These are some of my photos that I took April 9th. They show the grand opening of Graeters Ice Cream Shop, and Happy Days Diner. I also take you up close and personal with the brand new Italian Job construction site.

Great Pics Dane. It's great to see pics of IJST upclose like that.

Yeah, I just love the third one over on the second page. . Great IJ:ST photos.

Great pics, Dane. I'm kinda upset I missed the tour. If I'm hearing right, it was at 1:30 or so...meaning I was on Vortex. ARGH!

it was at 1:30. There were maybe 10-15 people on the tour TOPS!

Thanks for the pics Dane! Glad to see the decals put on the cars (they look nice now)

It was a private tour for ACE members and members of the media.

PKI needs a Chipotle

What private tour?!?!? I was there for the walk-back and never even heard of a tour!!!!!!!!!!!

I want answers, people!!!!!!!!!

That's a lot of pictures of Happy Days and Greater's. Are there any rides in this park?

We decided that since we already have a lot of pictures of the rides already on the site, that we would now put the main focus on the special events. I mean, you can only take so many pictures of Delirium!!

Those are some awesome pics. I unfortunately live all the way in VA, and won't be visiting PKI till later this summer. I can't wait to experience IJST! Let's just say that now I'm offically pumped for the 2005 coaster season! Thanks for taking such wonderful photos Dane!

Great pics. Did anyone get to meet Marion Ross? I want to know who the hottie behind her is in this pic hottie

So do we go over the doors at the Mini's, or do we get to open the doors?

We are supposed to be opening the doors...cars feature opening doors and lights...

Question about about the fire...were there any Sound Effects as of yet or is that it, or can i just no hear the explosion sounds?

That fire look kind of cheap if you ask me.

Question about about the fire...were there any Sound Effects as of yet or is that it, or can i just no hear the explosion sounds?

The fire didn't really have any explosion noises that I could hear, but it did make the eerie hissing noise that a burning gas line would make, so it sounds pretty cool regardless. Now the helicpoter on the other hand... I don't know if it's the actual choppers or a sound effect, but it sounded VERY realistic.
