Day 3- Animal Kingdom 9/15

Today is Animal kingdom Day. Again we are up early, me more ready to go then the others! We arrive at AK to see the rope drop performance. Micky and freinds greet us and welcome us to our adventure! There is Mickey on the Tree of Life!
Crossing the bridge to Asia. Destination.....Expedition Everest.

Breanne and Mike just before getting on the coaster! This one was a blast. You go backwards and upside down! It was fun!

G-ma scooting along.

These crane like birds were everywhere. As common as our seagull or crows. We thought they were really cool.

The ride was fun. You get in the big jeep like thing and "go back in time" !

After our successful time travel journey we rested in the shade for a moment.
Next up The It's tough to be a bug show! Here we are in our 3D bug eyes!

The show is inside the tree of life so you get to see alot of it up close. The show was a riot and even scared me a few times!

After the show we were ready for lunch. We decided on Pizzafarri since it was indoors and we could get out of the killer heat.
Food porn. Ron had some kind of sandwich thing, he really like it.

Everyone else had.......pizza you guessed it! Cheese for Breanne and Pepperoni for the rest of us.
Along with the pizza came a yummy cesaer salad and a delicous apple thing!

Breanne and Mike got Choco chip cookies. Breanne enjoying her cookies!

In the Pizzafarri .....umm lobby?

Nice view looking at Expedition Everest from the other side of the part.

After lunch and tatoos we head over to the Safari ride.
There are hippos in there really!
See the little deer like guys! They were so cute.

Backwards on a coaster, no thank you

I love the tree of life. Is it an actual tree?

I like Mikes choice for a tat…hmm…great idea for a real one actually.

That bird does look really angry, how funny is that, well, actually it's kinda creepy how mad it looks, its all in the eyes.

Nope not a real tree. Actually it was scuplted using and old oil rig as the main structure. That was the only thing large enough to support it.

That bird was great! I was just trying to get a cute pic and wala!
