Thanks to my sister for sending me this one. Katrina did an absolute number to New Orleans. The city has recovered in many aspects, but there are still some areas that will never fully recuperate. Case in point? Six Flags New Orleans, which has been abandoned since the hurricane in 2005, and has literally been […]
Ever ventured to Universal Orlando’s Island of Adventure, and taken a walk through Marvel Super Hero Island? It’s great to ride attractions and walk through a theme park experience based on some of your favorite comic book characters, but I’ve got to say, I’m a little bummed that, since the opening of Islands of Adventure […]
If we geek about it, we speak about it here at IoM, and Christmas is definitely something we geek about! And you guys know how much I geek out about theme parks…so I’m glad that, even though I live in Virginia and not someplace like Orlando, I still have a Christmas theme park event I […]
Arrr me mateys! Mrs. Awesome and I recently had the joy of visiting Captain Cline’s Pirate Ghost Ride in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I’ve been wanting to visit this thing for years (actually, when I wanted to visit it originally, it was Captain Cline’s Pirate Adventure Ride) and have always seemed to miss out on it. […]

For part one, click here… And so it continues… Though a “new age of darkness” brought with it a downpour of rain, we were not swayed in our attempts to trek through all eight of this year’s Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights haunted houses! While I may have been a little disappointed with some of […]
I have faced my Fear…and come out alive! Last night, Mrs. Awesome and I attended the opening night media event for Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights event, and we had a blast! Originally, I wasn’t terribly excited about this year’s event – the information seemed to come out later than usual, the website a little […]
Tonight, face to face, I get to see all of the people in this video… I’ll have a ton of pictures and reactions to the event over the weekend! So exciting!
