her Make a Wish Trip dates today!!!

We are going to Disney on February 27th-March 4th!!

I'm so excited. We get 3 days park hopper passes to Disney, 2 days to Universal & 1 day to Sea World. A Limo will be picking us up and we get an money to cover lunch & dinner too, we can save that money by eating at Give Kids the World, which is where we'll be staying.

As well as a rental car, they will provide car seats for the kids and a limo will pick us up to take us to the Airport and bring us home.

[nesser1981]

Thank you guys all so much! Yes, Keira is going nuts, we're going to do a Meal at Cinderella's Royal Table and she can't believe we get to eat at Cinderella's castle.


Anyone have any good information on what we should do at Universal/Islands of Adventure & Seaworld? I've never been to those parks. Cooper will be turning 4 & Keira will be 6.

IOA is awesome. Are you going to Universal Studios as well? Since your kids are little they will probably like Dr. Seuss' area at IOA. You can meet Cat in the Hat, Thing 1 & 2, the Grinch, the guy from Green eggs and Ham...a few other Seuss characters as well. Also you can meet Wolverine, Spiderman, Storm and some of the other X-men. They ride out on four-wheelers. It is pretty cool. My son loved it. Then there is the Harry Potter stuff at IOA. My favorite rides at IOA are The Hulk, Dueling Dragons (which I think is called something else now), and Spiderman. At Universal you get to meet the Rugrats, Shrek & Fiona, Barney, Scooby & Shaggy. One of the rides at Universal is closing permanently soon. I do not remember when though. You may be here in time to do Bud, Beer & BBQ at Sea World as well. (Trace Adkins is coming just before you get here on Feb. 18th.) It is a big festival with musicians, beer tasting for adults & BBQ on Saturday & Sunday in Feb. & March. It sounds like its more for adults but there is still lots of fun for kids too. At Sea World you want to see the Shamu show of course, then there is the sea lion show. Clyde & something I think it is called. Pets Ahoy is awesome if they still do it. Youll want to go to Polar Express. If you are not motion sensitive go on the moving ride (it is just a simulator so you just move a little). Shark Encounter is pretty cool too as is the penguin encounter. Those are just walk through things so they are pretty quick. Then you have the sting ray tank and dolphin tank where you can feed/pet them. I know there is more I am missing. Also Journey to Atlantis is fun. (Bring a poncho unless you want to be wet all day and leave everything in a locker or nonider because you do get wet). Thats all I can think of right now. I cant tell you much about Disney because I have not been there recently but Sea World and IOA I know all about LOL. I need to get back to IOA since I have not seen the Harry Potter area yet. I dont know if you like coasters or not but if you do make sure to ride Manta at Sea World. It is by far the coolest roller coaster I have ever ridden

That's awesome! I love Make a Wish.

[Julie Billingsley]

that is awesome Vanessa! Hope you all have a wonderful time!

[mlrw70]

That is so great Vanessa!

[nesser1981]

That all sounds great! The kids love Scooby & Shaggy! Yes, we get passes to all the cool stuff from what Keira's wish manager told me. I can tell you I'm beyond excited, we'd never be able to afford a trip this awesome.
