Florida again......
2 questions this time
1) Is the KSC worth going to again? I like all that kinda stuff but last time i was '98. Has it changed much? I know the lauch pad 39a Viewing gantry was being put up. Thats it. Didnt see the Imax last time either
2) How stricts the drinking law? Misses is 4 months short of 21. How strict would the hotel be do you think?
Cheers, 4 weeks to go

so hows the cutting up going that u were doing for this holiday?
to answer question 2, i was born and raised (well dragged up) in the us, and altho it wasnt florida, you can pretty much guarantee BOTH u and her will get carded every time.
i usually go back home for a while each summer and every time i get carded (im 25). generalized rule of thumb: if u look under 30, expect to get carded everywhere.
p.s. u shouldnt be drinking anyways - it'll ruin your hard work!
oh and have fun

Cheers mate. Cutting........ got pissed off after a week. Didnt lose any cash on what i had would have nailed the 180k other wise on limited carbs.
If i where to buy drinks, would she get away drinking them without being hassled?

i'd not risk it in a bar personally as they'll just kick u out most likely. if she really wants to drink that much, buy from a liquor store and drink it in your hotel room (be aware that u could get into trouble for supplying a minor with alcohol however).

I can guarentee she won't get served for the beer. I remember bartenders in the hotel bar almost having a heart attack if a kid appoached within 10ft of a bar!
May get away in a restuarant with wine etc.
KSC...been years since I've been there, I'd like to go again to remind myself - although not sure what's happening there these days since the shuttles were grounded.

Americas laws say ID has to be show when buying alchohol at any age or so we were told, I even had to show ID for **** cause I looked under 26?!?!
As for KSC, sorry but this just bored me. I may have been spoiled by all the Disney Parks and MGN studios etc but KSC was a real let down for me.

I just got back from Florida yesterday aftrer travelling round for 2 weeks. I was asked for ID every time I got a drink except once in a hotel, even the restaurants asked me for ID. Got myself 200 **** from Wallgreens and the bloke in there checked my ID. Im happy as Larry as im 30!!
BTW not sure if the kids are still on holiday in 4 weeks time but I spent 4 days in Orlando and the parks were manic, ended up leaving MGM as it was so busy. Drove to Blizzard beach and just about to turn in when a sign says the place is shut as it is at full capacity and to go to Typhoon Lagoon instead, so drove there and just about to turn in when a guy puts a bill board up saying that TL is shut as well as it is at full capacity, never did get to go

Thought KSC was good - and yes, we got carded for buying alcohol even though we were in the adults thingy bit at Disney and had passports checked for DoB before being allowed entry!
Mad - but had passport with me all the time!
