About half way through the ride, it pours. I'm from Oregon, I'm used to rain. But this was Florida rain. It's thick and you can feel the heavy water hit every time. We got off Kali and ran to Everest. Surprisingly there was a short line, so we got right on the ride. Little did we know why people were hiding in the gift shops for cover. We were at the beginning of a thunder storm! We had the most painful ride of Everest ever cause the rain was like small rocks being pelted on our faces we couldn't see anything outside the mountain. Since we were already drenched, we splashed in puddles all the way to Dinoland. We decided to go to Dinosaur cause it was an indoor ride so it wouldn't be shut down due to thunder and lighting. I figured that would be the first ride people would run to because it's an awesome ride, and it's indoors. We went and found the place nearly empty!! So me and Josh got to ride Dinosaur...and then requested a re ride and got our own jeep to ourselves. It was just another wild day at Animal Kingdom. :)

Birds in Florida
The birds here, ARE CRAZY! I've never seen such weird looking birds!!
Today at animal kingdom, I was walking to go backstage when I saw this crane. It was doing the weirdest walk I've ever seen, it reminded me of the lion king when Simba is stalking Zazu. A photopass employee walks by and stops to join me in the entertainment coming from this bird. The bird sneeks past this guy who is passed out on this bench and the photo guy took the picture and put his pass into the man's backpack. hahaha
You think that would be the end of it. BUT WAIT THERES MORE!
The bird continued it's swag into a bush and then BAM it snatched up a LIZARD!! it had a lizard handing out of it's beak squirming around!! I'm floored at this point and a small crowd starts to form watching this bird with a lizard hanging out of its mouth. The bird attempts to kill it's pray by chomping down on the lizard, but it continued to struggle. Then the bird had enough, and swallowed the lizard whole!! Since the anatomy of this bird is very thin, you could see the live lizard moving in the neck of the bird.
Wow, whata wild day.

Disney Days
Man, I have been so busy! It's great! so much to do!
First off I made these great friends, the group of 6 meet up at our first bus stop after check in and we've been together ever since! We are....THE CORE!
First off there's
Bethany: She's from Las Vegas Nevada, goes to school at BYU-I and works Quick food and beverage at Typhoon Lagoon! We are both HUGE Star War fans, and can't wait for star wars weekends to start!!
Then it comes down to the non member, Drew Dicksen. He's from Chicago and goes to school at Robert Morris University. He plays volleyball as a 6 6' setter. We get along pretty good, and he loves to act and perform. Oh and if you ever have ANY question about a Disney Park, just ask Drew, he's better then Wikipedia when it comes to Disney knowledge! His roll is Quick food at The Wide World of Sports.

Then there's me.
The Oregonian who has always had a true Disney heart, I am so blessed to be living my dream of working as a Disney cast member and am reminded of it every night as I leave the turnstiles. I work attractions at Disney's Animal Kingdom (so far my favorite park!!!) I love animals! and I love Disney, so it was a perfect fit for me! Disney is all about dreams, wishes, and magic, and I am just a girl who has gotten to experience what it feels like to be working for the Mouse. :)
Have a magical day!
