AKL - at night.


Animal Kingdom Lodge at night - gorgeous. The activities at this place just keep going and going. The big kids spent an evening hanging around the resort while the little kids and Grandparents called it a night. (really just can't remember which night we did this?!?!)

We first went out to the Uzima Pool Bar, and were going to get a bite to eat, but it was a bit cool and drizzling, so we just grabbed some margaritas and went back inside.

We ended up relaxing in a corner at the Victoria Falls Lounge which overlooked Boma, and did something that we'd never done before, ordered room service to a bar?!?!? They didn't really have much food to offer at the bar and we weren't hungry enough for the restaurant, so this seemed like a good idea. And it was.

Yummy snacks and we didn't have to go anywhere else. And this is where we were introduced to the Zebra Domes, or Amarula balls or whatever you want to call them, just a delicious yummy dessert that I need to remember.
While we nibbled and had some drinks, we could hear the kids with their drums having a nightly parade in the lobby - just not our kids, they could never stay awake long enough.

We also adventured outside to the night vision viewing area. Which was super cool to see the animals at night, and pretty funny to see Jay practically harassing the poor guide - I wish I could remember some of the things he said that had us cracking up over. After a stop at the campfire, we called it a night. It really was a magical place at night, wish the kids could have enjoyed it.
