Disney World is a pretty fun place to hang out.
Okapi
That’s part of the reason why we’ve spent the last few days exploring the theme parks to bring YOU updates on all the latest changes. So, here’s a check-in on everything NEW in food, construction, and merchandise in Disney’s Animal Kingdom.
Animal Kingdom Food Updates
Anandapur Ice Cream Truck
First up, Anandapur Ice Cream Truck is now using a spinner holder to give cones to guests. That means no more cones served upside down in a cup. Woohoo!
Here’s how it works!
We also spotted that the Yeti Sundae and Everest Macaroons are gone now.
