Hi Everybody: I'm back from Miami and Orlando and man I got some stuff to tell everybody.  First let me say the word around Orlando parks is Hollywood Rip Rocket Ride coaster.  Most of the crowds are just talking about Hollywood Rip Rocket as the next big thing. There's big anticipation for this coaster.  
Razz  Shocked
As for local business in Orlando there a lot of buzz about Legoland coming. Rumors are saying the defunk Splendid China theme park as the site as well as Cypress Garden. I got word and photo's about Star Tours redo, Disney survey groups at the parks, and ride reviews like Manta and a shuttle ride that not the one you think.   Shocked  And a secret park too.
I got photo's and I hope to bring a voice trip report on the phone or mp3.
Also, I going to share my trip to Williamsburg at the Busch parks and some world about the parks future.  I'll try to have the trip report ready soon, but I had some bad family news that going to take up some of my time. Sorry.
Let say this. When I first got into listing to theme park podcast I didn't know how much it would change my view of theme parks. As a rider and customer to the parks I took thing's for granted, but with the Season Pass, Coaster Radio, Disney podcast, and others I find a new appreciation for the theme parks and what they bring. It reminds me of a tree course I took in school where the teacher said after this class "you will never look at a tree the same".  Same can be said here. Thanks guy's  Very Happy

Hey,

I went to Holiday World today and I noticed something interesting. First off, while riding Pilgrams Plunge I noticed some landscape changes to area between Pilgrams Plunge and The Voyage.... such as the little red/orange-ish flags in the ground and a couple tractor trailor trucks. Next, after we got off PP we headed into the water park. Behind Kima Bay (located next to The Voyage) and the restrooms/oaisis stall there are some more little flags and while we were coming from PP there were 3 guys out there doing something around all those flags. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera, because first thought was to take a picture. Anyhow, I'm not sure what's going on... anyone know?
