Barge84 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Awesome TR! I was down there with some friends from 9/28-10/8. It was my first F&W, and we all had an amazing time. I'm definitely going back next year. A couple of other notes: Â 1. Our Halloween Party was sold out on the 30th. The crowds were unreal. I'm guessing it had something to do with it being the weekend of the 40th anniversary. Â 2. The parking lots changed while I was down there. Seemed silly when I first heard about it, but I liked that there's a dedicated tram for each side of the parking lot now. Gets you out to your car a little faster.

IneedTPforbunghole Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Yay for KidTums. Another credit for her! I wonder is she approves of Thunder Mountain. TPR Halloween = Madness and Drunk Piers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Benvenuto Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 It looks like you're all having an amazing time at the World! Revisiting Orlando is on my near-future hit list, I haven't been in Orlando since I was ten and that was in 2001. I really need to go back, especially around Halloween like you are right now. I hope the rest of the visit is magical and absolutely amazing, outside of that "certain" IOA status I read on your Facebook, Robb. Â I wish I could be there with all of you, it looks wonderful and the food sounds wonderfully tempting *punts his cherry pie out his window*.

robbalvey Posted October 15, 2011 Author Share Posted October 15, 2011 (edited) Today was an incredible day at Legoland Florida! I was so impressed how the park has been transformed. I'll do a full update soon, but for now here are a couple of photos and some videos to hold you over.... Â TPR had an amazing time at Legoland Florida. The transformation well exceeded expectations! Perfect fit in family of Legoland parks! Â This is the only Southern Belle that would let Robb touch her! Â The traditional Cypress Gardens have been beautifully preserved at Legoland Florida! Â TPR's Favorite Legoland attraction.... Rescue Academy!!! Â It's a race to put out the fire! Â The 50th Million "Golden Brick" is put in place to officially finish and open Legoland Florida.

xmichellex Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Awesome POV's (as always)! Â What an awesome park for kids--those are some of the coolest kid coasters I've seen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moose Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 ^agreed. When I heard they were using the existing coaster I was a little concerned that this dragon would pale in comparison to the rest but it looks great! Thanks for the update!

Jew Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 It's a shorter coaster, but the same fun dark ride as the others! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Of Spades Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I never realized until watching the POV's that the normal and inverted Vekoma junior coasters have essentially the same layout. I feel dumb now. Â Still though, this park looks great, and might finally be the first new successful park that the US has had in almost a decade!

The SETGO Guys Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I also attended media day. Â I was at Cypress Gardens the last operating day as well. IMO the park is much nicer and more enjoyable as a Legoland park. Â At the media event, it was announced the park will be expanding in May 2012 with the addition of a Legoland Waterpark. Their area also plans for a Lego Themed resort hotel in the near future! The long term goal is for Legoland Florida to become a multi-day resort destination.

Meteornotes Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 I have returned from my epic week (more or less) in Orlando. I'm tired, bruised, injured, have new scars, don't need to eat for about a month, and cannot wait to do it again. This is always my favorite week of the year. I didn't take too many pictures, except of food. Probably because I was constantly eating! Seriously, Food & Wine is something everyone should do at least once. It is so much fun. Â And I would totally move to the country of Cheese... Â dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
