Originally posted by Mordac View PostWe'll give you some time to come up with a plausible explanation as to why you were in a haunted house with a bunch of kids. Looks like you'll probably need it...
- only saw 3 British families, football shirts, tattoos, wives with humongous backsides, you guessed, they fitted right in with the locals
- millions and absolutely millions of prams
- I have never, ever seen so many mobility scooters
- food is overpriced and crap
- rides are not all that much (driving on the Interstate is more exciting), luckily I had Fastpass so no 2 hour queues otherwise I would have left
- in the end, not really worth it...luckily I didn't have to pay
