Dinosaurs Alive is very good.

I enjoyed it very much. It is very relaxing break from the rest of the park. I was amazed at how big some of those dinos are. I actually did it twice its worth the 5.00.

I agree, I thought it was very well done and informative and an awesome thing especially for families to enjoy together. Sad that Paddlewheel had to go but can't do anything about it now so I will say it was a cool thing!

You did it twice? Can't you stay in there as long as you want?


Enjoy the rest of your day at America's Rockin' Roller Coast! Ride On!

I never doubted you, Cedar Point.

I just watched the PointBuzz video from opening day. As I expected, it looks like things are a little on the cramped side, there were coaster supports in just about every video shot. However, I'm glad to hear good reports that people are enjoying it despite the proximity to all the overhead noise. The DA attraction at Kings Island it way off the beaten path and requires quite a long walk overall.

It's really not that noisy, and when the passovers occur they're (obviousl)y pretty fast.

You really don't notice the coaster overhead and everything is nicely integrated to the surrounding vegetation. The only obvious MF crossover gives you a really nice view of the ride that was unseen by guests before DA, so that is a pretty cool feature and photo opportunity.


I'd rather be in my boat with a drink on the rocks,
than in the drink with a boat on the rocks.

And you also have to try to see this thing from a child's perspective, which many here either haven't considered or just aren't trying. They don't care if there is a coaster support behind the dinosaur.


Promoter of fog.

What's with the dino's that heve their feet buried in rock? I don't get that. otherwise it's very nicely done.

As support to keep them standing up is my guess.

There are scenes depicting events like flash floods or dinosaurs being trapped in mud.

Science! (She blinded ME...)

I did it the day after Opening day and will do it again. I thought it was more for the young ones and I know my nephews would like it. The question is will their daddy take them this year? I want to go back through though because I'm not done taking pictures of Millennium Force in the background.

My daughter loved it. She very much enjoyed the "dig" site as well, or what I call the most expensive sandbox visit ever...but she had fun and that is what matters, until she is a few inches taller and I'll be able to ride coasters other than Woodstock's Express with her.

My friend and I took a walk through on Tuesday. We had dinner then decided to try it out. I was very impressed. The atmosphere was great and the vegetation was really nice and thick. I was impressed with how secluded some areas were. Having MF flying overhead wasn't that noticable, and like Pete said where you can see it the most gives a really cool view. The size of the Ruyangosaurus really blew me away. That thing was huge. I was expecting the T-rex to be the most impressive but that Ruyangosaurus had the T-rex beat.


We'll miss you MrScott and Pete
