If you're thinking the whole funnel slide is done, that's not true. The funnel ITSELF is done, but they still need to build the tubes which connect to the funnel. And unless they're using an existing pool for the new slide, they will need to build that as well.

They still need to put in an entrance for it, but other than that, it's pretty much done. Heh, maybe this year it will rain a lot and the palm trees will survive!

Just checked the webcam and they have just put the last slide piece in.

They should be filling the splash pool today.

EDIT: The construction bridge over the lazy river is gone now.

it looks like they still need to hook up the pipes to the top of the slide though and finish up the cement walkway up to the stairs

The Tornado was fun, the line was moving rather quickly, but it will be long, really long in the mid-summer.

Hm..I MIGHT go to HH next time I go. But I don't really like water parks, so that's a pretty big might.


Nice to see Tornado open and props to GAm for opening it on time :D
