Ok girls, here is the next installment of my TR
FINALLY!
November 5th
the day after the engagement.
I woke up kind of late for me
7:30
and jumped into the shower. Today was AK day! I was so psyched about everything, pretty much life in general made me happy that day. I was washing my hair in the shower and got some shampoo in my eyes. I wiped the soap out and looked down at my left had and caught my first glimpse of my ring since the day before. I just sobbed.
(Im a sap and a half) I got out and got dressed. Adam woke up and got ready and asked where we were going today. I told him we were off to the AK. The year before we had breakfast at the AK at pizzafari. The place was practically empty and I LOVED the breakfast pizza. So we decided to go to there again for breakfast. We left at 8 for the bus. We got there and realized I was wrong about what time it opened and that we were there about 45 mins early. Oops. So we poked around the rain forest café gift shop and waited for the gates to open. While in the gift shop I noticed that there was a turnstile at the back where there was an attendant standing. Once we heard the rope drop show starting I mentioned to adam that I thought we might be able to beat the line and get in through the gift shop. So we tried it and voila! We were in like VIPs!
We beat everyone else coming in through the main gate! We stood on the bridge leading into the oasis and watched the rest of rope drop. (which was a pleasant surprise) We went right into pizzafari and got breakfast. Again no one was in there and we could relax and plan our plan of attack without the craziness outside.
After breakfast we decided to head over to EE and get a FP. We hit the FP kiosk and then notice that our FP time is for twenty mins from now. So we walked over to the ride enterence and see only a 10 min wait!!!
Holy Moley! We got in the stand-by line and got right on, got off and got right back on with our FP. It was awesome! We love that ride!
After two rides on EE we headed over to the KS. The line for that was 30 mins so we got a FP and decided to walk through the jungle trekk. We had never done this before and were pleasantly surprised at how cool it was. Check out these tiger pictures!!!
We spent so much time in there we almost missed out on our FP for KS. We got on our truck for the safari. It was awesome I was so excited that I forgot to get out the camera and take pictures! Anyway the coolest thing about the safari was when the guide told us that she couldnt find the rhino. Apparently he wasnt where he was supposed to be. So we continued on and after taking a corner the guide says oh
ok.. um please dont make any loud noises, weve found the rhino. I looked to my right and saw the very large butt of the rhino so close I couldve touched it!
We drove past without any problems and the guide said yea um hes been chasing the trucks the past few days so sorry about that folks he just makes me nervouse! It was pretty cool! After the safari we headed over to dinosaur! Love that ride too, its so crazy and you always feel like somone beat you up when you leave the ride, but its totally worth it! We got a FP and then decided we wanted a snack. We headed over to Dinoland USA and saw a little place to get snacks and decided to get a cookie ice cream sandwich. OMG we couldve shared one! It was huge! And we got one each! DELICIOUSE! Insanely bad for you but sooooo good! We headed back to dinosaur! And screamed out heads off at the scarey carnitor! So much fun! After Dinosaur we went over to its tough to be a bug. The show was going well until the spiders came down from the ceiling and scared the poor little girl next to us. She started crying and had to leave
I felt so bad. Then the bees came out and I didnt get stung but adam sure did
he jumped a mile! So I asked him if he wanted to me to take him out too
he laughed and said no I think Ill be alright! we didnt stop laughing. After its tough to be a bug we decided it was time to go
but not before one more ride on EE. Yup three times! After EE we headed back to the bus. It was about 2pm so we decided to head over to the boardwalk.
Im going to stop here for now. Next up is the crazy waiter at Big River, Boardwalk/beach club/yachet club exploration and HS.
