Lo bueno, lo malo y lo bello

Tenemos una buena noticia. Estamos haciendo las renovaciones necesarias a los muelles de los botes cisne del lago Eola. La mala noticia es que tenemos suspender los alquileres de botes para hacer las remodelaciones. Los botes de cisne del lago Eola no atenderán desde el 28 de febrero. El municipio estará reemplazando el desgastado muelle con un muelle más grande que acomodará nuestra flota ampliada de 12 botes.  También hará más fácil embarcar y desembarcar de los botes de cisne. Se espera que su construcción finalice en abril. Esperamos verlo en nuestro nuevo muelle para que disfrute nuevamente la belleza de Lake Eola. 


Apoyar a negocios pequeños es bueno para la digestión

Sería imperdonable si no le contamos sobre Nikki’s Place, uno de los lugares más históricos y sabrosos de Orlando donde se preparan recetas sureñas de antaño. 

El chef Nick Aiken, Jr. ha sido parte de Nikki’s Place desde 1949, cuando se le conocía como Roser’s Restaurant. La dueña, Roser Mae Jones vio a Nick, de 10 años, caminando por la calle y le dijo que parecía que necesitaba un empleo. Desde aquel día, Nick vivió y respiró en ese restaurante, el cual era un popular lugar de reunión para la comunidad negra. 
 
Nick y su familia oficialmente compraron el edificio en 1999 y aunque le dieron el nuevo nombre Nikki’s Place, en honor a su hija, las recetas transmitidas por la Sra. Jones todavía se usan hasta el día de hoy. Aunque el restaurante es pequeño, sirve a todos los estratos sociales de la ciudad y a menudo tiene una fila en la puerta y los pedidos para llevar vuelan del mostrador. Nick se enorgullece de reunir a las personas con su comida y su dedicación y en asegurar que quien entre por las puertas de su restaurante se sienta bienvenido. Visite Nikki’s Place en 742 Carter Street o en nikkisplace.net

One of the Most Anticipated Coasters of 2022, SeaWorld’s ALL-NEW Ice Breaker, Now Open to the Public


One of the Most Anticipated Coasters of 2022, SeaWorld’s ALL-NEW Ice Breaker, Now Open to the Public.




One of the Most Anticipated Coasters of 2022, SeaWorld’s ALL-NEW Ice Breaker, Now Open to the Public

  • SeaWorld’s ALL-NEW Ice Breaker opens to the public with an ice ribbon cutting ceremony
  • Ice Breaker is SeaWorld Orlando’s first launch coaster, featuring four launches, both backwards and forwards with the steepest beyond-vertical drop in Florida
  • Ice Breaker named one of the most anticipated coasters of 2022 by USA Today
  • Park features the most coasters in a single theme park in Orlando

SeaWorld’s Annual Pass Members were the first to experience the ride during exclusive previews in addition to special benefits like free parking, free guest tickets, savings on merchandise and more. 



ORLANDO, Fla. (February 18, 2022) -The moment that SeaWorld guests have been waiting for is finally here as one of the most anticipated coasters of 2022 is now open to the public, the ALL-NEW Ice Breaker.  The coaster opened today commemorated with a special ceremony featuring the breaking of an ice ribbon, in keeping with the ride’s Arctic theme. SeaWorld Orlando, voted the best amusement park in the country by USA Today 10Best Readers’ Choice poll in 2021, features the most coasters in a single theme park in Orlando. 

Named after the icy Arctic summits, Ice Breaker features four airtime filled launches, both backwards and forwards, culminating in a reverse launch into the steepest beyond vertical drop in Florida - a 93 feet tall spike with 100-degree angle. The thrills continue as riders fly over a near vertical tophat maneuver into a series of exciting twists, turns, and airtime hills. The brand-new coaster is located across from the park’s Wild Arctic exhibit and complimented by the popular themed Glacier Bar and Altitude Burger.

“Our Annual Pass Members had an exclusive opportunity to preview the ride prior to opening and the feedback is fantastic!,” said Park President Kyle Miller. “Ice Breaker is a one-of-a-kind thrill ride which complements our existing exhilarating ride portfolio perfectly. With the opening of Ice Breaker, SeaWorld features the most coasters in a single theme park in Orlando and we are excited to introduce the rest of our guests to this highly anticipated coaster today.”

Reflecting the company’s commitment to conservation, SeaWorld welcomed Tara Riemer, President and CEO of the Alaska SeaLife Center to the grand opening. Primarily dedicated to marine research, education and wildlife response, the Alaska SeaLife Center mission matches closely to SeaWorld Orlando’s, making them a perfect conservation partner to help educate riders about the Artic and its inhabitants.

 

“The Alaska SeaLife Center is excited to expand our partnership with SeaWorld.  This new collaboration will enhance our mission to share Arctic and sub-Arctic rescue and conservation stories with the public, especially SeaWorld visitors,” said Tara L. Riemer, President and CEO of the Alaska SeaLife Center.  “For many years, SeaWorld has been a devoted supporter of the Center’s Wildlife Response program and has assisted the Center with incredible animal rescues including Aku the walrus and Tyonek the beluga whale.  This close collaboration is possible because the Alaska SeaLife Center and SeaWorld both meet the exceptionally high accreditation standards of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, meaning that care of rescued and resident animals is second to none.” 

 

The best way to experience the ALL-NEW Ice Breaker is with a SeaWorld Annual Pass. Annual Pass Members enjoy 12 months of visits with special benefits like free parking, free guest tickets, access to special VIP events, savings on merchandise and more! Annual Passes start as low as $13/month with no down payment. Restrictions apply.

