Animal Kingdom

Yesterday we slept in a little, packed the car and traveled to the Animal Kingdom. This was our last stop on our Disney weekend. We planned for a few hours of uncrowded sightseeing and then home. WRONG! It turns out it was the local schools spring break as well as lots of schools and colleges from Alabama, Mississippi, Texas and a few other random states. I guess they thought it was a good day to visit the Animal Kingdom as well. Super crowded but we made the best of it. We saw maflingos (flamingos to the rest of us), gorillas, fish, lots of other birds, naked mole rats, a hippo, the Nemo musical, the 3-D Bugs Life show, the Lion King show, walked behind Mickey Mouse in the Safari Parade (totally an accident) and ended with some ice cream. It was a long day but fun. We arrived home about 8 after a LONG car ride home. I thought they would sleep the hour and a half but instead they screamed eeny meeny miny moe to determine who would play the computer first. John would land on himself and then Jack would take his turn and land on himself. You can see how they continued to go back an forth. It was as annoying as it sounds. Melissa was in the back, thank goodness. It was a great trip but so much to do in so little time. Can't wait. Another post with my favorite pictures coming up.
