Animal Kingdom

Animal Kingdom is a beautiful park.  We went there on two days and I totally enjoyed it, from the fun rides in Dinoland to the amazing shows.  Everest was our favorite roller coaster ride and Dinosaur scared the pants off us.  We met plenty of characters and enjoyed seeing the animals.  I love the little details Disney puts into everything.   Bike tire tracks in the cement walkways, old climbing gear and yeti memorbilia in the everest line, intricate costumes in the parades, carvings in the huge tree, crumbling ruins by the tigers, little pieces of ribbon and string tied to the old fences,  and so many other things everywhere you look.

This picture makes me laugh with all the different Buzz poses.  Hayley's cute little fist, Carson's mug, Nate in his own fantasy, Matt being Mr. Incredible, and Zac expressing his feelings about amusement parks.

Remembering back to our most awesome parenting moment ever!

Yea!  for Splash Mountain

Aaaargh!  Mom's favorite ride.

Pirates was updated with Jack Sparrow appearing which was fun.

They had a blast in the pirates gift shop.  There were actually several inexpensive things to buy there.  Who doesn't need a pair of rubber handcuff chains?

Nate was even a good sport about wearing matching t-shirts.

The Swiss Family Robinson treehouse was fun to walk through.  I remember loving it when I was little.  It is one the boys favorite movies.  They laugh like crazy when the pirates are attacking, especially when they get crumpled by the logs.

The castle was amazing covered in lights.
