Sept 26, 2009- Animal Kingdom

Luckily, we had direct passes for this park so we didn’t have to go to Epcot first, so we arrived at the Animal Kingdom around 9:30am. We had lots of fun things to do here. We visited the tree of life, went and saw “A Bug’s Life” 3D show- which Kelson was not a fan of- she doesn’t like things popping out at her or wearing those glasses. We saw a few animals and birds around the parks. The adults went and rode Mt. Everest while the kids went to the Dinosaur area to ride on some of the kiddie rides. That is such a fun ride. It was Keith’s first time on this ride. The fact that it goes backwards makes it unique and fun. After the ride, we meet up with the grandparents and kids- they were having a blast on the petri ride (similar ride to dumbo, but with dinosaurs). They rode that ride a few times. We ate some lunch to cool off and fill up our bellies, then headed to the Lion King show. This is such an awesome show- lots of great singing, acrobats, dancing, interaction with the audience, and cool stage acts. It was nice and cool in there, so during the show, Kelson took a cat nap. It was adorable- she just laid down on her daddy’s knee and fell asleep- even with all the loud music. She was worn out- The park closed at 5pm, so it went by quick, another fun, but exhausting day. There was still some stuff we wanted to do, but we ran out of time. That happens with a big group. After we went back to the room, got cleaned up, we wanted to go shop (with cousin patty’s 30% off discount), so Keri, Mom, Lucy, Jason and I met up at Downtown Disney to do some shopping. Kelson slept the whole time we shopped. Around 10pm, we finally grabbed some dinner at McDonald’s. Kelson woke up around this time. Aunt Keri had bought her some cute Disney Princesses bath toys to play with, so she was happy. We got back to the room- just in time for Kelson to keep Bobba awake for a while, so we could sleep in the next day without him getting up at the crack of dawn. I did discover that night that Bobba does a very good Donald Duck impression. It was sad that we were already all done with all of the parks, but we had lots of fun and got a lot of good pictures and memories. Hollywood/Animal Kingdom Pics
