Day 2 - Animal Kingdom

Day 2 was Animal Kingdom.  We were on the move.  The park is only opened from 9-5 so we knew we had to start early.  If you arrive at the park, before it opens you get to "open the park".  There is an offical opening of the park for each day.  We were ready to open the park.  Mickey, Minnie and Pluto came out.

Expedition Everest was a new ride for us this year.  Last time we were here, Everest was being built.  What a great roller coaster.  The kids road it twice.

This the last big drop.

The best brothers ever.  They rode the dino ride with Ella.

Break time - snack time - waiting on fast pass time

What a great ride.  Ella was not too happy with us.

Riding the Kilimanjaro Safaris - Fun to see the animals.  This is an amazing ride.

Another parade- Ella really thinks that the characters are looking right at her.  She waved and waved.

After a short day, we headed back to the hotel to swim.  WOW!!  We are staying at an incredible place.

This is one view of our resort.

After a day at Animal Kingdom, swimming at the pool, supper, then back to Magic Kingdom for the Electrical Parade. 

This brings back great for me.  I clearly remember the electrical parade as a child.  Ella was amazed.
