Is Marineland worth a visit?

[bert425]

So it sounds as if Marineland hasn't changed much since we visited. Glad to hear that they are adding something new though!

 

We're actually at the ER now. Michael's condition has worsened, so his doctor recommended this as precaution. BP is low and he's running a temperature. They think that it might be CHF, but they're running all the tests now.

 

Safe travels home, Bert...we also hope to be home soon.

 

we made it home safe, after a very long day of traveling.

 

hope things took a turn for the better while we were flying and Michael has improved?

 

sending good thoughts up your way!

That's a real tease seeing the Topple Tower still standing considering how rare those troublesome flats are.

TR up, and finally got to part 1 of MarineLand:

Sadly the owner just died.

 

He had some infamy but it is pretty impressive he was able to build a park of that size starting with just $2,500!

I'm very happy he finally was cleared of all charges, proving he truly did LOVE all of his animals.

Rest in peace, John.

I hope it continues to operate for many more generations of kids and families as John always fought to maintain.
