Hi
Just got back to Manchester after our 2 weeks vacation. Had a read of some of the other trip reports and wanted to comment on the rain we've had - some great downpours and flooding which we've never had before - and that tornado warning was very scary.
We visited all the parks and both water parks during our visit. Was really looking forward to mission space after reading so much about it before our visit; got very excited as we stood in line given our positions before flight, although a little scared about what to expect. I loved the launch, felt fine during the thrusts, but when we started the forward movement I felt unwell. Afterwards I sat down outside the giftshop feeling very strange and dizzy, a bit sickly, but thankfully wasn't sick. This lasted for about 2 hours (didn't want my chicken strips with all the dips!). So, I don't think I'll be experiencing this on my next visit.
Fav ride is still ToT, especially with the different amount of drops each time - did it twice and got the photo with the fab 3D ToT frame.
Loved the MK "snowglobe" parade, short but fabulous, as well as the MGM studios car parade.
Did loads, too much to talk about, thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to go back.
Just a quick question before I go, anyone know what ride they're opening in 2005 in MGM near the backlot tour (shrouded in green canvas). They're talking about the 2006 Expedition Everest but didn't give any clues about this mystery.
I'll keep looking in to see what's happening and what I can hopefully expect next vacation.
