Here's an upbeat piece of news for Animal Kingdom day: I have heard from multiple sources that on Extra Magic Hour mornings at Animal Kingdom (and also at Hollywood Studios), the parks are opening 30 minutes ahead of the published time. That means you should try and drag yourself out of bed to make a 7:30 am rope drop on Saturday. Nothing like a Flight of Passage to clear away the cobwebs after a short night. As an added bonus, sunrise is at 7:34 am that day.
