Animal Kingdom 2012

What must it be like to wake up as a kid and be told get dressed kids, change of plans.

The next thing they know, they are at Animal Kingdom!

This day was a last minute addition.  The Kanes were pretty busy with their schedule for the day so Caroline got her friend Kristin to get us into the park.  Her husband is an executive at Disney.

So amazing that she will come to the park and just help us get in!!!  Love this girl for many reasons.

So I told the kids this was just a bonus day and we would just do their favorite things and just be relaxed the entire day.  Ends up that they were able to walk on everything and have great seats at the Nemo and Lion King show.  Such a fun and relaxing day.

Logan loves these two so it was perfect that he got to visit with them.

Jordan just said ,"proooofile picture"!

Dino Land

Big kids get to ride the big Dinosaur ride and the littles have 2 for them to ride.

Mt. Everest, a very fun roller coaster.  We had to take turns but Jackson, Jordan, and Mom got to ride.

Jackson got to ride 2 times with the parent swap.

It wouldnt be a day in Orlando without downpours.  We were prepared with our ponchos and we just kept moving.  It really doesnt put a damper on things.  Ha! Ha!

We were getting ready to leave with the rain but decided to do the safari.

We have been on the safari many times but this was one of the best.  Animals everywhere.  An ostrich would not get out of the road so we got stopped for a while and got to watch the giraffe up close.

Such a great ride.  Feel like you are right in Africa.

So glad that we did that!

Our day wasnt over with-

On to Epcot!
