At 8:00 you are mere feet from the best bartender in all of WDW, Jimmy!! If you like a stuff cocktail, he's the man!

We bought the Polar Bear Merry Menagerie puppet last year. Can't wait to see Santa in Dinoland. All the fun decorations and nods. Great interaction with Santa. How cool to get your own time rover. Cute festive Goofy. We will have to meet him too. I totally love the Marinette Mickey too. The little sign that says your food scraps haven't fossilized yet is funny. Hopefully, I can remember to look for it on our next day there. We kept a Dino-Rama game ticket too on our last day there.

Thanks for the video. My family is going there over the holidays and I haven't been to Disney World since I worked there in the 90's. I worked at Animal Kingdom when it first opened, so it seems really strange that Dinoland is closing. I worked as an "attraction hostess" when I was there, but my job was to educate guests about conservation, animals, and animal care. I mainly worked at Conservation Station, but sometimes did educational enrichment activities in the park. Sometimes, I worked in Dino Land near the place where the were constructing "Sue" the T-Rex and did dinosaur activities with children. One thing I had was a replica of a t-rex shin bone and a t-rex tooth where the tooth fit in a hole in the shin bone which is how scientist know that T-Rex ate tricertops.

This is such great video thank youforsharing. Im so glad my daughter got to experience the Dinoland and dinosaur the ride before it closed.

Hi Jackie. Thank you for being Christmas Enthused. To bad Primevil Whirl became Extinct way to soon. Having your own transport on Dinosaur is one for the History Books. Everything looks Amazing. Stay Safe and keep having Fun on your Adventures. 👋🏻🇨🇦

[@hollycox436]

This was great! Everyone has been posting about Hollywood Studios. This was a nice change ❤

[@attractionshubno1]

Great Festive video as always Jackie

[@ShareaDreamComeTrue]

I’m super enthused you got your own Time Rover! I’ve had walk-ons for Dinosaur before, but never my own Rover. This is our last DinoLand Christmas. 😭

[@joshuadunn4294]

[@cklo8799]

That’s great they added this event in Dinoland! We are so sad it going away and will miss it but excited for new updates to the park!!

[@wdwexploreandchill]

Last Dinoland Christmas! 😭 This was a fun one from my favorite park, thanks Jackie!

[@monicahaller3330]

Animal Kingdom is my favorite park. I love all the character meet and greet. Donald and Daisy are too cute. I know a lot of people love the dinosaur ride, it’s not my favorite. It’s a little too jerky for me. I’m excited to see all the new things coming to Dinoland.

[@rrivillox]

🎵... It's the most wonderful time of the year...🎵 (The next time you will be singing these song 😉). Dinosaur USA will be extinct it, but the great moments will be with us. Thanks Miss Jackie. Greetings and I love your interaction with Daisy. :8)

[@BobbyV78]

Thank you for bringing us along to AK. How cool to have your own rover! I really like that ride, it’s going to be missed.

[@leonmalett4189]

Thank You for sharing going to miss this always loved coming here on our yearly trip 😊😊

[@hollisthomas8881]

You are crushing it on all these Christmas videos!!! 🎄 🎅🎄🎅🎄🎅

[@talhahamer5138]

Oh Wow Jackie, it looks like you met so many characters around animal kingdom🌳🎄❄️🫶🏻✨ It was so much fun for you meeting Goofy 😛🧭in his explorer outfit & Daisy in her stylish festive outfit ♥️🩷🫶🏻✨😍🤩, I think they both look fantastic in their outfits, it was a good idea for you to interact with Daisy & goofy, let me know who you enjoyed meeting the most. Daisy or Goofy? 🤷🏻‍♀️ I also love your t shirt 👕 Jackie can you tell me where you got it from, I would like to buy one myself. That has all the classic characters,

[@kristiecheek8032]

Love, love, love your hat!! Your personality truly shines through every video! Keep em coming!

[@stephburdick]

[@SuperEnthused]

😂

[@daamovieguy]

This looks like so much fun. I once had Spider-Man at Universal by myself, but Dinosaur?! That was so awesome. Thank you, once again, for such a terrific day at the park.

[@rootsandwingstravel]

I could not love this more!! Thank you for sharing.

[@SuperEnthused]

[@Jarvel5]

Thanks for going to this. That santa meet and greet is so cool! I wish I was able to make it. 😭

[@umrmech84]

You're "scooping" all of these celebrations before any of the other KZbin channels that I see. Kudos!!!

