Rain and Discovery Cove

[kitch50]

Hi
We are off to DC on Saturday (17th) and rain has been forecast for the morning, does anyone know if we can change the day we go or is it still worth going and hope for the best[?].

You would need to ring them direct if you want to change 1-877-557-7404 I understand you are allowed one free change

I thought a lot of the point of Discovery Cove is that you get wet anyway!!!

Just brave it out - we are still going !
Even if it rains it will still be warm.

If you had seen and heard the thunderstorms that accompanied the rain we had yesterday you wouldn't want to be out in it!!!
Scared my lil 'un half to death.

We have decided to go anyway and have fun whatever the weather

We had rain yesterday but didn't hear any thunder or see any lightning. What you have to consider is that if there is any lightning in the area they will have you out of the water very quickly, that could spoil the day for everyone.

Wendy, how was it?

Hi
It was the most amazing day, arrived at the park for 8 am, it was really cold, and us in only our strappy tee shirts, everyone else in fleeces! but by the time we had breakfast and lots of hot coffee it was time for our 9.55 dolphin swim with Lester and when we met him we forgot all about the fact that our teeth were chattering. By 11 am the sun had come out and the rest of the day was glorious, we also met Karen (Pluto) and her family, it turned out they were behind us on the deck chairs! a very small world. We ended up leaving DC at 5 pm exhausted from all the excitment and swimming - a truly lovely day - perfect, and worth every penny.[msnsmile2][msnsmile2][msncool]

Glad to here you had a great time. We went in January, so had the same cold start to the day. The wet suits were great at keeping you warm though, if we got a bit chilly swimming with the fish, we would go in the lazy river bit which was so warm!
