An April gay Disneymoon - Update 10/7 (2 updates) THE END!!!!!

Your pics of the grounds are beautiful.

Rose and Crown is one of our favourites. Cottage pie is what I usually order as well. Haven't been brave enough to try the Welsh Dragon. How was it????

AK- so fun!

I've never been to the Conservation Station, but it seems like a cool place to visit! Is it really that far from the rest of the park that the train is totally necessary, or just a part of the Disney theming?

One of these days I'll make it to Conservation Station. The goats are awfully cute, and I think it's one of the only (if not the only) place you can meet Rafiki.

Thank you.
it was a really good restaurant. The drink was delicious I really enjoyed it. Not better than a margarita though.
I love AK.

It is different. You can see a surgery (if they still do that) and see Rafiki and lots of snakes and turtles (behind glass) and then you can go pet goats and see the llamas and hogs or pigs. Fun to check it out. The train ride is fun too.

You should try to make it once. It is a fun place to go and see. I believe it is the only place.

Let’s go on a safari. It was one of our better ones.

We got there at 10:50. Can’t be late so let’s walk through the fastpass queue.

Our chariot.

We putted along and I will say it was a very good safari in my opinion.

Rhino

Had to zoom in for this one.

Like looking in a mirror.

Hippos

Zoom in

Crocs

Do you mind?

Then we saw the elephants.

We then saw the flamingos

Con't

 

[scottny]

Then you see the big guy walking in the background? He walked right around our vehicle.

There he is after passing.

Zoomed in look.

The cheetah was up.

Looked ready to attack.

Lioness sleeping. The male was no where to be seen. I have yet to see him up.

Con’t…
Then we came upon an ostrich. Looked good enough to eat. I love ostrich.

Lazy

More rhinos

Hello

Then the quick part of the trip.

Saved the baby.

That ended out safari ride.

We walked out and decided what to do next.

Up next,

More animals.

I don't know, I don't think they look anything like you Scott. Haha! Sorry feeling a little silly tonight. LOL!

The baby elephants are so cute! I have a couple pics from my last trip I'll have to try to find. They were playing and rolling on the ground together like puppies.

Hey!

That would be cute. I saw the younger warthogs playing once and they were hysterical.

 

[Stringbean&Wingnut]

I swear this picture NEEDS a little speech bubble! He looks like he's so happy and chatty, like "AHHHH ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL ANIMAL KINGDOM MORNING."

That is so true.

After our safari we decided to see more animals. We took a trail.

Someone was hiding.

Always look above. You never know what will drop on you.

Fish

Nap time. LOL

That was the only gorilla we saw. It did start raining so we stayed in a cave for a few minutes and then proceeded on.

Next we walked over to Asia. It was around noon so we deicded to eat. We went to.

For an appetizer we shared.
Pork Egg Rolls - chili plum dipping sauce $7.99

Our entrees.

Scott:
Kobe Beef Burger - 10 oz grilled American Kobe beef burger, sesame-soy sauce, mayonnaise, crispy shoestring fries. topped with choice of shiitake mushroom & scallion compote or Asian slaw $17.99

Vinny:
Bourbon Chicken - Tempura chicken, carrots, green onions, sweet bourbon sauce $17.99

Both meals were good but I love this burger. The slaw they put on it is so good. It is what I get every time.
Vinny said the chicken was good.

We did get a dessert and I had no adult beverage.

They do not offer a discount for TIW but we did get it for AP or DVC. Can't remember. It was 10% off.

Coming up,

More animals and getting wet

Can I join in on the fun? I've read all of the installments so there's much too much to comment on.

I'll keep it brief:

Congrats on the marriage!

Love the Flower & Garden Festival pictures! I sure wish they'd extend it out until the end of May so I could enjoy it again.

I agree with you....your safari looked amazing! Lots of animals up and about which seems to be rare.

Hum....what else was I going to comment on? Can't remember so I guess I'll just have to wait for the next installment.

 

[VACamm]

I joined in!! Looks like a great trip so far!!

 

[SoNotAPrincess]

Wow...the rhinos were out in full force! Lucky you! The giraffes and ephelants are my favorite! And how cute are the babies?!?!

Too bad you didn't get to see a lot of gorillas...they can be very entertaining!

Ah, Yak & Yeti...your burger looks yummy!

Well of course you can. I actually started reading your tr last night but am only up to the DTD installment. CBR is what attracted to me it.
Thank you.
probably be to busy with Star Wars. It was gorgeous to see. I have another day where there will be lots more.
They really did come up close to the jeep.
Thanks for reading.

I could believe how many rhinos we saw.
I love seeing the elephants. The babies r so cute.
They were all sleeping somewhere.
It was delicious.

Your meal at Y&Y looks really good!!! Too bad there weren't more animals around on the trail though.

 

[OhMari]

Congratulations Scotty.
Still the bad moderator and barely moderate my board. I mostly just respond to my e-mails when a someone makes a report. My kids gave me a puppy last Thanksgiving, because they think I am experiencing Empty Nest really bad. I love the little guy, but I feel so guilty, when I leave him alone at home while I work.

What were your dates in April? I was down there in April, but it never rained or we did not have any hail storms. My whole family came down, when they found out we were going to Key West first. It turned out to be a great vacation after they all flew home and we drove up to Orlando.

Thank you for the links. Looking forward to reading about your DisneyMoon.

it was very good. Yeah I was hoping to see more gorillas but you take what you get. Next hopefully they will be out.

Hi,
Thank you.
I should moderate I think I am reading 20 tr's right now.
I used to walk dogs and love them.
We were there 10/20-10/28
That storm happened on the 20th. The 1st day I arrived.
I would love to go to Key West. One of definite trips to take.
Thank you for reading.

After lunch we decided to check out Kali Rapid River. We have not done this ride since 2007. We walked over and saw.

I messed up when I separated my photos and did not add Vinny's in for this day so I will post his separately which will include a video of the ride.

After that we decided to walk through the Trek.

Kimono Dragon.

Birds.

Excuse me you are blocking the way.

Vinny would not walk in. BATS.

Tigers.

Let's walk.

Up next,

We meet some dinosaurs

 

[VACamm]

looooove the tigers!!! looking at your pics are making me sooo excited for our trip in 8 days!!!!!
