Wow, Animal Kingdom Lodge is supposed to be one of the nicest ones on Disney World property! Have you been before? Definitely pick up the pamphlet that talks about extended "Magic Hours" for people staying at a Disney resort - I think the extended evenings are best. Epcot after hours was fantastic. I liked Animal Kingdom a lot - the "safari" was great - I'd never seen elephants, lions or giraffes up close before! The Lion King Show is cutesy. I got such a kick out of It's Tough To Be a Bug, but since you're from Cali, if you've seen it at Cali Adventure, it's nothing new.
