Mac - glad I could loan you one of my kids that time! The girl one is now a smidge too tall so I’m down to one barely short enough.
Tyger- I’m a bit late, but good luck!
Charade - hope the showcase was fun!
Ck- Hope you serviced the small dog wind warning. I have a comical picture in my...
The same thing that brought me to Florida - Universal. They are building a new park in Beijing and my husband is working on it.
I hope your rain ends. Cold rain is the worse! Growing up in Massachusetts, it seemed like those cold, wet months went on forever.
Hi all. Looks like I have a LOT of catching up to do. I had a lot of trouble reading this site on my other device and finally got a new one. So, hopefully this fixes it. So far, so good. Glad to see so many of names I recognize and some new ones! I’ll need some time to get through all the...
There are no concerts in September other than the separately ticketed Rock the Universe event. The Universal side will close early due to HHN as well. The dates of both of those events are out and on their website.
We really liked it. I'm not sure if you saw last year's but it was similar. There was more fire though - so don't stand too close if you don't like all that heat! I'm sensitive to light so I had to wear my sunglasses due to all the fire. (The Universal new night time show was really good too...
I use a running belt to hold my cell phone. If women's shorts were better, then I'd use my pockets. That means I could do all rides without a locker except for Hulk and RRR. Those are too rough for me these days anyway. But - those locker areas aren't the ones I really, really try to avoid...
Good morning all!
Lynne- Glad everyone is okay.
Robo - Happy Birthday to your son!
Bobbie- Have a great trip!
I realize I missed commenting on so many more but it's so much to keep up with after being away from the boards! Kid 1 and Kid 2 got home a couple days ago from an overnight camp...
And it's Monday again. How did that happen so quickly??
I now have everyone in my family back in the house - Yay!! And we are back to the normal routine of things. Tomorrow is my birthday and I have the normal things planned yet again. I need to come up with something good to give myself as...
I've gone solo a few times. I'm not a 40 year old man but a 45 year old woman. No one gives me any odd looks no matter what I ride. The High in the Sky ride is one of my favorites.
Another tip - despite the receipt saying it had to be used on the same day, we've never had an issue with using it on a different day. You can't save the drink that comes with your entree. But we have saved the other drink for the next day. As well as the snack.
You can decide to buy the quick service meal plan actually at the counter. So, I'd wait and see if it makes sense for you. It really depends on the meal. Also note that you don't have to buy it for all in your party. As a family of 5, we used to just buy 2-3 adult plans and it would be...
My geography isn't quite that bad. :) I was using where I used to live as an example of another place where it was difficult to find a basement and how we found one. A lot of the southeast doesn't have basements. So very different from when I lived in the northeast.
Didn't care for it. I've done it a few times now and it's not getting any better. (First two times were right when it opened and it didn't work right. Third was with my husband for his first time. Fourth was with the kids for their first time and fifth was to get out of a thunderstorm). I...
Good morning all! Time has been slipping away from me with different people in my house going away and coming back. Eldest son returned recently from his 12 day trip. They did horseback riding, Sliding rock in NC, white water rafting, fireworks at DC, liberty bell in PA, and went to a couple...
Thanks all. We want to do a Mixology class so I really want him to be able to handle the kids club. Otherwise, we may have to enlist one of our older kids as babysitter. I did write down that my teen had permission to pick him up from the kids club too. I figured the more people, the better.
Neighborhood pool party was a bust. Our normal "afternoon" thunderstorms started before afternoon. So we were stuck inside the building for over an hour waiting for the bad lightning to end. On the plus side, I didn't have to deal with sweating. On the minus side, my hard work of...
Good idea. I'll initially try during an activity. He may or may not do the activity. He does so much better with a sibling but I don't want to make her go to that younger group too much. Maybe I'll bribe her for the first time. :) Are there many kids at the very top of the age range in...
