May 22, 2010 Update...

The first 18 photos feature Six Flags Hurricane Harbor Water Park and its newest attraction, TORNADO, opening to the public on Saturday, May 29, 2010:

First, lets take a look at some overview shots:





Now we'll delve into the details of TORNADO as it nears completion:













It looks as though the park has quite a bit of finishing touches to complete before the Media Day event on May 27th, though I have no doubt they will pull this off without a hitch....

And last up on our tour of Hurricane Harbor, the "Taak It Eez Ee Creek's" first major traffic jam of the year:


Now for some general areas of the theme park. Not a bad crowd today, with many buses:




Saw Mill Log Flume:


Bizarro floor-less coaster:



And last but not least, Six Flags Great Adventure's "Bone Yard" of defunct rides from yesteryear....See if you can spot any that you remember riding:




Thanks for Flying along and as always, I hope you've enjoyed the view from above !!!

Tornado parts in greater detail:



Now let's take a look at Great Adventure Theme Park. Have fun spotting anything NEW, as the only thing I can find is the work being performed on Twister. Two cranes look to have the ride dismantled....







This photo shows the two cranes working on Twister (center):





A portion of Prospertown Lake adjacent to Great Adventure; this is where the Water Shows are staged as well as the barges for the Fireworks:
