Started my last day packing up and checking out of the Boardwalk. After dropping the suitcases at the airline check and carryons at bell services hopped on a bus to the Animal Kingdom. While en-route booked Fastpasses for the Safari for later in the morning. Upon arriving at the park wandered through park spending some time on Discovery Island walking the trails.
