Thanks

There are three jumping fish. When you see the movement, keep looking at that spot. Each fish jumps in one direction then reverses and jumps in the opposite direction at exactly the same spot. The kids will love it.

Orangemanshow,
The fish aren't real. They are mechanical, like the original Jungle Cruise animals.

sitting on patio of the hungry bear watching the canoes, twain and columbia, and all the ducks.
riding the twain when the little dixie band is on board. not sure if it is a scheduled thing though.
watching the pearly band when they finish the mary poppins castle show, they march into fantasyland and play one or two numbers.
seeing the different school performers at the carnation gardens is always neat.
pretty much soak in all the different performers in the lands. they are really good.
these are some things i enjoy when i have a liesurely time in the park.

The tiger is a CM in a costume.
