11/26/2011 EARLY Bananahead reunions cruise

[disneediva]

Austin said Manta was the best ride in Florida!

 

[jollyg]

Morning everyone,

Greg, my Greg wants to do the new Manta coaster. He loves Kraken so I know he would love Manta too.
have fun at Universal today.

Yeah, Manta is really awesome, but I still prefer the Hulk at Universal and The Kraken at Sea World. Manta lifts you up into a postion that looks like your getting a proctology exam?!

Universal was very busy today, but we bought the express passes so we were able to ride all the rides and be back to our condo by 2pm before it got really hot!

Tomorrow we have reservations at Discovery Cove....our favorite place in Oralndo!

Morning everyone,

Hope your all having a good windup to your week. Going to relax today after working all day yesterday then tomorrow its back to my moms place to visit with her over the weekend.
Next weekend is my weekend not to go, so maybe we will find something fun to do.
Gas jumped 17 cents this week
I am afraid to see what it will be a week from now.

Greg have a great day at Discovery Cove

We just got back from Discovery Cove.....what can I say?.....it was awesome!!

They make you use their fish friendly sun screen and its only SPF30 and it wasn't strong enough....we got burned! Good thing we brought our Aruba Aloe vera sunburn lotion with us!

Denise, no dolphin swim this time. We've all done it once before and it was cool, but I didn't feel like spending another $100 per person to do it again.

Looks like we're going to Wet n Wild in the morning and then back to Universal in the evening.

Hope everyone is doing well.

We'll see you in a few days Dawn!

greg, nice video. Lots of fish there. Too many Rays for me. They give me the willies

Of course the photo of the baracuda is scary looking too.

Thanks for sharing.

I HOPE that barracuda was in a TANK!

Hey Dawn,

Just a heads up....the news here is tracking tropical storm "Ana" that they are predicting to be a hurricane somewhere off the coast of Florida sometime Thursday morning.

 

[dsparks]

Hey there my friends!

Had to go get a few groceries to get by the next couple of days, we were totally out of food. Got algae in the pool too from all the rain . Got that taken care of too!

Skylar has a party to go to this evening, then Stephanie and I will start packing the van up. Suppose to be REAL hot tomorrow.

Thanks Greg for the heads up. Not really worried about it though--have been through them a few times. Have you thought about where you want to meet Wednesday? Want to come over to the Music and hang for a while?

Most of the fish and rays don't want to be touched. Some of them will swim close to you to check you out, but they really don't want to touch you or to be touched.

The Baracuda on the other hand is attracted by shiny objects and wanted to see my shiny camera.....he was about 12 inches away went I took that photo!!....the flash scared him off!!

One of the big stingray's was about to give birth while we were there and they said they'd have to close down the lagoon until their divers could capture all the babies (because they're born with barbs/stingers) and would be hazardous to the guests in the lagoon. Fortunately for us she didn't deliver until after the park closed.

YYeess, we arrive Tuesday. I will forever have the days mixed up. Our "dining reservation" starts on Wednesday, so my mind keeps going there. Elizabeth will be around the pool until nap time and then I think they are heading over to AK.

Probably first, hang around the pool and eat some lunch. Then ?? We will not be going in the park that day. Christian and I do not get our passes until Wednesday with the package. Maybe Downtown Disney?

 

[dsparks]

We leave in the night TONIGHT!!!

Greg, we virtually have no plans for the day except we'd like to see you guys.

Ok, sounds good. We're not real sure what we're doing that day. We had thought about using those free Disney park hopper tickets that day or going back to Universal?

Give me a call when you get into town and settle in and we'll hook up. If I don't answer my cell phone just leave me a message because most of the time I can't hear it ringing if we're at the parks.
