On Monday Steve had to go back to work and Jack woke up with a horrible, horrible cough and was feverish. He actually asked to go to the doctors. I was not initially sure we would go anywhere, but after some motrin, being upright for a little while and eating something, he seemed better and said he wanted to go out. Disney's Animal Kingdom is part zoo, part theme park so I figured we could treat it like a zoo and the kids could stay in the stroller keeping him rested and others from getting too many germs. I had never been there before and 2 kids along at a theme park can be a challenge, but off we went.
We actually didn't go on any rides, but walked aorund looking at some of the roller coasters, the animals and played in giant "dinasour dig" (aka a big sandbox).
The "tree of life" - the centerpiece of the park. The entire thing is carved with animals - pretty beautiful up close.
We ate lunch there after a couple of hours and headed back to the hotel for Nate's nap. Jack and I rested as well. Later in the afternoon we played in the kiddie pool and at the hotel's playground.
When Steve got home from work we headed to Downtown Disney for dinner. We ate at Bongos which was OK but both boys were very ill-behaved (probably because one was ill:) I was not particular impressed by downtown disney, but I am glad I saw it I suppose.
