Pretrip Preamble

[hildasmuriel]

We're off in about 8 hours time. I haven't done the packing, ironing or even written my packing list. My daughter is out at a birthday party until 10.30 tonight.....and I'm starting to think we must be mad to have arranged a 2.55 am crossing on Eurotunnel. I was hoping to be all packed by now and sitting relaxing before going to bed about 6pm. Instead I am on here, doing this and killing more time.
We are going for 5 days/4nights once again at Sequoia Lodge. Son (15) still refusing to join us. We tried to bribe him with offers of not having to come to the Park everyday, lazy times lying in, lots of swimming in the pool and a day trip to Paris with his dad. No, he'd still rather go and stay with my sister for the week than come with us. {sob}

We have booked our meals - Steakhouse Brunch tomorrow, Beaver Creek Tavern on Monday, Silver Spur on Tuesday, Walts on Wednesday and the Lucky Nugget for lunch on Thursday before we leave. Also noted that Salon Mickey is open Thursday afternoon because of the shareholders meeting, so may take advantage of that.
I am also looking out for some fiendish questions for the quiz in March - you have been warned!

That's all - see you next week.

Hope you have a FANTASTIC trip

Sorry to hear about your DS not wanting to come.

Our son is the same age and was NOT happy about leaving his DGF and not

seeing her for Valentines day

We got around it by ordering a bouquet of balloons to be delivered on the day

and made sure he could shop for some nice gifts for her.

Never mind all will come together and you will have a great time

Have a fantastic time! We got back late last night and had a brilliant time as always.

Parks were busier than last year but we still managed to get everything done that we wanted to. Loved the Cheyenne, our new favourite.

Crush's Coaster was excellent. But be warned, the line is sooo long. We were in the Studios 20 mins before official opening and the queue was already long. Once they opened the ride at 10am we had a 50 min wait from that point.
TOT was great, much the same as the WDW version. The Cars ride was also good fun, we queued 20 mins for that.

Definately make use of the EMH. We got most of Fantasyland done in the first hour.

Have a great time.

Leanne, hoping to read about your stay too!

Is the cars ride like test track? And is it suitable for a coaster novice who thinks the Legoland baby dragon is quite fast? DS(8) is only just getting into "big" rides and doesn't do loops or backwards.
