It’s not very often that new attractions will open at Walt Disney World let alone a whole new land! Well, that is what’s getting ready to happen with the opening of Pandora at Disney’s Animal Kingdom on May 27th, 2017! After watching the movie Avatar and then hearing the news that Disney was going to somehow incorporate this into Animal Kingdom, I’ve been very excited. The movie itself is visually stunning and the special effects are amazing. Now, combine that with the magic of Disney and this new land is sure to be a huge hit!

It was pretty amazing to see the floating mountains in the Disney sky and try to imagine what the rest of Pandora would look like. At nighttime, the jungle will […]
