Year 5, Day 104, “Living the Dream”. Tuesday, 8/12/2025 Day 27 of 29 day Florida, Caribbean, SeaWorld and Disney World trip. – Day 3 of 3 night Disney World Wilderness Lodge. Day 3 of 3 night Disney World. Animal Kingdom day.
Early morning coffee from the Roaring Fork at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge.
We met up in the foyer of the Wilderness Lodge. Then we headed to a character breakfast buffet at the Tusker House Restaurant in Animal Kingdom. Food and service was great.
It is a hot hot day. After breakfast we headed to the Kilimanjaro Safari. It was a fun safari ride. Loved viewing the animals.
Park was pretty crowded and hot hot hot. We also rode the Dinosaur ride, Na’Vi River Journey, and Avatar Flight of Passage. The Dinosaur ride at Disney’s Animal Kingdom will close in 2026. This is to make way for an Indiana Jones-themed attraction. DinoLand U.S.A. section of Animal Kingdom is being rethemed to Tropical Americas land. Avatar Flight of Passage was pretty intense for me. It’s a simulator which creates the illusion of flight. I must admit I closed my eyes alot.
We watched Finding Nemo show before we left the park.
In the evening Jenna and Jamie headed to Epcot. We took the kids to McDonald’s outside of Disney World We passed the park facilities buildings on the way. The kids loved it. They couldn’t believe there was a huge holiday storage building. And were amazed at the Monorail maintenance area. They took lots of pictures to show Mom and Dad.
Later they assisted me with making a video of our room 1008 at Wilderness Lodge.
We explored the outside of the Wilderness Lodge resort. We ended the night at the open air game room behind Geyser Point Bar and Grill. There we played table tennis, table soccer, pool and Corn Hole.
Jenna and Jamie met us by the lake behind the room. Where for the 6th time I had Happy Birthday sang to me. Wow – I feel so embraced with love. We all hugged goodbye. Heading home early in the morning.
Things to ponder today! Have to leave you thinking.
Here’s a link to today’s Amazon recommendation: https://amzn.to/4n2FyMO Glass Cutting Boards for Kitchen, 2Pcs Chopping Board: I am throwing out all my plastic cutting boards and going with glass. The thought of eating more plastic has made me change. Glass boards are non-porous and highly durable. They offer a smooth, hard surface that resists stains and odors. I have heard they are hard on your knives though.
