Adventureland Photos

Welcome to my favorite area in all of Walt Disney World. Adventureland.



Let's start by looking at a very popular attraction.

"We wants the redhead! We wants the redhead!"

We are of course talking about Pirates of the Caribbean.



Did you see the key to the Dead Man's Chest? I think it was pictured on the Black Bunny Blog before, but here it is again. Also, the Pirates League is basically a program where kids are transformed through makeup, costumes and props into pirates.

Moving on to a pair of child favorite attractions, the Enchanted Tiki Room Under New Management and The Magic Carpets of Aladdin.



There's also the not as popular Swiss Family Treehouse. It's like waiting in line for a ride that never happens. Boring, but classic Walt Disney World.



Adventureland is host to a few wonderful characters.



There's a few great places to eat and grab snacks in Adventureland. Just ask Stephanie. Her favorite ice cream can be found here, an orange vanilla soft serve swirl. Also, the ever popular Dole Whip. This is soft serve pineapple. Amazingly good.



Don't forget all the neat little shops around Adventureland.



And the scenery is stunning.



Now, we can move on to my favorite ride. The Jungle Cruise!



Here you can see giant butterflies: Plasticus machanicus. They have a wing span ranging from 12 inches to a whopping one foot!



They arranged a welcoming party for our group...



Oh no. Looks like a dead party. I can't see anyone, canoe?

Well, let's move on to the base camp.



I guess that's what happens when you leave the door open in the jungle. On the bright side, that jeep would not start this morning, but it looks like they got it to turn over. They must have called triple ape. Used a monkey wrench.

Next, we entered an African savannah.



Here we can see giraffes, wildebeasts, and some 1971 impalas. Not pictured are some lions and zebras. What is pictured is part of a very large piece of sandstone. I point that out so you don't take it for granite. Just out of frame are some zebras and lions.

Just past the pride is a necessary rule to know in the jungle: survival of the fastest.



Yeah, those guys were told a rhino can outrun a man, but I think they'll get the point. In the end. How would you like to be the low man on that totem pole? His name is Juan and it looks like that beast is trying to get a hole in Juan.

We passed a few crocodiles on the river.



The big one is old Smiley. He's always looking for a hand out. His girlfriend is Ginger, but be careful because Ginger snaps. She is one tough cookie.

Oh dear...

A downed plane.



That can only mean one thing here in the jungle.

Hippos. Anti-aircraft hippos.



They can jump 15,000 feet straight up in the air to bring down planes so make sure not to make any sounds like a white marble because they are some hungry hungry hippos.

Coming up next were some natives doing a war dance. Either that or they lost the key to the men's room.



The boat was attacked by the tribesmen. They were from the tribe of Britnee. You could tell by their Britnee spears. Yeah, be careful because those things are toxic.

We next pasted through a sacred temple devoted to the goddess Shirley and stumbled upon an ancient elephant bathing pool.



There we saw some cute little baby elephants and Big Shot whose's been hogging the shower for 38 years now.

As we docked, there was a dock on the left and a dock on the right, also known as a pair of docks. We were asked to watch our heads as we exited the boat and if we failed to watch our heads, then we should watch our language.

Of course, this whole Jungle Cruise commentary has been part of the skipper's spiel during the Jungle Cruise with many additional, hilarious parts left out.

Well, I hope you enjoyed this tour of Adventureland. I'll talk to you again real soon.
