I enjoy AK more every time I go. DH and I skipped it our first trip and we only went on our 2nd because we were with his parents and his mother is an animal lover. I'm terrified of birds so the first time I was there I was so apprehensive that I couldn't really enjoy it. Then the second time I went I wasn't worried about the bird issue and was really able to appreciate how beautiful and detailed the park is.
I hope this time we get to ride Kali - both times I've been there before it's been too cool.
