Avatar!

Today we went to the Animal Kingdom and finally got to ride the Avatar ride! It's impossible to get a Fast Pass (hotel guests get to make Fast Passes a month earlier than we do) and the wait is at least 2 hours. But Pete was able to get us in because he occasionally uses a scooter to handle the aftereffects of a major surgery he had years ago. We loved the ride - it's Disney's best so far! Pete is The Man!
We were able to get Fast Passes to the Pandora river ride. It's nothing like Avatar but it's still enjoyable.
The other great thing about Animal Kingdom is, of course, the animals. The great lowland Gorillas move easily around their large area, sometimes in view and sometimes not - it's up to them. But on a sunny day they seem to like sitting in the wide open, soaking up the sun and watching people who are watching them.
The Lion King show is always good. It's on 6 times a day with rotating actors and they all are very good. They have fire dancers, aerialists, singers, stilt-walkers, and lots of singing.  And the "monkeys" are wonderful acrobats.
