You're killing me!!! More updates please! I want to know so badly how the surprise turned out. Just for the record - if it didn't go well, I'm a totally different nighttowll. ;) But seriously, I'm glad to see it looks like everyone's having a good time so far on the trip. Sorry your daughter...

I'm not sure. It depends on what all you are planning on doing, how crowded it is, and how many times lightning strikes off the coast and / or rain showers shut down the park. We've gone and been done by 4:00 and gone and stayed all day and not gotten to do hardly anything because of bad weather...

Glad I could help. I hope you guys have a great time. My family really enjoys Busch Gardens, especially the animal component. Does your daughter like other animals besides giraffe? There are quite a few really nice zoo like animal exhibits at Busch Gardens. There is an exhibit where you can...

Yes, sorry. I didn't go into detail, as most of the tips such as arriving early or before opening have already been mentioned and pop up all the time on the boards and in guide books.

Love Tusker House. Ask for the juice. Try a little of everything to see what you like. You maybe surprised. There are a lot of rice, quinoa, and curry dishes that I had to convince the kids to taste because they were unfamiliar to them, but they ended up liking quite a few. Be prepared for...

Best advice I ever got - Do research / buy a guide book / use a touring plan Best tip I've only seen once, but was really useful: If flying, pack a cardboard box or boxes full of items you will use up like snacks and breakfast foods, liquids you can't take on the plane, disposable cups / plates...

We don't usually get much of a chance to lay by the pool. Normally, I plan a trip and plan in breaks. Then someone comes behind me and is like, "Ohh, free time to fit in this and this and this..." And, there go my rest breaks. I'm usually lucky if I'm able to schedule in a few hours at the pool...

MK - Stitch - Probably the only attraction I refuse to go on. My family had a horrible first experience with a malfunctioning harness. Never went back after that. If they replace the harness system with a lap belt or something else, I might try it again. Otherwise, I'm staying clear. Epcot -...

Glad to see others feel this way. Thought I was just getting old and going blind.

Not sure you would be interested but Busch Gardens has a Safari tour you can book for $30 a person where you get to pet and feed giraffe. You go out for about an hour or so in an open air vehicle and explore their safari area which is pretty similar to Disney's area. Then while out, you stop and...

Yes, thank you! First thing that popped into my head. One of my all time favorite "shows" was a storm trooper pre-opening ceremony stand-up comedy type "show" that used to take place at HS during SW weekends. Not sure it still happens. Wish I had a recording of it. Favorite parade ever...

So true!!! I know you're joking, but no one in my family reacted well to not having a down to the minute plan. It's the one thing I didn't plan for, how the kids would react to not having a plan to follow! Complete disaster! As far as the OP... I'd definitely stay at Royal Pacific and use the...

About 10 years ago we were at HS during a Star Wars weekend, and they had a Who Wants to be a Millionaire show going on that was Star Wars themed. This meant there were Star Wars characters spread throughout both the contestants and the audience. The theater was set up with a few jumbo screens...

Hi everyone. Thanks for all the great information. I've wanted to be a travel agent since I was in high school, but have never pursued the idea because I just didn't feel it was a very realistic dream. When I was younger, I wasn't really sure how to break into the business and was worried I'd...
