Advantages: Great fun and gret rides
Disadvantages: Long queues and lack of dining facilities

...the park opens. If you are driving there is a car park that is free outside the park although it is on the smallish side so get there early to be certain of a space! If the weather is overcast and inclement check that the water park is open before you set off as they do not always open when the weather is bad in winter. Also check which water park is open as not all three water parks are always open in winter. Eating: Eating is a bit of a nightmare here at Typhoon Lagoon as they only have 2 cafes which are always extremely busy by lunchtime., If you can try and eat early or be prepared to queue for up to 45 minutes for your burger! They do serve alcohol (beer and wine) here but it's one drink per ID and they are very strict about this (as someone in the queue in front of me told me about 4 times in the hour I was waiting even though...

Advantages: Very powerful and great for pet hair
Disadvantages: can be a bit noisy.

.... * Personal control power so that you can choose the right amount of power for carpets, hard flooring or furnishings. * Every accessory you will need including a Turbo attachment to rmove those stubborn pet hairs - yippee!! * 7 m long cord with automatic rewind. * HEPA filtration to help allergy sufferers. So, to cut a long story short, I decided on the Typhoon 2400 watt cylinder cleaner due to the extensive features it has and its impressive 2400 watts of power. If that doesn't suck deep into my pile, nothing will!!! I placed my order and 2 days later, my Typhoon arrived. ****WHATS INCLUDED IN THE BOX**** * The main cylinder in a tasteful black and silver design in an attractive pod like shape. An on/off power button is on one side and a retractable cord button on the other. There is a variable speed control on the top... Read review

...Typhoon Lagoon is one of the three water parks held in the Disney Park area. The others ones are Blizzard Beach and River Country. I have to say though this was my favourite of the two. FOOD Around the different areas there will be somewhere for cocktails, pastries or even hot food. When I was there I went to a food stall beside the main pool which sold hotdogs, turkey legs and drinks. It wasn't very expensive and it was nice. There was nowhere to sit though, you sat on a sunbed on the beach, or chairs. The day I went here I prayed for it to be sunny, and I was very lucky it was one of the hottest days of my holiday. Anyway, you go into the entrance get changed and put your items into your locker. You then usually make your way into A-Typhoon Lagoon Surf Pool-this was the pool I spent most of my day in. When I...

...Typhoon Lagoon, the newest and largest of the water parks in Disney, is a great theme park for a family day out. Me and my family went their last year and thoroughly enjoyed it. Typhoon Lagoon has a good, well thoughtout layout and it is extreamley easy to find what your looking for. The park is set around the surf pool, which I believe has a set of waves every 90 seconds and is as big as 2 football fields. If you fancy it, you can now also surf in the surf pool for 2 hours for an extra charge when the park is closed. The first main attraction when you walk through the gates is the "Castaway Creek" lazy-river style ride which runs around the perimeter of the surf pool. It took us just under an hour to do and took us through some wonderful scenery including things like caves and rivers. You basically just relax in a rubber... Read review

...The first theme park on my trip to Orlando was Typhoon Lagoon. I had last been there in about 1992 so was interested to see it again. Typhoon Lagoon is part of the Disney family and was opened in 1989. The idea behind the park is that it was created as the result of a huge storm which caused the rapids to form and the boats to be blown there from a nearby fishing village. As with everything Disney, this is another land of make believe! LOCATION: Typhoon Lagoon is part of the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando. You can reach Disney World many ways, although we used hire car. Driving there is very simple and Walt Disney World is signposted straight off the I4 (the main road passing through Orlando). The nearest airport is Orlando International, to which many airlines fly direct from the UK. You can get shuttles from... Read review

Advantages: Looks stylish
Disadvantages: Noisy

...I had been looking around for a while for a new vacuum cleaner and at first had considered buying a Dyson. But I had read many reviews complaining about the reliability of Dyson vacuum cleaners (although you could say that about any vacuum cleaner these days). So I decided to check the market first and to ask myself what do I really need. The choice of vacuum cleaners out there is simply ridiculous. The amount of research and development and design that goes into the construction something you need to clean your carpet seems an incredible waist of human activity. In terms of style the cheaper ones look just as good as the more expensive and I realized that many of the more expensive models were aimed at people with large houses - and not what I required. I came across the Typhoon brand by accident and I'd never heard of it before... Read review
