Now this day had been changed. My original plans were for AK. Then I switched to DHS and then I switched back to AK. Most of you know the story.

We get up and then get ready for our day. We arrive at the park at 9:25 a.m.

I remember riding with my parents in these when I was kid at Magic Kingdom.

We got through the gate quickly and was on our way. We were hungry and I know where we could eat. Along the way we saw.

Our first glimpse of the TREE.

I knew Tusker House was a no go as I had been trying for days before the trip to get the ressie again we decided to eat at.

I do like how they have this place decorated.

No food porn here. I think I will stop here for now.
The cost for this meal would have been. $28.00 for 2 adult platters and 2 drinks each.

Up next...

A 2 week adventure

Look how empty that parking lot looks!

I didn't realize Pizzafari served breakfast. Is it the standard quick service fare?

 

[Native NYer]

I'm wondering if the empty parking lot means low crowds for your AK day.

 

[englishrose47]

it really was. I was shocked.
Yes it is. What you can get at a resort cs or Sunshine Seasons is what they serve. It was good though.

time will tell.

After breakfast we decided to take a 2 week safari. Leaving Pizzafari.

let's walk.

Will we conquer this today?

We decided to do stand by. I believe it said 30 minutes but it was more like 15 (if that).

Cute little guy.

Getting closer.

Our vehicle.

I believe this was the black rhino resting.

Cute bird

Hungry, hungry hippos.

When we drove by the area with crocs they were not there. Don't know what happened to them.
Then we hit open land.

I see you

Con't. in next post

 

[scottny]

Con't from previous post....


I love the elephants.

See the baby to the left.

Flamingo Island.

I think this is the cheetah? Look in middle of pic lying down.

Lion & lioness were resting as usual when I do a tour. LOL

Lounging around.

Still resting

Warthogs

The 2 babies were play fighting, it was really cute. Wish I turned video on.

Lazy

Almost there

Found the baby.

The kid behind us started yelling. "That is not real, it is fake". He told the whole truck that. It was funny.

And that was our safari. I love this ride. I just wish I would see the lion when he is up.

Up next...

Walking a trail

Wow - glad I found this TR in the middle of the TR sea! I'm really enjoying your posts so far, and look forward to reading more.

Never did hear if you were able to see where your "home" will be with the vacation club, and what you thought of it? Perhaps it's coming up later.

"Read" you soon!

 

[enyaj40]

I'm caught up! Love all the pictures.

I can just picture the lions saying, "Here he comes! Lay down and play like you're sleeping!"

Cute pictures of the warthogs. Video next time, for sure. I bet it was fun to watch.

It was so nice to start my Friday morning off with a safari.
'Pree-shate it!

Looking forward to see if you conquered Everest. Eek!

Glad I could your Friday morning better.

He was really funny.

So far so good!!!

Love all the Ipp Dip goodies.I LOVE the Mickey shopping bags...where did you get those?

 

[Charleston Princess]

Ah, I love an early morning walk through Africa followed by a safari!

The lions do the same thing when we are on safari. I have just come to expect the lions on the Jungle Cruise to be more active than the ones on Kilimanjaro.

 

[Native NYer]

The safari is the best part of AK.
I have never seen the lions doing anything but lounging.

Me too
that is so very true and yet sad.

I love it all for photographs. But the safari is the highlight of the park.
