Friday Flashback — Animal Kingdom’s Block Party

Welcome to another Friday Flashback! Thanks, as always, goes out to my friend Deb from Focused on the Magic! Without her hosting this, I probably wouldn’t be doing these posts!

Today’s flashback is of a special event that we experienced in August, 2007, over at the Animal Kingdom!  This was, unfortunately, a short running experience, which was a shame, because it was so cool!  Picture in your mind Disney’s Animal Kingdom being open for evening extra magic hours.  While you and your family are enjoying the extra hours, you head on over to Dinoland, U.S.A., because your daughter loves that area, and when you get there, you realize that a block party is going on with some of your favorite Disney characters!  That’s what happened to us, and these pictures are the end result.  Enjoy!

And again!

Now that you’ve seen my photos, why don’t you take a look at all of the other entries over at Focused on the Magic?!  Just click on the button to head there, and thanks for stopping by!

About Mike Ellis

Mike has been a Disney fan since his first trip to the Magic Kingdom in 1979 when he was 11 years old. Since that first trip, he has seen parks open, lands close, and attractions come and go, but one thing remains the same, his love for Disney is as strong as ever.

His Disney adventures caused him to start My Dreams of Disney because he wanted to document for his family and friends all of the special Disney Memories he has enjoyed with his family, and since that first post in 2010, Mike's hobby has become his passion!

Now a Travel Consultant with Pixie Vacations for over nine years, Mike has helped many of his readers plan and have incredible Disney vacations of their own. Check us out on Facebook and Twitter.
