Advice on Schedule - First Timers

[chrissiecutie]

Thanks chrissiecutie. I do appreciate the feedback! We went with a travel agent who is a family member on my husband's side and lets say it hasn't gone well for me. Unfortunately, I was going along with her because I don't know the area much but now that I'm learning thanks to everyone on here I'm trying to get it changed but of course I'm having some difficulties with her. Thanks again and hopefully we can get this fixed!

I SO know how that goes! My mother used to be a travel agent and how can you NOT book your travel with your own mother?? However, my mother and I have VERY different ideas when it comes to travel. She even cancelled one of my trips several years ago (when I was early 20's) because she didn't think I could afford it.

My advice...never book your travel though family members. After my mom "lovingly" cancelled my trip so many years ago, I vowed never to book my travel with her again. I do call her and ask for advice occassionally so that makes her feel useful and of help to me. It's a win-win for us both!

Live and learn, right?

To me Sea World = Cess Pool. I would drop it off my list. I think the place is dirty, on a hot day they had NO cold water for sale... AND almost EVERY attraction exited into a gift shop. Talk about a scam.

The most upsetting thing to me was at the "tide pool" there were signs all over the place that said please leave the animals in the water as it stresses them to take them out... Well there was a kid taking out all the animals, and I pointed it out to a worker and she just shrugged her shoulders and said "they do it all the time." Ugh, really?? That was the end of any respect for Cessworld for me.
