Today we went to Disney’s Animal Kingdom. This park is set out in different lands (Africa, Asia, DinoLand, Discovery Island) and the main focus is on Animals and conservation.
For a second day in a row we got to the park before opening. As soon as we were aloud in through the park, we headed straight for Kilimanjaro Safaris. The Safari takes you on a jeep ride through Africa where you see a large number of African animals (Elephants, Hippos, Giraffe, etc) .
We had heard that the other main ride is Expedition Everest, so we headed there straight after the Safari. We got on the ride within 10minutes and absolutely loved it! Best rollercoaster in Disney World.
After this, we headed over to DinoLand, did all the rides there, then kept walking around, checking out the Jungle trecks, Conservation station and Forest trail. By this time Spanky was wilting, so we stopped for lunch at Yak & Yeti.
After lunch, we again rode Expedition Everest (not the smarted thing straight after lunch). Then picked up some fastpasses for Kali River Rapids for use later in the arvo.
As it was just after 1pm, we had to head off to the Disney Dolphin resort to pick up our hire car. We took the bus there, found the hire company desk, signed the forms, got the keys and headed out to collect the car. Spanky was a little worried about driving on the other side of the road for the first time, but we got back to our resort in one piece. Back at the resort, we filled up our water bottles, and headed for the buses to go back to Animal Kingdom.
Once back at Animal Kingdom, we headed straight for the Kali River Rapids and both got soaked, which was fine as it was about 30deg and humid. After watching It’s Tough to be a Bug! In 3D, we stopped for a Fro-Co (that’s a Frozen Coke) (Hello to Patrice and Lucille), watched the afternoon parade then headed back to the resort.
Bubbles seems to have received the cold the Spanky has had, so he had an early night, while Spanky packed up all our stuff getting ready to leave tomorrow morning. We are going to Kennedy Space Centre and then driving back across Florida to Pass-a-Grille, near St Pete’s beach.
Approx distance walked: 10km.
