Hi

Thinking of taking my 7 year old son here at Christmas. Has any one ever been there as I believe they have it every year. A whole room of things made from ice including slides. I'd appreciate any previous visitors reports

We went last year - on the spur of the moment - just a few tips:

1. Make sure you are properly clothed - long trousers and trainers for instance. They issue you with insulated coats but it is minus goodness knows what - I went in shorts and flip-flops and was frozen to the bone!
2. Take your camera - it is amazing.
3. Take time out and then go back in if you get cold - Gaylord is lovely to look around.

Well worth the visit - we will be going back this year and I think I will even have a go down some of the ice slides!

Enjoy!
Nikki

Better put on your thermals by the sounds of it Liesa! :) And watch out you don't get frostbite! ;)

Hi Christine

I have just booked online to take the family to the Ice Palace at Gaylord Palms. It looks amazing and we have heard very good things about it. Booking online was easy and you can even print out the tickets although each one took more than a page! It says that you can visit at any time during its opening hours on the day you specify when you book so at least you are not tied down to a particular time.

Hope you enjoy it - we are going on 23 Dec and can't wait![msnsmile2][msnsmile2]
