WillMontu Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 I went down to Orlando today with Erik Johnson to get some of the credits in Orlando I missed. More pictures to come. A lot of parks in the southeast are TPR approved. Donkey was here today for some photo ops. He had a lot of fans though, so we didn't want to wait. Another bad shot of me. I'm not good at posing for the camera It's closing soon, but not worth the 35 minute wait. What happened to the time capsule? The "second gate" of Universal Studios Just like some coasters though, it needs some maintenance They've still got that coaster simulator arcade game. Anyone recognize that SLC? We got a lot done in a few hours I had never ridden this ride before. In the Florida heat, it was fun to intentionally get a bit wet The ride has a switch track, so it could either be a mobius or a dual track. How many credits is this Jeff? Never before seen angle of Hulk It's no Peoplemover/TTA, but it's still a fun ride The Seuss Sky Trolley finally opened after six years of being dormant Erik does his mandatory menu check Who's paying them to do this? IOA almost has as many trash cans as a Cedar Fair park. The difference? They are well themed so they don't stand out The Dragons are looking good now with the paint job and the clean-up Most of the effects were working today First to ride JP today. We had the boat to ourselves, never mind the stupid look on my face Upon exiting the ride, we were told by a ride-op that "this is a kid's ride" though they had no problems with us riding at that time of day. One small coaster for an enthusiast, one giant CHA-CHING for a credit whore! Erik and I both got this coveted credit, and we did not have to "borrow" kids to do so At 8:55, the back of the park still wasn't open, so we took a quick ride on Spiderman, which was a walk-on, even through the regular queue Hi Derek First park of the day, IOA Time: 8:45 Of course, I end up paying for the gas! The day starts out with Erik filling up the tank.
WillMontu Posted September 25, 2006 Author Posted September 25, 2006 Part 2 - Sea World and Old Town There is also a Dragon Wagon, but we ended up just going home instead. This one does not appear to be powered, so it counts! Credit denied! Next stop was Old Town to get the Windstorm credit We went back to Kraken for a front-seat ride, and the line had shortened significantly with the second train The aquarium in the flood. What would happen if too many ACErs stood on it? Part of the "coaster" part of Journey to Atlantis. Kraken's eggs. We couldn't reach them We'll just test it with this ride-op and if he survives, the train's okay One of the ride ops told us initially that the other trains were being repaired. If it's not repaired yet, why are they bringing it out? OMG! There's track missing! We were on the next train when the train stalled on the brake run, leaving riders out in the heat. "Sorry, but your stuffed animal is not allowed to ride" "But they can do it in RCT" The queue Capacity on Kraken was terrible today. They had 2-3 ride-ops and a single train If Robb was a donkey... The Clydesdales were out today The long train New credit! I haven't been to SeaWorld in a few years Besides the fact that my fries were cold, this was actually quite nice for a McDonalds I wanted to go to Burger King for lunch, but Elissa's favorite place will do
