No way! You ride with Robb in the double seats, I'm riding alone!!!!

Oh, we're going to have so much fun!!! Orlando Premium Outlets here we come!!!! On a more serious note, gas prices have been flucuating way too much to give you an accurate price now. In Florida Citgo is a real brand that is usually pretty cheap. Lights go Green (Go), Yellow (try to stop), Red (stop), the other way they just switch from red to green. For the turnpikes you're going to need about $2 for the big one going back and forth to Wild Adventures, then have at least $5 in quarters. You basically have to use them for some of your routes, there is no other good alternative. Don't bother with the 'sunpass' it has a fee to get one and you won't get your monies worth in just 2 weeks. Florida traffic isn't terrible, but I would avoid the normal rush hours of 7 - 9am and 4 - 6pm if you can. Having never driven in the states, let alone Florida, probably the biggest advise you should get is to be careful of the weather. 'Florida Rain' shoudn't be in full force when you're out there but you should not drive in it. I have seen way too many accidents by tourists driving in it on I-4. It will seriously make it so you can't see anything. Just ask Derek about the Green Clouds and tornadoes we drove through to Orlando from the turnpike one time!!! Speed limits on interstates and turnpikes will be between 55 and 70mph. On local roads watch out, cause it could be as low as 15 and as high as 55! Shopping - Like I said, we'll take you to some places! Eating - Fastfood...hmmm, this is hard for me since I don't like much! But I would suggest Checkers, Taco Bell, um, stuff.... Hope this helps!

FYI, I didn't get sick on it...it just completely terrified me!!! Tiny little chains, a bar, and 60mph 200 feet up!!!!

Not a problem at all! $1 should cover the paypal fees...Thanks!

They're weird. In some markets they do seem quite major, but they have interesting rules. I know when my parents rented from them out of LAX they were told they could not bring the car into NV to go to Las Vegas, it had to remain in California!

LOL!

As long as you rent from one of the major rental agencies, yes you can. I believe that Enterprise, Payless, some of the C list ones may not let you. Just check their website or ask when you call.

I really see this as more of when BGT said they 'weren't going to build anymore thrill rides in a long time'...and then 5 years later we get Shakira! I'm sure it just means you're not going to see a big ride as often, but they will still get new big rides eventually!

And a "Stop dating your cousin" campaign... Where's Ted?!?!

Um, that was beyond terrible. I gave up eventually!

Yeah I'm also going to have say your plans are a bit ambitious, even if you were just credit whoring.

Mike's Mom!!! Just kidding, but the subject of this thread really kind of seemed inappropriate!

Yup! That's my awesome peep in the game!

Are the outdoor rides open during the winter?

If you've already been to Kennywood you should go to Hershey.

Can't wait for the photos! I still can't get over how awesome Winjas was!

Better never let Robb near this park wtih all of the food!!!

^That was an Intamin Bobsled that is now located at SFoT.

As long as they still pass out chocolate at the end it's fine with me!

LOL! Nice TR! Zagnut!!! Robb and I were always talking about foods that start with the letter Z and that's one of them! Denden, I'm going to give that a try!

I should ban you for two reasons! Not being nice to rodents, and not being able to spell HAMSTER!

^

That would be a bummer! This coaster went from the worst I've ever ridden (nearly knocking me out!!!) to a really great ride! At least it will hopefully be moved somewhere else if they do decide to get rid of it. Maybe the park finally realized they had too many launched coasters?!?!?

cough 2007 cough I don't know if it's the BEST Disney Park, but it's certainly up there!

But everything from that 'age' was terrifying and fearsome due to lack of safety stuff! Again, I'm hoping for the best, but not getting my hopes up at the same time.
