    • actually thought they resurrected that this past Thurs. . the whole train station reeked of Horses. (turned out they had freshly manured the flower-beds). it was a shame, that Boss was down the day I was there - they were trying, but both trains on brake run the whole time.   And had the worst ride I've ever had on any Justice League (only the "Barrel" effect working, and the car didn't STOP in front of any screens - just kept moving.   we told the op she needed to call maintenance for a hard reboot. otherwise, Eagle and Thunder were both running amazing. . and the best coaster ride of the day was Mine Train !  (shocked me too, but I think the rainy weather made the ride that much faster). the new coaster is not much, but loved the theming, and Joker looks great over there.
    • After a great first day aboard, it was time for our first day at sea... A leisurely opportunity to enjoy more of the ship's venues, food and fun! It's never a bad day when your morning starts at Marceline Market! How could you go wrong with a breakfast like this? A fun piece of art found near the entrance of Hero Zone aboard the Disney Treasure. The Rose acts both as its own venue as well as the pre-show lounge for Palo Steakhouse and Enchante.  It is inspired by the live action version of Beauty and the Beast. And the lounge offers a fantastic view! Today was a great day to enjoy the ship's many pools.  I love capturing a variation of this funnel photo with each Disney Cruise I take. Mickey’s Smokestack Barbecue at Mickey & Friends Festival of Foods is one of my go-to places for quick and tasty food. Any chance to meet Stitch is one that I'm going to take! That night we had dinner in 1923, home to some of my favorite dishes, like this fantastic Hyperion Four-Cheese Tri-Color Tortelloni.  The Kingswell Duck Confit Pastilla is another favorite of ours we repeat every time we can. The Alameda Porcini Spiced Ahi Tuna is always a refreshing choice, and the black sesame brittle is a unique accompaniment I love. The Flourless Orange Almond Cake was a great dessert option. But the Burbank Blueberry-Lemon Bavarian Cream takes the cake! Yes, I went back to Haunted Mansion Parlor. And yes, I sat in the chair! I might have ordered this piece of art from Art of Disney On Demand onboard... I might have.  Next up was another new lounge for me, the Skipper Society.  Inspired by the Jungle Cruise and its associated lore, I was in heaven taking in all of the detail found within. The menu is also quite nifty... Another interactive tablet menu... Some unique choices on tap... And they have waffles! And for the Trader Sam's fans in the house. A Typhoon Lagoon connection via S.E.A.! A "Soaring: Fantastic Flight" (Tokyo DisneySea) reference via S.E.A.! You can bet this skipper boat tiki bowl made its way home with me! Awesome details on the bar back! Neat tap too! A telegram from Walt himself! Disneyland fans may recognize this copy of The Daily Gnus which was given out as a part of the short-lived Adventureland Trading Company game. Love it. Hi Donald! Disney Seas the Adventure was our first show in the Walt Disney Theatre and a great way to kick off the cruise's main stage entertainment. I love the interior of the theater. Never a bad time to enjoy Funnelvision onboard... Did I go back to Haunted Mansion Parlor again at the end of the night?  Sure did! There are tons of hidden details throughout the Parlor... You simply have to look closely. Deadpool & Wolverine was playing onboard in the ship's movie theaters during our sailing. I adore this view. Love it! Our second towel animal of the cruise, marking the end of another day...
    • I will go first week of July!  Vekoma, despite negative opinions from enthusiasts especially in the 90's and early 2000's have always had a special place in my heart because of their innovative side!  I was at Paramount Great America in 1999 when they were testing Stealth, the first Flying Dutchman model to open in 2000, and was mesmerized by it.
    • At first I actually thought he was serious, that was before I realized he was being funny. BTW, here are some more pics of the track credited to JB Thrills. Notice the 10 across bolts on the track pieces! This is wider track than Wrath Of Rakshasa's 6 across. Most likely 8-10 across seating!
    • That's some pretty forceful sarcasm that you didn't pick up on.
    • Seems it's already been replaced and test trains have been going around. 
    • How can you tell that before construction has even begun. These are only the first few track pieces, there's a whole lot more on the way. And we don't even know the full extent of the layout yet! It will likely top speeds of 90mph+, probably a more forceful ride than Yukon, or Wrath.
    • It is a shame.  But unfortunately we haven't seen the end of SF closing parks to sell the land for housing.  I'm glad I have experienced the early 2000's when the amusement industry was at its peak.  Now it is saturated, there is less competition, and people in general have lost interest in amusement rides compared to 10-20 years ago.  Times change.  I am planning to visit SFA one more time this summer and hope they find a spare lift motor for the last surviving Flying Dutchman coaster!
    • Neither does the relatively small 5 story building that will house this new ride.
    • A lot of the areas look really charming. What a shame. Thanks for posting.
    • "Unwind" and "Soak up thrill" were used in the same sentence. 
    • So, Cedar Point is getting a family boomerang next year?
