Daniel is still feeling horrible and even tried to get a referral to see a doctor today. We decided to sleep in a little and do a shorter day at Animal Kingdom today. We read in the special times schedule that the Fast Pass wasn’t working for the It’s Tough to be a Bug! Show and the Primeval Whirl. We decided to see what the wait time was for It’s Tough to be a Bug and were pleasantly surprised to find only a 5 min wait. We parked the stroller and make our way into the Tree of Life for the show.
When the show was over we took a couple pictures with the Tree of Life and then Daddy headed to Kilimanjaro Safaris to get us Fast Pass tickets. The boys and I headed to Camp Minnie-Mickey to catch the Festival of the Lion King Show. Daniel was even able to make it to the show and find a seat with us just in time!!
The show was really great. The monkey were my favorite. They did all kinds of crazy choreographed gymnastics with the rings and elevated bars and a trampoline. I think Alan and Eddie like the Fire Eating Baton Twirler best!!
The show was over just in time for us to head to Africa to use our Fast Pass on Kilimanjaro Safari. You take a 2 week Safari ride through an African style savannah reserve and see all kinds of animals. It gets cut short unexpectedly due to poachers of course!!
When the Safari ended we were ready for lunch!! It was off to DinoLand U.S.A. to get something to eat!!
When Daniel finished eating he headed to the Dinosaur ride to get Fast Pass tickets and let the boys and I enjoy the air conditioning of Restaurantosaurus Dinning Hall. When he came back we all headed out for a “pitt stop” and then decided to try the Parent Swap tickets on the Dinosaur ride. The old lady working the Parent Swap Tickets was on to us and totally rude!! She wouldn’t let us use the fast part of the ticket until she was sure we had taken a kid and waited 45min in the regular line. This is the one and only time in our 3 trips to Disney we have been unsuccessful in getting the ticket and just using the part where you skip to the front of the line when one of the kids isn’t tall enough to go on the ride.
We headed to Dino Rama to entertain the kids until our actual Fast Pass tickets were good. Mommy, Eddie, and Joey got in line to ride the TriceraTop Spin ride and Alan (Eddie was an inch too short) and Daddy went on to the 30 min wait for Primeval Whirl. 
Obviously Eddie, Joey, and I finished the ride with time to kill. We went back to the stroller and reapplied sun block. Then we found a shady spot near the exit for the Primeval Whirl ride to watch for Daddy and Alan.
Daddy, Alan, and Joey went to wait for the TriceraTop Spin and Eddie and Mommy headed to use the Fast Pass on the Dinosaur Ride.
We traveled back in time over 65 million years to save the last dinosaur on earth and barely escaped the meteor that created the Ice Age and killed all the Dinosaurs!! It was exciting and the Fast Pass was so fast the Daddy, Alan, and Joey were at the front of the line and I boosted Eddie over the fence so they could all ride TriceraTop Spin together!!
I handed Daddy the other 2 Fast Pass tickets and took Alan and Joey to get Fast Past tickets for the new rollercoaster, Expedition Everest. The Fast Pass time wasn’t until 6:20pm!!! Joey was asleep in the stroller and Alan asked for ice cream so we got a treat and headed back to DinoLand to find Daddy and Eddie. We got out the map and discussed our options with 4 hours until the Fast Pass was good. The wait time to the ride was 45min. We decided to check out the wait time and Fast Pass situation on Kali River Rapids. Bad news there the wait time was an hour!! We laid it all out for Alan and Eddie and they decided they really just wanted to go to the hotel and swim.
Alan wanted me to take this picture by the Rain Forest Café on the way out.
When we got back to the hotel Daddy and Joey showered and headed into town to find more Thera Flu, sunscreen, milk, bread and cheaper fast food for dinner. Mommy, Alan and Eddie headed to the Baseball Diamond pool right outside our room!!
We got back to the room just in time for the call from Daddy to decide between McDonald’s and Wendy’s. That was enough time to shower and get our PJs on before they got back with dinner. I’m writing this after dinner while Daddy snoozes and the boys are watching Disney XD and entertaining themselves with their travel backpacks. Bedtime is right around the corner to prepare for a busy day 3 of vacation!!
