Animal Kingdom & Epcot

Today was our last day at Disney.

We went to Animal Kingdom and Epcot. Thomas & Meyer were at school today so it was just us and Shelley at first. We went to Animal Kingdom, where Shelley and I rode Expedition Everest, while Jamie took Taylor to Dinoland where he won her a stuffed turtle playing basketball. We met back up with them just in time to ride a dinosaur ride similar to Dumbo and Aladdin Carpets. Then two at a time (because Taylor was too short) we rode Primeval Whirl, which was very rough jerky and carnival like. Then we caught another parade (of course!) and Shelley left to go pick up Thomas & Meyer. Taylor, Jamie and I went on a Safari to see some animals.

There really wasnt much left to do at Animal Kingdom so we took a bus over to Epcot, where we met up with Thomas, Meyer, and Shelley. We went immediately over to the Test Track and took turns riding this; poor Taylor was too short for almost all the rides at Epcot. It was sad, she kept saying “I’m big. I’m big enough. Please I’m big. I’m big enough.” My poor baby. Almost all of Epcot was closed early so we didnt get to do alot here. But we did go to Finding Nemo and rode it. Then we went to ride Soarin’, which Taylor was again 4 inches too short to ride so we had to take turns riding that. It was awesome, though, and I think Taylor would have been JUST fine on this ride. While we were waiting for Thomas, Shelley, and Jamie to ride Soarin’, I took Meyer and Taylor over to the Finding Nemo ride again and let them ride that. But then it closed and so did all the other things there (they had fish tanks and a little playarea like a ship wreck, but it was all roped off). I had to just sit in the lobby of the Soarin’ area (I wasnt allowed to go down by the exit, stupid) and wait. With two little ones. It was hard and they were both hungry and bored. Once they got done we went to a gift shop and bought all our souveniers.

We leave tomorrow for home. What a great trip!
