Yup, if it's nice and you have the time, you should go to Virginia Beach and visit the Oceanfront, maybe also the Virginia Aquarium. Close to where your brother lives there is also a city called Hampton, which has a cool Air&Space Museum. Newport News also has Virginia Living Museum. Nearby, Norfolk has the Virginia Zoo.

All of these places are neat to visit, just don't expect them to be particularly grand on the scale of other cities. But you should be able to find many fun things to do.

And have fun at Busch Gardens! Ride Griffon in the front row for me! :D

Difnitely go to the Virginia Aquarium. Its really a phenomenal time. Zoo is great too. Also, go down to VA beach and walk along the main street. Theres a bunch of intresting little shops and stands (can you say DIPPIN DOTS?!?!)

You're probably at the park right now, but I have to offer this. When you ride Griffon, do your best to sit in the front row, far right seat, on the edge. It is FAR scarier than any other seat on the train. Absolutely wonderful.

hey, my friend was there today! he said it was reallyyyy cold...

anyways, i went on opening day and seeing as im not willing to wait in lines (i have a seaon pass :p) all i rode was appolos chariot, 4 times in a row in 20 minutes. cant BELIEVE you got on all those in one day!

i think youll enjoy VA beach on tuesday... check out the volleyball nets for me and tell me if they're up, i havent played any pickup ball down there in forever --- they're down by the small fishing pier! and also a really great restraunt to eat at is "Waterman's". They have great food, and an outdoor area that opens up onto the boardwalk. They have all KINDS of food ranging from surf and turf, to fancy seafood, to hamburgers and hotdogs! :noob: and a good activity to try is renting one of the 2 person bikes, or 4 person trolley bikes. you can ride them either up and down the main street, or on the boardwalk. its a blast!!!

Check out one of the waits at Disneyland yesterday to get in line. When I was there yesterday I was shocked.

Guru, on the 1st picture, 1) Which side is the actual que line? The right side, with all the people, or the left side, with just the one guy? 2) What ride was the line for?

The line with one line was set up that day so people could safely get out of the fastpass distribution area. The huge mob is a mob to get in line for Space Mountain, the line's above and inside the mountain. I never knew college students liked Space' so much.

Have fun out there. I like BGE much more than BGA. If you have time see some of the historical sites. (Jamestown, Yorktown Battlefield, and Colonial Williamsburg.) They are all great and fun.
