A day at Disney

This was my first time staying at the Animal Kingdom resort.  We stayed at Kidani, which my roommate quickly renamed "Kan-da-ha"!!  Really?!?!?!?  Crazy woman!!!  Its a beautiful resort.  We had a savanah view room.  Outside our window we had giraffes, beef-a-lo's with big horns, zebras and ostrich!  The lobby was beautiful, as was our room.  The first night we were wild women and went to the bar for a drink!  No, you aren't mis-reading this!!  I had a very yummy Pina Colada, she had wine and we tasted some breads and dips. The next day we were up early and off to the Magic Kingdom.  We did Pirates of the Carribean, the Haunted Mansion, (which has been revamped since my last visit in Feb.), and of course did some shopping.  Then we took the Monorail over to Epcot.  There we did Soar'in, Living With the Land, Spaceship Earth and walked around the countries.  After that we returned to our room, got our suits on and went for a swim.  We even went down the slide!  Very fun!  We also enjoyed some more liquid refreshment as we sat in the sun for a while!!  This time it was a Pina Coolava!!  Yummy delicious!!!!  My next entry will be all about the main reason for the trip, but while we were at downtown Disney we got our faces painted and enjoyed one more Pina Colada while listening to some nice, live music! 

We spent two nights at my niece's house.  So much fun.  Playing games with my great- nephew, swimming, shopping, lots of laughs, and a major prank was played on us by my niece's husband.  He needs to be watching his back now.....cause we WILL be getting revenge!!!  Just about gave us both a heart attack!!
I thought he was just being polite saying Mae and Aunt Cindy could go out first....but NOOOOOO.......
as we stepped out the door I spotted a cute little lizard.  So we were very busy looking to see if we could see any more.....(this was killing Neil, cause he wanted us to see something else!!!)  When we finally turned around we were face to face with a "once live, now stuffed, but still looked alive, cheetah!!!!  There was some swearing, and I did a little damage to Nine's wrist with my nails....and then there was the LAUGHER coming from around the corner!!!!  Oh yes.....he's a funny one!!!!   I can't believe I didn't get a picture of the cheetah!  Hmmmm......rats!!!  Anyway....here are some more photos for our fun times!!
