I like the fact that most of the stars in the playbill are NHL players.

Great TR as per the usual, Sir.

^Das Boot is one of my favorite movies, that's why I like the poster. Looks like there's something for everyone!

I seriously need to get back to Florida again to get my hands on some of that stuff.

I think you can get it at USH too. There is a Quik-E-Mart there now as well. As I always say, Florida should be avoided as much as possible!

I keed!

Hey Erik,

The main question that has yet to be asked, was the Moose Juice stand open? One has to love the Moose Juice!

BTW, do you remember how much the DUFF was?

GO DAWGS!

Hey Everyone! Ran across your site thru screamscape.com and decided to join! I happen to work at the above mentioned theme park and just wanted to throw in my 2 cents. The Former Vampyr area is under construction due to the new Starbucks they are building in that old arcade area. Hopefully it will be done before christmas but who knows :-)

As for Dueling Dragons, Harry Potter will be taking over HOPEFULLY in 2009! I am excited to see something new and I think it will be an amazing venture for UO!!!! And for the record I am VERY secure in my Harry Potter Nerd-ness!!! I think transforming the area into Hogsmeade will be so cool! I cant wait for all the little shops and things! How sad am i ??!!??!! Oh.. the ice slide wont ever be back unfortunately... too many parents not supervising their kids and too many sliced open faces/hands/clothing due to not going on the slide right. The Duff energy drinks and the Flaming Moes are 2.95 each. They both tasted like red bull/ rock star type flavor. My mom said it tasted like carbonated childrens tylenol!! That made me laugh!! Thanks for giving me a vine!!!!

I have been away from online forums for awhile now, and with my FL trip looming next year, wanted to see what was up with the Wizarding changes! Of course TPR is the first place I came!

Erik - thank you for that awesome TR! What kind of camera are you using? Those DD shots are amazing! I cant wait. I have a new toy to bring with me on my trip! (Nikon D40x) Now that I have finally conquered all of SFGA, including the now infamous Chiller (of course only one side due to the never working Batman side) but minus KK, still a chicken...lol - Hulk is FIRST on my list! (my last visit to TPR, I was still contemplating Nitro! :airtimer:

)

Cant wait to hear more about IOA and US, and all the changes! Keep up the GREAT work!

I use a Sony Cyberhshot DSC-T33. It is now several years old, so you can find a better camera than mine.

As much as I enjoy Islands of Adventure, it does not need more gift shops. How about another B&M?
