I saw that about the Gaylord Texan's upcoming water park area--looks pretty neat. Great Wolf will still have the appeal of being an indoor water park, which sounds great for off-season and for my pale kids who burn despite lots of sunscreen.My Wife and I stayed at the Gaylord Texan the 16th - 18th. They were advertising a new water park that will open on their property next year. IIRC it will encompass ~11 acres and have many of the same features of the Great Wolf.
On a side note: We returned to the Gaylord after attending the fair. While in route we were stopped at an intersection near the fair and my condition went to red (long story). I un-tucked my shirt and put the shirt tail inside the hand grip for easier access. Upon returning to the Gaylord, the valet opened my truck door and calmly stated, "you might want to fix your shirt". I did and we both laughed!
That's pretty funny regarding your faux pas. The service there was pretty good--good group of valets. They took good care of my car and I think they left it out front the entire time as we never had to wait. Always tip your valet well, folks (assuming you love your car).
