But I know i'll be going to these parks multiple times.
You do have the right idea, we're the first people in the park before they let any of the GP in. It's also the same in the evening, we get to stay in the park for a couple hours after the park closes.
Lets just say I own alot of shoes.
3 pairs of vans
4 pairs of pumas
1 pair of converse
2 pairs of dc
And the newest of the collection is a pair of jordons.
Toss me in there asap, as fear is not a factor for me. I've done the one in florida and found it to be easy. I don't have trouble eating anything as i'm an adventurous eater. As andrew zimmern would say, "if it looks good, eat it."
