SeaWorld update: "BeLEAVING" and more (PART 1)

Hello, and welcome to a special SeaWorld Orlando update! Why special? Because it's the first SeaWorld update on OTPN to be so big that we have to divide it in 2 parts! It's also special because we cancelled our original Hollywood Studios update to check out SeaWorld's Believe, before they shut it down (they may =y close it down as soon as the end of February, so at least we're prepared!).

Anyway, with all this being said, let the update begin! (I know, it sound too Disney-like... sorry.):

WFTV was on scene for the new announcement of "ONE OCEAN":

Great entrance:

Hmmm... This must be the low season!:

Yes, it is!:

Shamu:

Banners for the "Bands, Brew & BBQ" are all over the park, and they look nice!:

If you notice, the first boat is called "Journey II" and the second one "Atlantis"... Can you spot the reference?:

Nice view:

Some Manta pictures as usual (how can you NOT take photos of this great coaster?):

They did a masterpiece with this:

The Pretzel loop:

Only 5 minutes. Not bad:

Where's everybody?!:

Flamingos:

I love this photo! I think it's one of our best photos yet:

This area near manta is constantly closed, probably for security reasons:

The Seaport Pizza has got some very good pizza:

The Guest Assistance had a lot of work to do!:

Voyagers is the best restaurant in SeaWorld for both the theming and the food:

And this... This IS GREAT!! I love Chipstix!!!:

Pets Ahoy! New sign? Who knows!:

I can spot work down there!:

It's for the re-opening of "Dine with Shamu"!:

This sign will change soon. "Believe" me....

Construction of the booth for this year's "Bands, Brew & BBQ" event:

They have a very nice color:

Some where still white:

Is this tower new?:

New railings across the lake:

Dine with Shamu walls:

Coming soon!!:

Some "over-the-wall" pictures. No Dumbo, of course:

Thanks for viewing part 1 of this huge SeaWorld Orlando update!
