Disney prides itself on attention to detail and authenticity. Each attraction in a Disney park is themed to evoke a place, an era, a culture that is unique and instantly recognizable.
Here are some shots taken in the queue for the Kilimanjaro Safari at Disney’s Animal Kingdom in Orlando. The real Kilimanjaro is a mountain in a national park in Tanzania, just over the border from Kenya. The Serengeti is close by.
Yep, I’d say Disney did a good job with the authenticity – it’s definitely Africa hot in Orlando much of the year, especially in the summer! Make sure you’ve got something cool to drink while waiting in the queue.

That way, you’ll never miss a post. 🙂
So cool! I haven’t been to Animal Kingdom but it’s first on my list for the next (hopefully soon!) Orlando trip. Tink, your photos always make me see things in a new way. Great shots!
They must have one creative crew to come up with so many details to so many themes in such a large place. Something to really be appreciated.
Aw, thanks! Animal Kingdom is my second-favorite park right behind EPCOT. If you love wildlife and nature, you will dig Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

Martha, I think you are right – it’s all outdoors, there’s lots of vegetation stopping the breezes, and not enough fans in the queue. And I don’t think even ONE of them is a mister fan!

Would love to tour the place with you sometime, Gayle. Let me know when you’re coming 😉
