Animal Kingdom and Epcot

We were so excited to go to Disney again. Cohen went when he was 6 1/2 months old so going a year later would be a lot different. We were very thankful for our friends who still work there and were able to get us in for free. We were only going to go to the Disney Parks two days, so we figured we would just go to Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom, but we ended up going to all 4 parks in those two days. Our first day started out at Animal Kingdom with a character breakfast buffet at the Tusker House.

Us with Donald Duck


At this breakfast the characters walk around from table to table and when they come to your table you can get a picture with them. Cohen waiting patiently to meet Goofy!


Cohen, Dan, Goofy and Me

Cohen, Dan and Daisy. 


Right after Cohen gave Daisy a kiss. What a sweetie!

Haha!

Mouse! One good thing about this is that he can see the character coming so we build up the excitement for him! He was especially excited to see Mickey. (And the other good thing was the food!)



:)


Love my buddy so much!

Mommy and Cohen on the safari

He seemed to enjoy the safari, but I'm not sure how well he saw all the animals.

Giraffe

After the safari we went to the "Finding Nemo" show. Cohen enjoyed it until he fell asleep!


Dan and his first (for this trip) Mickey's Premium

Dan and Cohen at the "Lion King" show. It was so nice to go into the air conditioned shows!



See the big mark on his forehead? Little buddy fell and hit his head on a rock! He was ok though!

Then it was off to Epcot for a few rides and to see a few characters!



About to the ride the clamobiles at the Seas with Nemo. See the seagulls behind Cohen and Dan...if you've seen Nemo you'll know that they just sit there and say, "mine, mine, mine" Of course, Dan taught it to Cohen. :)

Here's a sideways video of it. The best one we could get. And then Cohen telling us at the end that he'll "be right back!"

Meeting Pooh and Tigger!


Checkin' out the ducks!




On the tram back to the car! We had a really fun day and got to do everything we wanted and even some things that we didn't think we would get a chance to do. Cohen wasn't ever really scared to meet the characters or go on a ride, but never really showed excitement either! He was excited in line, but then got a little shy when it was our turn to meet the character. Overall, he did an awesome job and was quite the trooper!


Love, 
Katie
