I misplaced my car keys once @ KI, but I don't think we are discussing that type of thing.

I actually really like WindSeeker's location. In my opinion, it does not seem like a quick "where can we find space to put this thing?" descision. From what I can tell, WindSeeker's placement was well thought out.

This may just be coincidence, but I just wanted to point it out:

-When on International Street, stop in front of the fountains and take in the picturesque view for a moment. See WindSeeker? That's right! WindSeeker seems to hide perfectly behind the Eiffel Tower as to not ruin the view. In fact, from most of the many great photo spots in and around International Street, it is difficult to see WindSeeker.

-WindSeeker's location in relation to Coney seems much like the Eiffel Tower's location in relation to International Street. They both seem to mark the ends of their designated areas.

-WindSeeker finally brought much needed improvements to the vacant ghost town that was the rear end of Coney Mall. It may seem crammed, but it makes use of that once depressing space very nicely, plus, the ride in general fits perfectly with the area.

Just my $0.02...

To answer Maverick00's question, I haven't seen WindSeeker have long lines this year. I went on a fairly busy Thursday about a month back, and the wait was only like 5 minutes. I went on Sunday, June 10th, I just had to wait for the cycle to end. I also went 2 days ago, and the line was only 5 minutes. I haven't seen the switchback used yet this year, but then again, I haven't ride it on a Saturday yet this year.
