| Re: My Anniversary/ See Donna again, meet Cindy trip! Day 3 Animal Kingdom and finally meeting up with Donna and Dan! We went up to concierge for breakfast and I got a cappucino and Muffin got a glass of juice and a pastry. [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/yuma.gif[/img] Then we headed out to Animal Kingdom for EMH. The park was not at all crowded and the temperature was perfect. We watched the opening ceremonies and then followed the characters to Kilamanjaro Safari. We got right on and saw more animals than I had ever seen before! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/woot.gif[/img] It was a wonderful ride!! Next we headed over to Dinosaur! We, once again, were saved in the end and the photo was so cute that we had to buy it! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/love.gif[/img] Then we went on Chester and Hester. Muffin thought it was totally lame. [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif[/img] Then we went on Triceratops Spin and Muffin, again, proclaimed it BLECH! In short, he did not care for Dinoland. [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/082502no_prv.gif[/img] After this, we headed over to Kali River Rapids. We both love this attraction and got a nice soaking! Then we walked through Africa and stopped in all of the shops, although, I am not sure that we bought anything while here. Still, they are fun shops to look through! About this time, Donna called and we decided to meet up at Epcot around 3PM. We went to see FOLK and then It's Tough to Be a Bug and headed out of Animal Kingdom. It was only around 11:30, so we had time to go back for a swim before going to Epcot. After swimming and changing for dinner, we drove over to Epcot and on the way in, I knew I spotted Donna and Dan. We stopped in the bathroom before looking for them and who did I see sitting on the bench???? It was Dan!! I was so excited to see Donna again and Dan is an absolute doll!! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/thewave.gif[/img] We headed over to Soarin' and got a fastpass and once again, had some snacks and drinks at the Sunshine Seasons food fair. We chatted the entire time and before we knew it, it was time to ride Soarin'! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/woot.gif[/img] After Soarin', we walked around World Showcase and went through France and Japan. After seeing the drummers, we were all dripping swerat and decide to try and check in early for dinner. A Friendship boat was right there waiting and after docking, we headed over to the Coral Reef. We checked in at 6PM and they told us that there would just be a short wait. [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/thewave.gif[/img] You guys, this entire dinner experience was magical!! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/fairy2.gif[/img] First of all, we got to sit right in the front and center of the aquarium! We honestly had the best table in the house! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif[/img] It was a gorgeous view!! The company could not have been better and the food was delicious!! The entire dinner took two and a half hours and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it!! We laughed ourselves silly and had some great conversation! After that, I think Muffin and Dan were bonded for life! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] THEN! THey brought out that Chocolate Wave thingy for our Anniversary which was to die for!! We happily split it with Donna and Dan. This honestly was my absolute favorite dinner of the whole trip! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/love.gif[/img] Then we headed off to Illuminations and Muffin was pretty tricky! There weren't many good spots left, but he managed to snag one by going through the gift shop at the entrance to World Showcase. We had a wonderful view and it was a truly awesome Anniversary day! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/love.gif[/img] We bid our adieus to Donna and Dan and I told them I would see them tomorrow, after dropping Muffin off at the airport! We headed back for our usual nightcap and a good night's sleep. Next: Our Sunrise Safari experience, Downtown Disney and dropping Muffin off |

| Re: My Anniversary/ See Donna again, meet Cindy trip! Finished! [b] I did manage to find a few pictures! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/thewave.gif[/img] Here ya' go!   Heavy conversation here!   Shady looking, eh?  A diver!   The Chocolate Wave  Something fishy is going on around here! Now on to the Sunrise Safari! We got up at 6AM to get ready for the Sunrise Safari. We got upstairs to the concierge lounge at 6:30 for some juice and coffee and spoke with the concierge dude a little about our 'expedition'. Then we went downstairs to the lobby to meet up with the other guests who would be going on this adventure. We all got name tags and were boarded on busses and we went into Animal Kingdom on some crazy back road that I couldn't remember again if I wanted to! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img] Anyway, we saw some stuff there that was pretty cool but we aren't allowed to talk about it. [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/whistling2.gif[/img] Then we all boarded the Kilamanjaro Safari vehicles and our guide told us that this was going to be a little different then what we were used to. She said that we were going to take our time, stop whenever someone wanted to and point out and talk about whatever we saw. [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/woot.gif[/img] We were even allowed to stand on the seats to get pictures!! You guys, this is an amazing way to see the Safari and I feel very fortunate to have done this! If you ever stay at concierge at AKL, this is an absolute must do!! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/love.gif[/img] It was wonderful! Then, we went to an awesome breakfast buffet at Tusker House. We had our own private room in the back and we even had the chef come out and explain the food! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] Then we pigged out! I tried this African egg dish with some kind of sausage that was wonderful and I also had some deep fried french toast. [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/yuma.gif[/img] Muffin had a special platter prepared for him because he is lactose intolerant and he said it was delicious! In short, I would do this whole experience again in a heartbeat! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/love.gif[/img] [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/love.gif[/img] [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/love.gif[/img] Well, Muffin had to be at the airport by 1PM and it was around 10AM now. So, we decided to head off to Downtown Disney and do some shopping for the kids. We got a few trinkets and then we took off for MCO. I got Muffin safely to the gate and we said our goodbyes and he got home just fine. This is where Donna's TR kicks in and since she pretty much covers everything we did- and well, I will conclude mine here! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/thewave.gif[/img] I had a wonderful time with Donna and Dan. They treated me like an old friend the entire time and I never once felt like a third wheel. I also had fun with Tom and Cindy! Tom is quite a character! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/082502yes_prv.gif[/img] My favorite memory is of the night we went to Pleasure Island! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/rofl2.gif[/img] It was fun from beginning to end and I can't believe we closed the place down!! It felt like about an hour! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] This was a terrific trip and I can't wait to go back again!! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/smileysanta.gif[/img] Thanks for reading you guys!! In the next post, I will show you guys some pictures from the safari ride. |
