Coasterama Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 Doesn't the family own campgrounds and such in Santa Clause already? A coaster is my guess, but a well themed hotel could work? For year round business: I agree. The 66 Days at Sea site looks too well themed for it to only be a hotel. I would like to see a new B&M.... possibly a wing coaster? Who Knows?

flightoffear1996 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I enjoyed Holiday World when I went a few years ago but I found my-self board with the place after a few hours. If this some sort of steel coaster it might get me back through the gates at least once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB1 Posted May 22, 2014 Share Posted May 22, 2014 I smell a turkey in the oven, I put a little bit of gravy in before I put it in so I should be just fine. Also, don't put too much water on turkeys, for they do not fare well on water...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDMC01 Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 I don't know if this has any relevance/relation to the new attraction, but the first result that came up when I searched "66 days at sea" via Google was this: http://www.amazon.com/66-Days-Adrift-Disaster-Survival/dp/0071438742. The second result was Holiday World's "66 Days at Sea" site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banshee Back VII Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 It should be a turkey-themed flying coaster called Bird of Flight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Interpreter Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Only Wild Turkeys fly. And Indiana ain't the Wild Turkey state. Though there is more than corn in Indiana. I. B. Terp (aka O'Terpy). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTW Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 I would love another big draw ride at Holiday World. For me, for now that place would be a nice place to visit but it isn't a "must do"... yet. I'm not much of a water attraction person but my kids may be one day, and if there is another ride for me to talk them onto it may become a nice day or weekend trip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 Today's update is... interesting, to say the least: Each evening, we women plan meals for the next day. We cook for the passengers, but not the crew. The children suggest in a sly manner that they desire salt fish for each meal. We smile, knowing what a fine game could be made out of an empty barrel. Plus a drawing of a barrel. Any ideas here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcgoble3 Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Day 7: The days and nights seem to run together as we continue toward the New World. The crew tells us we have taken a chance with our late departure from Plymouth. Those who know say October seas are rougher than in September. Along with two pictures of ominous-looking skies. Could the reference to being "rougher" be pointing toward another wooden coaster? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTW Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 Wait and see. After last year's super fast paced 2014 decoding I'm so over guessing and speculating until there is real evidence. Queue the green INTAMIN track. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDMC01 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 Day 9's reading is as such: "We miss the friends who were forced to stay behind when Speedwell twice took on water, delaying our departure. We must believe the Mayflower will deliver us safely to the New World. We pray those left behind will join us someday." (quoted from http://www.holidayworld.com/66days/ (Day 9), my emphasis on the last sentence) I think Day 9 (especially the bolded part) is telling us that whatever the attraction(s) are, it will either be A: a project that will be rolled out in multiple phases or B: something that had to lose initial features at first, but that hopefully these features will be added in coming years (see Sheikra- IIRC, it was supposed to have floorless trains when it first opened, but they were not added until later). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcgoble3 Posted May 28, 2014 Share Posted May 28, 2014 We missed Day 8: We have learned the ship’s swabber gains a new assistant each Monday. This crew member is called the liar and is thus proclaimed for having told a public untruth. The liar must clean what the swabber will not, the beakhead and chains. WTF?

Guest FersureShelbi Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Day 10: "It is our tenth day at sea. Three of our fellow passengers are with child and feeling poorly. To cheer them up, the children and I drew flowers for each. Mayflowers are so delicate, but our ship remains sturdy as we continue our voyage. Plus a picture of what appears to be a flower. Day 11: "On the deck of the Mayflower, we breathe deeply and enjoy the crispness of the autumn air. The children look to the skies and imagine what secrets exist within the massive clouds. We may never know, but will surely dream of them tonight." Plus three more pictures of clouds. Source: http://www.holidayworld.com/66days/ They really like to post pictures of clouds and because of that I wonder if it would be something like the WindSeeker? Something tall where you would get a good view of clouds or literally be in them. Though this is probably highly unlikely, wouldn't really be a "family" ride.

MantisMan Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 ^ A WindSeeker ride would not require multiple clearings through the woods. Which they have already done and I have seen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
