May 11 – day 5

We sleep til 9AM. After all, we were out til after midnight last night! Coffee and cookies are the norm. :goodvibes

Before I tell you about the rest of my day, a thought of how lucky (blessed) we are to be here. Haven’t seen a car in 4 days. Being entertained, everyone in a good mood, the weather couldn’t be better. Come on, someone pinch me. Is this real? Only those who have experienced it know what I am trying to say. Okay, enough mushy stuff – back to my trip report.

We decide, because the sky is a little white, not perfectly blue (gasp!) :scared1: that we will hit the Animal Kingdom. Off to the bus stop, meet another nice couple. Soon as we start to talk the bus arrives. We tell them not to miss Tarzan Rocks. My bride, Judy Marie is feeling really strong on this trip. She’s walking fast and not complaining of any pain at all. Disney knows how to make you walk all day with a big smile on your face (even if your feet are screaming at you to slow down).

We get off the bus and again my Mizuno’s are at full throttle. We just have to make it to Tarzan Rocks. We love this show and think it should be on Broadway.

Jude stops for a Mickey Bar (for energy - the sugar from the cookies is wearing off :mickeybar ) Then off to Primeval Whirl, Dinosaur, Bugs Life, Kilamanjaro Safari, Lion King (we saw the Broadway version and this is equally great). Went back to see Tarzan Rocks a second time! :rockband:

The sky is darkening as we ride Kali River Rapids. It is now 5PM and time to head to the bus. The skys open up as we get to our room. I write this report as we have some beers on the terrace watching the lightning. :drinking:

Now another executive decision – dinner. Let you know how we end up later. As of now we have a priority seating at Spoodles.

Where else but at Disney can you enjoy a thunderstorm? It’s like the imagineers designed the thunder, lighting and rain just for us to enjoy.

With the rain pouring down, we decide to stay in and go back to Cape May buffet (the cookies have nothing to do with it!) It is directly underneath our room. We go down the stairs and don’t even have to walk to the elevator. We again receive our 20% discount – what a bargain!

The rain stopped after dinner and we took a little walk around the hotel. The view of the Boardwalk across the way never gets old! (and hopefully, neither will we).

Off to dreamland (sleep, not another park!)
