I honestly do not understand the obsession with water attractions as of late. SFGAm would he better off expanding Hurricane Harbor.

You would have to remove V2 and Yankee Clipper in order to make that fit.

What if you were to flip it 180. Have the station near Yankee Clipper and the launch like V2

I would assume the patio will connect to the pathway leading to the current Picnic Grove entrance. Similar to how the path next to logger's queue runs all the way to V2's alternate entrance by Go Karts.

^ I think it's possible since it's still on the map, but the building would for sure need to be expanded. I'd place my bets somewhere else

My guess is that it'll look more like this :lol:

On another note, I know there was no mention of this at NCC or anything, but could the antique photos place possibly become a gift shop for Joker? I mean, how profitable really is the place?

I'm seriously considering going up to South Road Park to take construction pics lol. Actually, I heard someone did it for TDK so it shouldn't be a problem.

Also, I believe Great Wolf Lodge sells day passes.

Phase 2 was more outdoor slides, Sun deck area, enclosing the U shape and putting a roof over that. Under the roof was supposed to be an adult swim up bar, tropical area/garden. Will have to see if I still have the pictures to see what else they had planned.

Having just gotten back from there(Even though I live 5 minutes away lol), I certainly think that it's time for some expansion. It really hasn't changed at all since it opened, and I would really like to see some more stuff for the water park. A single atomic bowl isn't going to cut it!

By the way, I said I just got back from there. Which means I'm able to take pictures of things not visible from public streets...
