You'll love it down there at that time of year. My parents are an hour away

Christmas in a t-shirt on the patio.

| Chris, the surprise was that Brian Anthony was one of my customers and 50 feet
from your office. He was supposed to walk into your office, say Coreman hopes
you feel better, and leave 8^)
|
371.18 | and they even have Roller Coasters! :) | POOKY::OROURKE | MyOtherVehicleIsABroom | Wed Nov 08 1995 15:06 | 7 |

Hey Chris...
Be sure to go to Busch Gardens in Tampa while there! It was my
favorite park out of all of them!

| Sorry to have gotten your hopes up for more. I will be shipping him some stuff
if you need something from over here. you got an NTSC VCR?? Might be able to
think of SOMETHING to tape...We do get your reruns of Benny Hill as well...
> I would like to spend a day in Busch! :))))))

Hi CM!
Well...I don't have all the stats memorized....I only have a few brain
cells so I have to conserve but I do know where to go for my coaster
facts!
P.S. Chris...seriously. It is a GREAT park! They have a really nice
zoo area that you go thru three different ways, beautiful flowers like
orchids growing out of these rock formations with waterfalls, fun
rides, very nice staff (without being sickenly fake like at Disney),
REASONABLY priced food (a real rarity in Florida!) that tastes good.
They also have BEAUTIFUL merchandise...like wood carvings, etc...tons
of African themed stuff. They just really pay attention to all the
detail like in the Moroccan (sp?) bazarre area, etc.

| Say pretty please...
I haven't been recording them but I'll try for the reruns this weekend and pop
one in the box if it's alright with Brian. You can bump him a few quid towards
postage. You would have LOVED this weeks episode with Dax and her previous
mate...Might catch it on saturday for you and then the new ones on sunday and
monday. I can then fill the rest with Mr Bean! or CSPAN of our Congress 8^) 8^)
I take it NTSC is ok?

/jen, yeah I am really looking forward to Busch Gardens. I've heard
lots about it! Thanks for the tip.
Some day I would like to visit Six Flags, heard that was a good park
too.

| I knew you'd have all the FAQ sites somewhere 8^)
It is a nice park. Trouble is there so many in that area and each one is a day
at least. There's a monastary with a "singing" or "whistling" tower that had a
significant impact on me as a teenager. Hours of poetry was written about that
experience. It's surrounded by beautiful gardens as well but the name escapes
me.

371.30 | The best place | SHRCTR::SIGEL | Flock of Sigels | Wed Nov 08 1995 19:50 | 24 |
| This is the best time to go to Florida, especially if you want to go to
Walt Disney World. The place is empty (since holidays are now the main
focus). I went the week after Thanksgiving a few years ago and we got
on all the attractions in record time.
Word of advice, bring WARM clothes (long sleeve shirts, sweater, jeans
etc) I had on a turtleneck and jacket walking around Disney, it was
cold, like high sixties, low seventies. I seen a lot of people walking
around in shorts and I know they were uncomfortable.
Dont Miss: If you have time to spare, go to Palm Beach. The houses and
mansions will blow you away. Worth Avenue in Palm Beach is the
equivelent of Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills CA. Lots of ritzy shops like
Tiffany, Gucci and some spectacular cafes and antique shops. Dont miss
driving by the overwhelming large hotel called the Breakers. This hotel
is where all the weathiest people and royalty stay. Really gorgous, it
is like a palace. It was built in the early 1920's and all the high
society familys like the Vanderbilts , Rockefellers, and Astors stayed.
Is there room for me ;-)???
Have fun!

I'd settle for those temps right about now.
Yes, bring warmer clothes with you but don't skip the shorts
> Dont Miss: <blah blah blah>
Yeah, I was down there for a conference and will admit that it blew me away.
There's some serious money involved in some of those people. Try not to drool
if you go.
> Is there room for me ;-)???
After the session we've had today, you'd consider going? 8^)

RE: .29
Hi Rick!
I'm so glad that Tracie still has fond memories of Six Flags! We had
such a good time...listening to her say "oh my god" about 10,000 times
while we were on the GASM coaster!
Too bad you didn't make the trip but the offer still stands! I +HAVE+
to go back there sometime cuz they've added a new coaster and also
a new free fall I believe!
I was just looking at the pictures from this summer at Alton and
Blackpool....such fun with Tracie and Rick and Bliss and Woz! :)

| Dont miss Disney coasters when you go there, they are great!!! Space
Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain Rail Road (more my speed ;-)
I agree Palm Beach is Money-O-rama:-) The Breakers hotel is a must
see... just go in and walk around the lobby, it will take your breath
away:-)
