Make sure to check these out - other families had a somewhat better time at the park, and I'm sure that there are  tricks to achieving success that I completely missed out on.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;There are some good reviews on Trip Advisor. A lot of people suggested buying a two-day pass and spreading out the fun (and leaving once the crowds got too big), and others suggested renting a hotel room and taking the afternoon for naps, then going back in the evening when, again, there are fewer crowds.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I definitely think that our biggest roadblock to fun was going on a weekend. If I had to do it over again, I'd go on a Tuesday. I think that Tuesday's are traditionally and statistically the lower crowd days at most amusement parks. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Okay, maybe I just made that up, buy I've found it to be true. :-)</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1092448077249964547/3852433868492171774/comments/default/3014063910963024604'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1092448077249964547/3852433868492171774/comments/default/3014063910963024604'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.bleenies.com/2008/06/heat-pray-elmo.html?showComment=1213543808226#c3014063910963024604' title=''/><author><name>Jozet at Halushki</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16790825543155685363</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='00845463209382205595'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.bleenies.com/2008/06/heat-pray-elmo.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1092448077249964547.post-3852433868492171774' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1092448077249964547/posts/default/3852433868492171774' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1092448077249964547.post-5800963819853935021</id><published>2008-06-15T08:01:13.860-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-15T08:01:13.860-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Wow, this is a great review.
