  1. One more question is there a place to buy discount tickets? When we went to Hershey I know the local grocery store sold them.
  2. Love your lights! I have the exact same feeling.
  3. Thanks for sharing your trip! People are lazy thanks for picking up!
  4. We left off with the dinner question. Before we get to that I forgot to mention on the way to play shuffle board we stopped at the horse barn. Just as we got in it started to rain. It was nice to look around. This was are first time seeing the new barn. They did a great job! Just has we are getting ready to leave the rain stopped. Now back to dinner. We had planned to grill out tonight but, that changed when my son heard that there was a Fuddruckers still open. Are local one closed down for good last year. This is a place he always enjoyed going. We gave in and that's where we went. It w
  5. We recently got back and we ended up staying at Cave Country. I would recommend it. Super clean, easy pull thru sites, nice location, very quiet. Because of covid the store and little rec area were closed. Thanks for all the input!
  6. We slept in today it is so peaceful here. The site next to us and across from us are packing up. We made another big breakfast this is what I love about camping no waiting in a crowded place and made just the way I like it. As we are getting are stuff ready for the comfort station to get ready for the day there is a little boy from the site at the beginning of loop riding his bike into are site. I would guess maybe 4 years old. He starts talking to us and rides with us has we head down. He tells us that he has to go home today. We say we are sorry and did he have fun? He says he did and it was
  7. Dinner what to do? Do we run to the store and make something, eat out or, get takeout? We are getting hungry we decide to go some where and sit on the patio and enjoy the nice night. I had heard somewhere that Millers Ale House was good. I called and asked if they had outdoor seating was told yes. We arrive my husband parks the van we have a big 12 passenger van so parking can be a bit tricky. I run in and ask the young employee at the front to be seated outside. He points and says if you find a table take it. Ok not off to a great start. I head in the direction that was so nicely pointed out
  8. No pool day. Today we are headed out. We are going to Honeymoon Island state park. We make a big breakfast and do a couple of loads of laundry first. This was somewhere we have never been. It looked really nice online and, we thought we would give it a try. Once we arrive I ask about the ferry boat over to Caladesi Island. This was also a reason we decided to go here. We thought it would be neat to take the ferry and do some exploring at another Island. Was told by the ranger that no boat today because of the riptide. We did get a map and head in. There was some construction going on so,
  9. The last ride of the night is going to be Mine Train. We make are way over and wait the 35 min posted time. After this we are done. We make are way out we walk thru the castle. We take are time and really look around. We decide to not leave the park just yet. There is a mob of people walking out and a huge line to get in the shops. We decide to take a bench down a side street by the glass shop. It is so quite here there is only 2 other people. This is the first time that I heard the singing lessons going on in one of the upstairs windows. After a bit I wander in the glass shop and look around
  10. This is very helpful!
  11. The first ride of the day is Pirates. Then Big thunder and Haunted mansion all three had a 20 min wait. We then board the Liberty Bell. While waiting to leave we see are first cavalcade. After a nice trip around and, lot's of waving we exit and plan to ride a raft over to Tom's island but it is not running. I then run into the Horseshoe restaurant to get some water while in there I have the nicest Cm help me out. After a quick break we see that the rafts are now running. We have not been over to Tom Sawyer Island in a long time my son really doesn't remember it. Let me tell you how nice
  12. After a very quiet night sleep we are off to Mk. The family one spot over was packing up to leave. We had a fast cold breakfast got ready and hopped on are bikes. We are taking the boat in. We get down there and we are the only ones it's about 8:20. I read the sign to make sure that they are still running the boats. We walk down to the end of the pier. I ask my husband to check the time on park opening. He tells me it was at 8. I thought it was 9 it's opened till 9 I guess I got it mixed up. After a few min another group shows up they have the site right across from us. We then see a boa
  13. Thank you both. Can I ask what campground your cabin was in?
  14. I think I agree with you. Once the line started back up we were really moving. They kept telling us to hurry.
  15. Hi, now that are Disney trip is in the books can start to plan next trip. We have never been to Dollywood and would like to go over Thanksgiving. From what I see the Christmas stuff they have looks really beautiful. I have a few questions and would love any other info and tips. First question is this a good time to go? Will it be really busy? Next how many days in the park 1 or 2? Good place to stay that will not break the bank? Thinking of hotels. How is the weather that time of year? We will be driving from Wisconsin so, it has to be better right? Tha
  16. I thought we missed a bunch. My son's friend kept asking him about all this stuff he had no clue what he was taking about. I thought maybe because it down so late in the day that they had to rush to get everyone in before closing? Something to look forward to next time and, now we know you can cut thru Toy story. I would of thought that would be blocked off to help keep up the illusion. It seems a little weird that one min your supposed to be the size of a toy and take a few steps and now your in sorry don't know is there a name for the city your in? Maybe a little more t
  17. Today is Monday we are headed over to HS or MGM. Up early for the 7am boarding pass no luck. We left a little later than I wanted but we are not morning people so for us it was good. The park was open till 8 tonight. No issues getting in I secretly wanted my son to get flagged again so we could tease him but, all was good. I had wanted to ride slinky dog first since we have not seen Toy story land yet. The wait time said 80 min. We will wait. We head over to rock n roll coaster. The line looks really long wait time said 45 min. We get in line it moved pretty fast just my son and I
  18. Thanks for reading! I always enjoy reading about how other peoples trips go. We never park hop I just feel it takes up so much time leaving . It was so nice walking the trails you really should do it. We left the 23rd probably drove by your site while biking. I forgot to mention that when we arrived there was a site with 7 small tents on it. They left Sunday morning. We did see the ground sprayed with numbers and stuff and a lot of those little flags around it in the loop.
  19. We stopped in here last weekend around 10:30 at night it was packed! This place is huge people had shopping carts full of stuff. My son did buy some beef jerky and drinks. Nice clean bathrooms plenty of parking which is nice.
  20. After a restful night sleep we are up early for AK. We grab a quick breakfast a couple of drinks and we are off. I'm not sure if today is the first day with no mask while walking around or if it was the day before. It was a little strange not wearing one walking around. My son got stopped for a security check and my husband and I had fun teasing him about this. We pretty much walked right in. It was great with no bag search! The crowds were very low today we rode everything somethings twice. We even watch the bird show but, no lion king I had heard that the monkeys have not bee
  21. Hi, we are back sadly! We had a reservation starting on Saturday the 15th. Are plans changed at the last min. I called on the Thursday before to see if we could get in Friday for a extra day. Was told was full and keep trying and keep checking the website. Nothing ever should up not a big deal we made it work. Saturday late morning got are site number I think it was 2029, we wanted the 1500 loop. I called and put in a site change and waited for a call back. We arrived around 2pm and went to look at that site. It was ok close to the bathhouse but right up against the road. We then went ov
  22. We are back sorry to say. I ended up calling before we went and the guy told me what the gift was. It was not a pin or a gift card. It was a lithograph of Mickey and Minnie sitting by a palm tree. We decided for us it was not worth are time. I remember about 10 years ago I watched a video from home before we left and got a 200.00 gift card. Times have changed. We also got a message while there reminding us to go. When I called the guy really was pushing that it was a limited supply and we should make a appointment before they were gone. We enjoyed the time at the fort instead.
  23. Well that would not be worth it. I will let you know if we end up doing it.
