What do they do with this during the April-October period when routine thunderstorms, rain and high winds rush through the area daily? It would seem to me they've got a Golden Zephyr type experience here, where the attraction shuts down indefinitely with winds above 10 MPH. I'm thinking that balloon will spend most of the day sitting on the ground during the busiest tourist seasons. But on days that it can work for a bit, it's a nice view of Disney property.

I will have to try the balloon attraction at San Diego Wild Animal park before the green spring grass goes summer brown. Watch out WDW, SD wild Animal park has added a Zip line attraction, are you next?

Mr. Hill mentioned ziplines for Night Kingdom, and I chuckled thinking that Wild Animal Park got 'em first.
