Stayed a week at the Jambo House (Animal Kingdom Lodge). The whole resort hasn’t changed much since the last time I went in 2018, but the type of park guest has.
Pre-Covid, there were costumed characters who actually interacted with guests, somewhat shorter lines and slightly cheaper food and merchandise, and good lord all those Brazilian tour groups.
Fast forward four years. Prices have gone up probably by a third, people waiting 4-5 hours for Star Wars rides now, and the Brazilians have been replaced by legions upon legions of fat, lazy Americans on scooters. Bus hopping from kingdom to kingdom was a pain because they always loaded people on scooters first (and technically they were encouraged to stow their scooters and take a seat but of course none of them actually did, so they essentially took up 3 seats instead of 1). Im 39 and a fair amount of the guests riding scooters were my age or younger. There has to be a Gary Larson type of comic out somewhere with a bunch of people on scooters wearing Mickey Mouse ears.
Either Milennials are crazy unhealthy, or they’re lazy as hell.
