Missed this while we were in Dubai! So glad to hear the good news. I already felt this coaster was pretty disorientating with the partial indoor and lighting package, I can't wait to see what it will be like fully enclosed! BTW, did they ever fully take down their megafail coaster?

I hadn't seen this since we were away...very interesting proposal. I'm also not holding my breath or anything but it could happen. Would this be one of the shortest distance relocation's from one park to another?

^I would take Heide Park over 90% of the parks in the USA. Hansa I feel is a very different park, much more a family park. I love it too, but it's in a very different category.

I think I really like the idea of making the single rider line have a higher height requirement than the normal ride. It makes it harder for terrible parents to force their small kids to try and ride alone which I've seen on several other single rider lines.

^I wouldn't be too bummed about it. The survey didn't release anything we didn't know, and from the questions they seem hell-bent on the terrible name that has already been tossed around here quite a bit. Oh, and like others have said, it REALLY needed to be proof read!!!

Typhoon at Marah Land in Oman. Poor KT was in tears after one op told her she could ride and then another said no. She refused to leave the platform! We've created a monster!

Just wanted to post a really quick few thoughts on our most recent cruise. Brilliance of the Seas 12 Night Dubai/India/Oman Cruise This was the most 'exotic' cruise we had done to date and it was just fantastic! We kept joking that we should take a Carnival cruise before all of our cruises to make them seem that much better each time! Seriously though, even if we had not just come off the hellhole that was the Ecstasy, this cruise was amazing. Staff were super friendly, food was delicious and the right temperature, kids club staff super fun, and the ship was constantly being cleaned. This cruise really just sealed the deal that Royal Caribbean is obviously the correct line for me and my family and we'll continue to sail them in the future, only straying from time to time. This itinerary is not being repeated next year due to issues with the Indian government, but I really hope they bring it back in the future as I would do it again in a heartbeat!

Pretty sure the GKTW Pirate and Princess Party is better than the Disney one!

Q: What's cuter than a baby seal? A: A freakin Lego baby seal!!!!!

^Keep in mind you need to allow probably 4 hours each way to be safe getting from Guangzhou to Hong Kong Disney with the border crossing and Chinese traffic in a very busy area. May be a better idea to save Hong Kong for the future and stick to something closer to where you'll be.

^Yeah, it could probably do with a lowering of the height requirement at this point as well!

Exactly what I expected, and perfect for the park!

Just getting caught up on all of these since I was away on the Dubai trip. Amazing report Divv, really enjoyed it, thanks for all the kind words! Oh, and while on the Dubai trip, we did 99% confirm our 2013 Japan Trip!!! And OF COURSE it will include DISNEY!!!!!!

I am very excited for this! Angry Birds Land > Harry Potter Land

Was the fire going today?

Oh these parks and their wraps and painting choices...terrible!!!

The trip was split into two parts, not everyone did both parts.

^Perhaps Holiday World would be interested in bidding?

^^Yeah sounds to me as if you had an off experience at the park. Whenever we've been there the loading procedures and wait times have been just awesome!

That's hilarious!

I do not want to see any more posting in this thread that XY Park is Out of Room or XY Park can't fit a Wing Rider. Shut up.

Very cool Kara, thanks for all the insight into how the facility works and what all of the money is going towards. Adam, why would you tell someone their goal is too high!?!?!? The whole idea of a goal is to put something far away but in reach, I have full faith in all of our participants that they'll exceed their goals!

What's the old saying again? You can't polish a turd. SLC's...ugh.

^Shocking that once again Japan has the 'best' version of a ride/restaurant/park/machine/anything.

It's really hard for me to find Colin/Colon in your pictures, if only he wore something that would make him stand out more.
