SeaWorld Brings Antarctica To Florida
"Only SeaWorld and its parks can take you on these journeys or bring these experiences to you," said Terry Prather, SeaWorld Orlando's president. "We're excited about what the future holds for our parks and our fans.
First, guests will meet SeaWorld star, a young gentoo penguin and the ride's guide who leads guests on a journey through the Antarctic. Casting the park's colony of penguins, including gentoos, rockhoppers, adelies and kings, guests' experiences with the penguins will be a theme park and zoo first.
Empire of the Penguin will be the coldest theme park attraction in the world with the temperature set to the low 30 degrees to maintain the penguin's natural habitat. Antarctica – Empire of the Penguin is the biggest expansion in SeaWorld history, hosting the ride, penguin habitat, a gift shop and a restaurant. It is so big that it is considered an all-new "realm," rather than a single attraction.

Very cool (pun intended). The Disney parks are always expanding. I hadn't hear of anything until now about Sea World stepping it up. I wonder if the park will provide warm jackets for the ride?

It does relates to religion if you think about it, but some people don't believe in religion. It's an interesting question that I want to see what people respond to me.
