Animal Kingdom

Day 3 was a fun day! Animal Kingdom was so cool. We started off by seeing a bug show called, "It's Tough (or was it rough?) to be a Bug!" It was a 3D show with puffs of air, sprays of water, pokes in the back, and at the end, when the bugs left, we felt them on our butts! Ethan freaked out about the scary stuff, but I thought it was pretty cool. After the show, we went on the safari. That was so cool. The sign did say that "expectant mothers shouldn't't ride," but I figured it'd be fine. All it was was a ride in a jeep. It was rough but nothing too bad, especially compared to the rough turbulence we experienced on our plane ride to FL. We saw rhinos, ostriches, lions, a few different kinds of antelopes and deer, crocodiles, elephants, and a bunch of other cool animals. On our way to the safari, we came across some really cool drums that the kids, and some adults, played just because they could.

Ethan and Meg drummed away and were quite the band.Mike is such a kid at heart, I love it, and he wanted to join in the fun.

Then it was a daddy-son band that graced us with their musical talents.

Animal Kingdom has a cool dinoland area and I just knew that Ethan would love it. There was even a ride just like the Dumbo ride at Magical Kingdom. He went on that twice and loved it! He still talks about it. There is a cool replica of Sue the T-rex that we went to look at.

Then, of course, here are my dinos. They are t-rexes. Ethan puts his two fingers out just like t-rex claws. It's so funny.

After three full days of fun in the FL sun, our family headed back to our rental house for a dip in the pool and relaxing, all before dinner even. We had a great time and hope someday to be able to go back.