PAUL MCCARTNEY ANNOUNCES THE GOT BACK TOUR, HIS FIRST LIVE SHOWS SINCE 2019

PAUL MCCARTNEY ANNOUNCES THE GOT BACK TOUR, HIS FIRST LIVE SHOWS SINCE 2019

McCartney Makes Debut Performance at Orlando’s Camping World Stadium on May 28


ORLANDO, FLORIDA [February 18, 2022] - “I said at the end of the last tour that I’d see you next time. I said I was going to get back to you. Well, I got back!” ~ Paul McCartney.

 

Following more than a year of speculation, Paul McCartney today announces the GOT BACK Tour, a 13-city return to U.S. stages, kicking off April 28 with his first-ever show in Spokane, WA and running through to June 16 in East Rutherford, NJ. McCartney returns to Orlando for his debut performance at Orlando’s Camping World Stadium on Saturday, May 28. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, February 25 at 10 a.m. E.T.

 

American Express® Card Members may purchase tickets before the general public beginning Tuesday, February 22 at 10 a.m. E.T. through Thursday, February 24 at 10 p.m. E.T. For more information, visit PaulMcCartneyGotBack.com.

 

McCartney will make additional debuts with the GOT BACK Tour in Hollywood, FL; Knoxville, TN and Winston-Salem, NC, his first Fort Worth, TX and Baltimore, MD shows since 1976 with Wings and 1964 with The Beatles, and his first Oakland, CA date in 20 years. The tour also includes stops in cities where McCartney has put in more recent, yet unforgettable performances, including Boston, MA, Los Angeles, CA; Orlando, FL; Seattle, WA and Syracuse, NY. 

 

The GOT BACK Tour will mark McCartney’s first series of live shows since his Freshen Up Tour wrapped in July 2019. Featuring McCartney’s longtime band - Paul “Wix” Wickens (keyboards), Brian Ray (bass/guitar), Rusty Anderson (guitar) and Abe Laboriel Jr. (drums)—the tour used enhanced state-of-the-art audio and video technology ensuring an unforgettable experience from every seat in the house. The 39-date 12-country odyssey concluding with a triumphant sold-out show at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles—a performance which instantly attained legendary status, generating rave reviews and best of 2019 accolades including:

 

“… Wow. After several decades now of writing about music and facing the perpetual challenge of translating what is beyond words into understandable language, that’s the best I can muster. Here in the heady aftermath of Paul McCartney’s final show of his Freshen Up tour at Dodger Stadium along with 50,000 of my fellow Angelenos on July 13, 2019 — Wow.” ~ American Songwriter

 

“The perfect display of the philosophy McCartney has embodied over his 60-year career in music… the perfect bow to tie up the perfect show, with the final lyric of the night an ever-appropriate one: ‘And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make.” ~ Billboard

 

“Macca continues to put artists half his age and younger to shame with epic shows featuring his crackerjack band and a jukebox of hits.” ~ Entertainment Weekly Best Live Music Performances of 2019.

 

“The best thing about a McCartney show is how many generations of people leave with the broadest smile upon their face. Whether it’s the first time they’ve seen him or the tenth, he never, ever disappoints.” ~ Flaunt

 

“McCartney was in top form, his voice effortlessly climbing to the heights it always hit so easily back in the day…” ~ The Los Angeles Times

 

“The total and complete immersion into Macca Land was colorful and loud, rocking and rolling, nostalgic and present, and, above all, in the truest sense, marvelous… And, in the end, the love McCartney has taken for 60 years was equal to the love he’s made for generations.” ~ Relix

 

“Definitely we’re amazed by Paul McCartney’s blowout Dodger Stadium Show… McCartney remains a show-stopping entertainer of the highest order.” ~ Variety

 

With songs like “Hey Jude” “Live and Let Die,” “Band on the Run,” “Let It Be” and so many more, the McCartney live experience is everything any music lover could ever want from a rock show. Expect hours of the greatest moments from the last 60 years of music—dozens of songs from McCartney’s solo work, Wings, and of course, Beatles catalogs, which have formed the soundtracks of our lives. McCartney and his band have performed in an unparalleled range of venues and locations throughout the Americas, the U.K., Europe, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and all points in between, including outside the Coliseum in Rome, Moscow’s Red Square, Buckingham Palace, The White House, a free show in Mexico for over 400,000 people, the closing show at San Francisco’s Candlestick Park where The Beatles played their final concert in 1966, a 2016 weeklong visit in the California desert that included two headline sets at the historic Desert Trip Festival and a jam-packed club gig for a few hundred lucky fans at Pappy & Harriet’s Pioneertown Palace, and a one-time performance broadcast live into space.

About Camping World Stadium

Camping World Stadium is owned and operated by the City of Orlando. Since opening in 1936 as a Works Progress Administration project by President Franklin D. Roosevelt at a cost of $115,000 and a capacity of 8,900, the stadium has undergone numerous expansions and name changes over the years. The historic venue underwent a massive $207.7 million reconstruction in 2014, which yielded 90% all-new construction and a completely modernized stadium. Its sustainable design achieved a LEED Silver Certification for new construction from the U.S. Green Building Council. In 2021, the stadium underwent an additional $60 million in construction upgrades and enhancements that included adding approximately 3,800 permanent seats on the North Plaza deck, creating a new premium Club Level on the east and west sides and installing more restrooms and concession areas for general admission. The continued investment has bolstered Camping World Stadium's ability to draw high-profile events like neutral-site college football games, the NFL Pro Bowl, WrestleMania, Monster Jam World Finals and big-name concerts while retaining its signature annual bowl games and events.
