Friends and Boma

It was a pretty day at Disney. We slept in and had a rather uneventful day. Bill woke me up to come outside to see a hawk not far from our RV devouring a snake it had jus killed. It was a pretty awesome sight. Finally the hawk flew away with most of the snake. After breakfast we did some cleaning on the RV and tidying up.

My friend Nancy arrived at 5. We sat outside and chatted until it was time to head to Animal Kingdom Lodge for dinner at Boma. Both Nancy and I love this restaurant and ate ourselves silly. We started off with our favorite, butternut squash soup. We also tried the curried coconut seafood stew which was also good. We also had our usual favorites: Pap and Sheeba – roasted tomatoes and white cornbread; Boboti – a spiced ground beef and lamb with onions and raisins, with a baked egg mixture on top; Geelrys – yellow rice with raisins, turmeric, gloves, ginger. There was a new dish called corn and spinach pudding that was really quite tasty! And finally there were the desserts: zebra dome (a chocolate kahlua mousse covered in a white chocolate ganache), a chocolate crunchy mousse, bread pudding with rum sauce, and a pineapple upside down cheesecake.

Then we rolled back out to the car and back to the RV. Nancy fell asleep soon after we got home since she had been doing seminars for two days.
