Guest Post: First Disney Trip (Post 2 of 4)

Day Two- Animal Kingdom/Epcot

We woke up early for first thing Animal Kingdom.  Thank goodness my father in law purchased some cool Disney windbreakers for the boys because the weather was *gasp* 55 degrees??  Sorry Floridians, I guess we brought the Jersey weather to you.  So it was a chilly start there.  We went right to the Kilimanjaro safari-- it was great but we didn't have that good of a time since it was cold and most of the animals were "sleeping"/probably in shock over how cold it was.  (Again, Six Flags has the wild safari too and we frequent there often...so my 4 year old kept saying that we can do that when we get home.)

Off to Dinoland-  what a TREAT.  They love dino and they love the boardwalk.  SO that was a fun place.  All the games of chances made us feel like we were back on the Jersey Shore boardwalk (minus the annoying Snookies :-) )  We were there for a while and decided to use our snack credit at some place with Ribs.

**Parent's worst Nightmare** My parents and DH went to buy the food, I stayed with the two boys for a seat.  That is when 4YO decided to "run and find daddy" while 2 YO played with the ketchp.  I was so stressed out so I bolted after 4 YO and the GREAT STAFF at Disney immediately jumped in and inadvertently babysat 2YO (who really didn't pay attention to the fact that I was gone running--he loved pumping the ketchup into cups).

DISNEY STAFF ROCKED (actually they rocked the entire trip but this was a super up for that.) So we were all there safe and sound---I, after suffereing a minor heart attack--was able to actually eat food.  My DH stated that his ribs were the best ever so YAY Animal Kingodom - FLAME TREE BBQ- !!!
EPCOT was next...we hopped on the bus home to drop out stuff off and waited again for ANOTHER bus to take us to Epcot.  **note to all** if you don't like busses stopping all the time around the hotel...Caribbean Beach is NOT for you.  For a family that was just tired and traumatized from the way in more waiting and bus stops just made us unhappy.

EPCOT-- Hmm, C R O W D E D.  Food and Wine festival there.  Looked cool, but my oh my, just too many people.  With a trauma of my bolting kids in the crowd already I just couldn't do it again.  But we had dining reservations there so we stayed and did some attractions.  It was fun, but really not a place for a 4YO and 2YO.

Dining- Rose and Crown.  HOLY MOLY--MORE WAITING.  I swear we must have waited there to get served for THREE HOURS.  Three hours of my life and disney wasted to eat average food.  Waitress was really nice and gave the boys some light-up buzzes so that was good.  But three hours COME ON.  It was horrible.  HORRIBLE.  Again, Crankiness level was UP again on all of us.  Boys, parents, DH, and yes. even me-- Positive Polly.

We desperately wanted to see more and do more.  So FINALLY we were done.  Everyone dispurses and did they own thing.  I was determined to see more things at Epcot since half of our day was spent siting at a restaurant.  So we did the character spot (more waiting but worth it in the end) and Nemo / Crush thing.  I LOVED it.  "DUDE!"  My 4YO was cracking up at the silly Crush jokes...so again it made the frustration of a 3 hour dining meal melt.

Day two summary-- AK good, Flame Tree BBQ- AWESOME (and staff at AK even more AWESOME for staying with my kid) Epcot (eh)  ROSE and CROWN EPIC EPIC fail.  Crush the turtle-- DUDE it was  totally tubular.  :)

(to be continued tomorrow)
