He looked crestfallen when he was told the answer was a firm&nbsp;no, but cheered up no end with a ride on the Vikings&#39; River Splash, which resulted in both his mum and dad getting thoroughly soaked. He thought that was very funny indeed.   <\/p>\n<p>  Maybe it&#39;s the smell of candyfloss, pizza, and hot dogs everywhere you go, but theme parks seem to make&nbsp;you extra hungry. Luckily we&#39;d brought a picnic with us to avoid the astronomical food prices, which we ate on a bench by the lake under the watchful eyes of some ducks (real ones, not Lego ones).   <\/p>\n<table border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<p>     Sadly Fairytale Brook had broken down, leaving a few unlucky passengers stranded by the Big Bad Wolf and inside Aladdin&#39;s Cave.
