I agree. if done right, KI (or any of the CF parks) could do great business for Winterfest. Went to the Columbus Zoo (I forget the name) last November and it was wall-to-wall people. Anyone who has seen the lengths that Disney goes to (if even by picture) for the Christmas season would guess that if done right it would be a cash-cow. Do they have the stomach for it? If led by Kinzel, no. With the new guy and a history of success (80's and 90's)- it is a possibility, though I wouldn't look for anything in 2012.

Maple Grove? Of course. No, I believe he was referring to Geauga Lake.

oscar's, I think.

"Then I rode Hurled 1 more time, and realized storks were coming. So I took one last ride on Intimidator, so I could get a ride photo. Then we went back to our car and it started to rain. Overall, it was a great dayvand I got a to. of rides in. got to watch it when those lousy storks approach. they could really kill a day of fun on a coaster.

since Cedar Point is the flagship park in the chain (a designation that KI had under the PKI years) I'm guessing that there is something "better" about theirs, so let's say- the Ki WindSeeker for the Cedar Point WindSeeker. Even-Steven.

... i'm way too opinionated to jump into this one. Let me just say ditto to everything the Honorable Gordon Bombay said.

I may be late to the ponderosa here- but it action theater closed now?

it would be interesting if one of the old trains were still around. The track was red with black supports. would have been pretty cool (i think) if when the name "Top Gun" met its demise, the CF Brass renamed the coaster "The Bat," "Bat's Revenge" etc... and gave it the old color scheme. the layout of the track is very attune to that of a bat- moreso than a flight deck; there aren't too many flight patterns that go around trees like that... but bats do.

the west side of the interstate exit at one time included much grander plans than what we see today... The Beach had really deteriorated over the last few years- the grounds were not as manicured as they once were- and I agree with Mr. Bombay... nothing new in the last decade, I think- lent itself to a decline. As far as things finding their way to KI (or other)- the tubes above are pretty old- and the really unique slides are cement and follow the ground. It's VERY unfortunate- but I can only see bull-dozers in the future.

Simple math, Width X Height +1 even so. fingers were counting a row of vertical and a row of horizontal to arrive at sum values to plug into a calculator.
-
it bothers me that someone (and probably others) took the time to count and do the math on that one.

that's pretty good (it's technically a commonwealth though...)

how about those of us that received the error, read this thread, and did not contribute a thing productive to it's content; can we be included in on that beer?

Gabe is right, though there are sometimes several resorts that loop the same line- Boardwalk, Beach Club, Dolphin, and Swan are the same bus., etc... but they don't go to the others. Saratoga Springs and Port Orleans are the same. Contemporary is with Fort Wilderness.

that's literally right off I-4 isn't it? Definitely visit downtown disney though. Downtown Disney is 100% disney related shops (ie- Once Upon a Toy, etc...)- Pleasure Island, part of the same complex is entertainment and other unrelated shops. But I would definitely hop on the Disney bus transportation and go to the different resorts- you can defininately burn a day doing that... and its all free, except what you spend. A few years ago it was wayyyyy too cold to go to a park, so we spent an entire day at Downtown Disney, going between the different resorts, and riding the monorail between parks, taking the catamaran (water taxi) between epcot and Hollywood Studios, etc... all free.
-
what hotel, if you don't mind the question?
-
No. it's free to roam. and you can get on the Disney transportation and ride and walk through the resorts for free as well. You do not have to be staying there. Parking is FREE. just got back from our annual trip a few weeks ago.

that's a great (and probably accurate) illustration 'Terp.

flight deck ever going to get some :"striking" colors- or will it be faded gray and rust for several more years?
