I do.

Oh, I want to see the Island when it is new!!

And, as for typos, yours, Strangler Lewis, makes me laugh. {I can read a lot into your warning....}

I just made one {but fixed it} about going to the gym...I wrote about how it looked like fun going to the gym but for some reason I typed out guys....

Where was my mind at?

Aww, was I seen? Maybe it was a ghost...

I think I"m in agreement with Lisa on this. TSI wasn't thrilling to begin with and I think this adds abit to it. Beyond the BS of the Fort being gone, I enjoyed the little adds here and there. Of course my concern would be the goodies wearing out and needing TLC eventually - would they bother fixing it. So, seeing it now when things are working are a plus for me.

LOL on all the typos! I have to admit I haven't had any desire to visit the Island in years but I want to take missy over when we go in July! I love that it is a bit more wheelchair friendly, we'll pick a day when she doesn't need her chair as much to go so she can really enjoy it but it does make me happy that those children who have no option but their chairs can at least visit the island a bit easier now.

TSI has been one of my least favorite parts of the park. Having Boy with me has always been a challenge, avoiding the Island. It was easy when we had his dad with us, I could stay off and he would take Nick. I guess in June I will be taking him over and it sounds like I might even enjoy it.

We finally got a chance to check it out this weekend.

I give it a B-. Might have been a B or a B+, but the over exposure of pirate theming in general combined with actually hearing, "So says I, Davy Jones" on the island (I managed to hold back the waves of nausea) hurt the score.

But overall, they've got some nifty stuff on there. They could have done more, but what they did do was done well. Plus, it did have the one effect I was hoping for...it pulled that singing pirate show out of NOS. Yay!

Except that the singing Pirate Show is now broadcast all over New Orleans Square, replacing the jazzy area music that used to come from the riverfront speakers.

Bah.

You've got to be kidding?!?

I'm not usually one to complain at City Hall, but this might be something that prompts the trip.

Have they started the daily stage show on the island yet?

Not Afraid · 05-29-2007, 10:31 AM

Daily? I seems every few hours all of New Orleans becomes Pirate Town.
