FUN-TASTIC Day at Animal Kingdom!

With weather that feels more like summer than winter, we ventured to animal kingdom today (86*)!  We met our wonderful guide Elly and our two new concierge friends, Jenn and Jennifer as we started off the morning with an animal safari!  We all enjoyed it--- seeing lions, hippos, rhinos, crocodiles, Topi, Warthogs, elephants and giraffes.

There was something for everyone today.  The guys did the Mt Everest roller coaster ride while Gaby did the flying dinosaurs!  The BEST show of the day was The LIon King show.  We all loved it!  Gaby especially was entranced (with Duffy not far behind) by the show!  She was chosen to go out with a musical shaker and be in the parade !  She did a great job!  Since her Uncle Grant was ALWAYS picked to be in a show at Disney, we've decided it's in her genes!  We had lunch at Tuskers and we met Donald Duck, Daisy Duck, Goofy and even Mickey showed up in his Safari outfit!  Gaby loved meeting all of them!

After a quick rest back at our hotel, we took off for Epcot and dinner at Morocco.  Dinner was very good..  They even had a PG 5 belly dancer!  (Couldn't see her navel)!  It was a day of joy for all of us!  Tomorrow is Hollywood Studios!  We made it back in time to watch the Magic Kingdom fireworks from our room balcony!

Gaby liked Daisy!

Mickey stopped by...

Duffy has her new favorite character!  He was enchanted with Duffy!

Note the Tree of Life behind us!
