Thank you so much for making content geared for single travelers! 🥰

[@MagicalHijinx]

Most of my content is because I film alone most of the time!

[@KinnardRoyale]

🙌🏾👏🏾🙌🏾😂😂😂Not the Mrs. Roper Era! I’m dying. Well played.

[@MagicalHijinx]

She’s an icon

[@kayel4487]

Thank you for mentioning the water shoes option! I am not a barefoot person!

[@MagicalHijinx]

I’d definitely wear water shoes next time!

[@brooklynolamel]

Thank you for your super informative review. Very much appreciated your experience.

[@MagicalHijinx]

Glad it was helpful!

[@glenpreece]

OMG I was dying when you went in the rapids!!! Great video. I so wanna try that. Hopefully, the weather allows it in November

[@MagicalHijinx]

It’s still warm then just not like 100 degrees, which means it won’t be as crowded!

[@pattieb8214]

I think this is my favorite video you have ever made. Great review and great fun.

[@MagicalHijinx]

So glad you enjoyed!

[@chengmoua8155]

LOL! Finally someone who understands the struggle I went through with the crazy river.

[@MagicalHijinx]

Haha!! It’s a fun struggle tho!

[@darianjofficial]

this video is so unintentionally hilarious hahaha i NEED to experience this! thank you for the content! W!

[@MagicalHijinx]

So glad you enjoyed! I just posted AquaGlow at Aquatica water park - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIjIko19edlrgNksi=rlt4-Ktz8f8m-GVd

[@lizzieissy2092]

Ha haa that was hilarious. I laughed so hard at that crazy river. Omg. Coming next week to cabana bay. Might check the water park out. Lol

[@MagicalHijinx]

It’s so fun! I definitely want to go back! So glad you enjoyed my drowning 🤣

[@rb5078]

That was a lot of fun to watch. Right up until the end you had me convinced to give Volcano Bay a try despite my general disgust for public pools. And then the end bit reminded me of why I’m disgusted by public pools and I changed my mind right back!! 😂

[@MagicalHijinx]

Hahaha! But it was so fun besides that 🤣

[@hode_jzm]

Great video! Thanks for doing solo vids, it encourages people that wants to enjoy the parks wether they have company or not.Definitely going solo to VB on my next visit, but since I have already been there with people I think I'm skipping sharing floats with strangers 😂 Fearless river I think I did 3 laps last time..it was so funny trying to survive there but definitelly recommend water shoes to avoid hitting the river walls and bruising your feet. That River is so Universal-style

[@MagicalHijinx]

Yes when I go back I’m definitely breaking out those old water shoes!

[@k0mic2]

i love your video so much of Volcano Bay! Very entertaining and you seem like a fun person to go to water parks with😊! I have a question, do they allow you to go on rides more than once, like will they allow you to go on the same ride a second time if you want?

[@MagicalHijinx]

As long as you wait on the line or use your tapu tapu to virtually wait, you can go on as many times as you want!

[@Sunny-xc9kv]

I was laughing so hard at you in the fearless river 😂 That solidified my decision to never go in there.

[@MagicalHijinx]

You should do it once 🤣

[@MoviemaniaNick]

Looked like a fun experience. lol

[@MagicalHijinx]

So fun!

[@yanjack10]

Love the vid very informative. It will be my first time visiting this park in a few months, so I am gathering as much info as I can. With the regular tickets are you still able to ride all the rides in the park? Also can it be more than once or do you have to buy one of the express passes to do so? Just trying to understand the express passes, so any info would be great:)

[@MagicalHijinx]

You can ride every ride with a park ticket and you can ride them as many times as you want. The express pass just gets you to skip the line and you can only do that one time.

[@yanjack10]

@@MagicalHijinx Thank you!

[@lewisround9687]

ill be in the parks 7th october until the 21st and im travelling solo! This video helped so much! If anyone is in the parks around the same time and wants to tackle some days together or grab some drinks please hmu!

[@MagicalHijinx]

So glad it was helpful!

