Lydia loved meeting Donald!

Our original plan was to spend today going to the Magic Kingdom the next day.  Even though we had not seen everything we wanted to, we decided trying a different park might be the best after the Space Mountain issue.  The Animal Kingdom was nice and shady and signs directing you where to go.  This made it so nice!  We started out riding Kilimanjaro Safaris, which was really cool!  Mike's dream is to go on an African Safari.  This WAS an African Safari!!  Well, as close as he will most likely get.  :)  We saw hippos, giraffes, lions cheetahs, water buffalo's, etc.  So cool!  And our guide/driver was awesome!
After our safari, we took a Jungle Trek.  Mike tried to talk Ryan into riding Expedition Everest, which he debated on going, but once seeing the big drop off he decided he decided to sit it out.  That is, of course, until Mike had already gotten in line to go on the ride and was too far in to get Ryan to him.

We tried to get a fastpass for Kali River Rapids, but they were giving them for very late in the day and there was like a 2 hour wait.  While waiting for Mike on Everest the kids and I rode Triceratops Spin.  It's amazing how long you wait for each ride.  We met up with Mike once we got off and headed to the Boneyard.  We saw Finding Nemo, the Musical, met Pochoantus, Donald Duck and Goofy and rode Wildlife Express before calling it a day.  Another AWESOME day!!
