Nothing there is free. Lots of things are included. 😉

Change it. You'll be glad you did.

That's what I thought.

I didn't realize you were only talking about Animal Kingdom.

You must not have been looking in the right place. Characters have been back for nearly 2 months, and the Magic Kingdom parade for nearly 3 months. This article was written on April 21: https://www.mynews13.com/fl/orlando/news/2022/04/21/character-hugs-return-to-disney-world "Among the character greets that no longer have physical distancing are Mickey Mouse at Town Square Theater and Princess Fairytale Hall at Magic Kingdom, Anna and Elsa at Royal Sommerhus, Minnie Mouse at the World Showcase Gazebo at Epcot, and Disney Junior Pals in Animation Courtyard at Disney’s Hollywood Studios." "Last month, the Festival of Fantasy parade returned to Magic Kingdom alongside the new castle stage show, Mickey’s Magical Friendship Faire."
