When the show was over people started crowding towards the exit. James was like "well I guess we'd better go." I convinced him that it would be OK if we hung back for awhile and reminded him that even though the park was officially closed, the stores stayed open for a bit so we might as well...

By the time our Minnie Van brought us back to the Beach Club it was downpour raining. Since it was only sprinkling when we left AK and we were now indoors nice and dry I counted this another win in our crazy streak of weather luck. We went to our room to decompress and try to figure out what...

It was somewhere around 4:30 when we were done with FoP. Maddie desperately wanted to take a look at the Banshees in the gift shop. She'd been spotting them on shoulders throughout our trip and now that we had experienced the ultimate ride she just had to see them up close. I agreed that we...

It's so hard to know what's going to hit you until you try it and then unfortunately it can ruin your day:depressed:. I was so nervous about FoP then it went great for me, but I can hardly stand spinning in the teacups anymore. I'm fine on Star Tours too but that Harry Potter ride just about...

When we finished our snacks, we started walking toward Africa to catch a Lion King show. The closer we got to Pandora, the less Maddie could contain herself. If I didn't at least let her look in Pandora she was going to burst! I checked the time and we were good to take a quick 10 minute...

The timing of the show was perfect. We still had plenty of time left in our FP window to ride Dinosaur so we headed back that way. Front row! None of us look very scared, more like "huh, that's interesting":cool: The ride was fun but for some reason not as thrilling as I remembered. I was...

After that bit of fun (I don't think it take too much to amuse us:p) we headed on to Flights of Wonder. A goal for this day was to see this show and the Lion King show since we hadn't had time for either one on our last trip. We skipped Nemo this time around because that was the one we did get...

We convinced Xander to leave the Dinosaur playground early enough so we could make it over to the Flights of Wonder show. We walked over to the stroller parking area and discovered the amazing phenomenon of "Stroller Squirrels"o_O. This has to happen all the time, there are strollers...

Thank you! Your reports with your mom are always so fun, they helped inspire me to write this one:).

We were really on the fence about going this time but Maddie was so enthusiastic about our "tradition" that I couldn't say no. I would definitely go back for breakfast again, it was such a different experience!

I really enjoyed following your report! Sorry the plane ride home ended on such a sad note:(.

More photos from the Boneyard. We talked Xander into touching the water but he was very careful to keep his shoes dry! This one made me think of my favorite picture from the first time we visited this place with Maddie in 2011:inlove:. Here's what she was doing there this time. She...

The baby tigers had just been born recently so the cubs and Mama Tiger were in a private location. There was a cast member out with an ipad for anyone who was interested in seeing the video of the babies. I'm a sucker for kitties of all kinds so I stopped and chatted with her. I haven't seen...

After our breakfast we had about 30 minutes before our first FP at Everest, our next one for Dinosaur wouldn't open until 1:10 so the plan was to walk the Maharajah trail first then go on EE later in the FP window then head over to Dinoland so Xander could play at the Boneyard before our next...

I'm a tiny bit worried about Maddie's love of bad guys;). At least she has the good sense to not like Kylo Ren:joyfull:. James can be so picky about his shirts, I was surprised he went for such a "loud" one!

Our Rainforest Cafe ADR was at 9:45am and we just made it. I don't think being late would have been much of a problem because it was really empty in there. I've never been to the Rainforest Cafe when it hasn't been packed, but of course we've never had breakfast there either. I didn't realize...

After our safari, I calculated that we had about 20 minutes before we needed to go back to the front of the park for our breakfast ADR at the Rainforest Cafe. I hoped this was enough time to walk the Gorilla Falls trail. Maddie had been disappointed on our last trip that we hadn't had a chance...

...and some more animals Kitties doing what they do best. Very enjoyable Safari! I'm going to loop back and throw in some pictures from when we were waiting in line for KS. I missed them when I was uploading photos earlier! sweet face:inlove: face of sarcastic teen humoring her mother;)...

More animals!

After our family photos the first goal of the day was the Kilimanjaro Safari. I figured that it would be a walk on during the extra magic hour with Flights of Passage drawing in the bulk of the early visitors. This guess turned out to be a good one. We passed the line for FoP on our way to...
