Creator's Key Takeaways

I cannot get over this resort. I think this is a mistake. I'm in love.

This is the dream. This is the dream. Okay, I better go back. I keep getting distracted.

I'm going to take it a little bit more easy while I'm staying here. Because I splurged on this room instead of buying more park time.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓If you take a red-eye flight, consider staying up so you are awake when you land to help adjust to the time zone.

✓At airport security, look for multiple lines; sometimes side lines are empty while the middle is clogged.

YouTube Video Description↓

After a red-eye flight, I finally arrive at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge... and immediately understand why so many people are obsessed with this resort. In this vlog, I check into my savanna view room, spend way too much time watching animals, take advantage of Disney's free water park perk with a visit to Blizzard Beach, and enjoy a relaxing first day that feels very different from my usual park-focused Disney trips. I also try Sanaa for the first time (even though it was a kid's meal to-go) and finally cross Zebra Domes off my Disney foodie bucket list. If you've ever wondered whether Animal Kingdom Lodge is worth the splurge, this trip might convince you.
