[Hatetofly]

Still have not seen it! Been rained out including today and possibly tomorrow a total of 4 times!!!!

I'm so determined to watch this, omg. Both times I've gone since its opening I haven't had the time. But soon I will watch it in its entirety and in the best freaking spot I can find nestled right up to those fountains.

Where I watched it was a great spot, with fountains on both sides of you and a screen directly facing you. It's the circular area down by the water in the park across from KidZone. As a plus it was very uncrowded down there and you could easily get right up to the railing at the lagoon, but we did get sprayed by the fountains lol.

^Yes, the two spots I love are the lower levels of both Battery Park and Central Park.

So they cancel it due to rain? Is it any rain or heavy rain? How about wind?

I like you.

We have a major tropical storm spinning in the gulf... we are on the east of it which in this hemisphere is where all the severe rain is. It is gentle one moment... and screeching rain the next... all of central florida is under Tornado threat tonight due to the outer spinning bands. At least one person is dead today. Tornadoes make Hurricanes seem like kittens.

Having seen the show at least 10+ times now I've created a little map showing the average crowds for the show.

Red - Busy
Yellow - Moderate
Green - Quiet

^ I have seen it 4 times, and from what I saw when I went, that map is very accurate.

That moderate area in Central Park is just the best place to watch it, in my opinion. Seen it every time from there.

Agreed! That is where I have watched it every time.

As do I. I've seen it from all over the lagoon now and it is my favorite place.

Every time I stay to watch it...it rains.

Welcome to Florida.

 

[John321]

When I saw it I sat under Richter's burgers and saw everything perfectly but the giant fog spinner they do during random scenes, but you could see the screens and the pyro and the entire lagoon fountains too!

 

[Teebin]

oops, wrong thread. sorry.

 

[Hatetofly]

Finally saw the show tonight and I loved it. Really a lot better than I was expecting from seeing videos online. Looking forward to seeing the plusses they add over the coming months. Next time I go I will take some photos of the actual show. I didn't tonight since I wanted to take it all in. I did snag a few from before and after the performance.

Great pic.

 

[Teebin]

^ Excellent picture hateto! Assisted me thinks by a wee bit of reflective silt in the water perhaps? I wonder where that came from... creates a cool effect!
