April 4, 1999: Continuing with additions to Animal Kingdom, here is the prehistoric part of the park. DinoLand will take you down memory lane about 70 million years - back when they called it prehistory. Last time we looked, there were no live animal exhibits DinoLand, but there are places here that might make you think you are being ogled by an Iguanodon. You may feel like you're actually at an archaeological excavation, but don't be surprised when dinosaurs come to life!March 21, 1999: We got a new award
Today!: Check it out and take a look at the neat site that chose pansophist.com. More Animal Kingdom coming soon!February 25, 1999: It's Tough to be a Bug : A cross between Honey I Shrunk the Audience at Epcot's Future World and Muppet Vision
3-D4-D over at Disney's MGM Studios, Animal Kingdom's It's Tough to be a Bug takes the best of both and adds some more.This is a 3-D attraction you experience deep beneath the roots of The Tree of Life. So put on your bug eyes and sit down for a riotous presentation by the bugs of the world.
January 25, 1999: Kilimanjaro Safaris: The second and largest part of this Animal Kingdom addition includes 29 pages of Kilimanjaro Safaris.
With 28 fantastic photos, the Safari in the pouring rain, takes you from hip-wading Hippos to Baboon condos, across the Savannah, by Giraffes in the mist, gnus in the trees and an Elephant that flees. From A Baobab to Zebra, more animals were out in the rain than were in the bright hot Florida sun.
Future updates: More Animal Kingdom to come. More MGM scheduled, especially more Tower of Terror and more Indiana Jones. A look back at Journey Into Imagination in Epcot's Future World. More Tomorrowland at Magic Kingdom. More inside photos of rides and attractions. Stay tuned, the photos are endless.

January 4, 1999: Animal Kingdom: This is the first part of a huge addition. Animal Kingdom starts with 20 pages of the Tree of Life. This is going to be a real tribute because, if they thought they were going out on a limb for this, they have instead come up with their tour de force and have given something significant to the world. Safari in the rain coming soon.
Horizons: A few days ago a new poll went up here that asks if you want Horizons to close or not, as Disney has planned. The NO response has been overwhelming. If you want to tell Disney your thoughts about this (it seems like many of you think Disney is turning its back on the future), write:
Mr. George Kalogridis, President of Epcot, PO Box 10000, Lake Buena Vista, FL 32830-1000
