Dreamworld is in a tough spot now. With revenue down there will definitely be a lower CAPEX. Building a roller coaster now is going to be a tough job as anything they do will now be compared to what is happening down the road. Has anyone got any ideas of cheaper options that would still make hem stand out and draw customers back.

So the fenced off area is for nothing to exciting. They are using the area to load the old Mammoth Falls. I wonder where it is going.

Just sitting in the Movieworld carpark now enjoying some McDonald's and admiring this beast of a coaster. As said in a few posts, the photos don't do this thing justice. The impression you get as you turn into Movieworld, this coaster just blows you away. The large crane is currently maneuvering into a new position . There is not much track left in the holding yard but there is still 6 containers that look like they haven't been unloaded yet.

For 4 people. Including one very impatient 7 year old.

I am only thinking of this as an option due to the front of line passes. Being the summer holiday period, i really don't want to queue for hours. It does make the day at US a $2000 day though.

So still planning this trip at the moment. Just wondering if anyone here has done the VIP experience at Universal Studios? I am just trying to work out if it is worth it.

Well bugger me. I thought I was on to something.

Or will it... Most distribution boards I have seen and worked on are orange. This one is an interesting blue colour, so has this clue been sitting in front of us the whole time? In regards to the transformer, from planning to installation this normally takes over 6 months. I would assume it is staying.

So it has probably been asked to death somewhere in amongst these forums, which means I probably would have read about it at one time or another, however, I am wondering if anybody on here has had any experience of the California Parks during the US summer holidays. I am in the unfortunate conundrum of wanting to take the family to Disneyland before the eldest turns 18 in August, but she now has University which means the only time that we could actually go is during these holidays. I guess what I really want to know is if it is still worth it? Any feedback will be appreciated and taken on board while planning.

Has there beeen any recent satellite images of the Mack factory?

I feel dumber for watching their video, yet I just gave them another view. Stoopid me. 10 minutes I ain't getting back.

Nova are already promoting and giving away passes to ride Aussie Worlds new ride. Looks like another great addition to Aussie Worlds growing attractions. Don't all enter the comp though as I want to win. http://www.nova1069.com.au/win/win-family-pass-4-nova-bus-aussie-world

Tragedies happen every day, but this is something that will touch so many as we think about all the fun times we have had with our friends and family while riding the Thunder River Rapids. So many people are feeling affected by this. I feel like I have to write something. My heart goes out to all those involved.

Hmmm, is there a hint in that? Looks like my guess may be wrong.

My money is on Aquaman

Any idea on the other 2 family attractions?

Thanks.

Not sure if it has been asked or duscussed yet, but I am looking at doing the UTT and was wondering, does the UTT come with general entry to Fright Nights or is the cost in addition to entry?

Anyone know if they are going to roll out any of the scare actors for the Blair Witch screening on Sunday night?

From the cgi image in the article it looks as though the hotel/casino is built on the grassed area before you get to SeaWorld. I was sure Village owned that land. Quite possibly there would be land reclamation into the broadwater. 3 billion dollars is a lot of money, part of the deal may be the funding of the reclamation for SeaWorld due to offloading the land south. Who knows? Is this the major announcement that we all thought was the MW attraction?

Todays Sunday Mail mentions that Sea World is looking to double its size and add a water park. Apparently SeaWorld have been in talks with Crown and Chinese consortium AFS to "expand the theme parks footprint." It also says that it will become the biggest theme park in the country. Didn't see that coming.

Thanks for that. I just realised I put this in the wrong thread. That picture looks the same as google earth.

Can anyone get a picture of the Mack factory on Nearmap? I tried Google earth and it is from 2009. Thought we may get same track photos.

Why tomorrow? Did I miss something?
