I guess someone over at Themeparkreview took some great ariel shots of CP. http://themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=49788 There looks to be contruction on MF Island? I could maybe see them taking out CCMR or SRF and heading a coaster onto MF island. Just a thought. It will probably be something for 2010. Isn't that Kinzel's last year? They will probaby try to make something big that year especially since we have pretty much got nothing for 2 years.

I am glad I am taking time off from going to CP as I rally wont be missing anything except maybe the new Pagoda cam, LOL. And I also feel so sorry for the CP fanboys that expect a new ride every year. I sense a huge drop in attendance this year. _________________ GL's demise was caused by one mans foolish greed.

Improvement to the park itself is always good. Did you guys hear about the new fountain coming this year? It's nothing exciting but they are replacing the fountain on the main midway with one of those huge fountains that people can run through. _________________ Cedar Point: The BEST amusement park on the planet for 12 years in a row! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dm1jeYY0yEo

Isnt it great how CF can reuse old stuff and call it new again? And I thought GL wasn't worth going to because it didn't have anything worthwhile, what do I know. _________________ GL's demise was caused by one mans foolish greed.

They just got a lot of really nice RELIABLE! coasters for dirt cheap, so they didn't have to pay full retail for it! At least GL will live on in certain rides, even though 98% of the people don't even know they are used rides and are from another park. _________________ Katie

Coasterdad, I'd still be a CP fanboy if I'd been at the park (or any park) in the last 6 years.  Thank God I'm out of that ugly phase. But then again, since Dick Kinzel didn't run off with my wife, kill my dog or run my truck off the road, I'm not going to wish death on the guy, like Doubleloop has.  Man, your life must suck to wish death on a guy. _________________ I don't like a certain company so everything they do MUST be wrong, even if it's right.  And that makes me look like a bigger fool.

Many people think it is time for Mr. Kinzel to move on to another job or retirement, including a number of large Cedar Fair unitholders.

White water landing replaced another flume Shoot the Rapids in 1982 I believe, and last to 2005 when it was removed for the over hyped maverick. _________________ Confidentiality is telling one person at a time.
