Disney World Update VI

On our last day in the most Magical Place on earth we went back to the Animal Kingdom, so the kids could ride Expedition Everest once more and maybe we could catch a few of the shows we missed earlier in the week.

When we arrived the crows were considerably lighter and we walked over to the Expedition Everest and we all four rode it together. Once we got off Emily wanted to ride again, but Jacob was done with it. So I went back onto the ride with Emily while the boys hung back and shopped. After we were done Josh rode it with Emily while Jacob and I shopped. So Emily rode it 5 times total and loves to tell anybody who will listen how many times she rode the coolest ride at Disney World.

After our time at the roller coaster we headed over and caught the Nemo show. It was SO cool. It was all puppets with people in the stage next to them, singing. It was just really neat. Once that was over we walked right onto It’s Tough to Be A Bug, which is one of my least favorite shows. It is a 3D show with smells, air, pokes and prods. Not really my idea of fun. Josh and the kids liked it, but me…not so much.

We head over to Dinoland to try to ride one last ride, but Jacob is too short so we play a few carnival games just to kill time. We are all starting to get a little depressed and the exhaustion from the week is quickly catching up to us.

We have our last lunch and start working our way out of the park. As we are almost to the exit we find Lilo and Stitch and stop to have our pictures made. Jacob will have nothing to do with it. It was very typical Jacob. We hit the last gift shop on the way out and Jacob spends the rest of his money. He buys a Mickey Mouse pirate ship play set. One piece has been destroyed by the dogs already, but the rest still gets a lot of play at bath time.



We arrive back at our hotel to wait for our car to pick us up and Emily plays with some of the chalk they have on the sidewalk outside our hotel. As we load everything into the car we are all a little sad and decide then that we will be back.

Once we got to the airport we realize that we are about to stand in the longest lines of the week: Security.

Looks like a delightful trip. I don't ride the coasters. I'm a baby...but my family loves them!

I'm excited to see all your posts about DW! We are going in a few months and I am feeling overwhelmed so maybe reading what you did will help me out. There is SO MUCH INFORMATION. I had no idea.
