Rastuso Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 We went last night for our first ever visit. I REALLY liked it. ANd it wasn't too crowded. NIce and cold last night too. 43 degree rides on Verbolten! I thought they did a great job making each section have a different variety of lights and different colors. I wish they would have had a deal on a set of the photo ops. THey were pricey as usual. The hot chocolate was good. My son's brisket chili was AWESOME! It was better than the GUinness chili I got, although it was still good too. I do wish Darkastle was open. It's set in a snowy castle, and the queue is kept cold in the summer. We saw the Muppets show, which was cute, and the actor doing COokie Monster was quite funny. Bert showed up, and of course things got ugly. ANd, there was an amazing babe in line for Verbolten wearing leggings and a sweater that didn't quite cover here very nice rear that I quietly enjoyed, and my son flipped out over. We watched some of the Festhaus show, but skipped the Penguin thing due to a very long line. We liked the pick a present game. My wife got an Angry Bird plush, but my son got a plush Christmas Town ornament. I also scored a Hello Kitty at Skeeball for the wife. A really great event. It sure blew away anything that Houston ever had to offer for Christmas. -RO Sesame Street Christmas The hill to Nessie Obligatory shot of Pompeii Candy Cane teacups The reason for the season Festhaus had a great light show going on. Santa's Workshop. You could look through the window to watch kid's talk to Santa. Very well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 They've been improving this event each year--the food offerings are good, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
larrygator Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) They have Hello Kitty merchandise as prizes for Skeeball? Hope they keep them for next season. It has been 4 years since they had good prizes, Domos. Edited December 15, 2012 by larrygator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intimidator305 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Holiday Hills seems like it would by far be my favorite area of the park now... I may have to head over there to check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
