We all love to discuss VF's future. Coasters, slides, rides, and shows. There's most likely going to be a large addition within the next 3 years (given the parks history & statistics when adding…Continue

"and allow folks to slide down two intertwining tubes" So I guess these are spirals, not drops. Oh well.

It's a shame that you didn't get to hit up Jaws. Seeing it being torn down makes me kind of sentimental, but that's probably me just being overly-emotional with the removal of water rides. Great TR! Keep up the good stories!

Hey gang, without further adieu I present Day 2 Day 2 Universal Studios We stayed at the Holiday Inn across the street from the Universal Resort, which was easy walking distance to City Walk and the two parks. For those not familiar with how…

Still no vertical construction today. Concrete looks completely done, footers, base, and queue. Nothing much beyond that. Gangplank is also closed down to make way for the slides. Both entrances were blocked, making it…

Great trip report thus far! I definitely have to agree on most of your reviews. The Forbidden Journey did indeed have a great queue line, and I agree that it should be longer. I went on Popeye/Bluto's in 04 when I went to IOA, and I…

Mini TR (Orlando & Tampa Parks)

Hey all,I recently got back from Florida and thought I'd share some observations from my trip. All in all we ended up hitting up Islands of Adventure, Universal Studios, Busch Gardens Africa or Tampa whichever they're calling it these days, Disney's Hollywood Studios, Epcot, Disney's Animal Kingdom and Sea World Orlando. Ten years ago I had been to IoA, Hollywood Studios, Epcot and SWO so it was interesting to compare and see what changes had been made. Anyway, on to the parks. Day 1Islands…See More

Great idea for a thread! I really wish I had more theme park photos from back in the day. I'll see if I can dig some up

Old Amusement Park Pictures

I was looking through some old pictures today, and I thought they might be kinda cool to upload. I would love to see some other people older pictures from parks too! Here's my first Roller Coaster Ride on The Lil' Shaver at Knott's Camp Snoopy. I think I was between 18 and 20 months here. My first inverting ride, Paul Bunyan's…See More

Well said vfhauntfreak. That all makes perfect sense. I guess the threat of a Mega-Lite just came from the enthusiast part of my brain. It really wouldn't be marketable especially since it wouldn't be taller than…
