Hi all!
Thanks for all the advice. Now I have to figure out how to catalog it! Additional info: The trip is May 26-June 1. The twin 17 yr olds are girls, and the two ten year olds are cousins, a boy and a girl. Only about half the group will be thrill-seekers, if that. I haven't ridden a theme park ride in YEARS because up until recently I've been too overweight. Now I'm scared to death of whether I can still handle it or not!
I think we are going to want try to do most stuff together. Our strategy is to decide the things each part of the group wants to do the very most and sort of map it out. So I'm guessing what some of you are saying is it's not practical to just go into every park and work your way through it in order?
Re: Character dining- I don't think any member of our group is dying to meet any particular character except one of my daughters is absolutely DYING to meet Goofy. Looking back at my mom's message, she says we are booked at Tusker House, Le Cellier, and Aloha. My daughter and youngest sister, both artists, are booked to meet an animator but I'm not sure where.
Re: the 3D thing: you do, in fact,
not have to have both eyes to see in 3D
IF you have a pair of 3D glasses with a red and a blue half in one lens. My daughter is blind in one eye from an accident and her stepmom one time took a pair of cardboard 3D glasses and cut each lens in half and put them together in one side and lo and behold, my daughter could see the 3D stuff. Problem is, those glasses are long lost.
Also, we are not doing the water parks at all, and don't know if we'll make it to Downtown. Also, even though my two sisters and I are all adults, if we do any drinking our parents will look at us and purse their lips and frown in disapproval, so I will probably be foregoing the Lava Lamp suggestion!
But thanks.
Anyway, keep them coming and I will try to go back through and take notes!!
