Am I stating the really obvious when I say prices for food, goods and products have gone up all over the globe? I don't think so. I only have to look at my weekly shopping bill here compared to...
Posted by Dad's Taxi......"I like the carousel things they pack your groceries into the carrier bags on, then spin it round so you get a full bag (well, full-ish) to put into your trolley whilst...
I was sorry to see the Back to the Future ride go but the Simpsons ride in its place is excellent and I'm not even a fan of the Simpsons.
Yes, I remember the 'love bugs'. We were at Wet 'n' Wild the first time we experienced them, they were everywhere. We were forever swatting them away.
Many of the above but also would like to add all those little lizard things running about everywhere and K92FM in the car. It's great to be able to listen to a 'country' music station. I sometimes...
We were there in October, we had to queue for a table for ages then were sat right in front of the elephant who trumpeted loud and frequently.[msnscared] The service was good but the food wasn't...
Virgin never seem short of customers though, not out of Manchester anyway. I've never seen a decent deal yet with them.
We haven't got to Typhoon Lagoon yet but have done Blizzard Beach twice and Aquatica once. Was really underwhelmed with Aquatica to be honest. My children were 12 and 10 when we first visited and...
Really great trip report. Could definitely identify with the Walmart queue. We've often said we don't know how they get away with being so slow at the checkouts, especially as they seem to like to...
We went on the 26th October last year during the school holidays but remember that it's only school holidays for the UK. Having been previously during May, July and August I couldn't believe how...
We actually did do it in the end with our kids 15 and 13. We there there on Thursday, 29th October and despite getting there early it was impossible to do all the haunted houses. The queue for SAW...
This was the bestest, wettest ride we've ever been on. We took my brother's family with us in October, told them not to wear jeans but something that would dry out relatively quickly. When the 9 of...
This happened to my family in October. It was only when we arrived at MCO that I noticed the green waiver stubs were still in from our previous trip to Atlanta in April. The man at immigration was...
I have a work colleague whose brother was a Globespan pilot. He was given his redundancy notice some weeks ago now, guess they must have known what was coming?
When we took our own Sat Nav this year (preloaded with US maps) we didn't need zip codes for any of the parks, you could search by 'Attraction'. When we started entering the name of the park, it was...
We flew Manchester to Orlando with Virgin on 26th October in economy and can confirm that there is no charge for the drinks. They do a couple of trolley services then basically anything else you...
I agree with ukman even though I'm one of life's 'planners'. If you plan every day, down to the last detail there is a danger of becoming overloaded. Whilst it's understandable you will want to...
It all depends how old the GHDs are. The newer models come with dual voltage so work fine in US.
We just got back and were there from 26/10 to 3/11. We didn't queue for anything. Walked straight onto the front row of Kraken at Sea World. In fact, when we were at Islands of Adventure we'd been...
On a scale of 1-10 how scary are we talking here? My 15 year old son desperately wants to do HHN but my 13 year old daughter is not so sure. We went into a Ripleys Haunted Mansion when we were in...
I thought I read in another thread that it doesn't have over the shoulder restraints, just a lap bar because it doesn't do loops but those pictures make it look as though it does. I'm a bit of a...
We're off on the 26th October. I was wondering what time it gets light and goes dark at that time of year. I remember when we were there in July/Aug 2008 and I was surprised at how late in the...
Thanks Ali, here's hoping it's officially opened by the time I go.
Just curious, what's a soft opening? We're going on 26th October so hopefully it will be fully operational by then?
