Louie is a little creepy! Good thing he has Baloo there to balance him out
Aww that does stink that no one was going to meet Daisy. I feel like that M&G spot is tricky because it's hidden!
Nice taking advantage of the late hours at Blizzard Beach. Great pics of the view from Summit Plummet.
Monkeys in general kind of freak me out.
And Baloo has those kind of dead eyes that are weird too.
I'm normally an AM water park person, or early afternoon. Going during the evening was definitely a nice change!
Summit Plummet... that's the one I've never done. I've made it halfway up the steps! I have a fear of heights that I usually do pretty well overcoming but the idea of sliding down from that height is too much for me. So I'm in awe of you!
I read your review of Boma. I stick to what I feel is safe food and my sister is extremely picky but we both enjoyed our dinners at Boma. She finds enough options for her and I can try a few things while our family gets to try everything.
Can't wait to hear more about your trip!
I don't love heights either, believe it or not-typically I experience vertigo when I'm up too high, but I was okay there for whatever reason. The height of the slide isn't even the bad part, it's the water force and the end wedgie that really kills me. Boma was very enjoyable!
I love those shots at Summit Plummit! I've never been to Blizzard Beach and I only spent a few hours at Typhoon Lagoon (in 2007!) so I'm loving all the water park shots.
It's been two long, sad years since I'd made it to a water park. Most days I'll tell you I love TL more, but I did enjoy BB quite a lot this time!
DH and I did both water parks as part of our 2 week long honeymoon. I rode Summit Plummet once...and that was more then enough for me. I never looked at the pictures, but when I got to the bottom, the photo pass photographer was kind enough to take pictures of me with my bathing suit half down, and as I stood up to fix my massive wedgie!
Later that afternoon, my DH decided he wanted to ride again. Needless to say, I stayed down at the bottom and just watched.
Perhaps if we ever make it back to BB, I will try again....but for now, I'm happy just to hear about it, lol!
Kind of like this?
That's my "wedgie shot" from 2010. Thankfully my bathing suits (don't know if you've noticed but I've had the same one for four or five [or more] years now, just in different colors) are pretty sturdy and have never fallen down!
Oof - water slide wedgies are the worst! Looks like you had a great time though!
Yes they are! The "colon cleanse" that comes with them isn't particularly nice either.
Loving your trip report
We plan on going next August and staying at CBR. What dates were you there in August ?
I was there August 13-18. I was hesitant about it at first but ended up liking it a lot.
You're brave. How is the cleanliness of the water parks? I loved them as a child but haven't been back yet with my kids. I get skeeved at the thought of all the people in the same water and things floating around.
I think the water parks are clean as a whole-but I also work in a group home and, as such, there are very few things that skeeve me out. The only complaint I've ever had is later in the day when the lazy rivers get kind of dirty with leaves and whatnot.
I just about died at your trip down memory lane with Dinosaur. I wish my mom had bought the picture from the first time my family rode it. I was 11 or 12 years old and the vast majority of the rides scared me...so of course luck would have it that I got put in the front right seat, aka the scariest seat in the car. I spent the entire ride clinging to my mom, burying my face against her arm and gibbering in terror. It was pretty great.
When I finally rode it with my eyes open years later it was like a whole new ride.
I read your food review first and really enjoyed it, so was happy to see the rest of it over here. Did have a moment in the last few minutes when I went "MACARONI AND CHEESE HOT DOG?!" because I didn't know that was a thing that existed and it combines two of my favorite foods that I definitely shouldn't eat but totally will when I'm there next year.
Maybe some day I'll be brave enough to make it through with my eyes open! PB had the mac n cheese hotdog topped with bacon that they sell at DHS. Not something I'm brave enough to try but he loved it!
I read through your DLR trip report yesterday and then started reading this one while putting my daughter to sleep tonight. I love your floral hidden mickey tank top! Where did you get it?
