Some may complain about the hold up of the safari but most would consider it lucky to see those animals up close.
It seems that stubborn giraffe was trying to see what he( or she) can get away with but finally gave in when the " good yummy greens" came out.
Maybe it was a giraffe dare to see who could make the truck come out?
Was the last seat as bumpy as some say? I don't recall ever sitting in the back myself but I do remember being tossed around in other seats enough so that all my pictures were a blur.
Jill has a lot of it on video, so hopefully she can get her computer to cooperate and put some of that up. We always enjoy anything different on the safaris.
The last seat was pretty bumpy; I agree.
Such fantastic pictures of the giraffes. I would love to do the Safari they offer at AKL someday...
Us, too. We have talked about it several times. As a matter of fact, Trent even checked on the price to do it for my birthday, but it was too much!
The stubborn giraffes are too funny! Especially the one that came back out as soon as it thought the truck was gone! I'd love to see them that close.
Hopefully you can see the whole thing on the video. All you have to do is find a jeep to sit in for about twenty minutes, and you'll pretty much be reenacting the whole thing!
Sometimes giraffes remind me of second graders....
As usual, loved the update MeMom. Hmmmm, I wonder if Brooklynn thinks the water might be hot in that scary geyser....
I'm not sure. She likes the Pop jets, but she doesn't like certain kinds of spraying water.
Right now, though, she has bigger concerns. Jill told me today she has monsters in her closet!

And they are not Mike and Sulley!
Great pictures of the giraffes, the think they are more like 7th graders and were in their own little world with all their peers. I look forward to the pictures of the animals on the trail.
Yeah, maybe they are teenagers giraffes, and that would explain it all!
Wow those are great safari pics! I can't believe how those giraffes held you guys up! Thats crazy

Its so cool how the CMs just come out in the truck and know how to make them disperse LOL
Those darn lions are so hard to get pictures of!
Several of them began moving when they saw the truck coming.
I've gotten some pretty good lion pictures in the past, but nothing on this day.
The Port Orleans Resorts are beautiful. We stayed at the Riverside, and enjoyed it quite a bit. Check my TR for pics!
They are both pretty, and we love the walk along the river. It's one of the most peaceful places in Disney World, I think. I will check out your pictures.
Great giraffe pictures! I bet it was neat to see them up close!
And to who asked about the last seat....yes it is bumpy!!!!
It was cool to see them up close!
Yes, VeRy BuMpY!!!
WOW! Those were fantastic giraffe pics! Who woulda thunk it?
I thunk I was the only person who used that word!
Oh. My. Goodness. What an amazing experience to see all those giraffes acting like they owned the place!!!

I love it!!!
And the kids and crocodiles setting --

.
So, do you think they are one and the same?
Your giraffe.
My giraffe.
I won't tell you how much time I have spent scrolling up and down examining their patterns and spots because it might reveal just how nutty I really am...
But I have come to the conclusion that it "might" be the same giraffe.
I think it is the same one. I see several splotches that convinced me that it is the same camera hogging giraffe. Maybe we should nickname this one Hollywood!
Okay I did not even see "your" giraffe and I have been scrolling looking at them both too- I think they might be the same one!
I think so, too.
I agree! That giraffe really gets around!

Great pictures of all of your giraffe company. I would have loved to get that up close and personal with the giraffes.
It is very cool when the animals come close enough that you can get really good pictures, and it's nice to stop every once in a while so you can get a good shot.
Love the giraffe pictures. My favorite was the one Charleston Princess and IluvXU reposted. How cool is that?!? Loved the rhino crossing the road too. Excellent!
I liked that, too. I don't know if Jill did video of him or not. Being so close to something that massive was cool.
Thanks to Jackie I have now spent a "nutty" amount of time scrolling between two pictures of giraffes and I think they might be the same one but I'm not sure I'll have to spend more time studying the pictures
What a great safari...I have never had the experience of animals getting that close or acting stubborn so I would have loved it!!! What a great interaction!!! Sorry you haven't been able to get a crocodile pic yet...but you'll keep practicing...one is bound to turn out at some point LOL!!!!!
Loved this update and the giraffes how fun!!
Have a great week at schoo MeMom!!!
Scrollers of America, unite! The mark on the middle of the face, the ones around the eye, and the one on the neck convince me that it is the same one.
I will have a busy week. I have to finish testing and get ready for a sub!
Yep, I was doing the same thing, up, down, up, then back down, over and over again.

I concur, they look the same to me too!
Yep.
Great safari pictures! Those giraffes were too funny!
We did feel sorry for the people that were waiting in line back at the station, though, because we were there quite a while.

I just handed the laptop to Marc and he did the same thing!
And does Marc agree with all of us smart people?
Our detective skills are coming through!
