Africa Wild Trek Experience!

For our work teambuilder this quarter we went on an amazing 3-hour safari trek through the Safi River Valley at Disney’s Animal Kingdom park!

We fed the hippos from about 10 feet away...

 
 
...and then made our way over a very shaky rope bridge to the crocodiles...
 

 
I couldn't resist getting some pictures - for an awesome profile pic on Facebook...:)  
 
 
 
After the crocs, we rode in a safari vehicle over an open savanna teeming with all kinds of native African creatures, from towering giraffes to majestic wildebeest...
 
 

Our knowledgeable guides answered all of our questions and shared little-known insights on the animals on view as well as the general operation of Disney’s Animal Kingdom park.
 
 
Delicious African lunch on the savanna...
 

And the view was breathtaking...
 
 
Throughout the experience a professional photographer took pictures of us with the animals of the Harambe Reserve. At the end of the expedition, we all received a CD at no additional charge capturing literally hundreds of photos from our incredible day. Turns out I didn't need to risk my life on the rope bridge after all :). Best day at work. Ever. :)
