Disney Day 6

 We spent day 6 at Animal Kingdom.  We got there right as it opened.  Angela ran ahead to get our fast passes for Expedition Everest as we made our way over to the safari.  First thing is the time to ride safari.  You don't have to wait to get on and the animals are so active.  By the time we were done the wait was already up to an hour.
The lion roared as we went by.  It was really neat to see.  We got to see all the animals and some got real close.  The giraffes walked right next to us and we even had to stop for a while to let some animals pass.
 Audrey still wasn't back to herself but was feeling well enough to try and get out.  The bumpy safari ride probably wasn't a good thing for her to ride right away.
 We got a smile out of her for our family picture with the tree of life behind us.
 
After the safari Grandma Debbie took the kids to the boneyard while Angela, Brett, Chuck and I rode Expedition Everest.  Audrey wanted to go back to the hotel to rest so Chuck took her back and they napped by the pool.
 The rest of us went on the watch the Lion King show and ride Dinosaur
 Even on vacation Carter likes to learn.  He had us all over the park to earn all his stamps on his passport.  Each station taught him something different and had an activity for the kids to do.
Ready for the It's Tough to be a Bug! show
 Here's 6 year old Carter's hands in the imprint of a 6 year old male gorilla's hands
 Searching for all the hidden items to earn another stamp.  I think Grandma Debbie enjoyed the activities just as much as Carter.  He ended up earning all his stamps and just in time.  We had to hurry back to the resort to get ready for dinner.
 We walked over to Epcot for our princess dinner at Akershus  Royal Banquet Hall.  They take your picture as you enter the restaurant and it happened to be Audrey's favorite Belle!  She couldn't have smiled any bigger :)
Cinderella was the first to stop at our table.  Audrey slipped and fell and they are so in character that she asked if she lost a glass slipper.  They even made sure to talk to Carter telling him he's a handsome prince.  I can't remember which princess it was but after one of them talked to Carter Audrey said, "Oooo she likes you!"  It was hilarious!
 Princess Aurora
 Audrey was excited that Ariel was there
 Carter finally decided to get into a picture.
 She was so sweet with Evelyn
She sat on the floor so she could hold Evelyn.  Love this picture of my little Snow White.  All the princesses were so sweet and great with the kids.
They even had all the kids participate in a parade around the restaurant with the princesses.  This was so such a fun dinner to do at this age with Audrey.  Carter had fun too but he won't admit it.
