Once completely inside of Disney's Animal Kingdom Bond and I took a turn to the right and started working our way around the loop.  First stop Dinoland U.S.A.



This giant dinosaur skeleton was part of The Boneyard which is a huge play area for kids.  Had Bond been three years younger he'd have been all over it with little hopes of seeing the rest of the park as there's no way outside of him passing out for me to extract him from it.



Our first ride in Dinoland U.S.A. was the really amazing Dinosaur ride. 



If you like dark rides Walt Disney World is really the land of dark rides with Dinosaur being one of them.  On Dinosaur you board a wicked all terrain time traveling vehicle and are sent back right before the meteor that killed off the dinosaurs strikes in order to capture and bring back with you an Iguanodon.  The car throws you all over and there are plenty of run ins with all kinds of dinosaurs including those who would just love a nice human snack before the end of the world as they know it.  Dinosaur was a blast.

Oh outside of Dinosaur is this replica of Sue who is the most complete Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton ever found and now resides in one of my favorite museums the Field Museum of Natural History in Chicago.   



After the life like dinosaurs of Dinosaur it is time for a little bit of fun over at Chester & Hester's Dino-Rama!
