Hi everyone! I finally have a small update put together. I decided to cut them a little shorter so I could update more often than I have been.
After we were all finished up at Hollywood Studios, it was time to head over to Animal Kingdom! I like to have a full day for each park but this trip was so short. We had to split two parks so we chose DHS and AK. I’m so thankful that Disney offers a bus between these two parks. How handy! (thank you to MeMom for the tip and photo of the bus board!) There were only a handful of people waiting for the AK bus and we did have a bit of a wait but not too, too long. Soon we were there!
There were lots of these cute little creatures all over the ground. Morghan wanted one as a pet! She’s a big animal lover and she hasn’t met one that doesn’t become a friend.
Hello Animal Kingdom! It’s been too long!
This park is so beautiful! It’s very photogenic. There is just something about the way Animal Kingdom is as the day winds down. So peaceful.
Look who we saw! DiVine!
People were milling about, very fascinated with her. I had not seen her in person so was excited to finally catch a glimpse. I’ve read about her before so thought to myself how lucky I was to actually see her with my own two eyes.
Seriously, do NOT forget your shoes! That would be bad.
Expedition Everest was first of course. We decided that Morghan would single ride first and we’d pull fastpasses for a bit later for both of us. I could only ride once but Morghan could ride over and over without getting sick. I love thrill rides but once is my limit.
Then we headed over to the Safari. The crowds were quite busy this time of day.
I will only post a few pictures since I am sure you have seen a million, billon of these.
If I were an elephant, I would definitely want to be a Disney elephant!
Lazy, sleeping kitties-
Time check for EE-
We had some time to kill so we thought a snack sounded good. Morghan wanted a Mickey ice cream bar and I wanted something I have read about on other reports and just had to try for myself. Guess what it was? I knew that they had these in Animal Kingdom but wasn't sure if they are in any other parks. Any ideas? A yummy jalapeno cheese stuffed pretzel! I was on a mission and we looked everywhere for a cart that sold them. Oh yes! Morghan thought I was a little embarassing hunting this down like a fanatic. I asked a few CMs and was so thankful one finally knew what I was talking about when I described this spicy pretzel. I had it in my notes to remember to try!
(only at Disney would I pay $1.49 for ONE banana!!!)
Yummy, right? It lived up to the hype!
We spotted this wonderful CM! Her and Morghan became friends quickly, chatting about various things. She's so pretty too and never stopped smiling! Just a genuinely nice person.
And Morghan also did something she had wanted to do for a long time. She got a henna tattoo! She was fabulous with Morghan.
The henna tattoo was beautiful, very well done and lasted quite a long time. It's a great souvenir for a teenager. Of course Morghan had to text a photo to a hundred of her closest friends. You know how teenager girls are!
Where would we go next?

My boys love those little lizards at WDW! They actually caught one once and wanted to take it home, but I made them let it go! I know, I'm so mean. 
Morghan's henna tattoo looks very cute! 
It seems like something I should know, but maybe not!
So I will be taking Morghan with me FOREVER as she's my fellow addict! 
Sorry it took me so long to get back here. I hope you and your oldest son have fun in AK! You two remind me a lot of Morghan and I for sure.
