this is Orlando sentinel now Dwayne, I want to come over to you now for the latest developments on what is going to be central florida's newest theme park coming in. Very cool stuff. We're talking about the Peppa Pig theme park that's quickly approaching. Before we get into the details that we've learned about what's new. Can you tell us what is the epic theme park? So Peppa Pig theme park is being sort of conceived by Merlin Entertainments group. It's a british concern, which also brought us Legoland florida. It operates Madame, tussauds and sea life aquarium. It's a big theme park operator. They're building a Peppa Pig theme park basically in the parking lot of the giant Legoland parking lot. So it's a little strange, little small. It's completely geared to preschoolers, you know, age 0 to 5 and so everything is small, but they've also built all the rights as if we're one, the adult can ride with the kid on it at the same time. So we had a, a hard head tour last week. Uh, there's a lot of dirt, there's a roller coaster in the middle of all the dirt that had a vehicle on it already. Uh, we can see Pepe's house, not quite done, some other structures, you can see where the sidewalk is going to be in, things like that, but uh, they are scheduled to open sometime next spring, Watch Orlando sentinel now live every weekday at noon on our facebook page and on Orlandosentinel dot com
