Disney part 3..Animal Kingdom!

Wednesday we woke up bright and early again to hit Animal Kingdom! BOY was it really...really cold on this day! We froze! The CRAZY part about it was...it was in the mid 60s! If we were back at home...we would have been in shorts and thinking it was a nice warm day! It was a beautiful day though...and luckily it did warm up more as the day went on!

Animal Kingdom was a really neat place! We spent the whole day there enjoying the animals and the rides! The girls LOVED seeing the Kingdom parade with Chip and Dale amongst the rest of the gang! Also the beautiful floats. It was a great parade!

The highlight was the African Safari that we rode! With it being as cold as it was...it was hard to imagine that we were in Africa and not Antarctica! :) The girls loved the rides and A Bug's Life Show the most! We finished up at Animal Kingdom late and once we were done we headed Chuys Mexican restaurant! Oh my it was good!! When we were done...........it was time again to hit the sack! :)

Mickey and Minnie brought yet another treat stash for the girls to wake up to! Since we were heading to Animal Kingdom...they got some animals! :)
Waiting to go on an African Safari!!! We saw SO many animals! Flamingos, Zebras, Lions, Cheetas, and more! They were all right by our truck! I could have jumped right out and touched them!

Crocs!!! Yes, right below us!
A termite mound! WHAT?!? I had NO idea that they had mounds like this!
Giraffes!!! Lily was in HEAVEN!!! She kept pointing and screaming Giraffes!!!
Yep..that blur spot...is Lily's head!! Right in front of a Giraffe eating from a tree!
This tree was so cool to see! It is a real tree that grows up side down! :)
This is how they entertained themselves while waiting in lines! Act like Dinosaurs!!
 Love this picture of my little family! Goofy told Alexis to hold her 'ears' out like his!! :)

Alexis thought she was SOOO cool to ride the Dinosaur ride by herself!
Mount Everest!! This is the ride {that mountain}. It was a great roller coaster! That is a fake mountain too!! {but it looks soooo real!} Alexis decided that she wanted to ride this roller coaster with us. She met the height requirement...so we let her ride! It was a great roller coaster...for us adults!!!............not so much for her! For the first 5 minutes or so...Alexis had her hands in the air!! 'Look Mommy, no hands!!'...well after that...she was crying pretty much the rest of the time! :(  When the ride was over....she stated that she will never ride a roller coaster again! :)
Meeting Donald! Alexis had a Princess signature book for everyone she met to sign their name! Before she got pictures with any characters/princesses....she had them sign it! :)

Dinosaur ride! :) The Dinosaur looks like it is about to eat Tyler's head!
