    Summit Plummits, amazing, but it was sore on my back. The ski lift thing i thought was cool, you dont normally get to go on one of them in your swim suit. I will be going to Typhoon lagoon next year!

    summit plummit is a bit of a sore ride!!! i was well nervous at the top, i'm not normally scared of heights. it's well worth doing the ride though just for the view, you can see the hotels and the tree of life and other sites all at once, it's awesome. At typhoon lagoon there is some mini summit plummits, much more gentle and calming!!!

    I don't do Summit Plummit. I went on the one next to it and it hurt my back far too much. Plus I'm not keep on throwing myself off of things...I'll stick with the lazy river thanks! hehe. The ones in Typhoon Lagoon I used to do...but now they're enclosed I don't like it...enclosed water flumes give me a horrible sense of clostraphobia which I don't normally have! I just keep thinking I'm going to get stuck in them :-\

    I need to try out Typhoon Lagoon. We didnt have time to go last year. Anno the view is amazing. I was in an enclosed flume which i hated, and it was dark aswell, i was very scared.

    ...wasn't the black hole at Wet n Wild was it? thats a water tube ride in the dark. it's fun though, there's twinkly lights all around you. The summit plummit didn't hurt my back at all. Just nearly got friction burns from the water on my legs, if that's even possible :D

    Haha! That's another reason I don't go on Summit Plummit... bikini up the bum is not the greatest fashion sense.

    Haha! I can't go on Summit Plummit - I'm too scared because it isn't like a roller coaster where there is brakes...once you're started....who knows what could happen?

    :D it has quite a long landing strip on it. It's only the kiddie water rides which have ever left me injured, it's because the bottom of them is that kind of jagged type concrete which is anti-slip.

    lol the irony...anti slip causes you injury.

    its why i wont wear bikinis at teh water parks...i nearly lost mine just jumping into the pool at all star music!!!!

    Its one of the things i love about disney, you can wear whatever you want and no one bats an eyelid about what you look like. last holiday i saw people wearing shell suits and cycle shorts. it was like a time warp but it was awesome to see people feeling comfortable.

    it's true, comfort and safety first at disney world!!!

    something I didn't realise.....you can use your fastpass at any time during the day you get it. I thought you could only use it in the window it tells you. I've ended up not using lots of mine for that reason lol. That's awesome!
     
  18. They are becoming more strict on that now though and not always letting people in as they are not technically valid. Just before I left they had just put up a sign saying that you shouldn't really accept them.

    Are you sure?
    I really don't think so.

    Yeah, they can get really strict on fastpasses...letting fastpasses in that are expired really messes up the system...and then sometimes they end up waiting longer than standby! We had that loads of times at the Jungle. The only ones you can use anytime you want are the re-admission tickets.
