Spectrolee‘s First DVC trip - Day Ten, Animal Kingdom


Back to Animal Kingdom today for some more Safari fun and Wilderness Explorer stickers



I think I may have posted this last year, but I love these dinosaur benches






A T-Rex tooth



Pluto was at the dig site



He waited for Joni coming down the slide






Digging fossils



Waiting for the safari



We saw the baby giraffe today



The gorilla was out at the end of the safari






I had the beef and lamb gyro from Harambe market






We had fastpasses again for Flight of Passage
At my turn the ride had a fault, so we were told to stay in the room before the ride and watch the video one more time. Then when we went through someone before us had puked on the ride, so we had to go into another room (this time repeating both videos)
We finally got through again, but this time one of the restraints didn't work, so we had to wait until they found the lady somewhere else to ride.

But . . . Still worth the wait. An absolutely breathtaking ride.

We stopped at Nomads for a cocktail while the rain was on (Joni got a lovely light up flower in her mocktail)

We called it a day and wandered out the park, checking out some of the enclosures en route



There is absolutely no need for a real fire in Florida in September ha!



The pool was closed due to lightning nearby, so plan b was to freshen up and see some fireworks
We had a sing song session on the monorail



We grabbed dinner at Captain Cooke's at the Polynesian
The menu here is amazing for a quick service
Isabel had the coconut seafood stew



I had the Asian noodles with shrimp
The portions are a lot bigger than they look in these photos



We grabbed some drinks and headed to the monorail.
The plan was to go back to the Grand Floridian for the fireworks starting at 8pm
There was a problem with the monorail though, so we headed down to the beach at the Poly instead



Joni had fun running around while we waited






There was a fabulous moon tonight



Joni loved them. She asked for her headphones at first, but took them off as she got used to the noise.



The happy firework dance!









Time to go to sleep - Gran doing a bedtime story while we waited for the monorail.

We are really taking things slowly this trip. Not our usual style, but it's been nice to go with the flow each evening.
