Jungala and SeaWorld
Apr 23, 07:35 AM by Graham Brooks

  The impressions of Jungala, now a few weeks after opening, have been very positive. People of all ages are finding things to do in the area. Many are surprisingly impressed with the Wild Surge drop tower and the air time that it provides.

And if you haven’t heard, it is pretty much now confirmed that SeaWorld will be receiving a Bolliger and Mabillard flying roller coaster in 2009. An official announcement is expected next month.

Server Problems
Apr 2, 05:50 PM by Graham Brooks

  Over the past couple days we have been experiencing some server issues. We have most of them under control at this point. A few things added recently have disappeared since a database backup was restored.

But the good news is that we back up in time for the opening of Jungala. Please be aware that most pages on the site are not currently working. We are working to resolve the issue.
