  2. Note even The Varsity refers to chili dogs. Their sauce, though, is not chili, but coarse ground beef with little flavoring. The Varsity has great onion rings and frosted orange, but the hot dogs are little better than those prepared by the average six year old (unless it's your six year old, whose hot dogs would of course be superb). http://www.thevarsity.com/menus/The_Varsity_Downtown_Menu.pdf

  5. Took my 10 year old to KI this past Saturday. Got there around 11am. This was the first time he was tall enough to ride Diamondback (54 inches). Was told there was a 90 minute wait Bought the Fast Lane passes.........rode DB 10 times and stopped counting on the other rides. I know it is expensive.....but so worth it! It was his birthday for god's sake!!! Mama on the other hand was really feeling it the next day; after 4 times on The Beast......but so worth it!!!

  7. So you were the one who inconvenienced all the people on here who have miserable trip reports saying that they waited twice as long as normal for every single ride this past Saturday! .. Oh, wait... Glad you had fun! Happy birthday to your son!

  8. To me, Internet fees and "processing fees" are a low blow and absolutely a way to nickel and dime visitors. The worst instance of I've ever seen of that was the folks selling 3D glasses in line for Disaster Transport. Truly criminal. I also think it's awful to sell them on Boo Blasters (when rides with actual, impressive, high-definition 3D effects do not), but it was deceptive to sell them in line for Disaster Transport. That's worse than an Internet fee, but not by much. Either way you look at it, it could be worse. People at Disneyland would be ecstatic if their unlimited-visit, free-parking pass only went up $14. Theirs went up $150.

  9. Just wanted to say thanks to all of you for participating in this event. I am a past guest of Give Kids the World and really appreciate what they do there. We were guests at GKTW in September 2010 and absolutely LOVED the place. It only has a very small paid staff and operates primarily on volunteer power. Every kid and every family is treated like you wouldn't believe and I have striven to give back to them as much as I can. They have been highly rated as a charity that effectively keeps costs down and uses a significant portion of donations for their mission, so be assured that the money you are raising will not line inappropriate pockets. My wife has made it her mission to sponsor another family's trip there through Make A Wish of Greater Cincinnati in our daughter's name. Because of MAW and GKTW, we were able to take a rare family vacation that everyone was able to enjoy equally and we want to pay it forward. If you are so inclined, check out her page for this year's Walk for Wishes here. For a "first person" account of what GKTW does, I encourage you to check my trip report here. I really cannot overstate how appreciative I am of what GKTW does and the fact that you are all so willing to beat yourselves to death to support them! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

  10. Fixed. For what it's worth, I don't think I've ever had any reception issues on my non-smartphone Verizon phone. Then again, I'm not reliant on 3G or 4G service.

  12. The parks at Walt Disney World are really very, very, very nice parks. But after seeing their "best" rides represented in a "best of" format at Disneyland, it's odd to see them so spread out. You can do Disney World in 2 or 3 days (or less!) if rides are what you're after, and I don't doubt you'd leave with fantastic memories as a result. But if you wanted a vacation, and a chance to take in the details and see the "best kept secrets" of the parks, you'd want more. Disney officials would have you believe that half of the fun of Disney world is in Downtown Disney, water parks, shopping, dining, etc. I bet it's true, if you had the time and energy to do it all. Universal packs a lot into its two parks and does so with more charm than people may give it credit for (Seuss Landing is really just incomparable, in my opinion). If you haven't been there in a decade, you may as well not have been there. More than any other park I've experienced, Universal has no qualms about replacing classic attractions with whatever the newest, hottest title is (which has been good and bad in the past). As was said, they've got Spider-Man, Jurassic Park, Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey, Dueling Dragons Challenge, Hulk, Cat in the Hat, Revenge of the Mummy, Men In Black: Alien Attack, Disaster, and the oddly fun E.T. Islands of Adventure is on-par with and even excels beyond any of Disney's domestic parks in terms of theme and detail. There's a lot to think about! I'm happy to help if you have questions.

  13. If you expect to get soaked, I'm sure you found the locker pricing a delight!

  14. When I go to a waterpark, I expect to get soaked, and sometimes unexpectedly. The people on the action river that were the most puzzling to me were those that were trying to avoid getting wet. People were covering and hiding their face and even using empty tubes as shields. I made those people my primary targets.

  16. Is there ANYTHING you like about Soak City? I suspect that the fee is there so people don't sign up then never show up...
