Thanks for the notice, Dan. I wonder what's going in there?
I didn't bother much with anything in there. The first time I did, but then it was boring to me, as a solo adult. I'm sure the kids liked it, though.
This took us by surprise last week. Our oldest DD bounded off the ride and looked a little bewildered to find the whole place empty. It was the first time we were able to get out of there in under 20 minutes.
I noticed that the other day it was gone. I was mentioning it on the ride to an out of town guest and when we got down there it was out of sight behind the boards.
The items there were sparce, and always busy. Even on slow days I was not able to do anything without staking out a spot like a vulture. Some displays were not even working.
It needed a lot of improvement. Hopefully it will be replaced by something other than a gift shop.
