While in Orlando, CW and I visited Disney's Animal Kingdom, a cross between a zoo and a theme park.
Ever since reading Life of Pi I've been itching to visit a zoo, so CW and I went to Animal Kingdom. It is definitely not a typical zoo. There are many shows, and some rides. An interesting ride was the safari, an open bus ride through a recreation of Africa, complete with real lions, elephants, flamingos, and more.
