Our family likes AK, but each time we've gone, its always been so blasted hot that we've just not been able to enjoy ourselves. Now if we get back in December 2010......

I tried to respond to your update last night but a certain little 2 year old hit something when I was almost finished and deleted it!!!
So I'm giving it another try!
Sounds like you had a great afternoon at MK! I love the ears!
Sitting on the balcony at AKL with an ice tea and a good book sounds like absolute heaven
Your dinner and Jiko sounds lovely! Although I completely agree with you about all the dining experiences, I really can get to be too much!! Sometimes sitting on Main Street with a hot dog from Casey's is much more enjoyable after a long day!
I love your little preview of your AKL photoshot!! We did it at WL in January and I LOVE the pictures we got from it! I can't wait to see more!!
I'm gonna need a Shanghai Express of my very own! YUM
Liking the name and looks of The Shanghai Express!
Emily's skirt is very cute and perfect for a day at Animal Kingdom -- where did she get it?
yeah for larger photos!!!I am impressed!! But too tired for any good comments on your post. Will follow up with that later
for larger pictures. They look great! I didn't realize they now had Donald acting as host at Tusker House. When we went (which was January 2008) our picture was taken by some African motif (I didn't buy it so I don't quite remember what it was.) Donald then greeted us at the meal just like everyone else. Anyone know when this changed? Anyway, I love those Safari outfits too
They just all look so cute in them, especially Daisy. Can't wait to hear about Everest

The larger pictures look great! We've never yet done Tusker House which is odd because Donald is a favorite of Alex's and Ariana adores Daisy.

Yay for larger photos!
I really really want to go to Tusker House and I just got 3.0 all figured out!
I wish they would finish the Beastly part of AK too. It would be really awesome. So would a boat from AKL!
Yay for larger pictures!!!
I love the pictures of Tusker House. Tom and I decided to add it for December even though the kids won't be with us. The food looks yummy, and I love the idea of empty park pictures!

Okay you are way too hard on yourself about pictures...those pictures looked amazing!!!!! I'm glad you were able to figure photobucket out and have larger pictures!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your Tusker House breakfast with us. I can't wait to eat there on my birthday! I'm so looking forward to that buffet!!!!
I have to agree with you I would love to see them add on that Fantastical animal part to the AK, but I do love the park just the way that it is!!!
Another great update, you leave me anxiously awaiting more!!
GREAT pictures! Thank you. I've been wondering about what has changed and what hasn't since it was at Restaurantosaurus. It's always been a must-do for us, but we haven't been back since it was moved to TH. Now I know. Looking forward to it even more!!!
I have that shirt that Rabbit is wearing for Will. I got the Mickey one for Christian. (Cole has the Pluto one, but as he's not going now...his mom has it for him). I asked them all one day who their favorite characters were planning to make them shirts...Will said Goofy, Christian said Mickey, Cole said Pluto. So I ordered shirts. Disney did all the work for me.
Looking forward to hearing about EE. It is the one thing I'm somewhat worried about on this trip. Not the ride itself, but whether or not Christian will actually be 44" (probably not, but I'm still keeping my fingers crossed). He's not going to be happy if he can't go. Thank goodness it's the only 44" requirement (except for Space Mountain, which is closed, and Mission Space which I'm not allowing either of them on).
Glad you were able to get the pictures larger.![]()
Great photos!! Looks like you had a great breakfast at Tusker House! I can't wait to go there next month! It looks like a lot of fun!!
He does do a little interaction but since they have everyone coming in to the breakfast lining up to take photos its limited...(kinda like you said...but a little better...great start to you day w/ a pre-park opening bfast w/ Donald and friends at AK
and I love your larger photos...
I would like to do that bfast too maybe next year, it sounds so cool to walk up thru AK w/ it being Empty and Michael would love seeing Donald.
does he interact a little w/ you at the start? or just really pose, click and next....
looking forward to more!
