I'm not sure a water feature is the best idea for a memorial. It'd be like LPS lighting an eternal flame for the ghost train. Just had a chance to read the article and I thought it was quite respectful, well written and well researched. there was a lot of fact checking there and for once it was good to read something on News.com without rolling my eyes.

Props to Natalie Wolfe there, that was the least garbagey & unbiased piece i've ever read from NewsCorp - there was some actual journalism and dare I say, research, written into that piece.

Dreamworld is just lucky there are cyclists not using the bike lanes to keep impressionable morons busy.

So with Fright Nights Starting Tonight Adventure World have posted some pictures. So these are off the outdoor cinema showing 80s horror films. The screen. The Goliath Skull lit up. They also did a live video showing off the cool lighting for Goliath. Not sure what they have used but the lighting on the support structure that chases up and down looks very cool. Its good to see them expanding the event and making 2 separate events one for the families and one for the older generation. Should be a fun night and AW said on their Facebook page that tickets are selling fast and there are not many left. Update: a few more photos have been posted from the 18+ graveyard bar. hopfully the weather stays good. Not looking the best.

Wasn't able to post this yesterday due to poor connection, but this was in the Gold Coast bulletin. I'm impressed. A respectful, yet overwhelmingly positive article.

While it would be great to see a memorial, I do not think Dreamworld needs to hang onto this accident too much - sure, it happened, and it was bad - but they've been able to move on from it since. A plaque, a garden and a small fountain should make for a sound memorial, preferably in a place that doesn't hinder their possibility to expand and add another ride on the site. Something like the memorial garden LPS did for the Ghost Train fire in the 1995 redevelopment is suitable. Looking back on it now, Dreamworld has done well since what happened and have been able to bounce back. Now, a year on, hopefully this continues.
