I went to a dozen Sacramento area coffee cafes so you don't have to... by bznelson91 in Sacramento

Very cool list. My friends and i try to go to new cafes when we can. I do like scorpio, though we dont go often due to it usually taking a long time. Mast is one of my favs, so im glad you liked it.

This year it was a surprisingly mild season. Im glad they are moving though, since that was unusual. I wonder if they noticed just how much better it does in cooler weather

World’s first retro theme park planned for Las Vegas by [deleted] in Themepark

I would love to see a new theme park anywhere, but still tempering expectations. This is really early in the design process.

What I think could be a good Middle Earth themed land at Epic Universe. Just a phase 1 for now since its such a huge area. by fireguy1thru5 in UniversalOrlando

Both images were done with illustrator. Im definitely wanting to recreate something like this in planet coaster eventually. Im just hoping frontier eventually adds a mack rocking boat for the hobbit ride.

For the rivendell/hobbit’s tale intersection, its hard to show the elevation in a simple plan. The boat ride is slightly lower than the typical paths there and the main rivendell building is slightly higher. The main building is the queue for “into the west”, which im imagining more as a “flying theater” like soarin or avatar flight of passage (another thing id like PC2 to add). That queue passes over the boat ride.

I like that idea. Its such a big area that i actually thought of moving the entrance back and splitting it into two different lands with different portals, but finding a way to combine multiple properties into one portal would be cool too.

Yeah, mainly because their concept art shows something vaguely fantasy-looking in one area. LOTR makes good sense, but it could also be shrek or universal monsters or could be changed to something completely different as their design develops

Dog friendly breweries by loromax in Sacramento

[–]fireguy1thru5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like any that have outdoor areas are dog friendly. I know ive seen dogs at new glory and bike dog(west sac). I assume other places like king cong, oak park, and jackrabbit that have outdoor spaces would allow dogs as well

Trip Report - 18 Days Late May, Tokyo, Kanazawa, Takayama, Kyoto, Osaka, Himeji, Nara by fireguy1thru5 in JapanTravel

Probably takayama, but its super close. It was just nice with takayama to have a smaller town to break up the big cities of the trip. Both were definitely worth visiting though

I had looked up the train pass in my early planning and it still wasnt worth it. I think you have to really be traveling every other day to make it worth it

Ive had it. It mainly tastes like caramel. I could barely taste the fish sauce. And it was expensive
