One of our family favourites too. Back on our first trip in 2009, we took the boys on it thinking it would be a whimsical look through the movies. That is, until the scene from Alien! We got off the ride and Jamie (then age 6) looked up at me and said "Mummy, you must really hate me, make me do that bad ride!" Poor little guy!I really, really, really liked the great movie ride and will always be sad to see it gone.
You perfectly summed up my feeling about AK. ❤Everyone has a place that brings rest- Rest to the heart; Joy to the Soul; and Peace to the mind. For a while now, Animal Kingdom has been that haven of beauty and tranquility for me.
I love that......this picture is giving me all the feels. Have I mentioned 1,000 times how much I am longing to get back???However, it was not fast enough that I could not pause to appreciate the incredible lighting on the Tree of Life in that lovely Golden Hour. Not an excellent photo by any stretch, but it does kinda show the morning light coming into the park. To me it was a brilliant message and symbol of a brand new day with endless and bright possibilites!!!
These are spectacular photos, I love the detail and colours.I could take all the noisy photos I wanted sliding from side to side of the boat ad lib trying my best to capture what I could in a dark, moving place. It’s not easy and sadly, this time around I’d put my long lens on for the Safari rather than my fast lens for dark rides. Sure, I could have brought both, but sorry, hands in pockets were more important than hands carrying camera bags. So, you get what you get with a long lens. Meh.
You can really see the personality of each bird shining through in these photos. I love them!At some point, whether it was this day or another on the trip, we found ourselves in the Aviary of the Maharaja Trail. I invariably spend inordinate amounts of time gazing at the birds there, but I never seem to get crisp shots of these feathered friends. Still, they provide a lot of entertainment for me and, as usual, I enjoyed what time I did get very much.
That's fantastic Alicia! We are finally back in class after being online from January 4th through February 16th and I am SO grateful to be in the classroom. I am hoping to be vaccinated early this spring.However, I can't complain too much because I do have it better than the nationals. My kids attend an American school which has only switched to virtual for two weeks. So the kids are still going to school everyday, playing and seeing their friends, and I get to chat with fellow parents at drop-off/pick-up. The teachers were all able to be vaccinated if they wanted, so I am extremely confident the kids won't have to go virtual again.
