    Thanks.

    Thanks again.

Other than that it wasn't too crowded - although we usually go in Aug, so that was what we compared it to.

    We are also going that week again this Feb.

We generally stay away from the parks that weekend and wind down before heading home. Last year was the coldest it has been since going in Feb. Son only went swimming once and then it was cold to me but you can't take a kid to a resort like that and not let them atleast try the water.

    This coming year we are going to wait until warmer weather so we can enjoy the waterpark. Hopefully we will be going April/May and again early Fall.
