Posted: Tue Mar 18, 2008 4:34 am Post subject: Hard Rock Park Sneak Peak Photo Trip Report |
|
|
So yesterday, I took a trip to Hard Rock Park to do the awesome sneak peak VIP tour. It was totally worth it. I have to say that this park will have one of the best atmosphere I've ever been too, the employees of Hard Rock were extremely friendly, including the parking guys. They still have tons of work to do still, but they are really close. ONLY a month! Enough talk, let the pictures do the talking and drooling.
- Reminder they didn't let us go to the back of the park due to the frequent construction, so I don't have as many pictures as I wanted, but do enjoy!
I think I'm at the right spot..
Yep, I'm at the right spot!
Entrance Plaza
The GATEWAY to heaven
Follow that white sign!
Merchandise, of the many few shops they have.
Slogans and Sayings, around the park you will see.
Guitar awesomeness
Closer View
Side View
The Plaza, where you enter the park from.
One of the many rides at HRP. This one in Cool Country.
Massive Theater where Ice Skating Shows will be in this building.
Again.
Fun Interactive cow for the kids. He talks to you and BEWARE! When he "utters," beware his "udders"!
Again, another interactive station for the kids instead with water jets and wheels. You will see all kinds of interactive things for the kids to do.
Eagles: Life in the Fast Lane. The renamed Vekoma mine ride, announced yesterday Morning.
Logo!
Again, water playground for the kids.
What do I see in the background
Led Zeppelin in all her glory!
Amazing
Just NOOO Comment needed.
Second Loopage!~
-
Across the Lagoon
Maximum RPM! Across the lagoon.
Slippery When Wet! - Don't mind the guitar
Great statues you will see around the park.
Who doesn't like signage?
Again.
Tiki Gods will take your SOLE!
You will see some of these around the park, but mostly in restaurants.
They are a tribute to the past away rock legends
Interactive Guitar! Again, for the kids. When you strum the water under the guitar like strings, it will play a song. Not telling what song though
Close-up.
Section I didn't get to go see due again to constant construction.
There's still tons of things to do still, but I'm not going to give away the other amazing information that will be happening around HRP.
I will tell you that the lagoon will have an nightly lazer/water jet show featuring the massive guitar.
Well thanks for viewing and reading!
-Ryan

| Thank you for this trip report!!! Zepplin looks incredible. I love the white and blue as it sits on the lagoon. The park itself looks really nice. Can't wait to visit. I will have to plan a trip out that way. |

Looks fantastic. I can't believe this is a TOTALLY new theme park, going will be a completely different experience than other parks.
Which coaster was renamed for the Eagles?
EDIT* Nevermind, figured it out.
One thing though. Being in Myrtle Beach, this Park is going to be PACKED all the time! There probably wont be a good day to go the whole opening season without having to wait at least 45 minutes to ride one of the coasters.

May 9th.
Led Zep looks awsome! It towers over the other rides.
And about the name change. The logo looks cool, but I'm still not a fan of the name.
Man I've got to go to this park sometime!  _________________ Coaster Count: 91 (78 steel, 13 wooden)
