Happy Sunday! We had a nice Saturday, hanging out with 2 of our good friends. So, today, we are relaxing. So, hopefully I can get a post or two in today!
Day Four: A Yeti and some Fish
After we finished our snacks, we headed to use our next Fast Pass! Everest!
So, first I should explain. Gwen isn't the biggest fan of this ride. She DOES NOT like the Yeti. It has nothing to do with the ride itself. But we had kind of talked it up a bit, about having Gwen try it again.
So, she wasn't SUPER happy about it but agreed to try it again.
So, we headed that way.
Shrine
I snapped a photo on the way over.
Gupta's Gear
I do think the magic of Animal Kingdom is in the details all around the park! I love it.
We got in line and didn't have much of a wait, thankfully.
Everest
Gwen asked to ride with me and Morgan actually gladly agreed if it meant we all got to ride together. Gwen rode the whole ride with her eyes closed. We are in the back row, you can barely see Gwen

Morgan and Andy rode together.
So, how did Gwen like it? She said she would ride it again. When we got off, I said that I didn't think I saw the Yeti. Whcih I did. I must have been so focused on Gwen that I didn't see it. So, Gwen said she would ride it again. Which was good, casue we wanted to try and come back tonight to ride at night.
At this point, we used up all of our fastpasses. And I wanted to try and get a second Flight of Passage fast pass. So, I didn't want to book a fast pass immeditatly. So, we needed to find something to do in the meantime.
Since we were on that side of the park, I suggested we grab a snack and go watch the Finding Nemo Show. There was some indifference to this plan but I figured it would be good to sit down, rest our feet and be in some air conditioning.
So, we headed over to my other favorite place in Animal Kingdom, Thirsty River Bar & Trek Snacks!
It was 12:30, so I figured it was ok to get my favorite drink!
Himalayan Ghost
Snow Leopard Vodka, Guava and odwalla® Lemonade

I love it, it's refreshing!
We also got the

Monin Wild Strawberry, Lychee and odwalla® Lemonade
for the girls to share.

And proceeded to drink the whole thing while we waited to pay!
And then in the other line, we grabbed a soft pretzel to share.

With our treats, we headed towards Finding Nemo and got in line.
And I am going to continue in the next post, as I hit post by mistake... oops.
