DAY 3:

We woke up early again today at 6:30am...Hannah loved Mickey waking her up again. We got up and ready to go to Animal Kingdom. I can tell you that I have never had such a good time there. We usually went, did one thing, got hot and left. But this time, we used the wdwinfo board tip of going in through Rainforest Cafe. On the way in, Hannah saw an elephant stuffed animal that velcros at the hands and decided that was the souviner she wanted that day. That elephant went with us everywhere the rest of the trip!!! She loves it! So we went to the safari ride first thing and got right on. Hannah loved this ride, she loves animals and we thought it was wonderful too. The giraffes were walking right next to us, too funny. We got of that ride and got some fruit for breakfast. On our way in, we had gotten guarenteed seating coupons for the 9:15 show of Lion King so we headed over there. OMGosh, this is the BEST show I have ever seen. It was awesome! I was in awe the whole time. I wanted to see it again, but we had other things to do. So we headed over to dinoland and saw that Tarzan Rocks was getting ready to seat people. Got in line and got GREAT seats. This was also a VERY cool show...I very much enjoyed it. Hannah and Julia both fell asleep....lol. When we got out, Hannah woke up and we went to play on Dinosaur playground. Hannah LOVES playgrounds, so she was in heaven. She suprised me by climbing up all by herself up the rope ladders. Both of us did NOT like the big yellow slide that circles down from the top. You do NOT slide on it, you scoot. Yuck!!!! Anyway, when we were done with this, we headed to the buses back to go to our traditional lunch and games in the game room at the Contemporary. This is where we found the "happiest" bus driver ever. We were the only ones on the bus and she loved the kids. Chatted the whole way to the hotel. She scared us a little bit because she kept looking back, while driving...too funny. We had lunch and Hannah found the Mickey mechanical car and rode it over and over again. Won some tickets and she picked herself out 2 prizes and then got back on the monorail and at this point Hannah was out like a light. Got to the Magic Kingdom and got the bus back to the hotel. This time Hannah went back to sleep in the room which was suprising but a blessing. Our room was done but I noticed that Hannah still hadn't gotten anything from the resort which I wasn't 100% sure she was supposed to but I had heard you did. So I went to the front and asked the CM and she was very upset that Hannah's bday had been the day before and she hadn't gotten anything from the resort. So she said she would look into it. We got Hannah and Julia up and dressed to go to MGM for Fantasmic. We got there at about 6:50pm. They were already letting people into the theater so we got in line. The middle was all filled already, couldn't believe it!!! So we managed to get the first row on the row right next to the "middle" row. Excellent!!! Now we had an hour and a half to wait, ugh!!! I went to scout out food for dinner, but was NOT going to pay $4 a piece for a hot dog. So we got some popcorn with the intent to eat after the show at the hotel. Hannah was decently good while waiting, she had some other guests cracking up by her silliness. Within 40 minutes, an hour before the show, the theater was packed to the point where they weren't letting anyone else in...I couldn't believe it!!!!! When it got a little more dark, we pulled out the light up necklace I bought for her before we left for Disney...she thought that was awesome!!!! Everything thought what a good idea that was, $1 for it at home versus $5 for one there. Finally the show started...hmmm, another mixed review from Hannah. She was frightened by parts, but loved other parts. The baby on the other hand was mesmorized...she LOVED every second of it...was too cute. Hubby liked it and while I liked it, I will NEVER wait that long again to see it. So then we left MGM with the thousands of others leaving. We sat on a bench and fed the baby while the line for the All Stars grew and grew...it was amazing. But they had that place cleared out in 20 minutes!!!! So when the baby was finished, the line was short and we walked right onto the bus. Got food in the food court. While we were waiting for hubbys enchiladas, the guy cooking it dropped one of the 5 pieces on the floor and the director was irriated so he gave hubby the rest of the enchilada and said it was free and gave him another whole one with double fries...whoo hooo for hubby! We ate dinner and went to bed pretty soon after.
