Hello, everyone! Let's continue with the Trip Report, shall we?
After we left Hollywood Studios, we had a few hours before we had to be at dinner. We had friends who were going to be at Disney the same time as us, so we were all meeting that night for dinner at the California Grill.
That afternoon, it was warm enough to sit by the pool for a bit and read, which was nice and relaxing. We then got our nice clothes on, and headed over to the California Grill for dinner!
Sadly, I don't have any pictures of my meal for you.....because....it was so amazing I ate every bite before I thought to take a picture. California Grill is a signature dining experience, located at The Contemporary Resort, and in my opinion, is SO WORTH IT. The meal was incredible, the service was fantastic, and the view? Un-paralleled! Our reservation was at 7:00 and so in the middle of our meal, we were able to go outside on their viewing platform and watch the Wishes fireworks show, literally steps from the Magic Kingdom! It was pretty incredible. LeiLani, thank you for letting us crash your family meal and enjoy that with you all! We'll for SURE have to do it again!
The next morning the plan was to head to Animal Kingdom.
Here is their Christmas tree - it's HUGE.
Recognize this picture? Yep, it's the "what tree is this" picture I posted earlier in the week. The details are just incredible!
We only had to stand in line for about 10 minutes, then went into the park! We had a breakfast reservation at 9:10AM, so we had about an hour to wander around.
We decided to stop at the little trails and break-aways in Animal Kingdom, to check out some of the inhabitants.
There are a few waterfalls at Animal Kingdom, here's one: just gorgeous.
That way to the fun!
Look, mingos!!
Donald, is that you?!
We then came upon the Tree of Life; such a beautiful sight!
The obligatory PhotoPass "In front of the Tree of Life" picture. :) (By the way, do you ever wonder about the people that are in the background of your vacation pictures? How about OTHER people's pictures that you're in?!)
We headed in a few shops to look around at the offerings and see if we wanted to buy anything.
We didn't in that particular store, but we did grab a few things on our way out!
There is a Discovery Island Trail you can walk down, so we headed on that path to see what we could find.
What was saw as the largest porcupine that I've ever seen. This guy was huge!!
See? Another waterfall!
We still had some time to kill before we had to be at breakfast, so we decided to hit an attraction. Any guesses as to which one we did?
See you next time!
