Thanks for the pics. It's great to see Flying Wave up again. I've missed the 3 times I've been to the park this season. It is almost always our last ride, because it is right near the exit and rarely has a long line.

That is too bad about the security. I was really hoping to see Security in full force this season around the park, it is doesn't seem that way so far. They need to be prepared for the huge summer rush of people coming into the park in the next few months.

Also, they need to better enforce the smoking rule. They should have signs around the park telling people were they are. Right now, they aren't in the most populated areas of the park. People aren't going to find them if there is no direction to where they are located.

On a last note, didn't Shapiro say that the souvenir maps were going to be free?

Great shot of ET next to RT by the pine tree (I didn't mean to rhyme :P ). I love the bull on the front. Do you think some idiot will be able to reach foward and pull the bull off by horns???

Yeah, the Security situation is disappointing me. If they want to keep it a family atmosphere, they need to crack down on offensive clothes, public drinking (outside the designated patio areas) and smoking in prohibited areas.

Sunday was the worst I've seen this season. There were girls walking around in bikinis, guys with their shirts off, people walking around all over with the glasses of beer, and more smokers in one day than I've seen the whole season. While the smoking and clothing policies are the park's, the beer thing is State Law, and should be enforced strictly. They could lose their liquor license and it creates a "non-family" atmosphere.

The maps are free at the Parking Toll, but if you want extras, they're $5.00 each in the shops.

Amazing pics. It really is too bad about the lack of enforcing park rules, but if Shapiro gets wind of it, it will change quickly.
