LL IN ONE SPOT.
IT IS YOUR GETAWAY BAG IF YOU
ARE A GANGSTER.
>> Eden: YOU GOT AWAY AND NOW
WE GET TO GET AWAY WITH YOU
VICARIOUSLY, RIGHT?
>> Rance: YEAH, WE WENT DOWN TO
UNIVERSAL'S VOLCANO BAY TO GET A
LOOK AT WHAT TO EXPECT IF YOU
WANT TO TAKE THE FAMILY DOWN TO
THE AMAZING WATER PARK DURING
THE SUMMER BREAK.
♪♪♪
THE RIVER CITY LIVE FAMILY
IS EMBARKING ON ANOTHER
ADVENTURE.
WE TRAVELED DOWN TO UNIVERSAL'S
VOLCANO BAY FOR A TRUE WATER
PARK EXPERIENCE.
LET'S CHEKZ CHECK IT OUT
CK CHECK IT OUT.
I HAVE THE PLEASURE OF STANDING
HERE WITH DALE MASON, WHO IS THE
VISIONARY -- CAN I CALL YOU THE
VISIONARY --
>> SURE, IT SOUNDS GOOD.
>> Rance: VOLCANO BAY AT
UNIVERSAL.
THIS IS VISUALLY STUNNING.
HOW LONG DID THIS PROCESS TAKE?
>> THIS HAS BEEN A SIX-YEAR
JOURNEY FOR US.
WE BEGAN SIX YEARS AGO AND
STARTED THINKING ABOUT HOW TO UP
THE ANTE ON THE WATER PARK
EXPERIENCE.
THEN WE WENT AND DESIGNED THE
REAL DESIGN PROCESS.
TRAVELED ALL OVER THE WORLD AND
VISIT VARIOUS WATER PARKS.
IT IS A COOL JOB, I HAVE TO SAY.
WE CAME BACK WITH ALL THE
KNOWLEDGE THAT WE NEEDED TO MAKE
SURE WE MADE THIS PLACE
EXTREMELY SPECIAL.
>> Rance: I THOUGHT I HAD A
COOL JOB, BUT IF YOU GET TO
TRAVEL ALL OVER THE WORLD TRYING
OUT DIFFERENT WATER PARKS, I
MIGHT TRADE WITH Y.
>> WE HAVE TWO RIVERS HERE.
WE HAVE A LEVEL OF HOSPITALITY
HERE THAT IS UNLIKE ANY OTHER
WATER PARK AS WELL.
THERE IS THIS RESORT FEEL
THROUGHOUT, WITH OUR CABANAS AND
FOOD AND ALL OF THAT, THAT
BASICALLY RAISES THE BAR ON
WATER PARK EXPERIENCES.
>> Rance: THIS IS DEFINITELY
FAMILY FRIENDLY FOR KIDS YOUNG
AND OLD, BUT YOU HAVE SOME
SERIOUSLY THRILLING RIDES.
CAN YOU TELL ME ABOUT THEM?
>> ABSOLUTELY.
WE WANT ATTRACTIONS FOR ALL AGES
BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THAT VOLCANO,
ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS IS
THAT WATERFALL.
YOU ARE GOING TO RIDE DOWN THAT
WATERFALL THROUGH THE TUBE.
THE WATERFALL IS THE STORY OF
THE PEOPLE THAT LIVED HERE.
THEIR CHILDREN CLIMBED TO THE
HIGHEST CLIFF AND JUMPED INTO
THE OCEAN AND THAT IS THE
EXPERIENCE YOU ARE GOING TO
HAVE.
IT IS 125 FEET IN THE AIR, WHICH
MAKES IT THE TALLEST, FASTEST
TRAP DOOR BODY SLIDE IN THE
WORLD.
>> Rance: HAVE YOU GONE ON IT?
>> ABSOLUTELY.
>> Rance: IS IT ALL THAT AND
EVERYTHING?
>> IT IS ALL THAT AND MORE.
IT IS.
YOU HAVE TO DO IT.
>> Rance: I'LL DO IT.
FOR YOU GUYS AT HOME ON RIVER
CITY.
YOU TALK ABOUT THE CABANA
EXPERIENCE AND THE RESORT FEEL,
GIVE ME AN OVERVIEW ON THAT,
PLEASE.
>> WE HAVE 51 LUXURY CABANAS.
WE HAVE CABANAS FOR LARGE
GROUPS.
DOUBLE DECKER.
ALL THE AMENITIES YOU NEED IN
IT.
IT IS A WAY TO STEP OUT OF THE
CHAOS AND FUN THAT IS GOING ON
AND RELAX AND STEP BACK.
>> Rance: I THINK I'M GOING TO
ENJOY THAT AFTER I GO DOWN THE
WATERFALL.
WE ARE DOING IT BIG FOR YOU
RIGHT HERE ON RIVER CITY LIVE.
THANKS FOR JOINING US, SIR.
AND THANKS FOR THIS CREATION.
YOU KNOW I HAVE TO DO IT UP FOR
YOU GUYS TO GIVE YOU THE TRUE
RIVER CITY LIVE EXPERIENCE

>> Eden: THAT WAS A LONG RIDE.
>> Rance: IT WAS A COMMUTE.
IT WAS SO -- IT WASN'T AS
INTENSE AS SOME OF THE RIDES,
BUT IT WAS VERY THRILLING.
YOU ARE LIKE, I'M STILL GOING?
>> Mark: HOW LONG TOTAL DO YOU
THINK IT WAS?
>> Rance: THAT ONE WAS PROBABLY
A LITTLE OVER A MINUTE.
>> Mark: THAT IS GREAT.
YOU WAIT IN LINE FOR 45 MINUTES
FOR A WATER SLIDE THAT YOU ARE
DONE IN TEN SECONDS.
>> Rance: WELL, THE BIG
VOLCANO, THAT ONE IS A HIKE TO
GET UP THERE AND OVER JUST LIKE
THAT.
>> Eden: THAT IS THE ONE THAT
GOES STRAIGHT DOWN?
>> Rance: THERE ARE THREE TUBES
-- BLUE, GREEN AND RED -- AND
THE SUPER CRAZY ONE WAS THE RED
ONE.
BUT THE ONE WE ROAD, YOU WILL
GET YOUR THRILL OUT OF IT.
>> Eden: IT IS NEAT HOW THE
WATER PARKS HAVE BEEN EVOLVING
OVER THE LAST 10, 20 YEARS.
BEFORE IT WAS SLIDES AND YOU'D
DO SOME TWISTS.
NOW IT IS A VOLCANO.
>> Rance: WE TALKED ABOUT THE
CABANAS WHERE YOU CAN TAKE THE
FAMILY AND RELAX.
THE FOOD IS AMAZING.
WE GOT TO SAMPLE SOME.
>> Mark: I KNEW SOMEHOW,
SOMEHOW YOU WERE GOING TO TALK
ABOUT FOOD.
COMING UP YOU HAVE MORE ON
VOLCANO BAY.
>> Rance: WE ARE GOING TO TALK
ABOUT THE TECH.
BE LET ME GO BACK TO THE FOOD.
>> Eden: AND ALSO, IN THE
COMING DAYS WE'LL HEAR ABOUT
YOUR OTHER PART OF YOUR ORLANDO
ADVENTURE, WHICH WAS THE WHOLE
NEW AVATAR PART OF DISNEY.
>> Rance: YEAH, WE WENT TO
DISNEY, WE HAD THE PANDORA WORLD
OF AVATAR.
TOMORROW WE ARE GOING TO SEE THE
NEW FIREWORKS SHOW THAT THEY
