Saturday was a great day at the Animal Kingdom! We arrived in the early afternoon and saw "It's Tough to be a Bug."
We enjoyed an awesome safari - the giraffes were SO CLOSE to the vehicles - in fact, we were stopped on the savannah for some time as the giraffes were blocking the jeep in front of ours! We saw the Legend of the Lion King and then had lunch at flame tree bbq (I actually met them there and got a roast beef pita with cucumber mint sauce from a small "snack" window at the edge of Africa - yum!). We saw Nemo, the musical, and then split up - Grandpa Bobby took Geoffrey to ride Triceratop Spin and play inthe bone yard while Grant, Mom, KAtelyn and I went to Expedition Everest. We had figured we would do child swap, but the line was a walk on - so swapping ride partners while one waited with Katelyn, we each rode four times!
We met up at Kilaminjaro Safari to do one more evening ride. As it was one of the last jeeps to leave our tour was a bit more leisurely. We had great luck with the animals - the white rhino was quite near the vehicle, we got to see the leopards running around, and we saw the female lion grooming and the male lion pacing!
What a perfect day! We came home and swam for a bit before having dinner and going to bed!
