Originally Posted By Mickeymouseclub Pitapan for the commercial and lots of new interactive fun go to disneyworld.com then the calendar section for Animal Kingdom. Click onto Embark on the Expedition(right of the screen)then to the left click on Videos and More. On the bottom of screen you have 3 choices "Discovery" is about the 4 networks Everest the Experience starting 4/9 Sunday 9pm Eastern time(or WDW time) on Discovery Channel, Animal Planet Science Channel. The next choice is "Watch Fletch" and the finalchoice is "TV Commercial". The Watch Fletch is hysterical. 8 different episodes telling the story ofd this guy who plans to climb the newest mountain just discovered.One of the episodes someone offers him a Churro to eat. Anyway as you watch each episode you receive a clue that must be answered before you go to the next episode and in the end you will be able to play a game.All of this takes some time but it is so worth it.

Originally Posted By macnak Yes, I hope the ride is better than the hype and almost anything can be better than Mr Iger's excitement. He makes George Bush look like a great debater. I hope the lack of ability to read a speech is made up with great leadership, and new exciting ideas.
Originally Posted By NikkiLOVESMickey I rode Expedition Everest at the beginning of March, and I thought it was a top notch experience. The Yeti is fantastically done, and the themeing in the queue is unbelievable. There are so many little things to look at in the queue, I'd love to be able to just take 30-45 minutes to explore every inch of it.
