ANIMAL KINGDOM
-The Maps stand had little flyers about the Picnic in the Park thing.
-Park Crowds were medium to light, pretty crowded before the Parade, but vanished shortly after.
-Safaris was actually open until park closing (7PM). Don't see that every day!
-So while you guys like to talk Yeti (He was in B-show, with several Red Spots on him making him more visible, added for this downtime) I finally got to experience the very expensive "Added Capacity" mode for the summer I tried to warn about last summer, but was defended staunchly and it's just as bad as I thought. It may look and feel the same for guests, but I hate this "Summer" mode that let's them run 5 trains by having Lift B slow down in the second half of carrying the train up, and holding the trains at Broken Trestle and Shadow of the Yeti for a few extra seconds, ending in a forced cascade at Unload. The added capacity of one extra train really isn't worth the cascading and slightly altering the careful timing of the show. I hate it. Please turn it off immediately. When some around here were saying "Oh, it's a plus! They'll only use it in the summer!", I was right when I said that money SHOULD BE spent on getting those parts for Waterfall 2 they cannibalized to keep Waterfall 1 running. I can't wait until Winter, Everything at Everest gets fixed and runs better in Winter...
-Steam was working, though the side fan vents still aren't. See above.
-In Good Himalayan Escapes news though, some of the strands of Prayer Flags that had been taking a beating at Broken Trestle have been replaced. Thanks!
-Wait at Countdown actually said "0 Minutes." Nice! (Course, it wasn't. It actually was quite longer than usual, maybe 15 minutes.)
-Rode in the newly added back row of Kilimanjaro Safaris. You get wicked air time on that thing!
-Safaris was also a walk on at 6. Love it!
Alright, on to the pictures!
Enjoy!
