Our Fantasy Vacation Day 3

Day 3 - Animal Kingdom

Another rope drop day. We headed out bright and early to Animal Kingdom. Our plan was to get Fast Passes for the safari ride and ride the water ride while waiting. We accomplished just that.

Katelin loved the water ride, until she got wet. We got some really great pictures of animals on the safari ride. They even removed the cheese factor from the ride. We were no longer chasing poachers.


We then headed to Camp Minnie Mickey so we could meet a few characters and then see the Lion King Show.  Was a great show.  After that, it was time for lunch at Rainforest Cafe.  It was so nice sitting in a nice air conditioned space and being waited on.  And it was not much more than eating quick service at the parks.  Katelin loved most of it until the gorillas went off and starting hooting and hollering. 

After that, it was time for Dinoland to ride the only ride she was big enough for, Triceratops Spin (kind of like Dumbo, but with dinos).  On the way, we stopped to meet Pooh, Tigger and Eyeore.  No Piglet, which makes me mad, but a whole different story.  After this, we decided we were done with the parks for the day and headed out for some rest and swimming at the pool.  Katelin took a 3 hour nap that afternoon.  Boy was she tired.  We then headed to target for some last minute supplies before the cruise and to find some dinner.  Katelin really wanted a hot dog, so our search for that began.  We ended up at Fuddrucker's which was good, but took us about 40 minutes to get out of the parking lot.  Whoever designed putting a whole bunch of restaurants together with only one way out was an idiot.  We headed back to the condo to pack and get ready for boarding the Fantasy the next day.
