IOA update: Grad Bash, Triceratops and more


Islands of Adventure is a fantastic theme park. Its theming has always amazed me. Unfortunately, until last year, it received little attention. Now, it's a different story. Let's see how the park looks, and what's new:

Grad Bash:



As every year, a lot of these things have popped up in the park, for Grad Bash:

Mythos is once again a bit moldy:


Triceratops Encounter is now back open (this photo was taken the day before it opened):



The old queue line looks very clean now:
