Living so close to here has been pretty cool. We are good card members and have a dining plan. You get a lot of food for the dining plan meals. We have gone 4 times already and each time we loved it. Yes, it's hot. Yes, there are long lines. Yes, parking can stink at time. However, we learned quickly to go on off times. Taste of the Carolinas was pretty neat. My husband enjoyed the food. This is going to be an every year event, it keeps my kiddies busy and tired :)
