Can you link to those helicopter ads? I was there the day they shot those, and I have been waiting to see if I was in any of the shots.

I worded it wrong. It is not rough, but it has some weird and unpleasant vibrations throughout the ride. I, too, love laterals.

Kings Dominion in 2 Hours
As Terp said, there was a tropical storm coming through the area. We also had multiple tornado watches. It wasn't just a normal rain storm. Kings Dominion.

Larosas different at the park?
I agree that it is different, but I prefer the pizza from their restaurants.

I like the ride. If KI was to put one in, I would hope they would go with a different designer. Zierer designed Verbolten, and for a new, steel coaster it is pretty rough.

You would be correct. Whoops.

Here are the pictures from today. And I do not know why they put Ohio St's logo in the flower bed, but it made me feel at home.

I thought it was a snoozefest. I have been on two other floorless coasters and I'm not amazed by either one.

Kings Dominion in 2 Hours
I had the day off from Busch today, so I decided to take a trip to KD. I woke up around two and left around three after showering and some laundry. I arrived at 4 and the park closed at 6. In that short time I got in a front and back ride on I305, one ride on Volcano in the very back, one ride on Avalanche, two rides on Wild Eagles, two rides on Rebel Yell, one ride on Grizzly and one ride on Dominator to finish off the day. It was my first trip ever to the park, and I was impressed. It is beautiful. Not in the Busch Gardens kind of way, but the amount of trees is awesome. I305 was insane. I grey out on most rides, (No clue why) but I305 made me almost pass out. I loved it. Top 5 coaster for sure. Volcano was very cool. The barrel rolls are unique and very fun. Not sure why not a lot of people built these coasters. Rebel Yell I thought was better than KI's Racers. The first drop nearly threw me out of my seat. Grizzly was average. Dominator was pretty boring and also rough. I took a lot of pictures, but when I returned home and put the memory card in my laptop only 6 or so pictures would appear. Makes me mad. Anyways, thanks for reading.

Little Things You Notice
Bad Day is by Daniel Powter, but I agree with you.

Young'uns do get something new. They eventually are tall enough to ride the bigger rides which are new to them. New little kids replace the ones that are tall enough for bigger rides, so everything in Planet Snoopy is new to them. It's a cycle. Hmm? My 4 year old loved her Planet Snoopy last year, now she would rather go to the bounce house! If you don't have kids ,don't speak for them! I get what you saying though. And eventually your 4 year old will love Diamondback, which will be completely new to her. Another 4 year old will come around and take her place and love Planet Snoopy. That experience will be new to that child. Like I said, it is a cycle. FWIW, you're right. I don't have kids and hope I never do, but I do not see how I was "speaking for them."

Huh. We, as employees, were told they were just going to put in a new live entertainment show. I hope you are the correct one.

Terp, maybe I misunderstood what you said, but which park is getting rid of the building that houses Pirates 4D?

OK! Thanks for the warning. When I was 7 in 2000, I saw a raccoon on a camping trip.

Guests Say The Darnest Things
I was going to get a water during work and a young international worker asked the cashier for water. The cashier asked: "Do you want bottled water or a free cup of water?" The international worker replied: "How much is a free cup of water?"

I petted a squirrel yesterday at Busch Gardens. I'm afraid they are going to bite me eventually, but they are too cute not to try and pet.

That I do not know. I have heard a rumor that they will announce a new drop ride on June 11. Also Gwazi may or may not be giving it's final rides. He is talking about BG Williamsburg. Not Tampa. Williamsburg already has a drop ride.
