^^Discovery Cove is amazing. You are not wrong with your suggestion. -
The Europa Park Mice. But I really don't like most costumed characters. The Disney Characters are fine.

Popcorn! But I can't have it right now because of my braces.

Fun fact! Cat in the Hat didn't always have a 36" height restriction. You just had to 'be able to walk'. I've never seen so many children pressured into their first steps in front of that ride so I suppose that's why they eventually had to enforce an actual 'provable' restriction! "There's too much rain and not enough sun, But you must be 36 inches to have any fun!"

This. Merlin is really starting to get to me. I'm just not happy with how they're running a lot of their "newer" acquired parks. -
I'm glad to hear your opinion on Fury. Robb and I also felt it was a great B&M and certainly one of (if not the best) B&M Hypers...but it doesn't compare to some of the other Intamin Hypers and even Megalites out there. I was the only one in my group that liked the Plants vs. Zombies game! We never had enough people though and the op didn't even really try to spread people out so it was like 3 plants vs 10 zombies so we had no chance!

It can't be too insane, it can't be brand new, it can't hurt you, being a wooden coaster helps its sincerity, it cannot have a shed, this is a good starting point.

Yes, as long as I don't have to ride with you!

Pretty sure we're currently in the opening sequence of Idiocracy. Things are only going to get worse and less safe as our society devolves. -
I'm all for 42" - 48" thrill rides, but in my constant yelling at parks to make sure areas within a park have something for everyone, Potter Hell already has a 36" ride, a 48" ride, a few shows, a zero height restriction train ride, and this big 54" ride so honestly I was okay with that. Like others have said if this is some big, bad Dynamic Attractions / Intamin roller coaster...GREAT! But if I'm staring at a screen and wearing 3D googles and getting sprayed by water...well...

Went and got KT her first and last rides on Dragons today (also my last rides). It really is a shame to get rid of two really awesome coasters that people get off of and run back around to the re-ride area. Look, I get that they don't duel and that sucks. I haven't ridden them much since they stopped that and in fact, this was my first time riding since the stupid metal detectors and lockers were put in, but DAMN, they're still running amazing, just like they did in 1999. I do question the decision to completely rebuild a ride that is themed to a property that your competitor now owns, while scrapping a ride 1000 feet away that ties into the biggest property you own. I blame JK Rowling mostly for this as we always knew she wasn't happy with Universal keeping those in 'her' area. The fact that Sinbad will remain while dragons gets scrapped is pretty harsh. Anyways, I've said my piece and I'm done. Here are some pix of KT! Yay for being 54"! She thought Fire was super intense and a really good ride. She thought Ice was REALLY good. One of the best coasters she had been on.

If you're going to stay near BGT ONLY stay on Fowler Ave. NO WHERE ELSE!!!! Is it like South Central LA or 90's Bronx? No. Would I want to stay there at night? No. -
1. McDonalds at the Dubai location. 2. Not Richard Jefferson! (inside joke between KT and Garbels)
