Animal Kingdom

We got to the park right when it opened.  It was another full day of adventure!  I was SO excited for the Kilimanjaro Safari ride and it was everything I imagined and then some!  So much fun!!

Bronx was up a little too early, so he and daddy snuggled on the couch a bit while the rest of us slept longer :)

As soon as we got to the park, we headed right for the Safari ride!  We didn't have a Fast Pass for this one, and we knew the wait could get really long if we didn't get it done right away in the morning.  I was also told the animals are much more active in the morning when it's cooler, and we wanted to be able to see all the animals up & moving around!

This picture shows another Safari van ahead of us.  It was such a fun ride!  

My absolute favorite part of the whole day!  The giraffe's!!  

They are such a beautiful animal!  This is one of my favorite pictures from the whole trip!

Next stop:  Gorilla's!  

 This guy was a bit anti social at first.  It was just hilarious how he sat there with his back to everyone!  

One of Boston's parts of the park was to take his Wilderness Book around & find park staff to get stickers & info. from.  It was really neat and educational!  

 Waiting in line to see Santa Goofy & Pluto!  

Bronx has never loved shoes on his feet, so he hardly ever had them on in Florida.  We ended up losing one of his Nike shoes at the park, did some back tracking to find it & then just decided it was easier to leave them off!  Well that's a big no-no at the parks.  You can hear the gal in the video telling me that Bronx isn't allowed to walk to the characters without shoes on :)

 Derek made friends with the Disney camera guy!  

 Expedition Everest Ride!  

I sent Lisa on it first to make sure it wasn't going to be another Manta ride!

 I gave it a try & it liked it!

Finding Nemo Show!  It was really neat!

Meeting Safari Donald!

Loved having the Memory Maker package so that we could ALL get in on some of the pictures!

 The Dinosaur ride!  Boston's head is covered up by the hands in front of us, but if I had to guess, he had that 'terrified' look again.  Ha!

Meeting Russell & Doug from the movie UP!

It was our last day at Disney World with Grandpa Ron & Grandma Lisa.  We kept them going at a pretty face pace, so I am sure they were exhausted & looking forward to not having 3 rowdy boys around :)

Dad loved his rental vehicle!

 Such a pretty view at our condo!
