Gnome Posted October 20, 2006 Posted October 20, 2006 Would that happen to be the Benni Hannah's in the Hilton near or on the WDW resort?
dandaman Posted October 20, 2006 Posted October 20, 2006 Great pics so far, Soren. Whatever brief time I had to talk with you last month, I'm glad for. Have a great time at your home park (technically)!
RCfanatic Posted October 20, 2006 Posted October 20, 2006 Thanks for the nice pics, Sören! Looks like you guys are really having a good time in Orlando! And also once again a TR has proven that its humanly impossible to take a normal picture of Guy LMAO!

Then we went over to a nice restaurant (reserved for TPR) for good food! After that started our kick-@ss tour! We went to all the houses, attractions and shows without waiting time!

mcjaco Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Great photos Soren. It was great to finally meet you in person...for the second time in two weeks!
Coaster Palooza Posted October 24, 2006 Posted October 24, 2006 Hey Soren, Great pictures and a great Trip Report. It makes me wish I could have been there. We will be heading out next month though. I love Christmas time at the Florida amusement parks. I agree with your comment about Sheikra too. Front seat is a great view, but back seat has some awesome airtime. Did you try them both?
Hattuchili Posted October 25, 2006 Author Posted October 25, 2006 ^ Hey Rick, yes I have ridden Sheikra from all 3 seats and the back seat was really awesome! --Sören
