Disney Day Two!!!

Our second day we went to our first park--Animal Kingdom! We had a great time there! Griffin's favorite attraction was the Festival of the Lion King show and Anderson's favorite was the Kilimanjaro Safari Ride. We also all four liked Kali River Rapids--we wore ponchos and were so glad we did! Most of the people that ride get off looking like they've jumped into a swimming pool!

We got to see some gorillas on an Exploration Trail...
We just stopped for a picture with these guys in the Rainforest Cafe on our way out!

Meeting King Louis and Baloo from The Jungle Book!

The boys woke up at 5:30 AM that morning when Griffin sat up in bed and yelled, "It's finally time to go!" Needless to say, there was no going back to sleep, and we decided to come back for a long nap and a swim for the afternoon. That night we ate at one of our favorite restaurants of our trip--Chef Mickey's! One of the boys' favorite things about this place was that we rode the monorail to get there, and they got to watch the monorail through the whole dinner because it picks up inside the Contemporary Resort (where the restaurant is).
The thumbs up returned for Goofy...

that Gorilla was waaay closer up for you than he was for us- he was a tiny speck by the fence when we were there! We missed seeing Baloo- Jacob would have LOVED that! You know chef mickeys was our fave too!!
