To encourage you to go multiple times. I have a feeling that many people who have two-day tickets wouldn't have visited the park the second day otherwise, so anything they spend is extra profit for the park. Or I could be totally wrong, but it makes sense to me.

I thought they were $51 last year. If they increased it couldn't have been by more than a few dollars. And I don't think parking has increased, last time I was down there I didn't see any new parking signs with different prices.

http://www.KICentral...album=157&pos=1 1 day 2007: $44.95 1 day 2011: $51.99 2 day 2007: $54.95 2 day 2011: $51.99 Hmm. 2 day tickets are actually cheaper now. Go figure. (for comparison, a Disney ticket in 2007 was apparently $71. Now, it's $82... bigger increase than KI, eh? Haven't seen any horrid comments about Disney's management lately that I recall...)

I personally liked DCA better when it opened than now. Replacing a fun thrill ride with a "park area" is one of the worst decisions I've seen from Disney in quite a while. Of course, I'm stupid enough to think that animated characters and Esurance commercials don't belong in Epcot, so that shows what I know. Oh, and I very dearly miss Dreamflight.

I never noticed before, but I'm now convinced that the world's most obvious security camera is located on Ice Scream Zone's sign.

Is that Outer Hanks maybe? I can't tell where it is!

If they don't want people who don't work in rides to see it, they shouldn't put it up where anyone can see and join it.

I'm still getting it, *and* this morning it kept saying that the domain name was expired!

If it's the one I linked to in one of my posts, I think they got rid of it.

Chrome has just changed the title of my Most Visited link for KIC to "500 Internal Server Error". Win.

It actually seems like a nice photo op...

They can also afford to not finish some small things (landscaping, signage besides safety signage, loose article bins, etc.) until after opening day.

I never understood people's obsession with the passes not having their picture on it. There's not much of a point to it since the picture comes up on the screen when it's scanned (and sometimes doesn't, but that's a story for another thread...).

2 things: 1. I hope you've seen Mesa Verde Times. Not that I approve of what they did, but I'm glad they did it. 2. That is pure awesome. I really wish I remember that ride better than I do... it's dearly missed.

Is that a Horizons tattoo?

This is what I imagine the front of the operator booth looking like: (please excuse my poor drawing skills) The window in front is where the ride op could see the area where the ride loads. The area on the roof with the reflection of the ride in it is the window/skylight that the ride op could see the ride running from.

It's probably going to be a skylight like Power Tower has at CP and Detonator has at WoF.

Be glad you don't have to do this... http://www.iaapa.org/industry/funworld/2011/apr/features/HumanResources/ If I were asked to "play the hokey pokey" during a job interview, I would first look for the hidden camera, then leave.

The interview is not hard at all, as long as you don't try to make up answers to the questions that you think sound good and answer honestly, because they can tell when you're making stuff up.

Oh. I haven't acquired one yet, I'll have to do that sometime. Wait, is the map in the park guide different from the website one? It would be if it doesn't show the volleyball thing...

The online map shows a volleyball court with sand. (where are people getting maps??)

What's the building that is shown between Diamondback's line and Rivertown Junction? Is that really there? And, is there really a volleyball court in Picnic Grove?

Coney Mall will be beautiful by Opening Day.
