So whilst I don't want to bore anyone with tales of my vacation, I do want to give a quick update.
We are a family of 11. Big sis, BIL, 2 nephews plus their girlfriends, and niece all who travelled from England and then from Canada me DH, DS and DD.
Day 1 IOA, fantastic day had by all did all the rides, crowds were good, no longer than 40 minute lines.
Day 2 Discovery Cove - rained all day until the family did their dolphin interaction when the sun came out - how lucky we're we!
Day 3 Bradenton beach, sun ut, breeze blowing, waves to jump
Day 4 US and what a day that was! We went on Sunday, I have to admit to being a little worried about weekend crowds but the Undercover Tourist crowd calendar said it should be okay and it was. 15 minutes was the longest we had to wait and that was for RRR. Let me just say that was the most bizarre ride I think I have ever done. Doing loops with just a lap bar was a little freaky but I was glad I did it. the rest of the park was just wonderful and did everything without being totally exhausted.
Day 5 was devoted to Busch Gardens, Tampa. Another fantisc day with my favorite ride Sheikra, and again very few rides that we waited for more than 30 minutes for. Most of them was 20 and a couple we just walked straight on to.
Day 6 ...well it's still early and whilst I am doing this the rest of the grop and just trying to make up their mind. Maybe Wet n Wild....
And then we still have four more days to go!!!!!
