Day 2 - Animal Kingdom
The day started off a little later being about 10:30am when we arrived at the park. We where so tired from the day before! We grabbed a map and set out to the animal sarfari. The sarfari car tour is very similar to the one in Bali (for all you guys that have done it). You sit in a big open truck with no windows and they take we around to each section and show you animals such as Elephants, Alligators, Giraffes, Zebras, Monkeys, Hippos and Rhinos to name a few. The tour went for about 15 mins or so.
After that we went off to the Dino USA section of the park. We went on the ride called Dinosaur. You sit in space car and they "take you back to the past" to collect a dinosaure. It was pretty much to coolest thing i've been on. With dinosaurs jumping out at you scaring you while the car your in goes super fast and is all bumpy.
The wait for all the rides are so long, getting longer the later the day goes by. We got fastpass ticket (meaning you collect a ticket and the time it says on the ticket you come back then and go in the fast lane) for Expedition Everest. Pretty much your on a roller coaster tho massive mountains looking out for a Yeti! It went so fast but was aweseome and worth the wait :)
After lunch at the dinosaur cafe we headed to Rafiki World. You have to board a train to get to the section of the park. Once there you can pat animals. I got to pat a goat and i had to forse Liam to pat a piggy and a lamb it was funny since the place is full with kids under 5 :P
Other then that we just walked around looking at all the cool stuff they have there.
Later that night we went to Downtown Disney. It's about 5 minutes away from our hotel. Theres heaps of awesome things to do. We only saw about half of it. There's a massive disney toy shop. Inside its like a childs dream ( or kid brain like us ) There is "Make your own Light Saber" section and "Make your own Mr Potato Head" section just to name a couple. There is also a giant lego store and Goofys Candy Shop.
We had dinner at T-Rex. The inside is AMAZING! Theres all different sections with huge dinosaurs, giant wolly mamoths, ice caves and the biggest octopus i've ever seen. The place was packed to the max and so freaken loud. We got a little excited at the cocktails and food menu :P lets just say it was an expensive meal.
Day 3 - Epcot
We woke up super early this morning, getting to the park at 9:30am. The line was pretty quick getting inside which was good. The first ride we got on was called Space Mission - Orange. It was the worst thing in the world. It's startes off in a small room where you get breifed on "your mission" you then get in your teams of 4. They take you into you small pod and you get strapped in with your team of 4. The screen comes down on top of you with a tiny sceen and space control panel infront of everyone. You "blast off" into space, spinning you a million miles an hour. At that point I was screaming to get out... but no they don't stop the ride and there is no emergency exit button. They change all the surrounding to make you feel like your off the ground and in space :( I started to cry... I was so embaressed. Worst start to our day.
After recovering from that we went on a couple of slow boat tour rides. One of them being a Finding Nemo one. Where you sit in a clam shell and it takes you though the coolest set. Exiting the ride you come into a big aquarium which has dolphins and giant fish.
For lunch I choose the coolest restaurant Akershus Royal Banquet Hall, but I dont think Liam agreed. As you walk in you have your photo taken with Belle. While waiting for your food to come out all the Disney Princesses come out and have photos with you at your table. It was pretty funny since we were really the only ones in there that didn't have small kids :P The food was awesome but yet again it was really expensive there but kinda worth it I think :P
After walking around exploring everything the park had to offer we headed for the exit only to see Goofy! We had to stop and take photos. He was AWESOME :P
Now we are just hanging out at the hotel. New epp of PPL is on in a hour ;) haha
Tomorrow we hit up Disney Hollywood Studios Park...
