Monday 20th October 2003 - Day 37/273 - Kissimee, Florida

Today me and Kev went to the 'Animal Kingdom'. It was the same story as yesterday with a 25 minute public bus into the transportation centre.  This time we caught a Disney bus out to the 'Animal Kingdom'.

Again, like 'Epcot', this park seems set up for teaching kids in a fun environment, but again I have seen better at 'Marwell Zoo'. The thing with Marwell is that it doesn't have the disney characters walking about. The highlight was the African safari. The only other rides of note were the 'Kali River Rapids', 'Dinosaur' and 'Primeval Whirl', but they were not that special. There is also a section called 'Conservation Station' where they try to explain the work that they are doing here. It felt more like them trying to justify themselves and lots of backslapping. We stayed around today for Mickey's Jammin' Jungle Parade, at 17.00, which was really good.

Finally it was back to the hostel, knackered and ready to do it all again tomorrow.
