Girls Trip Revisited-- Final Day (Part 3) -- August 14

[PhoenixStrength]

I love Festival of the Lion King! I've missed it my last two trips too. Next trip for sure!

Pat's monkeys:

I have missed my "monkey" the last couple of trips. I think he was moved to a later show. I will have to test that theory.

Everyone say hi to Donald and his nephews:

Hi to Donald and his nephews!

Pat's monkeys:

She usually tries to capture a different side of them.

As luck would have it, Brenna and Avery were on the end sitting by Mary, and they got picked to be in the show:

Very cool!

We had promised Cayley and Avery they could get their hair done. Okay...I am totally brain-dead this morning and can't remember what it's called that they do, but here are the final results:

I'm a guy, so as far as I know the official term is "put stuff in their hair".

I took this shirt picture, too. I believe strongly in this theory.

No AK tree, though. Did you notice?

After that, we decided to head out of the Animal Kingdom. Heather and the girls, Brenna and Kenzie, had to head back home. They were leaving us. We were all very sad to see them go, and I got this photo of me and Kenzie before all the tears started flowing:

Awww, shucks - tears and goodbyes. I don't like that! Gotta be happy for the good times together, though, and look forward to the next time you have Disney fun together.

soooooooo need to know the story on YOUR monkey?!!?

The stroller thing is so funny. It is so dependent on both the kid, and the family. Some folks boot them out at 3, some kids want out at 3 and others have 8 year olds in them so...it can be interesting! Pro's and cons to all of it I think.

Loving the girls hair wraps, treats and a visit with Pat's monkey! nice afternoon.

Okay Okay I will share.


Over the years of seeing the show I have a favorite...



This is MY monkey. He used to be in the early shows but the last couple of trips he has been absent. In fact the whole troupe has been mostly absent. Yup I see the show a lot.

He may be easy on my eyes but he is also a very enthusiastic and interactive performer. Always engaging the kids and audience and seems to really enjoy himself.

However I usually get more shots of

Pat that is the wrong side for why I thought he was your favorite

 

[Chicago Mo]

I just love the pictures of you and the girls together - you look so happy and loving, it warms my heart to see FOTLK is a great show, and how cool that the girls got picked to participate.

 

[scottny]

I thought they changed from Nescafe?
Ooh you saw Boba Fett. I am a HUGE Star Wars fan. I can tell you them all. LOL
All of these SW characters I am totally geeking out.
The food at Beaches & Cream look so good.
The bow ties are funny.
I love AK.
Pizzafari is a good place for lunch.
Hi Donald and his nephews.
All caught up.

 

[annmarieda]

So cool that the girls got picked to be in the show. I know how special it makes them feel!

Speaking of making them feel special, the hair wraps are so cool! Definitely something to tuck away as an idea for my little miss. As they get older (girls) the draw for BBB lessens, but the need to still be pampered never goes away.

 

[emmysmommy]

Whoa! I was seriously behind! It is so wonderful to see you loving on those girls and having such a great time! Despite crappy coffee, problem bus service and a serving of drama (not yours of course!) it looks like there was still a lot of great moments.

I'm sure Mark was proud of the girls taking after him with the hat poses!

Oh and I love Beaches and Cream... we don't go there nearly enough for how much I like it. We'll try to hit it up next month.

 

[MEK]

Reading from phone. Not good when I'm trying to see pictures of the cutest girls on earth. Love FOTLK. Be back later!

Is this True?!?! I know they have starbucks on main street?

 

[glennbo123]

Caught up on Day 3. Those girls are so cute, and you're obviously loving being with them.

I thought that everybody knew about Pat's monkey by now, even him!

 

[JPFamilyMom]

I can't wait to for my boys to see FOTLK. We saw the Nemo show last trip.

Love the hair things the girls got. And so cool the two girls got picked to be in the show, too fun.

 

[MaryAz]

Here are the rest of my AK pics. Those hair wraps were very cool, we just took them out last night and they still looked ok.

We took a trip out to Rafiki's Planet Watch, one of Avery's favorite places.
The vet was changing the bandage on a warthog.



Avery then pet a cool snake









We really like the FOTLK show. It was even more exciting to watch it now that the girls are competing. Avery would whisper each move as a monkey did it. A CM standing nearby over heard her and told us that one of the monkeys was an Olympic gold medalist!!! No wonder they knew what they are doing!!!



Big girls were picked for the show







These are the last pics from AK-oh boy would the girls be mad if they knew I posted these.







Time to hit the pool!!!

EDIT These pics are from 2 different AK days ooops-one was after Ms Kathy left-I was wondering why she didn't have any of the same pics LOL
