It was an Animal Kingdom day! Mandy wanted to get there for the early opening at 8, so we headed out at 7:30. As soon as we arrived, we headed for the Kilimanjaro Safari. Each time we do this ride, we see something different. Today it was giraffes. There were two adult and one baby giraffe that followed our truck, ran across the road in front and then in back of us. The baby frolicked, bounding and kicking. It was so cute. From there we went to Pizzafari for some breakfast. Bill and I had the breakfast plate with scrambled eggs, bacon, biscuit, and hashbrowns. Mandy had a breakfast pizza with cheese, eggs, and two kinds of peppers and was quite good.
We went to see the 9:30 Lion King show, but it had been canceled due to technical difficulties, so we headed over to Dinoland. Bill and Mandy went on a few rides while I went to watch the monkeys in Asia. We got fastpass tickets for the Everest roller coaster and went on the Maharajah Jungle trek while we waited for out turn at the roller coaster. We saw most of the animals: komodo dragon, tapir, tigers, and many wonderful birds. After the Everest ride, we went back to the Lion King, and Mandy finally got to see that show. We did some shopping, and then headed to the car.
We all relaxed at the RV before we went to the Animal Kingdom Lodge to Boma for dinner. That is one of my all-time favorite restaurants, an African buffet. We totally stuffed ourselves. The soups weren’t as good as usual, but the Bobuti and the Geelrys rice were great as were the desserts. It was a fun day. The weather was great, sunny and not too cool.
