Dreaming of Water Fun

Though the weather is NOT cooperating and we’ve had less than a handful of days over 70 degrees this Spring, I’m dreaming of warmer weather (just changed my desktop screen to a tropical island surrounded by clear blue ocean.) Yet, with a pool still not uncovered and no prospect of clear blue water in a land locked state with muddy watered lakes which I won’t allow my kids to EVER swim in (sorry, coming from NY and living 3 miles from the ocean, there’s no other body of water that compares!) there’s no chance of water fun in my near future.

But I can dream and I have my memories of last summer in Florida, visiting the ocean and my family in Orlando. I remember a couple of summers before that where we strayed from our normal Disney theme parks and decided on a water park. I think the Disney video “Beach Party” really had all of us craving to visit Blizzard Beach or Typhoon Lagoon. We opted for Blizzard Beach because it looked “cool” with the pretend snow and ski slopes. The water park was a “blast” of water fun with a small area for the little ones to enjoy the pint sized slides. I think me kids loved the activity pool best where they had to walk across floating ice bergs and they even got me to go down Mount Gushmore! I just learned Summit Plummet is one of the tallest water slides in the America. Who knew? Not me, all I knew was that it looked scary and there was no way I was going down it!

Just thinking about it makes me want to go back, but I’m not sure where we’re headed to this summer or if we’re headed anywhere. But Orlando would be a great choice with two family members living there. No hotel needed so we could spend all our money on recreation!  And after this looong winter, we might not want to see any more snow or anything that reminds us of snow so we’d probably give Typhoon Lagoon a try! I guess it wouldn’t really matter which Disney Waterparks we chose. They’d all be cool! Literally and visually. Nothing says vacation like Disney and if you plan to go to Disney in the summer (which we avoid at all cost) you’d be crazy not to make a stop at one of these water parks.

I’m sure Orlando Fun Tickets can help you save money on any of your vacation fun including getting you the lowest ticket to these water parks. I know, I know, everyone claims to have the lowest tickets in town, but I did a little digging and they’re definitely less than the admission prices! So if you do manage to get to these water parks this summer, have a fabulous time and who knows, maybe I’ll see you there!
