I kind of agree - I think along with the new coaster they could of added at least 1 new ride. But I think the new area is fine. If anything I can see the parents noticing the re-theme more than the kids. All the kids I saw seemed pretty happy. And remember, Jungala was only added a couple of years ago, which was an entirely new family area. Yeah I also do think kids really enjoy it. But Jungala is not really for them, except the play areas. You have to be 48' for Jungle Flyers and I have noticed most people are left unimpressed by that. Plus it breaks down all the time. I dunno, I just feel BGT always shoots halfway and they reach a comfort level and that is where they do NOT stay cause eventually they will lower the standards in certain attractions.

I think you're being a bit harsh in your first sentence. To me, it looks like a very nice redress of the old Land of the Dragons--and it seems much larger than the Forest of Fun in Williamsburg. The 4D flick is a good one (we have it at BGW, too). lol. Well I had some people come over to me telling me how they were kind of upset. They were expecting more new rides for their kids. Not just a re-theme of the area and another water play area. I was able to ride Air Grover today, and I really do think it is an awesome coaster for kids, and I actually enjoy the 4D movie, despite it being target to young audience, I thought it was good.

For frequent visitors with their kids I think this area is a slap in the face for them. I dunno, I think some they were expecting more. As for new visitors or for people who do not come often, this area is a delightful area for their kids. I think BGT could of added a few more new kiddie rides to offset some negative feedback. I think the area looks nice and looks pretty cool.

BGT needs to still work on theming some areas. Stanleyville and Congo both need a major face-lift. Some areas have average theming (Timbuktu, Rhino Rally, Nairobi) and the newer ones are pretty nice (Jungala, Sesame, Egypt, Morroco)

Yeah unfortunately BGT said that they had to trim the ride a bit to it being way to forceful. It used to be much faster and forceful, just not forceful enough to turn on the trims right before the batwings. Without those trims Montu is a great ride

By interact I mean, touch, see, etc. In Jambo Junction you are able to touch the flamingos and the zoo keepers can bring out some other reptiles or mammals for you to touch. Also, some zoo keepers interact with the animals and have them do tricks. (elephants, tigers, crocodiles, rhino, etc)

The park could really use more coasters.

I do agree BGT needs to Improve themings...but the animal interactions are very cool! Did you not go through Jungala? It is a very well themed area and has one of the best animals interaction. What about Edge of Africa? and Myombe Reserve? Jambo Junction? Those are other great areas to interact with animals. Its sad that you did not do the train ride, for you can really see the rest of the animals in a cool way. No shows? I think you should go back and bridge yourself the excitement between animal interaction and rides. At least you liked the coasters!

Without BBW that area looks bare and sad...very very sad

Apparently, nothing, one day they are there and the next they are gone. I guess they did their test runs already...

I recommend everyone to ride Scorpion and SheiKra first or last, since scorpion gets a big line during the day and SheiKra shut downs several times a day...

^I would love to see one...lol

Not worth all the hype for what we can see. I could be wrong, but I need to see the theming...

I thought she was a virgin

Wow it looks nice, I wonder If any other parks may get something similar.

^^^Nope

Something tells me that is going to give this ride a lot of downtime

LOL omg! That is hilarious! I have a feeling people are going to be very mad when they buy the extra dollar one and than get off with a WTF?

BGT works with magic...but I think those Markers are more for something else. I dunno really. We just have to play and see.

^ No it is a layout of a new breed. Montu and Gwazi had an affair with storm rummer and maverick and somehow we are getting a wooden launching flying coaster with 13 inversions and splashdowns. But in all seriousness, apparently from some rumors it is a path that will eventually lead to something else

www.bgtguide.com/bgt/project2011 LOTS AND LOTS OF MARKERS!

One person trying to get back with their group does not really bug me...I just let them go through, one person is not going to kill me. But if its a big group, then yeah I throw a fit

You mean that waste of a coaster in Timbuktu that was handed down from BGW. Trust me, I would take a Maverick style Cheetah themed coaster over that generic wild mouse Cheetah any day. I just had to say that. I got my Cheetah Chase credit years ago, and haven't looked back since. That is not what he is saying...He said that BGT might get a new coaster themed around a cheetah, but that it was kinda weird because BGT already has a Coaster name after a Cheetah, even thought its a wild mouse. In other words Why not theme it to some other animal

BGA has been re-tracking many sections on the ride since it when down in feb (or jan?) So I guess they did it to get it ready for the new trains. I heard they are only testing them Did anyone see the Cheetah Picture? bgtguide.com/ Some Say it may be a clue to something new www.floridathrills.net/content/attachments/1305d1267688597-jpg.html

It would be busier than normal but not too crowded.
