I refuse to let this thread die. It has been way too informative and entertaining.

Here is a unique take on the new slide. It makes you feel like you're there! (Ignore the message about the video being moved or deleted)



DW kept saying I was too old to go on the slide, they'd never let me on. Ha! I showed her, several times. In fact there were just as many adults as kids on the slide. It sure was hard staying upright for the ride. The slide has great water flow at the top which produces a nice current at the end. One note, don't wear regular jeans on the slide. DS couldn't find his suit so he opted to wear shorts. He got stuck halfway down and wouldn't ya know I didn't have my camera that time.

Here are some more pics.

That looks awesome! My last trip to the Fort was about a week before they opened the slide, so I haven't been down it yet. Will get to on Thanksgiving Day, but until then this will keep me going!

I know we have seen this before but has anyone found out what it is there for?

I know it's a hose reel like those used on some fire trucks to hold a hundred feet or so of 1" hose. Didn't an earlier picture show it up close with housekeeping or maintenance painted on the side? I wonder if eventually they will put the hose on it and use it to wash down the concrete around the pool.

I think you're right.

Here's the earlier photo that stpetedisney dad was thinking of:

This looks like a hose reel. It seems to be bolted in place. I have never seen a hose on it.

Here is something interesting that DznyRulz caught in one of his photos:

It looks like the "leak" in the tower has moved! You can see the old hole to the left of the one that the water is coming out of in Chris' photo. The water stream used to go out into the pool, now it kind of hits the pool edge. I don't know why they repositioned it, but they did.
