Busch Gardens Sesame Street

We have some friends up in Virginia who just emailed us some information concerning the Sesame Street expansion that’s do to come to the park on April 3rd. We are so exited about the whole deal that we are actually ready to plan a visit to Virginia to visit with our friends when this thing opens. It’s the news we have always wanted to hear, while Busch Gardens has been primarily dedicated to adult entertainment they are now throwing something in for the kids.

We visit Busch Gardens on a yearly bases but we have been leaving the kids behind because of all the great rides that they are to young to ride. Now we have the opportunity to bring them along so that they can enjoy the Sesame Street part of the theme park. This is a great way to get the kids involved in the parks entertainment while letting us continue to enjoy the parks entertainment.

There are going to be so many cool new rides, this is going to be a rival with Disney Worlds Fantasy Land Expansion. Come to think of it Islands of Adventure is putting in the Harry Potter zone also, all the theme parks are expanding; it’s a great year to look forward to.

The Dine with Elmo is supposed to be a hit restaurant in the theme park. Kids are going to have the opportunity to enjoy well… kid food whole being entertained by Elmo. The Sesame Street themed restaurant is supposed to feature all the main characters in costume. There is also supposed to be a new 4-D movie called “Lights, Camera, Imagination.” This is supposed to be a fun filled adventure with the characters from Sesame Street, and should be much like the Shrek 4-D at Universal. The Forest of Fun is going to be a full sized forest full of Sesame Street characters, holding true to the “Gardens” part of Busch Gardens.

We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of the Sesame Street expansion, and are planning a visit. I’m not sure we will make opening day but you can bet well be there.
