My wife and i spent our anniversary weekend at Cabana Bay and did blue man group and ate at emerils. We used alot of the tips and tricks you guys have put in your videos. Alot of the updates you saw in this video were done between the time we were there (jan 8th-10th) and when this video was done cuz when we were there the christmas tree was still up and the sign on the twister building and there wasnt all that new track on the hulk. We love watching your videos and hope to some day run into you guys at the parks. We are hooked on your channel now. Thanks for all the fun.

I am interested to see how they handle HHN this year. Without Twister queue (to walk through) or Disaster queue for a house, what are they going to do? Is the bathroom by Twister also blocked off? What about the gate that is used as a main entrance/exit for a lot of the houses that dumped you near the Twister bathrooms, is it blocked off as well? They also lost the HHN store they did last year which is disappointing since I really liked that idea. It seems like they keep losing important HHN space which makes me feel like we might be seeing a return of IoA this year. I always liked the concept of keeping both parks open and have them both connected with a long backstage scarezone. With J. K. now allowing Harry Potter to be open during HHN, it helps free up congestion that would have been caused on that small bridge plus they can keep the train going all night long without needing to scan tickets because both parks would be considered one during the event. Seems like a lot of plus to not only increase event capacity but also change up house locations and allow them to make even more houses and scarezones! Going to be hard to top last year!

I know when we went to dualing dragons last month it was nuts with all of that wanding and such the security guy said people were throwing stuff at one another because at one time we would go towards each other so people were throwing stuff at the other people in the other coaster and actually hurt someone. So now they do not sync them together and now we have to go through all of that crap to get on the ride it is a mess. Even if you have something tied on to you it has to go in a locker. We got the locker but my nephew had keys on a ring attached to his belt and still had to go put it in his locker. It is a mess.
