Day 5 we went to Animal Kingdom, one of our favorite Disney parks. First thing we did was go to Kali Rapids so Grady could go on a ride since he didn't get to go on many the day before.
These monkeys are outside playing all the time while in line for Kali Rapids. It wasn't very hot this day so we got to ride it 3 times in a row without getting off and could have gone more but Grady and another little girl on the ride were done. It was so much fun we were drenched and since the sun wasn't out it took us all day to dry out, then it rained. Huhu.
This is Dinosaur Land. Grady and Harper really liked this ride. Just the traditional up and down and around ride.
So I can't remember the name of this ride except Travis and I just missed it last time and were totally bummed. So I was really excited and determined to go on it this time. Well it blew, I said to Travis we didn't miss much did we? He agreed, oh well the kids like it, it was kinda like a crazy mouse ride.
We had reservations for the Tusker House for lunch. I was mighty tasty and we were able to meet a bunch of Characters.
Daisy and Coy. Daisy kissed Coy, which he is embarrassed about.
Daisy freaked Harper out.
Goofy with the boys.
Mickey with the boys.
The Safari is one of the best rides at Animal Kingdom. I feels like you are really on an African Safari for 30 minutes. It's amazing to see the animals just roaming free. Well of course they are not really free but you can't see the fences and they have so much space that it feels like it.
This tree is so cool, it looks like it's upside down with the roots coming out the top. I guess it only has leaves 3 months out of the year to conserve energy.
The Giraffes were so beautiful. One was so close to our truck you could almost reach out and touch him.
This rhino was actually in the road a few trips before us but had moved by the time our trip came along. He was so close.
We actually got to see 4 lions. This is the only one we got a good picture of. The ride is so bumpy most came out really fuzzy. The lioness was ticked twitching her tail just like a domestic cat would as a warning to keep your distance. Although she had absolutely nothing to worry about as absolutely no one in our crew was going anywhere near these cats.
So we have been told the Lion King show is the best show at Disney by more than one person so we made sure we got to see it this time. It did not disappointing. Really really whimsical, creative, and entertaining.
The yeti at Mount Everest, one of the kids favorite roller coasters at Disney. My mother and I laughed as last time this was such a great coaster and we went on it so many times. This time we felt like it was just ok because we just got off the two huge Sea World Roller coasters the day before.
Kali Rapids. No one wanted to go on this again for the rest of the day, but since we ended up getting drenched again in the rain we decided it didn't matter much and went 2 more times. Such a great ending to a great day.
