Looks like a great trip. So she likes the roller coasters? I'm not big on them, but I love Thunder Mountain.

Did she get to ride Soarin'?

Animal Kingdom:

Outside the Dinosaur ride. Very scary, but Anika loved it. Come to think of it, I don't think there's anything at Disney that she didn't enjoy - Haunted Mansion, Space Mountain, Dinosaur, Expedition Everest, Soarin', Mission: Space, Test Track.... She's been a motion junky since before birth. She and I will be riding a lot of coasters in the future....


Her favorite at Animal Kingdom - Expedition Everest. We rode it 4 times. Watch out for the Yeti!



The Tree of Life in the center of the park. Very cool. Anika wasn't in the mood for photos at that time. sigh...


Last year and this year, Disney is doing a promo called the Year of a Million Dreams. They randomly choose guests from the crowd for extra perks - some small, like a set of FastPasses for the whole day (we got those at the Magic Kingdom), up to whole Disney vacations. Well, in Animal Kingdom, we got chosen again - this time to ride one of the floats in the Mickey's Jammin' Jungle Parage!

This was taken in the back lot before the parade:


Here are my 2 girls on the float:


They took a few photos of us with a disposable camera that they gave us, which is being developed as I write this. When I get the photos, I'll scan them and put them up here.

It was a great ride - though after 30 minutes, the music gets a bit on your nerves - they gave us earplugs, since the speakers were right above our heads.

Anika took the camera for a few shots outside our hotel: Yes, she did take these herself!






Then I took my camera back for one:

Finally, the Princesses:

The Original, and Only as far as I'm concerned: Snow White!


Jasmine!


Ariel:


Cinderella:




And some of the secondary, Princess-related characters:

Prince Charming (Virginija was drooling).


And my favorites: Lady Tremaine and her daughters, Anastasia and Druzella. They were absolutely hilarious!


We have more (Goofy, Pluto, Chip & Dale, Belle, Alice & the Mad Hatter, etc.. but I got tired of cropping & uploading.

It was a nice color. It had 8 miles on it when I picked it up. Let's just say it had a harsh break-in.....

Yeah, that one was rushed. But I got a good pose from her - Action Shot!
