I Told You Driving Was Bad For Your Health! *2/2* NEW TRIP REPORT LINK P102

[dawnbu40]

I loved the photo tour of AK! That park is so beautiful and you did a great job capturing it. I can't wait to get back there next month

 

[Poolrat]

Even off site you make time for the workout and get to AK all early.

It looks like your EE FP was obtained at 9:03 and the Safari FP were obtained at 10 am. Could it be they were for 10 something?
Sure seems like you took the grand tour of the park that morning.

You covered a lot of ground.


DVC tour - I know what's coming. Hoping to get a sneak peek next week.

 

[Poolrat]

Dup I am ready to give up on Internet explorer

 

[scottny]

I think the orange backpack is worse.
I am looking forward to the new place they are opening near Morocco.
Love sitting outside at Rose & Crown.
What a great dismeet in the lobby.
Great pics of EE queue.
Nothing better than front row.
Nice pics of the ride. LOL he covered your face.
I have never been in Restaurantasaurus.
All caught up again.

 

[GoofyFan1515]

You sure do make it hard to stay caught up around here!!!

So, you took the time for a workout before..........your workout??? By the end of the day, all that walking around the parks is about all the workout I can stand!!! I usually end up spilling a drink on my shirt like the Epcot picture of Denny..............

It's hard to put you hands in the air when you are holding onto your camera for dear life.

You have a camera in that picture??? So cool that you got to ride in the front!

Clearly we survived! And there's one passenger in the front row who is a little over exuberant about the whole thing.

I see you're still clinging tight to that camera......

Channeling my inner Cynthia I took some T-shirt pics.

Oh, I love this one!!!

AK is one of my favorite parks to explore and EE is one of the best two coasters at WDW IMHO! You guys did a great job hitting EE, Dinosaur and collecting FPs first thing. I know this is a stretch, and hard to imagine happening with the two rides involved, but is it possible you got that random and elusive set of bonus FPs for Safari when you stopped for the EE ones? Usually if that happens it is for a less popular ride, but I guess it is possible.......especially since the return times are exactly the same???

I love the way the entire whole of Animal Kingdom is perfectly themed, blends together so well. I love the entrance too, it fits in with the rest of the park just right.
EE is especially fantastic with the theming. I adore that queue!
Front row is awesome for the views, but for me, I'd rather the back row for the ride!
Fantastic on-ride pic on Dinosaur! Love the enthusiasm!
I pretty much need that "Unstoppable" t-shirt... can't wait to get there!
I have a good feeling for a great lion picture this time!

 

[nowellsl]

Your EE pictures are great, I've never been on it. I prefer to take my EE pictures from on the ground outside

 

[Captain_Oblivious]

He returned with two FP's and we got in the standby line, which move pretty quickly.

Love the EE queue. You got some fantastic pictures on the ride as well!

I see we got our picture taken. OK

+1 to Denny for the Phillies shirt.

Clearly we survived! And there's one passenger in the front row who is a little over exuberant about the whole thing.

All the other passengers are saying, "I would have bought the picture except for that lady in the front seat."

It was good, but a quarter of a sandwich, really? I ate that in two, maybe three bites. I had no clue it was going to be such a lame size.

Wow, that's pathetic. That didn't come from the kids menu?

This has always been one of my favorite views in the park

Me too.

Manual labor anyone?

No thanks, I'm on vacation.

Up Next: Safari and will I FINALLY get a picture of a lion???

A sleeping one, maybe.

 

[wiigirl]

Really cute shirt!

 

[Wicket's Mom]

I, too love the theming at AK. We usually spend our last day in the AK, Asia is my favorite theme area.

I've never been in any of those restaurants in Dinoland, so thanks for a peek inside.

Looks like if I want to ride EE again I have to ride solo. DH is starting to have major motion sickness on most rides. He had his last ride on Star Tours this last trip, he was getting sick. At least I can still ride all the rides!

Looking forward to that DVC tour, wish I could get hubby to invest.

 

[jenseib]

I love the tees. Those are really cute.
Looks like such a nice day, though crowded. But it seems like parts were less crowded than others.
I swear I have gotten a bigger sandwich there before. I wonder if someone at the other half. LOL

 

[norybell]

Love your front-row EE pics!

I MISS ANIMAL KINGDOM. Like, seriously. We ended up not making it there with Simba, which means I haven't been there for my last three trips. Considering EE is tied for my favorite grown-up ride (with TOT), that's shameful!

Actually, come to think of it, I don't think I've been to HS for my last three trips, either. I've been traveling to WDW like it's 1982 or something!

I really think AK is the most beautiful park. I just wish it had better traffic flow...except for at the very beginning and very end of the day, it pretty much always feels crowded to me, even on very slow days. I can't imagine how packed it must have been walking around there in June!

 

[Disney9.9.10]

Great update! You got so many beautiful pictures from Yeti Land (I like that name lol) Very cool that you got to ride EE - the pictures turned out great. I'm usually hanging on for dear life and my camera doesn't even cross my mind

 

[mickeystoontown]

Mary Ellen, I'm always amazed at your pictures on Expedition Everest. They are so good! I'm too much of a chicken to do much more than hold the camera still and push the button much less lean over and take pictures looking down and to the side.

 

[Pinkocto]

Great update Those shirts are too funny! I just might have to pick up one or two next trip.

I really enjoyed that veggie sandwich you recommended at Restarauntosaurus, and the inside has so many details. That one you got at Pizzafari looked piddly, was it at least good? How much?

Too funny about the hands up during Dinosaur, I'm always cowering in fear

I laughed hard at this comment. I always feel like I am backtracking in AK because well you are. It needs an outer loop.

Hi guys. I'm reading all your comments tonight but I'm not sure when I will do replies. I am working 24 hours tomorrow and again on Sunday. This is part of a 12 day stretch. So forgive me if it takes awhile.

Hang in there, MEK! Keep your eyes on the prize of your next Disney trip. It's the only way to make it.
