Hi there

ALSO - would like to book the Hoop de Doo review at Fort Wilderness on one of the nights after a rest day or water park

ALSO - will re-visit IoA for Halloween Horror Night when the dates are published.

ALSO - are there any must do restaurants that you could recommend for 2 adults and one quite grown-up 11yr old boy??? Race Rock poss (have been before and loved it).


Is there anything I have failed to include???- phew I'm exhausted looking at my schedule :confused2

Thanks guys, any input good or bad would be most appreciated.

Looks ok to me, we are doing BG on the 17th as well - unless I alter my itinerary again ;) both BB & TL are open until the 29th, when TL closes, maybe you could squeeze both in ?

As for restaurants, how about Whispering Canyon ? - good for a laugh, & we are going to try prime time & sci fi dine in this time.

Lookin good Lisa.

What about MNSSHP?

[coastergirls]

I was just away to say MNSSHP but REh beat me to it. Also what about Seaworld SPooktacular if not MNSSHP.

Thanks Guys :)

I had read all about Whispering Canyon and so will add this to the list - going to make ADR's tomorrow as cleaning tonight in prep for a visit from the out-laws t :confused2

I wanted to do MNSSHP but DH and DS (11 going on 30) said they didn't want to do it :cry:

They are all set to do HHN which will be their holiday highlight. They say MNSSHP would be just too twee and babysish (yeah right - for an 11yr old!!!). I am outnumbered, but will work on them a bit more ;)

Ali-s - thanks for the water park info - that is great as we have not done BB as it was closed for the season last time in Oct '03.

Haven't done Busch for 14 years and so will see you there!!

thanks all

Looks great Lisa! We are there until the 19th, but our paths don't seem to cross. I am insisting on MNSSHP on my birthday! ;) My lot are too easily scared for HHN I think. If you look on the Universal website for the park hours, you can guess which nights will be HHN as IOA closes an hour early.
I can recommend Sci-Fi and Whispering Canyon, both good fun and good food.
Your DS would probably enjoy some time at DisneyQuest.

dont know what you DS is into but if he likes computors or anything creative he will LOVE disney quest at DTD. Otherwise it looks good to me!
