Check Out The New Manta Ride At Sea World

Seaworld Orlando has a new ride, The Manta it has just opened, and is available to the public. I watched the clip, and it is a roller coaster, over water. You will feel like you are really riding on a Manta. If you are like me, and swimming with a real Manta Ray is really not your thing, this awesome roller coaster is the next best thing, and it is only available at Seaworld Orlando.

Seaworld has a special promotion going on right now. If you buy a ticket into Seaworld, you get a free pass to Aquatica, or Busch Gardens FREE! Trust me, if you have ever priced theme parks, this is an awesome deal. Plus Seaworld Orlando, is a very close drive to all places in Florida, plus surrounding states, such as Georgia. Right in the middle of the state, on the East Coast, it is readily accessible to everyone.

We had every intentions of visiting Seaworld this Spring, but family emergencies prevented it. I hope this deal sticks around for a while, for when we can go next Spring. I will keep my fingers crossed. I know my husband, and son would love the new Manta ride. My daughter is too small, but Seaworld has so many other great things to do, she will never be bored.

If you are planning a trip to Florida, be sure to check out Seaworld Orlando. You can not beat the free ticket offer, and a brand new rollercoaster to boot.

This Could Be A Cool Fieldtrip

I wish they would give more notice for these events, so I could plan appropriately. My son would absolutely love to go to this Video Game Tournament Otronicon @ Orlando Science Center He loves his video games, and they actually can be useful in learning, if you apply them correctly.



The Otronicon Video Game Tournament, is being held in Orlando, FL from January 16-20, 2009. It is open for school trips, and group trips on the 21st-23rd. Pricing is reasonable at 17 dollars, for adults, and 12 dollars for children under the age of 12. If you happen to be an OSC member, you will get in for free. This tournament will be held, at the Orlando Science Center.

Some of the activities that will be taking place, include: video game tournaments with Rock Band, Wii Fitness, Guitar Hero just to name a few. There will also be a wedding performed. That is right, a Halo Wedding will be performed of two people who met through gaming. Pretty neat, huh? For full details on all the events you can go to http://www.otronicon.org/

If you are a Playstation, Wii, or other video game player, this would be a cool Tournament to attend. Be sure to save the date, and make plans now to attend. If you do get to go, please come back, and share your experience with all of us.
