I wish they'd just include (small) drinks with a dining pass. Somedays I don't feel like carrying the bottle around or head over randomly and don't have it, so now I just order a kids meal now to wet the whistle. I get it a small drink is $5 a pop, but it's like come onnnnn... It just looks so stupid, to me. "Oh hey heres your dining pass for 2 meals and a snack all year, oh but you don't get a drink, sorry!"
... It's hard to lean one way or another as far as peoples emotions and feelings go, positive or negative, towards the park and the announcements, but I definitely do get where everyone who isn't happy is coming from. I'm thankful for all they have done, because I remember the past 10-15 years and how things were... so hellll yeah I love seeing the additions and changes made, but I do agree or see the point about there being all these renovations but no shade and stuff like that... No matter what, it just seems like they BARELY miss the mark.
I just really want to see something happen with those horrible finger scanners and improve the flow of your experience entering the park from parking to the gate! haha yaaaaaaaaa, anyway
