Disney: Day 2 & 3

Sorry for the delay in posting, but I had some issues to deal with yesterday morning. As many of you know, I have Great Danes. Well, my 12 year old dane Delilah passed away yesterday morning around 5 am. So I had to get everything taken care of while being 12 hours away. Fortunately for me, my mom used to work for a vet and was able to arrange everything for me. It is a very tough loss for the family, which I am sure will become more real once we are back home. All I can say is that she was a great dog and had a wonderful life.

Enough of that, let's get on with Disney.

Day 2 found us at Animal Kingdom. We arrived right after they opened. From there we headed to Expedition Everest where we grabbed a fast pass and then jumped in line. After riding we headed to Dinosaur, which is one of my daughter's favorite rides, even though she keeps her eyes closed on parts of it. We spent our time moving back and forth between these two rides until my brother and his family showed up around noon. We then hit some of the things that my niece would enjoy before they headed to Rainforest Cafe for lunch. I will say that she did not like It's a Bugs Life. She totally lost it and had to be taken out by her mom.

After they met back up with us we headed to the Safari. There were quite a few animals out in spite of the heat. We got to see the baby elephant and baby rhino along the way. We then headed to the petting zoo for a bit where my son and niece got to pet a baby alligator.

After that my niece had had enough and was ready to go back to the hotel. We hung out for a while longer. We spent the remainder of our afternoon riding everest, which only had a 5 minute wait. We were pretty much just walking on. They actually shut down the normal line and just used the fast pass line. Amazing.

Here are a few pics.

Yesterday, day 3, found us at the Magic Kingdom. We started off our day heading to grab fast passes for the Peter Pan ride. When I got the fast passes, we were given bonus fast passes for the Philharmagic. Awesome! We were joined by my wifes cousin and her family, which includes their 6 year old son. So it was a blast for them since it was his first trip.

We hit all of the big rides which included all of the mountains, Splash, Space, and Big Thunder. It was awesome.

As we were riding the Transit Authority we went into Space Mountain and the lights were on! So, I took a few pics.

All in all, it was a good day in spite of how it started. So here are a few pics.

That's it for now. I'll post more later.

Yeti Out!!
