Animal Kingdom

Our second day was spent at Animal Kingdom, the fourth and newest park at Disney World. It’s only got a half dozen rides and a half dozen shows, but it’s easy to spend a whole day there by checking out the animal exhibits. 
We went on every ride, including the new roller coaster, Expedition: Everest. It has a great queue and is a lot of fun, although Susan didn't like the part where it goes backwards, and said she'd never ride it again. One ride we always do is Kilimanjaro Safari. It’s very good. Animal Kingdom definitely needs more family style rides like it. It’s a beautiful park, with really great theming, but does get quite humid in the heat. 
That evening we went to Magic Kingdom, the first and oldest park. We enjoyed some rides, meeting characters, and watching the fireworks. Magic Kingdom is of course very similar to Disneyland, though there are several differences. 
Today we went to Blizzard Beach, one of two water parks at Disney World. These two parks are really well done, much better than any other water parks we've visited.
