I think it's great that you're trying something new despite the construction. Maybe you'll like CBR enough to want to return once it's a gondola resort.
You know I used to love riding the skyway in MK with my grandmother, one of the 4 attractions I remember riding with her
However in my old age, while I can go upside down, sideways, really fast, and ride pretty much any coaster I can't do things like extremely high ferris wheels and even the Astro Orbiter freaks me out a bit, so I think the gondola might be out for me when it finally arrives.
We're hoping to try that for the first time next trip, but you've got me a little scared saying it was kind of hard for Chris at 10, as mine will just be 10 and 8 next year.
Well before you get too concerned keep in mind that Chris is a HUGE whiner and complainer when things don't go his way, as well as the worst sore loser ever lol. Yes, it's more difficult than WinterSummerland. Ricky was fine doing it and it's not that Chris couldn't do it, but it took him a bit longer than Ricky which of course didn't go over well. So other than possible teasing between your two if that does indeed ever happen) it might just make for a long afternoon!
Good luck with FP booking!
Thanks, it went well! I should be posting about it this weekend.
I hope you give Splitsville a try, Andi and I use to go each trip to bowl and eat. The loaded fries there are delicious.
Oh good, then let me ask you a question I can't seem to find an answer to! When you've gone,have you made reservations for bowling and then been able to get food at your lane? Or made a dining reservation, eaten and bowled after, or before? Or not made any reservations, gotten a lane and then been able to order food brought to the lane lol?? I don't want to pay in advance for the lanes and I think I'd like to eat at the lane, just can't seem to figure out if I can do that w/o a dining reservation. Even my fellow TA's aren't sure!
How did booking fast passes go?
Had a little trouble getting Flights of Passage when I wanted it but all is good
I have to say, WL CL is my picky husband's favorite CL! He much prefers it to AKL CL.
Nice to hear, thank you for telling me
I thought some of the offerings at AKL CL sounded interesting but the ones at WL sounds equally as good, and actually better for the boys.
I'm along for the ride and what a rocky ride, only 2 pages in and already having to change your dates.
Hi Glenda, glad you're here
Yup I started off with a bang lol
While researching our CL trip on the CL thread I've read about AKL CL isn't getting the best reviews.
I haven't posted over there yet but I've been keeping up with the thread, and I've seen those reviews about AKL CL. On the other hand the "new" WL Club lounge seems to be getting consistently positive reviews. So excited!!
Hope your FP day went well.
All good!
The mister fans really help too. I wished we had them a few weeks ago.
Ugh, our first Aug. trip in 2014 I bought not only Frogg Togg towels but 4 misting fans. Nobody wanted to wear the towels and nobody wanted to carry or wear the fans so the first couple days I either ended up carrying the fans or they were all in the backpack
By day 3 they stayed in the room!
Yay!
Tracy!!
I started reading this morning and had quoted a bunch of stuff. Then had to run to get to work on time because I was so caught up in reading
laughing
then promptly came home a bit ago and started quoting on my own PTR and realized I'd inserted all the quotes for your PTR into mine!
OMG you know how many times I've done this?? I'll insert quotes, have to go, then forget I've done it and either quote one of my reports or someone else's and mix them all up
and you deserve special kudos for working with Ricky's schedule which, by the way, I'm exhausted just reading about
If I post his practice/game schedule whenever we get it THAT will be confusing! Not sure if you've ever seen the "mom" calendars, but they have a space for you to write what each member of your family has to do each day. Mine looks like a toddler scribbled all over it most of the year!!!
but I'm bummed our trips will no longer overlap! I was so excited to try to make a meet happen.
I know, one of the top 3 things that are bumming me out about switching our dates are all the Dismeets that could have been
But... with last night's purchase of my Annual Pass... perhaps our paths will cross in the future
Whoo, congratulations!! I love having an AP. Makes you feel special
I'd be lying if I said Steve and I haven't been discussing our next adults only trip
Breaks? In the middle of the day? I don't understand. Do people
do this?
seriously!! We do NOT take mid-day breaks. I really dislike being in the room when I can be at a park, I get back there and I'm like
However when you know it'll most likely work best for the kids, you just suck it up and do it. Plus if we really don't like taking them we just do what we did on our first summer trip, and simply cut them out
