Title: Looney Toons Seaport?
Post by: redlafrance on May 11, 2009, 05:52:45 PM: Ok, I'm sure someone probably has mentioned this before, but what happened to the Sea plane and boat rides across from that crazy foam ball building. I was sitting on a bench Sunday enjoying the sunshine waiting for the kids attacking their dad with foam balls and when he came out asked me if I noticed two rides were gone! ???

Post by: coastermom on May 13, 2009, 12:34:03 PM: The train in National Park was closed with no sign as well on Saturday . That is the train that looks like a stage coach right ?? I was pretty sure that is done for too . :(
