Brains 2 #376 July 9, 2007 Quote how far of a ride is it from spaceland to Schlitterbahn? Four hours to the original one Don't know how far it is to the one in Galveston though. Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
turtlespeed 220 #377 July 9, 2007 Quote im thinking im gonna be in 90+ degree weather all week..and i may want to venture off for a day and see some of texas..lol plus i saw schlitterbahn on some tv show and they said it was the best water park in the usa There are a LOT of little kids running around there - and I'm not talking about the adult ones that jump outta planes. There is a pond at the DZ if you want to swim.There might be a slip and slide too.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,440 #379 July 9, 2007 The Schlitterbahn in Galveston is only about an hour away. Rosharon, like many DZ downs, has nothing but a feed store and a gas-station-with-quickie-mart. But there are the fleshpots of Alvin and Angleton only minuts away . If the weather sucks, people will be heading off to other stuff. Wendy W.

Yeah Pisserbahn is in New Braunfels - Just north of San Antonio and South of Austin - we could get him to drop by and jump at San Marcos if you want.I'm not usually into the whole 3-way thing, but you got me a little excited with that. - Skymama BTR #1 / OTB^5 Official #2 / Hellfish #408 / VSCR #108/Tortuga/Orfun Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waltappel 1 #384 July 9, 2007 Hey, I tried to register online a few minutes ago and got a message that online registration is closed. What's up with that? Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,440 #385 July 9, 2007 Online was until last Friday. But you can still register in person at Skyfest. At least that's how I remember it, and search is giving me some weirdness right now.
