New to the DIS board, but not at all new to the love of Disneyland~ hello from Sacramento! I jumped in this year because of a conversation with my daughter. One day, while heading to the park(s), she commented that I was "maximum happy". When I asked her to elaborate, she cited all of our past visits as fun (in large part) because I was always so relaxed and happy. I thought about that~and she is right! Disneyland, even crowded as crowds can be, brings out the best in me. Thinking about sharing my tips and advice with others makes me smile. I have a pretty darn rewarding "day" job already, but the thought of being on the Disney mom panel seriously makes my heart happy. Good luck to all!!!

I'm seeing a lot of votes for Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge as people's favorite Disney World Resort. That makes me pretty excited as it's on our family's short list for resorts to stay at in 2019-2020 when we are planning to make 2-3 trips over that period of time. We already love the food over at AKL having eaten at Sanaa and Boma and my wife is dying to try Jiko. If any cares to throw out their pro tips for their preferences on the best accommodations at AKL I'd be very interested to hear them!

Thanks in advance.

We stayed at AKL twice in the past year, and both times in a standard room. However, many of the standard rooms also have a partial view of the savannahs, and we were lucky both times. The first time our room ended up overlooking a public viewing area, so there were always animals there (because there was food there). The second time we didn't do online check in and asked if it was possible to get a partial view. We ended up with an awesome room overlooking a "people pen" (evacuation space), which was just as good as the other savannah rooms nearby. But there are also still a number of standard rooms that overlook the parking lot...

Other important things to know:
-You can buy Zebra Domes in The Mara.
-There's a shuttle van that will run you between Jambo House and Kidani Village. You just wait out by the front entrances, and it runs back and forth continuously.

Do you have kids? I have a preschooler, and he loved the splash pad area at Kidani, using the night vision goggles, and roasting marshmallows.
