Day 3: Disney's Animal Kingdom

Our next adventure lead us to Disney's Animal Kingdom. Isabelle is very into animals and has been for a long time. Both kids have enjoyed our trips to the zoo, so we were all excited to see how Disney does animals!



They were also still decorated for Christmas...
 


 
 
We saw the Tree of Life and headed into Africa...







We utilized fastpasses again and hopped right onto the Kilimanjaro Safari tour...
 

 

 
                                                     



  
We weren't on the trail long before Jude decided it was again, nap time...



 

There were so many different animals and they were rather close to the trail...







One of the many "old" bridges we went over...







Do you smell something...



While Isabelle loves all animals, big cats are her favorite { lions, tigers, cheetahs, jaguars, etc}



Excited...


Sleeping...





When the ride was over, we went off in search of some lunch...

 


We decided on The Rainforest Cafe { I love these places }





We of course went exploring on our way to the ladies room...




Jude was having a good time too...





After lunch, we went to check out the Dino Rama area where Isabelle made her dad play games. { Most children like to play games themselves, but Isabelle has realized she has a better chance at winning a prize if her dad plays the game for her, thus leading her to want to play all games, but never actually play them}








Next we went to check out Asia...










Isabelle was excited when we came across the Maharajah Jungle Trek...










She found herself a big cat...








and Jude found the girl of his dreams...





All that "trekking" made us hot and tired so we decided to take in a show. Finding Nemo the Musical













Next, we grabbed some ice cream and got in position for Mickey's Jammin Jungle Parade...





















We went to find more rides, but were disappointed when one was closed and then even more let down to find out that the park closed earlier than we thought, leaving us with only and a half and hour until close :(  We were able to make it down the Pangani Forest Exploration Trail before they kicked us out...







 

Our little monkey...




We had so much fun on this trip and I can't wait to go again!!
