Disney's Animal Kingdom - December 31, 2008 |
|
Quite possibly our favorite. The Kilimanjaro Safari Ride (which we did 2x, thanks to the Fast Pass) is the closest thing to a real African safari we've ever experienced. Bongos, okapi, kudu, elands, tons of hippos, rhinos (right by our vehicle!), lions, ostriches, elephants. Oh, it made me crave Africa! The only animal we didn't see were giraffes (the next time we did though!). We saw some huge silverback gorillas in a beautiful tropical setting. Saw a Broadway-quality Lion King show, the 3D It's Tough to be a Bug show, and met a bunch of fun Disney characters. A high school friend of Gabe's (and Disney employee) volunteered to be our tour guide for the day (and got us in free!). What a huge blessing. We're Animal Kingdom fans for life!
