Sounds like you guys had an ace time Steve, hotter the better! 
I go in just over a week can't freeeek'n wait!
Glad to hear the simpsons ride is worth it, I loved the back to the future ride, and was gutted when heard they had replaced BTTF for it!
Not sure which parks we are going to do yet, booked Sea World and Sea World Aquatica, Universal, and few others no doubt!
Did you make it to Old Town?! G-Force ride is amazing, 0-120 in 2seconds, I'l be doing that again last time got a reaction time of 0.1 need to keep it up and the car cruises down there are awesome!

Are you in a period of depression now your home  I most certainly was! Florida is fantastic and makes this place out to feel crappy and small!
I was there when The Simpson's ride was being built. Hope it was good! Sounds it!

Different things on different nights at Old Town, its pretty good down there for an hour or so just for the parade lap,
Thur ---> Bikes
Fri ---> Modern Modified Cars
Sat ---> American / Classic / Muscle Cars
When I'm away, the bank holiday Monday is a stars and stripes, only red white and blue cars allowed in, so shall pop down for that one and get some pictures!
This is G-Force (Click HERE)
Compressed air, shoots the car off down a 1/4 mile strip 0-110 / 120 in 2secs
Staging lights, and measures your reaction time, so racing against the car beside you!
If you ever go back its a must, just for the sheer acceleration

When I went out the second time, I went with a suitcase inside a suitcase cause I buy so much. Everything is so much cheaper out there.

yeah next we go (which is probably gonna be same time next year) we are gonna bring extra suitcase and LOTS of cash was impressed that i had a choice of trainers and jeans. dont get that for size 13s and 36" legs
That G-Force things looks cool.
Has anyone been to one of the 6 Flags themeparks in america.. There are loads and all their rides look a bit more extreme than other parks. They have some that do 120+mph and over 400ft high..
