With the Orlando Eye down for the count Joe and I put our heads together to come up with a plan B. Now when you are in Orlando and your BFF works for Disney World, what is the most logical conclusion for a Plan B? Why, go to one of the parks , of course!
My very favorite park is Animal Kingdom because of the animals. We figured we could get The Kilimanjaro Safari ride in and maybe the Lion King Show before the park closed for the day.
I love the bridge where we can see the Mountain. I always have to stop and take a picture there. Usually there’s a park photographer too because its such a popular vista.
The park was pretty slow so we were able to get on the safari ride pretty quickly.
A lot of the animals were out of sight waiting for the evening feeding but that meant that I got to see some that I’ve missed in the past.
There was a lovely bright colored bird. The driver told us its name but I don’t remember it now.
Of course the elephants can’t hide
and there were giraffes.
The best were the big cats and of the big cats, the lions.
We even got a roar out of the male before he laid down for his nap!
Too soon it was time to move on if we wanted to see the Lion King Show.
