KDFAN

It really depends, I would say Blizzard Beach because it is larger and has better slides, I cant really comment on Typhoon Lagoon as I have not been there, but the deciding factor for me was deffinatly Summit Plumet.

I was talking about parking, we had one of those buy one day get 13 days free tickets. Talk about a bargain, 14 days at BGTB and SW for less than one day at Magic Kingdom

I think it would do well at SFA, it would probally open in time for the big year for SFA>

Vekoma always makes such bulky restraints

Day 1 Headed to Dulles airport and got on a Jet Blue flight to FL, only 26 people on a plane for 136! Bit of turbulence but a great flight, arrived in Orlando and headed to the Villa we own (PM if intrested in renting). After that headed to Chillies for dinner. Day 2 Didn't really do anything, headed down to Old Town and that was about it. Day 3 Headed to Universal Orlando, it was so quite that we managed to both parks completly in one day. Managed to get on HRRR front row in nunder 60 mins, it's a great ride, really worth all the wait. I found it to be fairly smooth. They still aren't using the moving walkways to load, I did find when you came back in the station and the lapbars suddenly tighting, ugh that wasnt comfy. Ofther than that no waits at all, and boy did I forget that Universal really is bad with their queues taking longer to walk through when empty than the ride. Day 4 Headed to SeaWorld today and had a great time, I really enjoyed Manta and must say that if they replace BBW with a ride like Manta it will certainly help heel the disfaction I have with the park. Kraken and Journey to Atlantis were also both great rides, the whole park was spotless not a piece of trash anywhere. I felt a bit ripped of having to pay for the Skytower. Went to watch the fireworks from the Atlantis Bayside Stadium and I must compliment AB on a great fireworks show. Day 5 Took it easy on this day, I went to Bonanza Golf in the morning and got an on par game. In the evening I headed back to Old Town and went on the Windstorm rollercoaster It was a great ride and packed a big punch in a very small layout. I also rode the Slignshot, the initial punch of the liftoff was amazing, I think it went about 300 feet in the air, I also got a free T-Shirt. A great upcharge attraction. Day 6 Today we went down to BGT, while I do prefer the virginian Busch Gardens I like this one a lot. Sheikra was great, I actually rank it higher than Griffion. Rode all the rides, Kumba which is by far by fav Beemer was my 50th coaster not bad for only rididing coaster for 3 years. Rode Montu which was slightly beeter than Alpenghist. The other rides were all random rides by various manufacturers. I found Scorpian to be very painful in the front row. I deff. reccomend if in Orlando you visit this park. Day 7 Today marked by first ever visit to a waterpark, and boy did I start with a bang. Went to Disney's Blizzard Beach, the themeing was incredible, having the chairlift was also a great idea. I rode Summit Plumet first thing in the morning and boy did you go down the 120ft fast. I actually found it a bit rough at the bottom, but it didn't batter cause of the drop. See image below. I also like the Slush Gusher with the almost airtime hills it would have to be my favorite water ride. I found the Proslide Mammoth a bit dull compared to KDs. Would reccomend this park to anyone. Going Down.... Day 8 Headed to Universal again another quite day. Read info for the other day if intrested. Day 9 Decided to take a late start today. Started out going to Bonanza golf and played the other course for $4. I got 2 whole in ones. Then went back to villa and planned the rest of the day. Decided to head out to Olive Garden yummy, near Seaworld. Then went to Seaworld paid are $12 to park with the park closing in 2hours, then headed in, got a ride on Manta and all other main rides. Then went to Sealions Tonight, this is much better than the daytime show. Then we headed over to Kraken and Manta and rode those again and managed to get to Shamu Rocks just in time, sitting in the seat closest to Bayside Stadium so to get a good seat for the fireworks another great day, and a great qay to end a holiday. Day 10 Drove to MCO airport and got on our Jetblue flight back to Dulles in DC. If anybody has any questions ask away. Also I highly reccomed the last week of Aug and first week of September very quite and a great time to go.

I'm not the only person whos #1 park is EPCOT, EPCOT is the best with Soarin, test track, and likes and Illuminations my favorite firworks

I've heard a rumor that InBev wanted to keep it put in the document from Arrow when they bought the ride it said it should run for 25years

They are extremely difficult to get out of, they seem to practically trap you in, and thinking of water rides with restraints, Journey to Atlantis, Jurrasic Park both have Lapbar type things.

At least the lock ers are free, that will engourage more people to use them Take that Robb, I got pass word filter

Well at least I have a chance to ride, shame its gonna take them 4 weeks to open for ever.

It looks like a Proslide Rocket to be as it is launched by LIMS and Proslide is the only company that does that.

Heres another shot a bit closer Desktop FOlders

SPOLIER Read all folders carefully My desktop, showing off a Mark Monorail at Disneyland

Knowing what happened to Two Face at SFA in a similiar situation I think this could coaster could be leaving, if the park stays around

I'll tell you on Monday when I finally ride it for the first time

Busch Gardens Williamsburg - 8/15 Six Flags Great Adventure - 8/16 Sea World - 8/28 Busch Gardens Africa - 8/29 Universal's IOA- 8/30 Universal Studios - 8/31 Wet n' Wild - 9/1 Aquatica - 9/2 Kings Dominion - 9/10 Maybe a bit overboard, ah well

Do you ask the parks if you can stick the thing in their park or do you just do it

Be sure to sign the petition, its always worth trying www.petitionspot.com/petitions/BBWSave

For some odd reason you have to be 14 to go up the Griffion Lift, how odd when you pay adult ticket price before that, Ah well just have to wait a year.

I must say I am often effected badly by cigarette smoke, at my home park Kings Dominion, people will sometime light up in the queue for Volcano (if you've been you know it's only a corridor inside the mountain. While I respects people's want to spoke I would like to see a park try a trail run and not allow smoking in the entire park for a month or so, and see if it works or effects attendance. And if it effects them build smoking areas away from the paths and restrooms (KD has its smoking areas by the restrooms so whenever you use the restroom and come out you get blasted by cigarette smoke.

This coaster just gets more and more unqiue and long as it has lots of I'm happy.
