Once when my family and I were at the Magic Kingdom, my youngest brother, then about 6, asked if we could go see/go on "Big Lightning Mountain." We all figured that he meant Big Thunder Mountain, and was confusing the two words out of a misunderstanding. So, my Dad asks my brother to lead us to "Big Lightning Mountain." As it was dusk out and people were lining up for the evening parade, we were able to make good time in getting to Frontierland.
Once we crossed over into Frontierland, my brother started leading us away from Big Thunder. My dad stopped him and asked where he was going. He said to "Big Lightning Mountain," of course. We got to the bridge in front of the Splash Mountain drop and my brother stopped. We waited for him to realize his mistake and move onto Big Thunder, but he stood there looking at the Briar Patch and the plunge beyond intentedly.
Suddenly, one of the logs came to the top and went down the drop, triggering the cameras. Excitedly, my brother started shouting, "Big Lightning! Big Lightning!" We finally realized that his "lightning" was actually the camera flashes illuminating the area.

YOU ALL NEED TO REALIZE A FEW THINGS!!!!
Grow up, everything isn't about a ride, AK may have some zoo like qualities but GEEZ, have you ever just taken the time to realize the detail that went into that place?!? It is mind bogling how beautiful AK is, the Tree of Life really takes it all to another level. It just es me off, don't go there then, it'll be emptier when I'm there. Every inch to Animal Kingdom just takes you away, yes there may be animals, IT IS ANIMAL KINGDOM YOU KNOW. They never told you this is full of rides. If that's what you want, go to Busch Gardens. Animal Kingdom is great and I cannot stress enough how much I and my whole family and friends just loved it. You have to look past just the animals, look how they are kept, talk to the CM's, it is all perfect. Ando if you haven't been to a zoo lately, then you'll know that it isn't just a zoo, it is a lot more, but partly zoo YES. They weren't lying when they called it Animal Kingdom. It's not like they called it funhouse or something. Sit back and look at the minor details, it is so much more than all of you are seeing, and I know there are others out there who think just like I do.
Enough ripping!!:sohappy:
