Lisa, what an awesome update and WHAT a special safari ride. The pictures are great and you and your daughter look like you are thoroughly enjoying yourself. Festival of the Lion King is now a new favorite -- after finally seeing it for the first time last year.

we really had fun on our adventure! FotLK has been a fav since Megan's first trip in 02...she was 22 months old, I don't think she blinked the whole show....we sat on the end of the bleachers right by the Bird Lady, Megan kept blowing her kisses and waving, so cute!

Lisa--it looks like you had an amazing day! The WAT looks fantastic Megan looks like she is having a fantastic time on her very special trip I would love to be able to get that close to the animals, but, I'm not so sure about that bridge Jammin' Jungle is my favorite parade too and we missed it on our last trip (even though we spent almost 2 full days in AK). Maybe I'll need to try and concinve Rachel that she wants to go to WDW instead of DLR for her senior trip

oh you could do it Cheryl!! I don't think if would be hard to convince her to change her mind! we missed the parade both of our days there too! oh well, next time!

A great update! Yay on riding EE 4 times and seeing Goofy!

I'm glad you managed to get on the tour after all the mix up! It looks like you had a great time.

Lovely pics of FOTLK - can't wait to see that show

it was fun to ride it that many times, esp twice in a row! you definately need to see FotLK, its amazing! we are actually going to see it on Broadway this summer when we go to NYC!!!

WOw I love AK... and that trek looked like so much fun! I didn't make it onto Everest which is something I wanted to ride, but it broke down with my DH and DS at the top! and so I didn't get a chance Glad that was so much fun!

that must of been an adventure for them....we got stuck on something too later in our trip .... stay tuned for details!
hope you get to ride it next time, its a great coaster!

What an awesome adventure for you and Megan. Nice to be able to take the time to just be together having fun! Doesn't happen often enough at our house. Can't wait to see more!

it was so nice to get away from reality and have fun together!

Your first AK day with a visit to HI for dinner then DTW thrown in was like a trip around the world in one day!

Oh, the Wild Africa Trek looks awesome! My husband said we'll have to take our grandson on it when we take him to WDW. I see that the minimum age is 8 and there appears to be one girl on your trek who is younger and shorter than Megan. Did you notice if that girl was able to handle the bridges OK? Jason is average height for his age and unless that changes in the next 2 years I can't imagine him being able to handle some of those big gaps between boards. And by the time he is 8 (he'll be 6 the end of June) I wonder if I'll be able to handle the bridges

I just love FOTLK too. It is my favorite show at WDW. And the AK parade is my favorite parade. The Christmas version of it is even more spectacular.

it really is awesome...you will make some major grandparents points!!! the other girl was about 9, she was a bit afraid to cross the bridges, so they let her dad cross over with her, she didn't have problems with the gaps, I think it was more of the height. I'm sure you will be able to handle it, they give you plently of time to cross!
someday we hope to be at WDW during the Christmas season!

Sounds like you had an amazing day in Animal Kingdom. Lovin the custom made t-shirts.

We definately had an amazing trip...the shirts added to the fun!

thanks Judy, this is really cute....hope you have a great day too!

The trek looks like so much fun. I'm going to show them to DF when he gets home later so that maybe we can check it out some time in the future. I don't think anyone could ever tire of the FotLK, its such a wonderful show.

I love DTD, it gives you the Disney dose without having to go to the parks. And like I told you I always end up getting an ornament from the Christmas shop.

Looks like another wonderful day.
The African Safari Trek looks cool but I can skip the bridge that looks to scary for me

the funny thing is that the same CM was there and recognized us each time...she would of given us more FP's if she had any (the FP machine was empty by our 3rd ride)

How great is that. Those shirts do look awesome.

Hi there,
Sorry it's been a few days since I have been here. This has been a crazy week and the time I was able to get on here...I did my TR and you know how long that takes. I hope all is well. I haven't read your AK day yet. I want to take it all in(can not wait to read and see the African Trek) and Scott is upstairs waiting to watch AI. I promise...I will read it tomorrow. Just wanted to come here to say hi.

 

[that's nice]

I wanted to do something different to celebrate Megan's birthday...so I created a 6 x 6 flag for each country....we then asked a KidCot CM to write in their language "Happy Birthday"

she had a lot of fun getting the messages...the US and UK were a bit anticlimatic though...since they were in english

These are amazing!!! What an awesome idea!!!!!

Love your AK day!!!! The trek looks like it was really fun- getting up close to all the animals. I'm jealous- 4 TIMES on EE????

We love Ohana but I always leave there soooo full!!! Love your route to DTD! I need to remember that one! Sorry you couldn't ride the balloon. I hope to do that someday!


Great updates!!

you really have to go on the trek, its such a different way to see the park!

I love DTD, it gives you the Disney dose without having to go to the parks. And like I told you I always end up getting an ornament from the Christmas shop.

I agree, when we lived in S. CA we would drive in for a Sat night and hang out at DTD, go to Goofy's kitchen for dinner, listen to all the live music they have, Megan was about 4 and she would dance her way through DTD! we started the ornament thing our first trip, so its a must do!!

Looks like another wonderful day.
The African Safari Trek looks cool but I can skip the bridge that looks to scary for me

it really looks worse than it is! it doesn't swing very much!

How great is that. Those shirts do look awesome.

we loved our shirts, Ellen did a great job on them!!

Great updates!!

thanks Tim! is Ana tall enough to go on EE yet? I'm sure she'd love it!!!
O'hana's was good, such a waste of food though, not sure if we'd go back at this point!
will just add the balloon ride to our wish list for next time! the ride to DTD was fun on the boat, relaxing and getting to see Old Key West!

Love, Love, Love the country cards you made. What a great idea!

The Animal Kingdom Trek looked so cool. I am so glad after the initial glitch they were able to make sure you could do this. What a cool way to safari!

I love that you all rode EE four times...I WISH We rode it once and it is a great ride...next time I am trying for four times just like you guys!

Loving your TR. It is so fun to follow along and see what you all did.

We are working with our friends in Seattle to finalize a few things so I will get in touch with you later this week via PM to see if we can meet up. I am so excited about it!!!

Hope you have a lovely Mother's Day. You are an incredible mother with such a wonderful heart. I hope you and Megan have a special day together.

I finally got caught up. Wow!! What a day you had. I can now see why they have an age limit on the trek. Not sure i could do the bridge, but the whole adventure looked really cool. Lunch looked yummy too. I know my girls would of loved to do that. I can't believe they made your date wrong but happy that they still got you in. I can't believe you rode EE 4x...it's like me and Test Track. I just couldn't get enough of it. I wanted to go to Ohana on our trip, but for breakfast but never had the chance. DTD looked fun too.
