Today we are starting the day off at the Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park. This park was the fourth one built at the Walt Disney World Resort, and opened on April 22, 1998.

In the park there are tons of animals, a safari ride through the park and tons of other fun rides!

In 2008 the park was ranked the 5th most visited theme park in the United States and ranked number 8 in the world.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom theme park focuses on three types of animals: those that exist today, those that previously existed, but are now extinct, and those that exist only in legend.

If you have been to the Animal Kingdom we want to know what your favorite ride is!
