Summary

On today’s Disney Podcast, we are ranking all of Animal Kingdom’s rides in two different ways. First, we rank all rides according to our preferences now and explain why and what we love (or don’t love) about each one. Then, we re-rank them all with the priority being what we would prefer if we were going with young kids and wanted to experience as many rides as we could with them. Enjoy!
