We are going there next month. We are a family of four, including two teenagers. We all are pretty adventurous - thinking of parasailing while we are there. Any comments from people who have been there - what to do, what NOT to do.

thanks

Definitely go para-sailing, and take the highest (altitude-wise) package they offer. Teenagers should love it, and you probably will, too.

Since you have teenagers, I would recommend the Moosejaw restaurant as a place to have one of your meals. The menu is pretty diverse, the food is better than decent and not outrageously expensive, there is a large arcade/poolroom to keep you occupied in the event you have to wait for a table (which you probably will if you go during dinner hour), and last but certainly not least, they offer all kinds of micro-brewed beer. We got a sampler platter of beers one time, which consisted of 12-15 different types of beer in 4 ounce glasses.

We will try the Thunderbird and the Moosejaw. This week, I am calling about parasailing to see how high they go - great suggestion.

Keep them coming. Thanks.
