The day after Thanksgiving, we headed to the Animal Kingdom.
The Tree of Life has hundreds of animals carved into it...so cool!
That is Expedition Everest way back behind us.
We went on the African Safari first, but not before we grabbed Fast Passes to return a little later.
There was only one hippo above ground.
The happier hippos.
Look at those snappers!
The giraffes were friendlier with the safari truck ahead of us.
Love the ripple of hair along the neck.
Wildebeests are such neat looking creatures.
The vultures stayed close to keep these rhinos clean.
This was on our second time through the safari with our friends Paul and Janice and their twins.
These flamingos were loud AND stinky!
The cheetahs were lazy.
And so were the lions. We didn't get to see much of them.
Then we walked through the Pangani Forrest and got to see the hippos from another vantage point. Check out those snaggle teeth!
Our kids were thrilled to be sharing the Animal Kingdom with two of their friends.
African Cichlids circled around the sleeping hippos.
We LOVE meerkats!
This gorilla has really let herself go. She's in her 30s and has a belly almost dragging the ground. There aren't any babies in there, either.
We went on a DinoLand ride in the dark which was jerky, loud and scary. Seeing the dinosaur skeleton beforehand was really the best part.
While the daddies took Owen and one of the twins on a tilt-a-whirl roller coaster, I took Chloe and the other twin on a flying dino ride.
The girls sat in the seat behind me.