[@KateS1980]

As someone with PTSD and social anxiety, I can assure y’all that every experience in public is solo-friendly!

[@PeterSallada]

I would make a comment about George Costanza and solo-friendly, but I want to keep it PG on here🤣

[@MagicalHijinx]

Well some water parks won’t pair you up on those rides that require more than one person. It’s so bizarre!

[@cassiemccauley]

I love thrill rides and and amusement parks but during that long wait in line which usually takes place on high stairs, my anxiety tells me I do not like them and it really helps to have a friend there with me to level me out and remind me I do like it and help me to stay

[@rb5078]

There are some rides at various theme/amusement/water parks that won’t allow solo riders. Sometimes for safety reasons and sometimes for capacity reasons.

[@Fa__timaaaa]

When I tell you that I had to be CARRIED out of that River of Death! I mean I was literally picked up and carried out like Kevin Costner carried Whitney Houston in the bodyguard! Never again! 😂

[@MagicalHijinx]

I can believe it! It was so hard to get out of there!!!

[@PeterSallada]

Hey Demi! You’ve finally done Volcano Bay…you finished the story! I acknowledge you!☝🏻 Sorry😂 I’m not a fan of water parks, but for those who are, this looks like a lot of fun. That Fearless River though😳…it looks like something that should be a part of HHN😂. And $6 for a towel? That better be the best towel you would ever use in you life at that price!

[@MagicalHijinx]

I did finish the story! 🤣

[@KateS1980]

She should make friends with the pool boy to get a discount…as long as he’s not putting too much chlorine in the lazy river

[@PeterSallada]

@@KateS1980Alright, I gotta go. “To see Ramon?”😂

[@Sabrina.C.217]

I didn't like water parks as a kid and discovered last summer at this park that I still do not 😂 I am SEVERELY out of shape and almost died walking up stairs to one of the slides. I despised how the slides and coaster felt like being water boarded with water hitting you in the face. And a team member had to pull me out of the crazy river while my 13 year old niece was having the time of her life. Best part was the food 😆

[@MagicalHijinx]

It’s definitely not for everyone!

[@jessicasteiner7298]

I really want to go to Volcano Bay hoping I can ride stuff solo.

[@MagicalHijinx]

I hope you get to go soon!

[@noahman1234]

I love volcano bay solo I just get matched up with random strangers

[@MagicalHijinx]

I’ve been to water parks where they don’t allow that so it’s nice that they do!

[@noahman1234]

💀💀💀 that would be at the end 😂😂😂😂 drowning

[@MagicalHijinx]

Haha!!

[@spiritedreviewexc]

ever since watching the Titanic at age at a very inaproprate young age, Ive had a fear of drowning and people smashing against me. so that ¨lazy river downing ride thing is not fun for me...

[@MagicalHijinx]

Oof so sorry!

[@spiritedreviewexc]

@@MagicalHijinx*shrugs* if i ever go, i learn from your experiences, so i just wont go on the ¨scary¨ river. but everything else looks super fun! Like the blue slide. (and im not one for fast rides) So that´s rather weird for me that i find that ¨fun¨ it reminds me of a slide i went on in my youth, so maybe thats why i think id enjoy it. I dont like ¨strait down¨ things so maybe thats why those look ¨fun¨

[@LordLaroyalty]

Looks like you didn't stand on the sand in front of the big wave pool to wait for the drums to start playing and the waves to come on. Also, at certain times, there is a free Volcano show that also happens then. FALSE! That IS how a great lazy river is supposed to be! It is not rude! You came there to get wet and people want to get wet! They don't want something that is so boring you could go to sleep! That is why sprayers, waterfalls, misters, and sprinklers are VERY IMPORTANT for any lazy river to be truly GREAT! THAT IS RELAXING!!! So, you didn't do any of the 30 free interactive things around the park, but you were on the receiving end of one or two of them as someone got you wet. Bummer. Plus, you didn't even walk inside the volcano see any of the water stuff, statues, and didn't talk to the Fire Spirit. You missed all the best stuff that makes this park far from any normal water park!
