I just found out that on this day April 7 of 2006 Expedition Everest at Animal Kingdom officially opened. Now for those of you that are not familiar with the rides at Animal Kingdom, it is a fantastic roller coaster. My family and I first noticed the ride being built in November 2005. We were very excited to try Disney Worlds latest attraction. In May 2007 we were able to ride it for the first time. In typical Disney fashion they transport you to the Himalayan Mountains were you are warned that the possibility of seeing a Yeti is very high. The coaster takes you up 200 feet , then races you down the mountain, stops you suddenly where the tracks are broken and then races down again backwards. The highlight of this ride is the huge Yeti that is hanging from the rocks ready to grab you. I'm not much of a roller coaster person, but I do enjoy this ride.
