Our fourth park day was Animal Kingdom. I was so excited to see Pandora and ride Flight of Passage. I was also excited because I felt like we'd done a great job with our fast passes this day! We had fast passes for Flight of Passage, the Safari, and Everest. We were able to ride Navi River Journey at rope drop with no wait. The kids loved it. After that we walked toward Africa for rope drop again, (the first rope drop was just for Pandora). So we were able to ride Navi before the park even technically opened.
We headed to Gorilla Falls and did the bird watch area. Some of the kids were more into it than others.
We walked by the Hippo tank. We couldn't see it very well though.
We got the kids the Wilderness Explorers books and they were so into it.
It was so much fun watching them get so excited about earning badges.
We took the train out to Rafiki's Planet Watch. We earned more badges.
Barrett was so into it!
We made it to the "Affection Section" (petting zoo). We didn't get to stay as long as the kids wanted because we had to make it back for our Safari fast pass.
The Safari was a huge hit as always.
After the Safari we grabbed some lunch before our Flight of Passage fast pass. We ate at Flame Tree BBQ. I got the BBQ fries and they were delicious! After lunch we headed back to Pandora to ride Flight of Passage. I was so excited to ride this ride. Hope and I rode together first while the guys stayed with the kids. It was amazing!
While the guys rode we took the kids to earn more badges! Barrett could have done this all day long! It started raining while the guys were on Flight of Passage but we had one more fast pass for Everest. So we threw on our rain gear and headed to Asia.
John and Hope rode first while we stayed with the kids. Madelyn had been singing her little heart out and we had the rain cover on the strollers well at some point the singing turned into crying and I had no idea. When I finally realized it her Wilderness Explorers book was in a puddle soaking wet and she was devastated. I felt so bad because I had no idea how long it'd been in the puddle. After they rode John rode it again with me since Patrick didn't care to ride. After Everest, we decided to call it a day because the rain did not appear to be letting up. We had early dinner reservations at 'OHANA. (We found out later that Kylie Jenner and her family were at Animal Kingdom the same day but we didn't see them.)
We decided to grab a group picture in front of the Tree of Life before we headed out. We just had to laugh because the weather had been such a crapshoot the whole week.
John and Me on Everest! It was so much fun, even in the rain.
We left the park and headed to the resort to change into dry clothes really quick before we went to dinner. We took the bus to the Magic Kingdom then hopped on the monorail to the Polynesian. 'OHANA was our favorite meal from the last trip. The food was great this time but our server wasn't and it was so disappointing. We enjoyed it though. After dinner we headed back to the resort for early bedtimes so we could rope drop our last day at Magic Kingdom and early morning magic hour.
