Trying to figure out a way to let dd's know that we'll be going next week. Was going to just wrap up the confirmation letter and give it to them on Christmas morning, but thought you guys would have a more unique way of letting them know, :). Any ideas? Thanks!
 
Ooh..have fun! We went to Great Wolf Lodge Poconos Mountain last week. It was awesome. Good luck finding a way to surprise them!
 
Very exciting! Mrudman are you South African? We just had an amazing trip to the kalahari this last september
 
I'm guessing you mean the water park in Ohio, right? We have one in Wisconsin as well---lots of fun!

The logo for the Kalahari is an elephant.
Maybe you could buy a stuffed elephant, and tie the confirmation letter around its neck with a ribbon?

Or you could make up a letter of your own to put on the elephant saying.....
This sweet little elephant is looking for adventure. Will you please take her on a sleepover safari? She'd be most comfortable in a warm, wet environment. Can you think of a place, not too far away, where little elephant may find some of her African friends?
(Or something to that effect?)

Best of luck---what a great surprise!!!
 
Sorry, guess I should've been more specific, lol. Yea, it's the Kalahari in Ohio... Although taking a trip to the actual Kalahari would be a dream come true, lol.

Thanks for the idea about the poem, that would be really cute! I think I may have a stuffed elephant around here I could use too, :)
 
Ooo when are you going? I'll be there the 3rd and 4th :). I live in amichigan and they have a great military rate!

I thought it was the one in the Poconos Mountains. It just opened :).

I apologize for the misunderstanding. I had no idea there were waterparks in the U.S. Named after our kalahari desert.

Enjoy your trip:wave:
 
Oh please don't apologize.. I should've been more specific in my original post, :) Would love to visit the true Kalahari someday.

Yea, I had to go for it when i saw that deal come through. My daughters are so excited to be going back! We went last year when I was able to get a good deal, and they've been wanting to go back since.

Our family will be there then, as well. There was an awesome rate. I am so excited. My little one is finally tall enough for some of the bigger slides.
