"Look for the bare necessities The simple bare necessities Forget about your worries and your strife I mean the bare necessities Old Mother Nature's recipes That brings the bare necessities of life " --Jungle Book--

And finally the last day! Mark had the computer the last couple days so I'm blaming him for my delay :) Anywho....the last day we spent at the Animal Kingdom, starting it off with a fun character breakfast with Donald, Daisy, Micky, and Goofy! Evelyn enjoyed it for the most part...until Goofy snuck up on her and scared her! (he didn't mean too...she just wasn't paying attention). She didn't quite like that and wouldn't let him near her after.

Meeting Donald

Breakfast time!

The characters did a parade here too and Evelyn got lost, again....so Mickey found her and walked her with him...lucky girl :)

My special treat from the gang for my bday :)

Daisy! She did like Daisy. 

hello from Goofy!

She was SO scared!

Yay for Mickey!

After breakfast we headed over to the Safari! We saw a lot of animals and Evelyn really loved it. We spent most of the day really, there were lots of exhibits/places to walk around with animals, which was nice because it was really really warm that day and walking around the covered paths...way cooler! 

Evelyn's excitement on the Safari

Super cute baby elephant!

Watching fish!

on the lookout for animals!

This one is just funny

I just think this one is a little silly/graceful :) looks like he's smelling a flower :)

oober cute baby Gorilla!!!

One show we watched was the Lion King! that was a pretty cool show, lots of fun costumes, lots of color, and lots of cool tricks/acrobatics. :) 

As you can see, Evelyn LOVED the Lion King show!

I thought the monkeys were the coolest

The fire guy was good too

Finale! :)
 We did get to meet some Winnie the Pooh Characters...although Evelyn wasn't too fond of them, she would only let Pooh Bear give her a hug. :)
Pooh Bear Hug!

Evelyn was a little concerned about Eeyore...

and wouldn't go near Tigger except to have him sign her book



We did watch the Finding Nemo Musical show, which was really good! Nice break from the warmth too :)


the show was super cute!

Here's Brucey! 


Riding the dinosaur ride!

walking around the big tree 

tiger!

Other than that we pretty much just walked around, ate some good lunch, watched a parade... oh! And met Pocahontas! I totally wasn't expecting her to be there but she was...waited in line for like 5 min at the most and we were out of there :) Shortest princess line ever! 

Waiting for the parade! She's so cute 

King Louie giving high fives...Evelyn of course didn't like him :)

Timon gave her a kiss on the hand though :) 

Pocahontas! Evelyn likes to talk about Pocahontas (even before meeting her) but has never seen the movie or anything...maybe she saw her in a princess book or something...
 After Pocahontas though we pretty much decided that was it....Evelyn fell asleep in her stroller, we were both tired, and really didn't have much else to do...so we left at like 4:30/5 (the park closed at 8 anyway), went back to the hotel and took naps! Evelyn and Mark slept for over two hours...it was crazy. I, of course, couldn't but that's alright :) Overall it was a FABULOUS trip and we had an amazing time and I'm so glad we did it!
All tuckered out!

So long Animal Kingdom!

I'm not sure when I'll post again...hopefully Monday but we'll see...if not then sorry for the big break coming! We're moving to NC next week (YAY!) and it'll be a bit before we get settled. Wish us luck! :)