[@SuperEnthused]

Just my hard hitting journalistic series on the holidays coming to the theme parks in Orlando!! Nothing but the SERIOUS news here! 😂😂😂 naw but I love it, thank u!!! 🗞️

[@tomklock568]

Just plain fantastic! Sorry that land is closing down...I'll never get to see it in real life I guess. I still want to go to that park though! Speaking, of, my daughter told me this morning that she already got all her lightning lanes reserved for their trip out there next week, since they are staying in a resort they could book them ahead of time! Whee! Most of all I hope they get to meet you when they're out there. Love to you and Sam! 🎄🎅😍

[@karppadiem7014]

So bittersweet that the Dinoland stuff is so cool this year. 😢🎉 Love all of the Christmas wildlife decorations at the Animal Kingdom. Blueberry & Scout are super special too. 💙 Thanks for taking us along. How festive. It was 22 degrees with the wind chill this morning so a crisp morning here. 😮🥶 - western NY Aimee

[@SuperEnthused]

I can’t believe it’s Dinoland’s last Christmas, this will be a quaint memory but I’m glad to document it. And whoaaaaa 22, that is CRISP!!!! 🥶 stay warm

[@reenalthakerar7297]

Lovely live music at the end!

[@That_Boris_Guy]

That was great, the fun definitely picks up some momentum heading into the holidays! ☃️

[@SuperEnthused]

So much happening at all the parks!!

[@FruitBrute]

It’s so nice that they made a Christmas event for Dinoland and put so many small details into it. It feels like a really heartfelt start to the send off.

[@SuperEnthused]

that's a great way to put it, heartfelt. It wasn't a big production or very high budget, but it felt sweet, heartfelt and memorable!

[@HeatherMarieGibbs]

Thank you Jackie for showing Animal Kingdom

[@Tinkergrumpybuns]

My fav holiday park! Love the puppets! TY

[@Adaranova]

Yes yes yes I needed more Santa in Disney content

[@SuperEnthused]

With his Dino nugget of course!

[@TMB62]

I'm excited we will be there in two weeks!! 🎄

[@WiseYoungBabyGrogu]

Thanks as always for documenting the parks for us. So we can look back in years to come. Remember things like Dinosaur and Dinoland USA.

[@CrissyOShow]

So my buddy did the radio host voice for Dinoland. Chris Reid and he also voices other things at Disney too. It was good hearing him in this video!

[@SuperEnthused]

that's really cool!!

[@JustOutnAbout]

I like that ... Live in the now!! So hard to do when just like us there are several things to be excited for! Ak is awesome during the holidays and Dinoland looks amazing this year! Thanks for sharing and looking forward to your holiday trips!

[@SuperEnthused]

Yess you get it! I'm one of those people who loves to be excited for my next trip, but I also love to live in and soak up the now! Gotta find that balance.

[@normaramos7813]

I ❤it thanks 😊 Happy Holidays 🎄

[@nancyhughes444]

I’m with you, Scout (lol)

[@tommyo8068]

Great vlog as usual!!!

[@stevec5226]

Thanks for a great vlog 😊

[@reaper2478]

Great vlog Jackie! Thanks for showing the great theming most of us will look over when visiting! Gotta tell you, I randomly bumped into Adam The Woo last week before he went to Alaska!.. never thought I’d ever just see one of my fav KZbinrs out & about.. Now I can only hope someday 😊👉👈❤

[@SuperEnthused]

Ah that’s awesome, Adam is great! I hope I run into you out there too! 💕

[@reaper2478]

@ Yes he is! I’m from Milwaukee & was at MOA in MN.. & there he was vlogging.. Thinking I’d run into you in Orlando, but you never know 😉 Cheers

[@SuperEnthused]

True u never know!! I do a lot of travels and road trips so could be anywhere haha!

[@edwardleecaliforniausa]

Good morning Jackie how are you happy Wednesday morning to you and I hope you having amazing day and you are amazing supporter

[@ChaChingDream]

Be there next month going to the parks and getting on the Fantasy! Big year for Disney cruise for us! Whoop!

[@SuperEnthused]

Big year indeed woohooo!

[@beckyj1493]

Hey, Jackie. Great video I figured you would be out there yesterday but I didn't get to see you. Unfortunately, I went in the early morning so I could check out all the stuff for the Merry Menagerie. Which is one of my favorite things!❤

[@SuperEnthused]

Yesss I love the Merry Menagerie, you just can't not smile! Sorry I didn't see uuuu!

[@beckyj1493]

Sending hugs!

[@GabyIsabell]

Love the video! I’ll miss Dino Land so much, unfortunately the majority will be closed by the time I get there. But I’m holding out hope that dinosaur will still be open. Fingers crossed 😅

[@talhahamer5138]

Yeah, I totally agree with you Jackie, I’m really going to miss Dino land as much as you do. 🦕🦖, I mean you had so many good memories there & it seems to me that it was one of the best lands in Animal kingdom🌳✨🌿🌱but I am so excited for the Encanto land 🌈🌼🌸🌻🏠& the Indiana Jones attraction 🤠🧡I think those would be a good addition & also you might really enjoy it once it’s fully opened to the public 😊

[@NessieMay]

Thanks for sharing 🦕🎄👍

[@talhahamer5138]

Your last vlog that you posted about “Jollywood” was definitely one of my most favourite videos, 🌟⭐️⛩️I really enjoyed it the most I wish you could have given feedback in the comments in your last video, but it’s ok, I still give that video a thumbs up 👍 ❤ I your interested you should go back to “Jollywood” as it’s happening through the Christmas period ⭐️✨🎄 you should do a part 2 in my opinion what do you think about that?

