Who lives in a place like this?

This week I wanted to take a look at a great detail at Animal Kingdom that many people will probably ask why is it there?

So join me as we venture into Asia and take a look at the Kali River Rapids Fastpass building.

So we all know what Kali River Rapids is right?! but have you ever wondered what the Fastpass building is there for? Lets find out!

As the design for Kali River Rapids Fastpass structure was developed , the Imagineers created a story for the place to have an identity for the individual who would "live" in this loft.

The building is supposed to be located as the last outpost one encounters before setting out on a trek. The Fastpass machines are dressed to serve as podiums where one might stop to have their paper's reviewed and stamped.

The person who mans this station is envisioned as an entrepreneurial sort who has devised every which way he can think of to make money from people heading out on excursions. Among the items we find are a bicycle repair stand, a supply of any kind of gear you could need and provisions of all sorts for sale to keep you well stocked on your journey.

That's it for this week, another great detail and story of the Disney parks.
Until next time....Look Closer
