Day 4 at Disney World











Today was Animal Kingdom day. Again, we woke up a little late (darn time change) but made it to animal kingdom by 10:00. We rode Expedition Everest a few times (5 minute wait) and Kali River Rapids quite a few times (no wait). We were soaked after the rapids, but decided to go ride the Kalimanjaro Safari. It was warm outside so we figured we would dry. The safari had about a 10 minute wait and we were off. We saw lots of animals and it was nice to relax for a few minutes. By the time we finished that ride I was starting to get cold, so we took the bus back to the resort, grabbed some lunch and went to the room. I dried off, put on some new clothes and curled up in a blanket because I couldn't get warm. I dozed for about an hour and when I woke up, I had a sore throat and ached everywhere. Kim so nicely shared her cold with me. But..we're at Disney so I got started taking my Air Born and off we went to Hollywood Studios again. The crowds were still low, so we did a little bit of shopping (okay, maybe a lot of shopping). The great part is that they send your purchases to your resort so you don't have to drag them around with you. We rode Tower of Terror over and over (walk on lines), Kim rode Rock N Roller Coaster by herself (I have to admit in my feeling horrible state I chickened out). We walked around the park after that taking pictures. When Fantasmic started we hurried out of the park so we could beat the rush and took the bus back to the resort, then to DTD again on the boat. After a "little" shopping we went to giradelli (sp) ice cream shop. We each had hot fudge sundays, it was $16 for both, but they were really good. By this time we are realizing that we really weren't in Disney World, we were in Money World (LOL). I was finally worn out so we took the boat back to the resort, then stayed up talking til 3AM (which is really on midnight at home)
