My kids and I were virtually pulling up together youtubes of Volcano Bay on YouTube and through various Disney websites, irony. This park has had a few glitches but dang it has so many new tech things happening. (And it isn't like they are alone, Pandora has had their glitches and Dwarf still does)

The dual lazy rivers, one traditional, one more themed and actioned to simulate a white water rafting experience looks beyond awesome. The fog and mists add so much theming. Their main pooling area is huge and has that effect that Disney Hawaii has only introduced to their various parks. Their feature slides bring Orlando into the 21st century while Disney's are seeming to be failing do to age. I really look forward to visiting Volcano.

To anyone who's interested, (including @donaldtoo ) there is a NEW Xtreme Waterparks episode tonight on the Travel Channel. Unfortunately, for me, it's on at 10:00 PM, which is too late. But that's Eastern Time -- other time zones may see it earlier, so check your TV guide. (I know they'll repeat it at some point down the road.)

I heard something about this on a podcast but I hadn't seen it. It is amazingly cool and high irritating all at the same time. I'll have to keep and eye out to see how many people rent these for their little "princesses".

I laughed reading this. Then read it to my DD. Response: Sounds like she should just get the deviled eggs. She wants them.

It's actually one of the best natural sweeteners. It's packed with micronutrients and doesn't spike blood sugar as much as plain white carp. That being said moderation is key because it is an ose food after all.

A few years ago I bought a big container of no sugar "maple" syrup thinking that would be better than using regular maple syrup, then a couple days after I read an article extolling the virtues of maple syrup and all the good for you stuff that was in it (in moderation) of course. Then I thought about the artificial sweetener I had just bought to "save myself" from the evil maple syrup, and I went and threw away the bottle of fake stuff. That was the point I started thinking and did some research into artificial sweeteners and no I try to avoid them as much as possible. I will have Diet Coke occasionally, but that is usually in Disney. I figured natural was probably better. We are lucky, a friend of ours Dad taps maple trees on his property and makes maple syrup to give to friends and family and luckily we fall into that category. So free maple syrup for us!

Gotcha! Is this the first Disney/Hawaii trip without you for them?
Click to expand...
Yup. It's actually only their second vacation ever without me. They went to WDW a few years ago without me. My mom especially has never wanted to travel without her children, so until it got to the point where I was an adult, they pretty much didn't go anywhere without me, and they've never left my brother home.

I'm actually going to SC with my grandma this Friday after work to visit my aunt and go to the beach. Just for a long weekend. She's staying longer, and I'll get her on July 3. Then my parents on July 4. Lots of airport runs in my future.
