Holiday World 2015: 66 Days at Sea - Day 2

On May 19, 2014, Holiday World began releasing information about their 2015 expansion plans. They launched the teaser site 66DaysAtSea.com to give clues over the course of 66 days as to what the big announcement may be.  You can read more about the site here. We'll be highlighting each day's entry as well as providing our analysis of what we think the clues may be hinting at.

Day 2

Analysis

Let's look at today's entry:

• "The beauty of the ocean is indescribable."
• This certainly plays into the theory that the expansion will be a replacement for Giraffica.  With the station and mechanical systems still intact from the dismantled shoot-the-chutes ride, a water based attraction doesn't seem too far fetched.  With Hyena Falls now seemingly out of place, a new water ride would bridge the awkward void between Thanksgiving and Splashin' Safari.
• "..its strength and power is frightening to me."
• It sounds as though a thrill ride will be included in the expansion.  This seems to contradict the notion from Day 1 that this would be a family friendly ride.  Since this is the largest expansion in the park's history, it's not outside the realm of possibility that multiple attractions will be announced for 2015.
• "We will not see land again for many days."
• Hmmm.  Dark ride anyone?  Although I don't think you can ever have too many dark rides, this doesn't seem likely since the Thanksgiving section already has Gobbler Getaway.  With the land clearing near The Voyage, perhaps the "land" in this sentence is a reference to the station of a long and winding coaster that weaves throughout the woods, taking its passengers far from "land".

That's it for today.  Check back tomorrow for our analysis of Day 3.
