Day Four - Animals and Movie Stars

On the fourth day of vacation, we finally used the 'park hopper' option of our tickets and visited two parks in one day - Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios. It was our first time ever to Animal Kingdom. Visually, its a great park with tons to look at, and its very pretty. But, its low on rides and our boys wanted some action. So after a few hours at AK, we mosied on over the Hollywood Studios to finish out the day. It was another beautiful weather day, and we discovered our very favorite roller coaster ever, the Rock-N-Roller Coaster, as our last ride of the day.

As were were strolling thru Africa, we got to participate in an impromptu jam session! I wish we had a video of this because we were all shaking our booties!

Then the boys got to meet Baloo and King Louis from the Jungle Book.

I have no idea who this dude is but we got his autograph anyway.

Our last ride at AK ended up being the Dinosuar ride, which I was expecting to be an innocent little tour thru prehistoric times. It ended up being so scary I about peed my pants (but the boys loved it).

After that little adventure, we moved onto Hollywood Studios. On the tram ride in from the parking lot, the boys were eating Jolly Rancher candy. Dylan suddenly announced his tooth fell out. He held out his half eaten candy with his first molar stuck right in in, mouth covered in blood. Very exciting! We got to go to Hollywood Studios first aid, where he got cleaned up and the staff made it all better by showering the boys witih Mickey Mouse stickers. You can see all the water on his shirt in this photo below. Dylan was excited the Tooth Fairy would be visiting him during vacation, and she bought him $5 and a Mickey Mouse stuffed animal that night.
