Disney Rocks, (S)Carowinds sucks...'nuff said.

So I'm back...for like a week now. Disney World was absolutely awesome. Laura had a great time for her first trip down there. I love the friendly nature of all of the employees cast members. They are so organized - you walk up to ride something, and someone is there to make sure that there are no empty seats on the ride, making everything run much faster. When we got to stay in the park after hours because we were staying at a Disney Resort, they gave us wristbands.

That really stood in stark contrast to (S)Carowinds. We went into Carowinds at about 5:30pm and had our passes made. Then they kicked everybody out of the park, and didn't let the people with Scarowinds tickets back in until after 7pm. The whole time was just a bunch of hurry up and wait, with Laura getting sick from all of the people smoking around her. The fog was so thick that we couldn't breath, much less see. That made us both sick. The "scary" attractions were boring, so we attempted to ride Drop Zone. 3 times people couldn't follow directions and get on the appropriate car, so they just kept breaking in front of us. Nobody was there to direct people. When we finally got on, the guy came around to make sure the chest harness was tight (and it was already a little too tight on me). He push on Laura as hard as he could to make it tighter - crushing her chest - then push on mine to where it crushed my, um, private area and chest. I'm already claustrophobic, and not being able to move at all didn't help. I was so pissed...

anyway, that's my rant for the day...I need to scurry on over to Civil War History! :-D

Your link to upgrade to Firefox 2 takes me to a Firefox 1.5 page. Is this all fake?!? :)

Sorry that Scarowinds sucked, and sorry that I didn't come. And sorry that I didn't call. And sorry again that I didn't call again last night. Sorry.
