Yeah I just saw that about channel 5, but Carlos do you know what channels will be doing that so I can record it before I go to school.

On the news they went behind the scenes and showed clean-up work on Columbia, they showed them making the new yankee clipper sign, they showed some signs including the old Fort Fun sign and a reporter got to ride Columbia. They also showed some Marriott footage and construction photos.

Ahhh, that little thing was really cool. It got me REALLY hyped up.

This is scaring me, but I keep forgetting that I'm going to SF tomorrow. I'm thinking that it's just gonna be a normal boring Saturday, heh.

Can anyone post the footage or give me a link to a web sight that has it. I live too far away to get any coverage about the park.

I was going to. But since it's suppose to rain the entire day, I highly doubt it now. Really sucks, because my next chance to go isn't until the 14th of next month.

^You might want to check NBC news' website since it did air last night around 10:12. Jon Revelle pretty much summed it up with what they showed and you guys are right, it really hyped me up too, but since i'm not there right now, it was sort of a downer. :?
