I was right behind you. Second to last dome carousel. I felt bad because I brought friends for their first ride ever. Lovely bit of time hanging around. At least we were almost perpindicular at the time.

So disappointing when this happens! I mean, I'll take a ride breakdown any day, but please don't happen when I'm with friends for their first ride! We were perpendicular as well.
It would be interesting to breakdown right at the Whomping Willow scene.

Same here. I've only had 2 regular and one frozen from a cart. I really need to see what the HH Frozen is all about since the cart's was chuncks of ice.
DC views of HE track
Do we know or suspect if they are going to extend the big green wall (hopefully something much better) along the side of DC facing the backstage area?
Just seems likean over-site if they do not do something since the train (track/tunnel/monorail something will be visible from DC) will extend beyond the IOA park boundary in a pretty big way visually, more so in my opinion than phase 1 by itself.

How about we tear down that ugly green wall and actually use thematic elements! :thumbs:
I am all for that as well, I know there was the wish list of enclosing DC in a mountain or something which I don't see as being possible. I threw out there the green wall since that is there but did not mean to imply (though re-reading I can see that I did) another green wall. I guess I would have better asked, is there going to be something to visually block the backstage area/track going to HPLondon from riders on DC whatever form that visual block may take?
Thank you BriMan. I have been an AP since the previews for IOA (the park, not WWOHP) but living in Jacksonville I do not get down there as much as I like. You and the staff do a terrific job of keeping us all informed but also with enough teasing of information and reassurance when you can't provide details to ensure the enthusiasm for the projects stays high over the full construction cycle and beyond.
Currently near Beauclerc (between Baymeadows and San Marco) near Bowles. I lived in both in OP (well just on the Duval side of the line) and Arlington when I was an eLearning developer for AOL when they were still on the northside and grew up in Middleburg with a few different spots between (my dad was in the Navy).

Geez, you were all over too
Just look at Middleburg now vs 15-20 years ago :stunned:So it seems plausible that Ollivanders at Hogsmeade will definitely stay after some info I just got. Sounds very cool and will be the next "thing" people are waiting 3 hours in line to get upon opening. Very exciting stuff that's actually already well underway but you'll never notice.
