Theme_Park_Insider

By Robert Niles: In response to many, many requests, I finally have added the Walt Disney World water parks to the Theme Park Insider listings.
http://www.themeparkinsider.com/art/news/blizzard-beach.jpgWe now have pages for Blizzard Beach (http://www.themeparkinsider.com/reviews/blizzard_beach/) and Typhoon Lagoon (http://www.themeparkinsider.com/reviews/typhoon_lagoon/) on the site. If you've visited one or both of these parks in the past year, please click over there and start submitting your ratings and reviews of the various attractions there.
Those parks join SeaWorld Orlando's Aquatica (http://www.themeparkinsider.com/reviews/aquatica/) as the water parks listed on the site. I'm not planning to add more at this time, as those are the three most popular themed water parks in the world.
Busch Gardens name changes
Also, I have changed the names of the two Busch Gardens parks on the website, back to Busch Gardens Tampa (http://www.themeparkinsider.com/reviews/busch_gardens_tampa/) and Busch Gardens Williamsburg (http://www.themeparkinsider.com/reviews/busch_gardens_williamsburg/). This is after consulting with folks at Busch Entertainment Corp. and thinking about what I thought worked best for the site.
Officially, BEC calls each of these parks simply "Busch Gardens," though it appends those extra names for various marketing campaigns. Two parks with the same name won't fly on the website, though, for a variety of reasons having to do with not only the site's publishing system, but also readers' ability to know which park's attractions they are rating or reading about.
So, for simplicity and ease of understanding, I am using the city in which each park stands, Williamsburg and Tampa, to denote which park is which.
