    Well I spent an hour or so writing #18 (bathroom break, tv distractions and washing dishes) so you got that one in before I read it.

    Would it be ok if I could finish out the week and then go or do I have to go now?

    I'm judging on the entire package; themeing, queue, length of ride, etc. But even if I was judging just the ride itself, I think I would still choose Everest, though Rock and Roller would come close.

    But yes, even though the little ones cannot ride it, I do LOVE EE. It is awesome (even if we could not see the Yeti because it was 101 both trips!)
