New ride... place your bets!

Brian Short

The webcam is up today.  As of 9:15 this morning, we have the beach cam.  Can anyone make out any part of the new ride in this one.  Lemme know.  Here's the address to the pic.

Its 9:29 right now, and it says all webcams are down for maintenance.  I checked last night too and it said the same thing.  I wonder why I can't see it?

They don't have a link to it on the site, but you can still see it by going to the URL.

I've been saving the pics of the webcam to my computer.  If you switch between the pics, you can see obvious movement on the beach.  One noticeable thing is the crane that's moving.  YUP...I said crane!  If you want me to email you the pics I have so far, just email me or IM me and I will send them to you.  Until then, later guys!  :-)

Thanks for the link, Brian!

It is up and very, very current as of 9:59 EST.

Best of all--look at the DISTANCE this cam is from the Giant wheel and Space Spiral....you don't need a cam that far away to capture a 270-foot ride, do you?

Hmmmmmm...

Hey, no problem!  I don't know why the cam is so far away, but I hope that we get complete coverage the entire winter months.  Maybe, closest to us is going to be spike or end of the hill or something.  I wish there was a zoom function too!  oh well, better than nothing!

Whoops!

Yeah, that's the existing 'Beach Cam'...nothing new.

Oh well.  It would have been nice to dream for more than 3-4 minutes--but that's the immediacy of the internet for ya.

Hey folks.. I was playing around with the series of beach images and deciding to make it into something everyone can enjoy:

Careful ye of low bandwidth... this is a 1.2 meg file!

Let it download fully before watching...

Here's a bit smaller one for the bandwidth impaired & impatient:

It's not quite as nice quality-wise, but it's still intelligible.
