Wow. Holy Mega Update.
Right before work was probably not the best time to read it. I can't possible remember everything I want to say.
Sorry about that. I debated and honestly normally I'd probably have split it in 2 but I knew if I did there was no way I'd wrap this up before Aulani so...mega update.
Here goes:
Backstage Safari - sounds like they had an amazing time and it was obviously made even better because it was a private tour. They got some great pictures.
Love the FOTLK. Did you see Pat's tumble monkey?
I think so but do get confused as to which one is "hers"
Nemo - you got great pictures.
Single Rider EE - yeah!
Can't believe the boys rode 7 times.
I was happy with the Nemo pics esp since I didn't edit anything. I'm a bit skeptical that it was really 7 times but they are both adamant and that is the number i remember from that day.
Sounds like Y&Y was a great choice. There is something really cool about walking out of the park after it closes - especially at night. Nice!
Lovely last evening!
Woo hoo for Aulani being 1 week away!
Will there be a TR?
I'm very glad we chose Y&Y for that reason alone. The fact that it was SO yummy was icing on the cake! I would eat there again in a heartbeat.
One week from today! Of course I am going to have to work most of that day..until it's time to go the airport. Never fails. Yes, I am planning a TR. Need to get my pack list together, clear my memory card, get some travel toiletries...aaack! Good thing this weekend seems mostly clear (finally).
Yeah for private backstage tour!
We really enjoyed our meal at Y&Y as well and will def be back there.
I love FOTLK and am so sad I won't see it again.
Has the closing of it been officially announced? I know the theater is being closed for Avatar work but thought they were being relocated...or that was the story so far.
I really loved Y&Y
A private backstage safari? AWESOME!!!!!!!!
I really really enjoy all the photos you post! We have not been to FOTL for about 2 years, but we did see Nemo last summer. Both shows are really great.
You can't beat a private tour! thanks on the photos, seeing both shows was a priority for me, really the only thing I "made" everyone do, the rest was up to them and it was a win win all around. So glad we were able to fit them all in.
And dinner at Y&Y! So yummy! I just love the wok fried green beans - they are SO good! And the cream cheese wontons for dessert! What else can you ask for.
Aulani only a week away? Lucky girl! I second the thought for a TR!
Seriously. I could happily eat that entire meal again tonight!
I do plan to do a TR for Aulani which is why I'm trying to wrap this up before we go
Now that sounds like one of
our Animal Kingdom days!
Seems like most people go in and do 3-4 things and are out. Getting in many rides, shows, and a meal -
! And then some night vision time, too, back at your lovely resort... I'd say that was a fabulous day!
So true. A lot of folks think of it as a half day park. We typically seem to go there 2-3 times in a trip, half days each but somehow don't usually get that much done. It really was nice to just do everything, not leave and really enjoy and savor it all. Definitely a full day park in our book!
Yak and Yeti is the only AK restaurant we have not eaten at. I wasn't sure if the girls would be in for it, but Bella actually likes Asian food quite a bit, and I think there are things Brooklynn would try.
I had put it out as an option for prior trips and there was never interest which surprised me as they all love Asian. They have some lovely noodle dishes that I think would please a lot of kids if they are even semi adventurous. I'd go back on the next trip if the kids wanted, I could see my nephews loving it too.
