Animal Kingdom

We had a brief trip to Disney World last August, and only got one day. Here are our pictures from Animal Kingdom.

We got there in time for the opening..

Kathleen with a cast-replica of the famous T-Rex skeleton from her then-new employer, the Field Museum.

In front of the new ride, Expedition Everest. It's really cool..

There was a lazy Komodo dragon on the Asia-themed nature trail.

Ha!

That's the centerpiece of Animal Kingdom, the Tree of Life.

On the Kilimanjaro Safari..

The animals get much closer to you than you might think they would..

A Gnu!

..and an ostrich!
