It's so rare to see the male lion awake never mind awake and walking Great pictures of the safari...that woman behind you would have cracked us up too!
I think you either love Boma or you don't. We were nervous the first time we went because I knew they would have very different things. I have a severe peanut allergy so the chef at the time, Chef TJ, walked to buffet with me and went over everything. After dinner he brought us out deep fried oreos with chocolate sauce as a sepcial dessert just for us...he was awesome! Made for a great memory!
Yes, it is rare, we've only seen it once! I took the lion picture and my mom took the giraffe pictures! I've heard that the Disney chefs are great at working with people's allergies. I'd heard about the deep fried oreos, but since I'd read that they are a special treat, I didn't mention it to anyone that worked there. Lucky you! They sound amazing! Do you have any pictures?
Awesome pictures! I love Boma, my inner carnivore is always satisfied there, and the zebra domes are to die for!
Thank you! I don't eat meat, so I didn't try any of that but the desserts were to die for!
You got an AMAZING view of the lion! I've never seen anything but him sleeping on a distant rock or nothing at all. Good for you!
Hilarious about Saddam Hussein! Did the valet CM hear you?!
Yes we did get a great view! The male lion was pacing back and forth, the only time I've seen him move!
I think (hope) the CM didn't hear me! That would be embarassing!
As long as I'm comfy in my fabric/garbage bag.
I can't see your pictures because I'm on my work computer and they're blocked but from what I can tell from the comments, you got a great shot of the lion. He's always asleep when I go!
I was considering trying Boma but the menu doesn't appeal to me. I'd really only be eating there to see AKL up close because I've never been.
Crazy story about the guy chasing down the bus. Another one would've come within a few minutes!
Yeah...now that I think about it, that fabric/garbage bag idea wasn't one of my better ideas...
This was the only time we've seen the male lion awake and moving! I liked a couple of the "actual foods" at Boma, but for me the best part was the desserts! Another Coronado Springs bus pulled up right after that one left!
Forgot to mention in the update: After dinner we walked outside to the viewing area and we saw a giraffe! We had been to the Festival of the Lion King show earlier that day and so we (K, Thing2, Thing3 and I) decided to try out our giraffe sound with the real giraffe. We just scared it away
! Also, in the viewing area by some of the rooms, the only animal there was some sort of bird. I guess I was tired and feeling a little snarky because I made some sort of comment like, "Mom, I really want to stay here so I can look at this exotic bird all afternoon! We don't have any birds in Illinois, this is a real treat!" My mother did not enjoy that joke. She frowned at me, but later she said it was slightly funny. After THAT we walked back to the bus depot. Just had to add those parts in!
