Surprisingly, we found the food quite delicious and filling. You do also get either two glasses of water, pop or beer with you dinner. However, if you chose to get a drink from the bar, they are rather pricey! buand a

The Pirates I have heard is a really good show somewhat longer and more interactive.

Originally Posted By rtjl72 you know, after i slept on this matter for a couple of nights, i realized it couldn't possibly be on property. so much for our misinformed newspaper staff! they just don't understand the importance of being correct when speaking of dl. and sometimes of just world events either. (you probably gather i think that my local newspaper leaves a lot to be desired)>

However, between getting "princessed", buying pictures, having a couple of 'ritas in cool souvineer glasses...we spent about $150...and that doesn't count the dinner. We popped for the royalty box so we could be close to the action. It was worth it though, and I wouldn't have missed it for the world. Besides, when you're on vacation, your supposed to spend stupid amounts of money, right? Right?
