Disney - Part 2

More on our trip from Disney World - the fun begins now!!!!

Wednesday was the Magic Kingdom - we had high hopes!!  Looking back we should have started here.  By this point the boys were untrusting of our pleas that "this ride is really safe!!"  The highlight was riding our much anticipated monorail ride to the park.  This was a great time.

  Teacups and Carousel with AJ

We managed to get them on Dumbo (15 times), the Barnstormer (which is actually a nice little roller coaster - see video!), the speedway, and Astro Orbitor.  We took them on the People Mover which went through dark tunnels and scared them the rest of the day.  We finished up at Tom Sawyers Island where we departed from Uncle Jon & Aunt Cori.  Again, hoping they'd enjoy the Electrical Parade they demanded we leave after the sun went down (even though we took them back to nap mid-day).

Sugar overload at 3pm 

Thursday was nice.  We went to Animal Kingdom and had a nice day.  Despite leaving the stroller behind, we walked a lot and saw lots of great animals.  We even convinced the boys to go on the Safari where we saw lions, giraffes, elephants, hippos, and gators, among others.  It was a really fun experience.   

 

  

Train ride from Asia - Ben was really curious about this engine!!

The boys also went to a petting area where they were able to brush some goats and pigs.  Ben was tentative (kept watching the head of the animal in attempt to forecast his next move) but it was a successful experience.  Top it off with cookies, ice cream, and carnival games, this park was a hit!
