Overall review of animal kingdom?

I'd disagree with the last post - we love the parade in AK and think it's one of the best ones - certainly streets ahead of the MGM parade.

Stand by the bridge into Africa and you get to see the parade twice

Have to agree about the parade at AK, it is our favourite, second to MK, the music is superb. We are biased, though, as AK is one of our favourite, a lot more relaxed that the other parks.

Yes Animal Kingdom is a great park and can be alot more relaxed but definately not relaxed in the months of July and August as the lines for Kali River Rapids and countdown to exstintion were massive.
As you are going in March it should not be to bad theres not that much to do there as i only spend around half a day there but its still a really great theme park.

Never seen the parade in AK....its either been cancelled, or we've left by the time it starts (we're not big fans of the park).

We'll have to make a point of waiting for it next year.

It seems you either love or hate AK. Our family thought it was pretty dull, though maybe we were "parked out". We thought the balance wasn't right, and that if you're going reality (with real animals) you shouldn't mess up things like the safari trip with corny storylines and actions. Real animals are dramatic enough, though the views of them were pretty disappointing on the day we went.

We also got so soaked on the rapids ride we were still wet when we got home despite temperatures in the nineties and our ride being first thing in the morning!

Its all a fantastic achievement, but for us it didn't quite reach the levels of the other parks - except Sea World which was dire and dated.
