Disney4me Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 Hey DFB friends! We’re back with more of what’s new at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. Tree of Life Animal Kingdom is currently celebrating Earth Day, and they also released a, well, confusing (and expensive!) spirit jersey. Check out all the news here! Animal Kingdom Food Updates Satu’li Canteen removed plexiglass barriers in the food pickup area, and we also noted that they had white cups for water. No plexiglass Satu’li also changed their beer tap handles to standard logos. In the past, the Terrapin taps had Pandora-themed handles. Tap handle changes Make a note that Cinnamon Rolls at Creature Comforts can be heated for 11 seconds if you’d prefer your roll warm, and they are then served on a plate instead of in a paper bag. Just ask a Cast Member! Cinnamon Roll Now onto construction! Animal Kingdom Construction Updates The Polar Bear Sand Sculpture had blue added to the Disney+ logo on the sculpture. Sand sculpture updates When it comes to Expedition Everest, the ride still hasn’t reopened from its lengthy refurbishment closure, although it was originally scheduled to reopen mid-April. Expedition Everest Earlier this week we were told by a Cast Member that it might reopen sometime over the next two weeks, but we’re keeping an eye on this ride in hopes that we see it running again soon! Expedition Everest closure could be longer than expected. Restaurantosaurus still has the left deck gated off, so you might have to find an alternative entrance on your visit.
