From Pacific to Atlantic - August 2019: Day 9 (Animal Kingdom)
We got breakfast at the Boardwalk again this morning - crumb cake, brownie, banana bread and chocolate croissant. Another Animal Kingdom day today so we hopped on the bus and arrived there not long after it had opened. Our first FastPass was for Kilimanjaro Safaris so we headed round to Africa. We loved the Safari as usual, and saw lots of animals. Fat unicorn (rhino!) In picture above. Hippos underwater. Apparently although they don't look it they are very aggressive and kill more people than any of the other animals. Also, they don't swim very well they just walk along the bottom (not sure what they do when it gets too deep!). Crocodile or Alligator - not sure which! Giraffe far away. Giraffe close up! Baby giraffe! Elephants. A flamboyance of Flamingoes. Lion lying down. White rhinos. We had a FastPass for the Festival of the Lion King but it wasn't for a little while and we noticed that a show was starting in about 3 minutes so we took a chance and hurried up to the entrance. They took us in quickly and put us in reserved seating right at the front! The seats were amazing and we loved the show (apart from DS who doesn't like musicals - I don't know how he is related to me!). We had dole whips and dole whip sundaes as a snack. We walked round to Pandora now for our Flight of Passage FastPass. This was amazing again - we all enjoyed it a lot, we are so lucky to get the access to book FastPasses early with the onsite hotel. We went to Satuli canteen for lunch. DH, DS and I all enjoyed our lunch (made a change from burgers!) but DD didn't and only ate a couple of mouthfuls. Caitlin bought a new Pandora hat with ears. We walked out to the buses - we had to wait a while this time and three Yacht and Beach Club buses came and went which we were wishing we had taken and walked round. We got back to the hotel and relaxed in the room for a while then went down to the Boardwalk for a drink. We booked Trattoria al Forno this evening - we fancied an Italian and it is only on the Boardwalk so easy to get to! DH, DS and I all had lasagna, DD had spaghetti and meatballs. DD polished hers off, I enjoyed the lasagna but it was very rich - DH was not as keen and DD didn't like it, he said it wasn't a patch on the lasagna his gran gets for him from Costco!
