[ejud]

Hi!

Very early Friday, I got up and headed down to UNI/IOA for the 7-9 am (!!!) passholder preview of the new long awaited High in the Sky Seuss Trolley Ride at Seuss Landing in Islands of Adventure! My report with link to photos is up in my blog, http://iJud.blogspot.com

Enjoy!

Enjoyed the pics!! So...do the cars rock or bounce or what? The track looked kind of wavy in some places. Just curious!!

Hi!

Glad you enjoyed the pics! I enjoyed the ride! hehehehee...

Crazymama, you are correct- that's way too long! Get going girl!

Donnaleah, the rule in Seuss Landing is no straight lines! And they have done a pretty good job of it, though I did discover one short straight on the track outside the station. The cars themselves have no independant movement, ala Indy Jones at DL or Dinosaur at AK, but the during the run the speed varies quite noticably independant of the up and down of the track. And there are four seperate soundtracks that go along with it, two for each side. I know I heard three of them, and possibly all four, but can't distincly remember as I wasn't thinking in those terms during the first two runs. I do remember one of the soundtracks for the inside run was a wondeful "seuss" type voice (as in the narrator for the animated TV specials) doing the Seuss Alphabet and that was very cool, and quite often tied to some sight you were seeing,, such as Greeen Eggs and Ham restaurant or Sneetches Beach and the fellow swimming/fishing therein.
