After a small break from Disney the day before we headed to our next park, Animal Kingdom! By now I was loving the weather here. I'm the kind of person that enjoys warmer weather. I like to be comfortable lol. But I don't like the sun did get a bit hot at times. To me Animal Kingdom was like going to the zoo. Animal Kingdom is also where they installed the new area called Pandora for the Avatar movie. Unfortunately we weren't able to ride those since they were long waits, but we will definitely try to ride at least one of the two the next time we go.
The first thing we did try to do was a 3D film called “it's tough to be a bug” but the wait was too long and would cut into our fast pass for another show called, Finding Nemo - The musical. 
The first thing we did ride is the Kilimanjaro Safari, in which you ride in an open air vehicle for about 15-20 mins and get to see many of the African animals. I quite liked this one because you can see the animals roam more freely than going to the zoo.
After the Kilimanjaro Safari we made our way to Rafiki’s Planet Watch. There you have a little petting zoo that they call the Affection station. But to get there we had to ride the Wildlife Express Train. I really wish I had a picture of this. Next time!
And who better to welcome you than Rafiki himself!
We also had the chance to meet Rafiki himself and get a picture with him too!
Like most petting zoo they had some goats and sheep. I like going to petting zoo, just enjoy watching the animals I suppose.
After coming back to the main Park area we headed to the Finding Nemo show. They did a great job with the show. Both kids and adults would enjoy it. This one ran longer than a couple of the other shows we had seen at the other park. It ran for about 40-45 mins, which makes it a great way to get out of the heat and rest a little bit.
One of the cools things we had seen was the Tree of Life. This tree has carvings of all different kinds of animals. And after dark it's lit up beautifully as well as the animals “coming to life” which the projections put out on to it. I'll share a picture or two of the tree later in the post.
We spent some more time walking around and then went to this water show called Rivers of Light. This water show was really cool. It was mesmerizing to watch. I wish the pictures I took could show how neat it was.
After the water show we ended our night did our final ride called Dinosaur. Boy was this ride bumpy and crazy. Lol. It was fun to ride. They did have a in ride photo but it never loaded into our app. :( that's alright though we can ride it again another time.
Here are some more photos from our day at animal kingdom.
I hope you enjoyed reading about our day at animal kingdom. Stay tuned for the next post about our day at Epcot! With that I will leave you with a little news from Animal Kingdom.
Fun fact: Animal Kingdom got their first Nile hippopotamus in 13 years was born on January 13!
