Park Addict 93

When I visited on New Years Eve they were requiring rash shirts tucked into your board shorts and those wearing bikinis/speedos were required to put on shorts that were provided (and tuck in the rash shirts) There is defiantly a difference between the outside and the inside, I make it through on the outside with ease but I have to push myself to make it through the loop on the inside .

I am not that surprised, I believe DW made a better fit than MW or any Sydney location. MW have plenty to keep themselves busy with in 2012 anyway.

You can upgrade your Local Summer Pass for $20 for a June 30 expiry

I have had many but my favorite would be on Wild West Falls at unload a woman angrily said to the ride op "I got soaked" the ride op replied enthusiastically with "Great, the ride works".

Why Did You Not Simply Reply To The Existing Topic?

Shhh Nobody knows abut that yet! As for Lethal I cant wait for the new trains and retheme and agree that it will likely/hopefully be done during that rather long maintenance period

Quick correction

My highlight of the nights (have been to both public evenings so far) are Superman in the dark and the lights before and after the Christmas Parade synchronised to music. The biggest disappointment was the Kwazy Christmas shows, whilst I am not the intended audience I saw many families leaving and on the second night a carol was cut certainly a step down from Looney Tunes on Ice last year. For those not allergic to Facebook theme park pages, have uploaded many photos here.

Also worthing noting a MyFun ad in the Sunday Mail today stated opening is the 20th for Spongebob (and Dora I assume)

Nobody loves Symbian anymore

They were handing them out at the entrance of Fright Night

Here is a shot from today The whole parade has been redone, more than just this float... Unfortunately no Justice League.

^^ I completely agree with you, in regards to the cinema DW (and sometimes VRTP) often does what is better for revenue/business rather than guest satisfaction and the fact VRTP do not seem to value their history nor want to promote it. Castaway Bay, the Aqualoop, Artic Penguins are all suburb additions to their parks however DW is getting all the attention to due a great marketing campaign of the Summer Funomenon. I have heard the same in regards to DW's 2011 ride (pushing boundaries, literally). My understanding is only Senior Management are currently informed, they are certainly being very secretive at this stage. I know nothing much

I am under the impression you can (excluding the 11:00AM session) but dont quote me

From what I have heard the entire ride (Bermuda) is effectively "scrapped" I am thinking they will need a high capacity ride, and rapids would be a good fit if it is themed well.

Yep, isn't rather than is

Whilst it would be nice for Dreamworld to include the movie with admission this is DW we are talking about Whilst the Summer Funomenon looks fairly entertaining it is good to know this is the only thing planned for their birthday

I knew a name change was in the works - I think Skypoint sounds good, the website is up http://www.skypoint.com.au/ - Basically the same site as QDeck although it has the new logo

I would be interested in seeing it (if you upload it) even if it is mostly a big advertisement for VRTP.

I was very impressed with all the floats, a closeup of the train on that float is here Was their any more shows/things happening that wasn't on the charity night?

They certainly could fight it and have every right to request it to be taken down if/when I post it. The fact is I seriously doubt they would care about a book almost 20 years old and no longer in print. Excellent to hear, I have never seen a souvenir book inside MW before.... Anyone know when the one before this was last made?

I was certainly not a fan of the roof when it was being built/in the first few months. But being there when it rains, you can certainly see the benefit, especially for out of hours events. During the first Fright Night this year it was heavily raining, and they could not have held White Christmas/Looney Tunes on Ice, the Parade and more without it. To sum it up - The benefits far outweigh the negatives

I doubt the parks would take issue with old books that are no longer in production being uploaded... I wont be able to upload my MW one yet, am on holiday in the US

I was at the Charity Event White Xmas last night, and the park looked spectacular, all rides were open excluding Wild West and Batwing (Under matinance). The family's/guests attending the night from various tough situations all received free Burger/Drink/Paddle Pop/Sideshow Game, Santa Photos and Ice Skating were also free however these will be "up charges" for the public nights. Photos are up on Flickr, full report will be on my site later today. 7:00PM is Looney Tunes on Ice - "A Christmas Carol" adaption 7:20PM is "Illumination" Turning on all the million fairy lights at once, leading into the... 7:30PM Christmas Parade - Various floats, see pictures in link above 8:30PM is A Rocking Christmas Show - Christmas Carol Singalong These may be different/change on the public nights so dont take my word on it

I have never seen any Gold Coast theme park books... Maybe some Gold Coast history books might have a chapter or similar on theme parks...
