Saturday - April 13th, 2013
It is nice to see so much construction and maintenance occurring all
around the park and outside of it. Big Wave Racer has gone
vertical in Hurricane Harbor, while construction of the Safari Off Road
Adventure is underway both inside the theme park as well as inside the
Safari itself. The park is really looking good (less a few too
many snack food ads) and things are shaping up to be another great
season!
