Happy Monday! What a GORGEOUS and FUN weekend we had. Pictures to come but first I need to close out the Disney trip!
After Friday at the Magic Kingdom and Saturday at Hollywood Studios, we finished the trip on Sunday at Animal Kingdom. This was actually my first trip ever to Animal Kingdom and, while I don’t feel the need to go each time I visit Disney, it was fun – especially for my animal loving 3 year old!
The first thing we did was the Kilimanjaro Safari – a must to see some elephants!
We did see some elephants (phew!) and plenty of other animals too…
But the neatest part was when we were literally surrounded by giraffes and even had a giraffe meandering along the path in front of our jeep…as our driver said, we had a “giraffe-ic jam!” hahaha. I think doing it first thing in the morning before it got too hot was smart because all the animals were out to play!
After that we wandered around and checked out the park. Pretty soon it was time to meet up with the cousins for a character lunch at Tusker House…
The characters there were great and I loved the food too – lots of good indian and other cuisines. yum. Plus, they actually had PBJ and apple sauce which made my boys happy campers!
Spencey slept through most of lunch…
but did get to meet Mickey before we left!
So fun for all!
After lunch we walked around some more, checked out the monkeys…
and then Robert and I got to ride the roller coaster Expedition Everest before leaving. awesome! 🙂
We headed to the airport for a (thankfully) uneventful trip home. I would like to officially thank the late, great Steve Jobs for inventing the iPads and making our travel bearable.
It was an exhaustingly great trip to WDW…can’t wait to go back! 🙂
I’m also ready for our next trip to WDW! Such great fun with the whole family being there together!
I’m so glad the animals came out to play! It turned out to be a great day.
Such a great time, can’t wait to visit again.
