Animal Kingdom

Disclaimer: While we had a wonderful trip, I wouldn't recommend taking a 3 year old to FL just to go to Disney World. We really limited ourselves in doing only things that Benjamin would enjoy & appreciate, so there was a lot we skipped (and that was fine). Since Russell's conference was located on the Disney property, it was just so convenient for us to go for 2 days & check things out. We did have fun!

Animal Kingdom: I didn't get many pictures since Benjamin & I went alone. He loved seeing all the animals (it's been a while since we've been to a zoo), meeting Donald Duck, & watching an amazing bird show. We also saw part of an incredible Nemo musical/puppet show - until it got to "scary" for Benjamin. I had prepared myself for this and had chosen seats at the end of a row. Funny thing is - he loves talking about Nemo now. We hardly know anything about him, I guess I should find the story at the library! But he is an awfully cute fish.

This bird had at least a 6 foot wingspan and flew above us several times.
