I love it. Have fun. Thank you scrooge. Look at the money bags. He's got money bags on his boat Normally whenever you see like a cavalcade come by and they're waving you have to wonder are they waving at me? But when you're all by yourself, they are waving at you. Oh now they're playing duck tails You do a whoo But wait, there's more here comes pocahontas and mico and what is pocahontas pointing out to mico there? Look how close we're gonna get to them. Oh, wow. Look at that Thank you, pocahontas. Hi mico I'll give you food. He's hungry. Bye. Bye. I'll never forget you Look at it. He's still we're still locking eyes right now. We're still Bye Did you guys see mico? He would not look away. Like it was so funny. He was rubbing his stomach I think he wanted me to give him food But he was like way down and I didn't break eye contact and he didn't either And we just kept on looking at each other and like he was just drifting away I wish like I could add like some sad music into there because it was really sad And he was just like me food reminded me of gracey like when gracey wants food She looks at me the same way mico just did speaking of that. I think we're gonna go get some food now If I could I would go back and get mico something And now we have made it to yak and yeti conditioned air find foods and drinks And kristin's just gonna walk in and be like I would like a table, please I'm here table me I'm not too sure how the lander's card works But if you are a lander's member you don't have to have a reservation You can just show up and they give you priority seating and like I said kristin has that and that's good for rainforest cafe t-rex a lot of great restaurants And uh, yeah, we're gonna get something to eat. I'm gonna try something different this time though Take a look at this. I never noticed yak and yeti was voted top two best theme park restaurant by usa today Readers choice 2022 number two. Well, that's a that's a big claim to fame right there Look at that top two restaurant top two kind of like uh mythos over at universal studios, orlando But those are two separate companies usa today readers choice. That's a big company right there. So that's uh A mighty fine accomplishment by yak and yeti Last time I was here. I got some chinese chicken kristin said yeah, you got the honey chicken That's what you know chicken of china the chinese chicken. You have a drumstick in your brain starts Clicking Clicking I don't know what this is from. I don't know what you're referencing. Wait, what?

Let me know if you guys know where that song comes from or the name of the band Let me know in the comments use the comment section below to tell kristin the band that sings that song Here is a look at the menu. I'm not too sure what to get this time I mean there is a lot of good offerings I might want to get some ribs though the ribs do look pretty good and also they have a kobe beef burger Everyone says the kobe beef burger is good Kind of torn but you know if you're eating at the second best theme park restaurant. You got lots of choices Just like that. We are at our table landry's card coming in. What was it three minutes? Three minute wait. I love it Also looks like they have a new menu journey into the far east And it's got some good stuff on here a Thai lemongrass shrimp, which I'm thinking about getting pork belly They've got mangolia beef a Thai basil chicken These all look amazing honestly, but I'm all about the shrimp shrimp and business today For starters, we ended up getting the Korean fried chicken and this comes with some maple sauce on there And I'm excited. It looks really good and uh little chicken tendies. What are these noodles called? I don't know, but I like them I used to think they were just decoration, but now I found out you can eat them. Look at that So here we go Korean fried chicken Wow That is so good These are really good and it's a shareable appetizer. Oh, look at this long one and I think they hand-bread them too There were six tendies six tendies. I think they're definitely hand-breaded 15 dollars and 99 cents though for it And I like it. I like the gochu maple syrup. Is that how you say gochu? Gochu chang gochu chang gochu chang chickeny china the chinese chicken The rice straws are really good too. It reminds me of like a little muncho chips. You guys ever have munchos before? Holy moly, I was not expecting this when it came to the shrimp. Look at this. Look at the size of these shrimp Look at that The big is the shrimp from the bow house. That is ridiculous And he got some nice little corn in there, rice. I am so excited. This is a huge meal I was worried that the size wasn't gonna be good, but This is good. This is gonna be good. And then what'd you get? I got the pork I'm not even gonna try and pronounce it the pork A pork bigity bong Bim bim bop, bim bim bim bop Also on the special menu. It looks good. That broccoli looks amazing though.

All right, here we go. We're just going right on in The lemongrass is so amazing. Now I gotta try the rice with the corn, but I can't get over that shrimp I think they give you six of them, but they're gigantic and they're just so meaty So so meaty and the lemongrass just adds such a nice touch to it This menu has become something else. I tell you what I really do love it here I am interested in trying, uh, Kristen's broccoli here fried broccoli. Look at this Oh my lord.
