NEW Fabulous Flotillas Take to the Waterways at Animal Kingdom
Our MickeyBloggers are kicking off this Sunday morning with a visit to Animal Kingdom where many beloved Disney Characters have returned! We’re kicking off our morning with some character sightings along the waterways! There are a handful of of fabulous flotillas happening at the theme parks each day and we managed to catch a few.
As you can see there are a handful of awesome character sightings that happen on the river. You can get great views from several locations throughout the parks but our favorite is the bridge from Discovery Island to the Africa section of the park!
First up is three of our favorite friends including Mickey, Minnie and Pluto.
There’s also a flotilla featuring Pocahontas and Meeko.
In conjunction with new meet and greets in Dinoland USA, There’s a new flotilla that features Scrooge McDuck and Launchpad McQuack.
Launchpad McQuack can be seen here waving to the crowd!
It’s so nice to see many of our favorite Disney characters returning to the theme parks!
We’ll be bringing you all of the wonderful new additions throughout the day.
We’ll also be meeting our favorite DuckTales characters over at Dinoland USA. Keep following along with us for further details.
Here we are getting a tip of the hat from Scrooge McDuck himself!
The boat really takes its time to stop so guests can get pictures and enjoy interactions with the characters.
We’re glad to see the up-close and personal character meet and greets return.
But, we’re also happy to see that Disney has opted to keep the flotilla as they are such a nice addition to our Magic Kingdom days!
Also on the schedule was an up flotilla.
This was supposed to feature both Russell and Dug from the beloved Pixar film UP but we only got Russell this morning.
That being said, it was still nice to see our favorite Wilderness Explorer!
He looks ready for a day of collecting more badges!
We miss Dug this morning but will catch him later at their meet and greet!
Our MickeyBloggers also managed to capture some awesome videos of our Disney friends on the waterways this morning.
Let’s take a look:
Above is a picture of Russell doing a little dance for the camera!
Here’s Russell coming around the corner into the Africa section of the park.
Above is an awesome video of Scrooge McDuck and Lightning McQueen emerging from underneath the bridge we are standing on.

We’ll be coming to you LIVE from the theme parks each and every week.
