We decided to let the boys sleep in a bit for today and head to Animal Kingdom mid morning. Ha, ha! They never sleep in when you plan it! We did move slower this morning and arrived at the park about 10:30 a.m.
Josh, Isaac and I went on this Mt.Everest roller coaster. It was scary awesome, but I loved it!! One of the best roller coasters (that doesn’t go upside down) that I’ve been on.
Snack time in the sun! Soaking up the Vitamin D!
There is huge dragon lizard behind him, but you can’t really see it.
AH! A snake!
On a safari!
A hippo!
African elephants!
Flamingos.
A lion—ROAR!
This is the “It’s Tough to be a Bug” 3D show! Logan and Camden literally FREAKED out in this show! I had to cover Camden with this blankie—head and all! I was laughing so hard at them, I missed half the show! Eli isn’t the happiest right here, as you can tell. I can’t remember exactly why though.
Josh won Logan a small basketball bear and Eli won Camden a small basketball bear. Just like those ones hanging up on top, but a little bit smaller.
Do you see Josh and Isaac? Josh looks pretty scared and Isaac is ducking down.
Animal Kingdom closed at 5 p.m., which was perfect because we needed an early night in. We came back to our temporary home, made homemade pizza and watched Prince Caspian while the little ones went to bed early.
We had never been to Animal Kingdom so we, obviously, had to go, but I definitely wouldn’t go back to this park. Not one of my favorite Disney parks.
Oh, and for those of you who think you need to spend a gazillion dollars on food at Disney and can’t pack a lunch. Wrong! We have packed a lunch both days. Yes, you have to trek back to your car, but in my opinion, it’s worth it. It would cost us close to $100 to feed our family of six in Disney. A trek back to the car gives everyone a little break time and time to unwind. It allows us to sit and have a lunch and talk about our day so far. I have not regretted it yet. I’ve packed the back pack full of snacks for mid morning and then we usually buy a snack, like popcorn, a pretzel or ice cream, in the later afternoon. We also brought in bottled water and filled those up in the park when we were out. Works wonderfully! Disney can be done on a budget!
Enough said.
Next stop: Epcot!
