Day 4 - Animal Kingdom

Walking along the Maharajah Trail where we encountered some neat animals

Beautiful African Elephant
lunch at the Rainforest Cafe - Jasmine loved the fish! She also ate popcorn shrimp for lunch! What a palate!
Couldn't resist this angelic face at naptime!
Jasmine with Tio Rory and Tia Faith
Total glee
loving a chance to stretch!
Taking a break before getting back in line
Jasmine was selected to have a "magical moment" - she got to press the button to blow the train whistle and even got a certificate signed by the conducter of the train! Jasmine loves trains and she was constantly heard saying "chug a chug a choo choo" during the whole ride!

Jasmine gets brave on a tiger
Jasmine at the petting zoo - she wasn't afraid of the animals at all, she hugged them and kissed them and tried to feed them dirt!

Us in front of the Tree of Life

On Monday we went to the Animal Kingdom where we met up with Sabrina's brother Rory and his girlfriend Faith. It was so nice to see them as he lives in Tampa and we don't get to see him as often as we would like. Jasmine as always took a little while to warm up to him (we think it is the facial hair) but she got over it and had a great time with her Tio. We had some trouble navigating this park and there was so much to see. We wish we could have had more time there (they close the park at 7 PM) because there were so many amazing and fun things to do both for the little ones and adults too! Jasmine absolutely loved the last show we saw for the day which was a Circle of Life Lion King show - she practically jumped out of her seat with dancing, jumping, clapping, pointing and all out glee! It was so touching to see her love of music and animals shine through her countenance like that!

Sabrina, there is just something about the way that you do your hair that makes you look even more beautiful than you looked before. Sassy momma!
