Another water park opening in Orlando

From orlandosentinel.com:

Gatorland will postpone the grand opening of its new water play area for at least a week as it modifies the area’s design.

The small attraction on South Orange Blossom Trail had planned to open the area, called Gator Gully Splash Park, on Saturday, but spokeswoman Michelle Harris said last-minute modifications to the water-flow system forced a postponement.

“They want to make sure the area meets the maximum fun factor for all the kids who will play in it,” Harris said.

Harris said Gatorland would have extra activities this weekend to compensate for the postponement decision, and it will go ahead with an invitation-only opening party scheduled for tonight.

I’m embarrassed to say I live in Orlando and have never been to Gatorland. I guess this gives me another reason to visit.

    I’ve never been to Gatorland either, nor do I have any reason to go. ;) This doesn’t change that for me.

    So it’s a Gatorland water park? Does that mean LIVE gators swimming in the wave pool?
    Might be a volatile mix. :-)

    You guys really ought to go to Gatorland. It is a classic Orlando attraction that predates Disney
