Disney Day 4- Animal Kingdom

Day 4

Today we went to Animal Kingdom. Animal Kingdom reminded me of a big zoo, with rides. Though, I really felt it catered more to the older child. Maddyn was tall enough to only ride one ride (which she rode and loved). The shows were all very long, so we knew she wouldn’t sit through the whole thing. She did love the petting zoo, but her allergies went haywire. So we only spent a few hours there, and headed back to the hotel.

Honestly, I probably wouldn’t do Animal Kingdom again with a Toddler if they go to the zoo enough. Maddyn gets to the zoo pretty often, so it probably wouldn’t be worth the money to do AK unless the child is old enough to do rides and shows or understand some of the teaching elements.

I expected to see wondering animals, and they did have some which were neat. Don’t get me wrong, the place is gorgeous, well-kept, and full of animals. It’s just that for the only parts Maddyn could do, it really compared to Brookfield.

When we got back from AK, we hit the pool and just hung out tonight. Lots of fun. We’re planning on a full day at Magic Kingdom tomorrow, so a low key evening was just what we all needed. Tomorrow night we also are going to the Luau at our hotel. Looking forward to it!


Now that we've hit all 4 parks, I think our plan is to just hit MK a few hours the next 3 days. It's really the park that there is so much for her to do, it's close to our hotel, and we feel it's the best use of our time. Hopefully the weather will continue to be beautiful!

Here are a few photos from today:
