Park Information

Yesterday, after we picked up the race kits we went to Hollywood studios. I was able to herd my friends to going on the Tower of Terror and the Rock ‘n’ Roller Coaster. One has declared I am no longer her friend. More sedately we saw the Star Tours, the Muppets, and we closed it down with the “Lights! Motors! Action! Extreme Stunt Show”.
After that, we hopped over to Epcot and had dinner in the English area. We watched the light and firework show called IlluminNations, and then headed back to our hotels. We had to get up early, but I think we stayed up too late.
Today, after the run we had trouble organizing ourselves. We eventually got to the Animal Kingdom. The Kali River Rapids was awesome, but I spent the rest of the day wet. The “It’s Tough to Be a Bug!” was a good 3-D show. I think the Expedition Everest was my favorite rollercoaster, but the lineup was way too long.The Killmanjaro Safari was a good zoo ride. I saw rhinos and hippos and all sorts of other animals that are probably available at my local zoo, but being on vacation makes them more exotic. The Maharaja Jungle Trek was also a good educational experience, although I don’t know if I really wanted to see a live naked mole rat giving birth. Then the park kicked us out; We headed back to our respective hotels and ate. Now I should go to bed. Early day tomorrow, followed by the Magic Kingdom.
I would like to go back to the Animal Kingdom. It was nice and sedate and felt very adult. If we get there early we will be able to see the gorillas.
