Animal Kingdom!!

 This is another post about our Anniversary celebration at Disney World! Animal Kingdom was awesome!! It was Lindsay's favorite park we visited all week. I thought it was awesome as well. It is completely unique from any of the other Disney parks.

 The Tree of Life is the iconic image of Animal Kingdom! I don't think they consulted Lehi on the design though...Anyway, it is an awesome tree that has figures of animals all throughout its base and trunk. It is amazing!

 This is the entrance to Asia, one of the lands in Animal Kingdom. Disney does an amazing job of transporting you to the different areas of the world you visit in Animal Kingdom. Asia was probably our favorite land.

 One of the reasons Asia was our favorite was Expedition Everest! You may not be able to tell but inside that mountain in the distance is an awesome roller coaster ride. The coaster takes you pretty much to the top of that mountain and it provides a beautiful view of the park and the surrounding landscape.

 Lindsay is a little nervous about going on this ride because the Yeti lurks inside the mountain! Hopefully we don't run into him!

 In Asia, there was a cool bird show called "Flights of Wonder". One of the birds they displayed was this bald eagle. Patriotism wells inside me just looking at it...

 They also brought out these beautiful parrots. Very impressive plumage!

 Another shot of Lindsay and I near the Tree of Life. The foliage and the scenery around the entire Animal Kingdom park was gorgeous.

 They have characters too in Animal Kingdom. It's Flik from Bug's Life! He tried to steal Lindsay from me after this picture was taken. Not cool man.

 Animatronic Simba at the amazing "Festival of the Lion King" show in Animal Kingdom.

 "Festival of the Lion King" had acrobats, fire breathers, jugglers, singing, dancing, aerial acrobatics, and more. It was probably the coolest Disney show we saw at any of the parks.

 Welcome to the African savannah! This was one of the cool shots from our ride on Kilimanjaro Safaris. Disney has created their own animal reserve that looks just like Africa. We saw giraffes, elephants, rhinos, hippos, and more on our safari. Way cool!

 This picture is out of order but we are making our ascent up the mountain on Expedition Everest here. If that grandma behind us can do this ride, then so can we!
