I don't quite get this. I just got put on a Carnival ship which could be in any number of terrible places!!! WTF?!?!?

Have they announced an opening day for this area/ride next year?

I would be careful posting a picture like that...it's like porn to 75% of the people on this board!!!

In October there are a lot of Halloween Events that can make the parks very crowded. Also, some of the parks are Friday - Sunday only so you may have to go on a weekend.

^No.

^That's Memorial Day weekend. Be prepared for crowds for sure. BUY FAST LANE!!!! If you stay at one of the CP owned hotels (and they have everything from cheap to expensive), you'll get in to the park early.

^And you only need to be 48" tall! This flyer needs one more proofing!

So I figure some of our Hard Rock Park / Freestyle Fail / Orlando Fall Through park experts can take a look at this new concept that seems to be moving ahead for the time being. http://www.gamenationparks.com/ I gotta be honest, I have no clue what this is about and haven't done the research but I don't really see the "World's First Experiential Video Game Theme Park & Resort" taking off in Fort Myers, Florida! They have some 'names' attached to the project and some funding, but it all seems really sketchy. http://www.gamenationparks.com/gn-team/ Anyone want to do some digging and see what you come up with? Thoughts?

More air conditioning is always a plus in Florida!

^It depends on the specific suction cup mount.

^Perhaps it's a buyout. Spring and Fall see many large companies buying out parks for a day.

^Most parks are not going to let a 14 year old come mount a gopro to their coaster train. Some parks will let you use the chest mount that you wear strapped to your body. I would start with that one.

^We will not do another Japan trip next year. To be safe, you can assume a Japan trip every other year. I can't give you a price because we have done many different Japan tours ranging from $2k to $4k plus airfare.

We're looking into doing a Bay Area Bash next year.

^^I also want that relocated, but for the selfish fact that I didn't get the credit!

Yes, you have to register and buy tickets before the event, we do NOT sell tickets the day of. The event should go on sale soon so keep an eye out!

Still snakes in my town this morning...kind of ready for them to be gone!

Dropped off for Mechanic. Is anyone close to a goal that I can help out? Remember it will end anytime from now till tomorrow afternoon.

Stay in the shade with the kid, find little indoor nooks with AC. The problem you'll run into with the 8 month old is that a lot of the buildings don't allow strollers in so if your kid is asleep you can't wheel them into the Land Pavilion or a restaurant. We like to watch Illuminations from Mexico. No one seems to know how busy next Friday will be so good luck!

^You should look at a map. Your description of where you're going is kind of funny. Are you flying or driving when you're 'curving' over to Sandusky from California?!!?

^^^It was full of eggs. There was no place for me to leave eggs.

^Sounds like a Merlin genius marketing move for the dumb chavs!

^^^Did you find out what kind of room you have?

I LOVE YOU!!!!

I've seen a couple of different articles on this and I have my skepticism... First off, I totally believe that everyone should either wait in line or use fast pass. I'm sick of every Tom, Dick, and Harry claiming their child is 'special' and can't wait in line or Grandma Esther and her wheelchair have to ride Space Mountain with 17 members of her family. The abuse of the special assistance cards is ridiculous. That being said, one line from the article mentions that 'we waited only minutes for Small World while others had to wait 2.5 hours'. I've been going to the Magic Kingdom a LONG time and I would LOVE to see proof of a 150 minute line for Small World!
