Help/Suggestions for last minute Disney Trip
BarryH replied to JRice92's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
If you have a paper ticket from 12 years ago, then that ticket was printed way before the RFID chip in today's tickets were even thought of. What you will need to do is exchange the paper ticket for one that has the chip. To make FP+ reservations online, you will need the bar code off the ticket. I don't think the older tickets have a bar code on them, so you will have to make F+ reservations the day of your visit. However, if you are staying onsite at Disney, you are able to make advanced FP+ reservations. -
Erik & Smisty's Florida Oddventures

Yay! You made it to the Holy Land Experience! I went there in 2005 and now it seems a lot gaudier than when I visited. The inside of the whale thing reminded me of the pregnant lady walk-through in Mexico. How did the Holy Land Experience change since I visited?

My in-laws live in Jakcsonville and my brother visits them often. When my nephew and niece were younger, my brother used to take them to the Jacksonville Zoo all the time. It's neat to see what is actually inside the zoo. -

I just hope that whatever town Erik and Smisty move to, there will still be Oddventures. -

SeaWorld Orlando (SWO) Discussion Thread

^I wonder if Blackfish will be parodied in Sea Lions Tonight. With the lineup this weekend (especially Gretchen Wilson), I think we will see another Bayside Stadium. I'm sure REO Speedwagon and .38 Special would have never attracted these kinds of crowds! -

I haven't been to Fantasy of Flight in a while, but it still looks great. I should stop by to eat at the Compass Rose Restaurant again one day. Now you need to visit another attraction down the street you've passed by many times...the waterski museum! -

Hmmm...it looks like Barenaked Ladies is set to perform at Universal's Mardi Gras on February 15. If I'm not mistaken, they were set to play Sea World that day before they cancelled. I guess they had a non-refundable deposit on the LaQuinta Inn rooms. -
The "TPR Klassy Kruise" 2012 Update Thread!
BarryH replied to ernierocker's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I re-read this PTR because I was pondering going on a cruise and it's still hilarious! I can't believe how ghetto Carnival is. It seems like the only thing to do is to drink a lot. I've been looking at the other cruise PTRs. I can safely conclude that I will go on a cruise that is not operated by Carnival! -

Do you think Sea World can convince Wilson Phillips to fill a void left by a departed band? How about Hanson? Line up them has-been groups now! -

SeaWorld Orlando (SWO) Discussion Thread
BarryH replied to disneygurlz2s's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
I am tempted to ask the people who are protesting Sea World...have they ever visited the park or they going by what they see and hear from others? I will bet that the majority of protesters have never been to Sea World. Well, I haven't seen any protesters holding signs down the Central Florida Parkway or try to disrupt traffic into the park. BTW, when the circus came to town, I did see 3-4 people holding signs on the other side of the street. I couldn't read the signs since the text was too small. -

I think the "Blackfish" producers need to go to Marineland at Canada. With all the reports I've been hearing about sad-looking aninals and habitats that need fixing up, I think they would have a field day. I've been hearing things about Sea World abusing animals for years. So does Sea World abuse their animals? Let me share you a story...years ago, I took a behind-the-scenes tour of "Saving a Species." We got to see the backstage area where the park rescues and cares for injured animals. During the tour, we passed by a dolphin pool. When we weren't near the pool. the dolphins just swam around and chilled out. When we walked next to the pool, the dolphins suddently became lively. They were jumping out of the water near us and became really active. When we left the area, the dolphins went back to swimming around. Now I've seen abused animals. They tend to shy away from any contact and try to get away from you. Maybe the dolphins were hungry and looking for fish, but I think they were 100% well-cared for and pampered. -
I rode SoB when it had the loop and it was horribly rough. The smoothest part was the loop! As for Gwazi, over time it go so rough that I refused to ride it. The Millenium Flyer trains helped it out a little -- at least now it's re-ridable -- but it's just not a memorable ride. It's nothing I would ride over and over again in one day. I never rode SoB when they took out the loop, but I think Gwazi is a big fail. I won't shed a tear when Gwazi is torn down.

I went to Silver Springs many years ago. Not much has really changed. -
Alrighty then...is Adam (or you) a die-hard "Star Wars" fan? Take this short quiz to find out! 1.) What is the name of Chewbacca's home planet? 2.) What was Luke's callsign in Episode IV? 3.) What was the name of Luke's co-pilot in Episode V? 4.) Where is a woman's G-spot? Honestly, I was distrubed and intrigued at the photos at the same time. I am set to geek out at Star Wars Weekends in a few weeks.
