"It was the time of our lives!" WL Jan 10-15 2010 NEW: 5/17 PTR LINK UP!! PG 44

Great update and pictures! I have never been to the Tea place in Asia, but putting on my list for AK. I totally agree on the straws, ickk. Staying at AKL we got grossed out by them. But better to keep the animals safe. That Safari wagon ride near your house looks awesome! Wow I can't believe how empty Pizzafari was! In February 8 of us squeezed at one tiny table. It's a very good counter service though. I can't wait to see your next update with Goofy and EE. I'm guessing you decided to ride :goodvibes.
 
Your photos are awesome - especially the parade pics.

My kids love Mancala. My DD has her own board and she and her brother play all the time. Very cool that they had someone there to show kids the game.

I'm still debating between Pizzafari and Flame Tree. Your TR might be swaying me, but I DO love me some BBQ!

Thank you so much!! I love taking pics at WDW---probably take too many!

I am so happy to hear you play with Mancala. I am getting it for my DD for her birthday!

I have heard really good things about Flame Tree, too. We picked Pizzafari because my kids are kind of picky eaters. We knew Pizza would be just fine! It was really good though. It was like a nicer version of Pizza Hut or Dominos.


"She showed Abby the African game, Mancala"
I love that game. Some of my EC kids taught it to me a few(many) moons ago. Looks like a great time in AK. Last day is sad I'm glad you had time in a park before heading out.

The game is very fun and challenging!! I think I am going to buy it for my DD for her birthday! The last day was sad! Everything we did I was thinking "This is the last time we will..." haha We did get to have some fun before leaving, though!

What a great experience with M-Po!! :goodvibes We will watch out for when we go in September--maybe we will get lucky to see her.

YES! I hope you are able to see her. She is really kind and we had a connection.

The safari near your home looks awesome – you are soo lucky to have something so fun so close.

Mancala – that is my oldest son’s favorite game -he loves to play it, we have 2 of them – one for his room and one for the camper

We are very blessed to be able to take the kids to the Safari every year! I hear they are changing up the Safari format at AK, so I am anxious to see what they do!

I am getting my DD Mancala for her birthday! So happy that your son likes it so much! It is a great game for the brain!

Oh, I LOVE AK!! :lovestruc I hate to say I have a favorite park, since I really like them all, but I do love AK.

I have always thought the face-paintings looked cute....do you think they would paint the face of a 28 year old? :lmao:

I hope you rode Everest!! I am not a huge fan of rollercoasters but I really do like that one!! :thumbsup2

AK is a great park! I think it is my DH's favorite too!! HAHAHA good luck on getting your face painted! I dont think there is an age limit. Hey, I see 30 year olds dressed up from BBB so I am sure it would be just fine!

I love Everest too! I just like how it is themed--helps get this scardy cat on it!

Great update!;)

Too bad about the Safari, but I would say that experience near your home looks even better due to the feeding opportunities.

Dying to see if you get the courage to ride EE alone!;)

Thanks! It is really neat that you can feed the animals! We love the theming of the AK Safari, but it was not worth the wait to us!

I LOVE EE! Should update really soon. I am working on a paper right now, so my time is limited. Maybe Wed?

I just love AK :cloud9: Your update makes me want to take another spin on EE right now!

Wow! The safari thing near your house looks amazing! That is so neat that you have that near by. And how cool that you get to feed the animals :goodvibes Also, I love the pic of the zebra where it looks like he's screaming - it made me laugh! :laughing:

Oooh, can't wait to hear about your Goofy experience. As you know, Goofy really surprised me on our trip too! :lmao:

And, I was reading over the talk about the AG party and I just had to mention I had an AG birthday party one year and it was so much fun! It was a pajama party and I remember the cake was shaped like a pajama shirt and I thought it was just the neatest thing. :love: It all came as a set that you ordered from the company.

Thanks! We are very blessed to have it so close. HAHA The Zebra did not like us driving through! It was the first brisk, Spring day so a lot of the animals were "frisky".

I thought of you when I wrote about Goofy! WAIT until you see what he does!! It was probably the same CM as yours! How cool!

I saw those sets from AG!!! They do not sell them anymore and they go for big bucks on Ebay. I have been getting small things made through etsy.com and ebay to make my own. It is coming out cute! Can't wait to show you pics. How cool that your cake was shaped like a PJ top!!! I love memories like that!

I hope you rode EE! It looks like so much fun!

I cannot wait to experience AK for the first time. It sounds so beautiful and magical. Your time with M-Po just makes it seem even more so. I used to play Mancala when I was a kid but can't even remember how! I am glad Abby liked it!

EE is a BLAST!!! You will LOVE it! AK is so awesome. It is so detailed that you really feel like you are in Asia and Africa. Just amazing. Look for M-Po! I am sure she may still be there!!

It is such a neat little place. It has really cool spiced coffees, too. I guess I never thought about the paper straws at the AKL too!! YUCK they made you use them inside too?!

We have a blast at the Safari Ride by our house!

WOW! I can not believe that it was so crowded for you! I guess we got lucky! I will update really soon!

Still getting caught up but I saw the picture about the dancing CM in Adventureland. I wonder if it's the same lady we saw at the Move It Shake it Celebrate It parade. haha, she was really getting into it!
