If you have been to Blizzard Beach what did you like about this water park? What about the water park did you not care for (if anything)?

"It's been a while since I've been to a water park. I think I was last there almost 8 years ago, and it was a cold day for the local people. Though leaving highs in the 30s to go to Orlando with lows in the 60s is still nice. I was with my parents and went to BB by myself. The river was nice, and I loved the one with the giant tubs, where a bunch of people ride together. The only thing I have every done at Disney that I would never do again was Summit Plummet! I wasn't sure I wanted to go, but I walked up the stairs to look out. You could see them building the Tree of Life at the time which was cool. Somehow I was inline and the line went fast. It was a cold day so there were only a few people mostly from the North East and maybe Wisconsin in the Park. My problem wasn't fear, it had to do with the amount of water that went rushing over, under and though my unmentionables! When the fire department sprayed firehouses at protesters a Kent State it's shown as a horror of the 60s, yet 30 years later people pay for the same experience at Blizzard Beach and call it a fun ride! Maybe it wasn't that bad, but I do remember having a tough time walking afterwards. I'd go the BB again, but I won't do the Summit Plummet."

"We like water parks in general, but BB isn't our favorite. The sun glaring off of all that white is a bit hard on the eyes, and it seems to have more of the extreme-type slides. We prefer Typhoon Lagoon--it's got a nice mix of features. River Country was my personal favorite :(."

"I prefer BB to Typhoon Lagoon. I can't quite put my finger on why, I just know that I do. I like the kids' area at BB better, mainly because it segues into an area in which both kids and their parents can do things together. To be perfectly honest, my wife and I both preferred River Country to both BB and TL, mainly because it was so nostalgically themed. And the mini-golf at BB is a lot of fun. Last summer we played the Winter course. Last month we played the Summer course." Joey
