Monday we headed to Animal Kingdom in the morning and we got there right after they opened - we planned a little bit better because of the chaos of the morning before. Justin's step-mom didn't join us at Animal Kingdom because she wasn't feeling well, and a cool front had come through that made it a little chilly at the park this day.

We caught a few shows - one was a 3D attraction that was using characters from A Bug's Life and the other was a live action version of Finding Nemo. I think the shows were only kind of interesting to my kids - they would rather be riding rides!
As far as rides, there aren't a whole lot at Animal Kingdom - we rode the Triceratop Spin (just like the Flying Dumbo ride at Magic Kingdom) and we were the first to get to see Winnie the Pooh and Tigger (who the boys LOVED).

Jacob was tall enough to ride the DINOSAURS ride so he went with Justin, my dad, and Justin's dad while my mom and I let the twins play on a playground area and then my mom and I rode while all the guys stayed at the playground.

After playing, riding a couple rides, seeing a couple shows and seeing Pooh and Tigger the twins really needed naps and everyone was hungry for lunch. We headed back to the resort and hung out for a couple hours.
Because the twins took later naps than usual, we were rushing back to Animal Kingdom to try go on the Safari ride. Animal Kingdom was closing kind of early and we didn't want to miss that but we also didn't really want to go back to Animal Kingdom another day just for that one ride.
We got stuck because of a parade in the park and we weren't sure if we would make it before the last safari run, but luckily we made it just in time. The sun was already starting to set and it appears that we left our camera (or the battery on it had died) so we only had a cellphone camera to get pictures on the safari so sadly our pictures didn't turn out all that great.
Speaking of pictures - there are a number of things that I KNOW we took pictures of, or had the Disney photographers take pictures of, but we don't have now. We've checked our cellphones pics (which automatically upload to our Google accounts), the Memory Maker pictures and our personal camera pictures. Sadness that it seems like we lost some pictures somewhere along the way.
