The Caring for Giants tour was amazing - this is the backstage Elephant experience. Our guide was Jake, and he was very knowledgeable and excited about his job! Took about an hour, we walked backstage, took a van even further, and stood behind one of the elephant areas while Jake told us facts, answered questions, and generally made us all love elephants more than we had. 12 people on our tour. We had four of the ladies there, and were probably within 30-50 feet of them.
Today continued the trend of perfect timing as well.
- Walked up to Nomad Lounge and no wait list (got the pork belly, bread service, and Snow Leopards
- Wandering and said “I wish we could see Kevin!”, and Kevin came around the corner minutes later.
- Everest was down most of the day, we were about to leave the park, I checked just in case, and it had come back up, but with no Genie+, but we headed that way anyway. Right when we were about to get in the standby lane (for 30 min), K refreshed the app and suddenly there was an immediate LL available, which we took and walked right on.
- We were walking to the bus stop, got under the cover, and the skies opened up with torrential rain the minute we stepped under cover.
- Walked up to our room just as Mousekeeping was leaving our room, and had nice little surprises from them.
Headed to MNSSHP tonight… can’t wait, one more post to go!
