Day 2 photos


We started today at 4.30am! Darned body clocks. We went to Chef Mickeys at the Contemporary Hotel for breakfast and had a great time meeting all the characters.


After breakfast we went to the Aniimal Kingdom, which was lovely. Disney really are good at theming all ther parks so well. The photo below is from the Asia section.

And this is Devine, the stilt artist who walks between Africa and Asia.

This is the Tree of Life, it sits in the centre of the park and has I think over a hundered animals carved into its trunk. There is a close up at the top of this post.
We also rode the Kilimajaro Safari, the pictures below are from this ride. You sit in safari jeeps and drive through a safari range, learning about poaching and the difficulties that rangers have in keeping the animals safe.
We met the guy above and a few of his friends in Africa also.

It was a really beautiful park, with lots of atmosphere, a lot of education and some fun rides. And a few charcters too, to keep Katy happy.
We were hot and sticky so enjoyed the pool that evening before dinner.