[@stevenlisten]

That cool 😎

[@francesmarrero604]

Hi Jackie thanks for sharing. How long was your wait to meet Santa Claus?

[@SuperEnthused]

like 5 minutes!

[@BPGalvin]

❤❤❤❤ya Jackie and Sam wherever he is hope they do something with all these dinosaurs. They still have all the dinosaurs from energy adventure. Somewhere thinking they do something like they have in Disneyland huge Dia diagram for the train ride.❤❤❤❤ as always always. Stay safe and I’ll catch you next video.🎉🎉😂😂- Brian G

[@SuperEnthused]

They could make the biggest and best dinosaur theme park everrrrrr!!!!!!!!

[@ajserviced.1760]

🦕 this was so Dinorific 🦖 Love Dinoland 🦕 Wish we could go before they it goes extinct. 😮 in May 2022 Vacation Mom and I rode Dinosaur and we loved seeing the Dinosaurs. The ride track itself was actually too rough on our backs and necks, we actually weren't supposed to ride it like the sign warns you about, we have those issues, but we loved it so much. Its so hard to find places you can see Dinosaurs😢 so we just had to ride it. I'm a Dinosaur lover. The Triceratops ride is so fun too, we rode it 2 times. Sad we will never see Dinoland at Christmas decorations, but we got to see through the screen and we thank you so much for the Enthusiastic excitement seeing it all. Santa was awsome too 🎅 Thanks. Be Safe Take Care 😊❤🦕🦖

[@curtissimpkins]

Another great video my fried

[@pamelacaron54]

We are coming at the end of January I’m praying I can ride Dinosaur one more time!

[@dannygrau2983]

Jackie , if its confirmed that construction for the new tropical america land will begin early January next year , they must know what type of ride system encanto is going to be , they have to .😮 If you think about it , it just doesn't make any sense. You would think that they would be inform thetr guest when a company is going through some sort of change. I think that is something they should know about. But I dont work for Disney so Im not sure how this works out for them.

[@SuzanneA618]

My husband has never been on Dinosaur! Can you believe it! We’ll have to get in to AK and appreciate the dinosaurness before it becomes extinct 🥲

[@TMB62]

I tricked my husband on to that ride one year. 😂😂 I didn't know it was a rollercoaster 🎢 so he was happy and I was sad

[@SuzanneA618]

@ It is a heavy duty ride for sure!

[@dannygrau2983]

Jackie , I just thought of an awesome idea. Have an all new Avatar stage show at the animal kingdom.

[@SuperEnthused]

I miss when they had that show where they would come out and drum, and also the big robotic suit they would wear and walk around. They don't do any of that anymore. It really added a lot.

[@dannygrau2983]

@SuperEnthused me to!! But I was talking about an Avatar musical style stage show with a similar level of finding Nemo big blue and beyond.

[@dannygrau2983]

I would be fine with that . Just as long as it doesn't replace something that's already there.

[@jled1995]

Dinosaur is fun, but super jerky for my bad back 😂 I heard it is going to be raiders of the lost arc- it was so jerky at DL!

[@yugioht42]

Honestly I wish the animal kingdom boats came back.

[@SuperEnthused]

Me tooo

[@Searcy-p7s]

I am so curious if the merry menagerie animals are named the same all the time or if the puppeteer names them. The Going Merry is the name of the boat in the anime One Piece so I’m very curious if that worker just loves One Piece.

[@SuperEnthused]

Oh how interesting, I thought that was such a unique name! I wonder too and I honestly don’t remember if they had names last year!

[@OakydeerPart2]

I DID A DOUBLE TAKE TOO LMAO! That's really cute, love that you caught that interaction too. :D

[@Jsteng08]

Thanks for the chicken nugget 😂😂😂Honestly I thought it was a Gingerbread Man 😆😆😆

[@SuperEnthused]

😂😂😂 chicken Dino nugget prop like ok Santa 😂

[@Valerie71386]

Love the video can you please 🙏 for my mom

[@dannygrau2983]

Jackie are you going to try the blueberry french toast from satu'li canteen?

[@dizneytink]

i have been going to dak every week and riding dinosaur ever since they announced the closing im so sad🥺

[@SuperEnthused]

That’s so cool

[@richardking2762]

You have a Robert! OK, I'll explain. James May, who is a British national treasure (ask Sam) has a mic exactly like that in his new videos. He names it Robert. No idea why. Now you need to name yours.

[@jled1995]

Is this a special event party?

[@dannygrau2983]

No offense as much as I love animal kingdom, its probably my least favorite park , only because I feel deceived by animal kingdom because its still Disney largest park ,but it has the least amount of rides. But you can make animal kingdom a 1 park day , so that may not be such a bad thing because its what makes animal kingdom so unique.

[@zombiezool]

theyre puppets aka not real.

[@SuperEnthused]

Uhm.. what?
