Hopefully they trim the vines around Trident during this extended maintenance period, ‘cause they’re already getting a bit out of hand. Also, don’t know how common it is to see JR with scaffolding around it like this during a maintenance period (I guess every time it’s repainted), but this is the first time I remember seeing it & thought it was interesting.

Small update for the former VR area as a whole: The path up to the castle is once again open to guests… But the castle itself has both entrances boarded up the same way that VR’s entrance & exit cutouts are. Here’s hoping it’s not permanent, and the building/plot will actually have a use (especially considering they’ve just built a BoH shed in prime expansion area), and keeping this as a shell would be very disappointing. Anyway, quick pic of the new pathway after being grown in a bit more. And progress on the fence for what’s very likely to end up as another walkway (former station area). I guess it could be argued this is would open up a more wheelchair accessible way to get from Nickelodeon to Storm, but it still doesn’t sit great with me seeing all this space be seemingly used for nothing more than a path & lawn, especially for a landlocked park that, again, just plonked a shed in their best expansion plot.

I can see where you are coming from, but it would be $400 in flights for a family of 4 (If you fly at 11am on a Tuesday) and 90 mins flying (If you ignore the time taken to drive and check in to the airport) still makes it more of an undertaking. I think people do drive if the park is worth it, Jamberoo and Gumbuya demonstrate that, and heck its an hours drive for most of Brisbane when heading to the GC parks. At the very least, I'd think the Central coast area could support a water park, and the case may improve if the HSR to Newcastle is ever built. As for a dry park, yeah with Sydney being so expensive, it would probably be out at Bradfield, but fortunately since Sydney has expanded westwards, its now closer to more people than Wonderland was when it closed.

Honest question I know its a bussiness and they want to make as much $ as possible but I think the amount of people MW let in at peak times is ridiclous. If reputation really is important they should cap tickets sold online or have a booking system for 1 day tickets because during holidays is where most of the word of mouth comes from. If they care about the reputation and it really does play a big part People are not going to reward the park with good reviews and returns if every ride has a 3 hour que and staff treat you like a peice of shit. Moive World for me need to get this right Long ques need to be expected but they need to be within in reason and their has to be more effort to make you enjoy your day. This applies to Dreamworld but because its bigger and doesent reach the same attendance Is the only reason why I have targeted MW on this ocasion. But I like how MW socials have been theres not fault in that and im very happy with their recent steps in the past week.

I haven't seen this before. More information here: https://earthstory.com.au/portfolio-dreamworld-jungle-rush.html
