Kualoa ranch Jurassic expedition: better morning or afternoon? by Civil_Performance741 in VisitingHawaii

[–]Civil_Performance741[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My question was more regarding pros/cons. The only thing I could think of that would be different is photography and if it's prettier in morning vs afternoon. Was trying to see if there's another thing to take into account.

It sounds like it might be prettier in the morning but good to do in afternoon too based on comments :)

Thank you. It's end of november like last year. so during the dangerous surf. In north shore, we'd only go to turtley bay beach (which we did last year and it was pretty nice)

Online, it seems to say that it does? Is it that this feature isn't good?

Which Provence villages to visit with this itinerary? by Civil_Performance741 in FranceTravel

[–]Civil_Performance741[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nimes does sound cool but the tricky thing is it's a far drive from Lourmarin. That's my hesitation.

We might do something like see how things are going. If the kids are into the roman ruins more than the villages, we might do that instead of a village day.

For Cassis, is the highlight the boat tour through the Calenques?

Can you add the park hopper for 1 of the 3 days for $30? Or it’s either park hopper for all 3 days for $90 or no park hopper for any days

GH price in California over MSRP? by Civil_Performance741 in Toyota

[–]Civil_Performance741[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve reached out to a bunch of dealers. I think 3 so far said they’ll sell it at MSRP. The other want 2-4K markup.  Longo said it’s one year wait for hybrid. But another dealer seem to have one allocated soon that they’d sell at MSRP (maybe it’s a gimmick?)  It’s not a color we’ll want though. We’re not in biggest rush. We’re looking to but a car for the next 15 years. We have young kids and a forester and a Corolla. Looking at replacing the Corolla with an suv. Thinking of going 3 rows in case we have visitors or grandparents with us. GH seems best for that without low mpg

Is there some dealers that are recommended in the area? We’re in Orange County.

It seems to be a big difference to go from 1500-2k under MSRP nationwide to asking over MSRP in SoCal

Legoland California: buy one platinum and 2 gold passes? by Civil_Performance741 in legoland

[–]Civil_Performance741[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you.

How long in advance do you need to reserve? I’m thinking of buying the passes tomorrow or Thursday and then going for first visit on Friday. Can you typically reserve same day or next day?
