Honeymoon Day 2: Animal Kingdom Monday Night

After spending a super hot and humid morning at Magic Kingdom we headed back to our hotel and enjoyed an afternoon in the pool, and a quick lunch a the Mara (we ate here a lot). We also enjoyed a quick nap before getting ready to head to Animal Kingdom. Before heading out to catch the bus, we decided to meander around the lodge a bit:
We actually did a sit down photo session with a Disney Photo Pass Photographer, I've ordered the CD and will post the photo's when hey arrive. Anyway, after doing our photo's we went outside to board the bus, and to our surprise it was pouring!
Regardless, we boarded the Animal Kingdom bus and were on our way! When we arrived- everyone was leaving. We didn't mind though, it just meant shorter lines for us!
Aaron and I then meandered our way back to Expedition Everest! This is one of my favorite all time rides and I couldn't wait to take Aaron on it! When we arrived, the attraction was closed due to lightening. We decided to get in line and wait. It really wasn't too bad of a wait, and it gave us some cover from the rain. Not to mention Disney spared no expense on this attraction! Waiting in line and exploring all the props was almost as fun as the ride!
Seeing Aaron's reaction through this whole ride was a hoot! It was hilarious listening to him and watching him- the picture really says it all!
After we finished Expedition Everest, we decided to head over to Dinosaur (very similar concept to Indiana Jones at Disneyland, just with Dinosaurs instead of well Indiana Jones). The line wasn't too bad, and again it was indoors. By now the rain had subsided but it was super humid again and A/C was our friend! Prior to getting in line I got one of my absolute favorite Disney Treats:

After riding Dinosaur we walked around Animal Kingdom for a bit- and stumbled upon their icon, the Tree of Life:

We then decided we were hungry for some real food. We didn't make a reservation for dinner that night, and finding a quick service restaurant wasn't proving to be successful. Thankfully we stumbled upon Yak and Yeti, and because it was an Extra Magic Hours night, they were open and had availability! I had read great things about on of their desserts on Disboards.com, but didn't expect the regular food to be so tasty! However, the Cream Cheese filled Won Ton's with honey syrup, pineapple, and vanilla ice cream did not disappoint!
Oh- I almost forgot! On Sunday we were in the gift shop and I had stumbled upon my very own "Disney" backpack! For those of you that don't know, my dad has this super awesome California Adventure backpack that is only used for Disney trips (yes we go that much). Anyway, I've been so envious of his and have been on the look out for my own Disney style backpack and I found it!!
After dinner we decided to head back to the hotel- we were still feeling a bit jet lagged, and wanted to get some rest before heading to Typhoon Lagoon the next morning..
