Disney World...Day 3

Monday we woke up and headed to the Animal Kingdom. We visited this park last year and where excited to visit it again and see all the animals. The chance of rain was a little less than Sunday, but we prepared for it anyway. When we first arrived Christian wanted to ride the Dinosaur ride again this year. Last year it scared him, but he wasn’t afraid this year. Since we got there as soon as they opened we were able to walk right on to the ride. He did great, a little scared at some points but loved it.

We headed to a little place in Dino land where a lot of the rides are for little ones, and he was able to ride a roller coaster that he was too short for last year. We were both excited, and enjoyed the ride. Me a little more than Christian since he didn’t want to ride it again. We even hit a few rides that Colin was able to ride.

We walked around the Tree of Life, which is a huge tree with all kinds of animals carved into it. Inside we watched a 3-D show of “It’s Tough Being a Bug” from Bug’s life. Then headed to Africa for the Kilimanjaro Safari. I think this is by far the best thing at the park. You ride around the property and see ALL kinds of animals. It’s almost like you are in Africa. It’s amazing to see how much work, and how beautiful this whole area is. We took a train ride over to the petting zoo, and the back lot where they take care of all the animals. We even saw one of the vet’s performing surgery on a sick little one.

The park is divided into different areas of the country so you can visit, Africa, Dino Land and Asia. In Asia they had a huge roller coaster that was in a mountain or the Himalayas’. There was no way Christian was going to ride it with me, so I was a single rider. I was able to walk right on. It was GREAT!!! The ride started off going up a huge hill and when you start to head down you go around a curve and start heading up a different set of track before the ride stops. You sit there about 2 minutes before hearing a clicking sound and then before you know it you are headed backwards. Into the mountain and in the dark! A few minutes later you stop again and then finish the ride going forward and headed down a huge slope! It was fantastic, and I totally recommend it to everyone.

We finish up the day by heading back to the hotel for a little rest and pool time. Then headed to Downtown Disney for a little shopping. We had a huge day on Tuesday so we needed to get plenty of rest.
