How much is the energy bill of a theme park?

Disneyworld Magic Kingdom apparently spends $800,000 per day on power!

However I'm sure sure how reliable it is. I have a gut instinct saying that quota is for all three of their parks in California, Florida and Paris.

If this be the case then about $260,000 a day!

For other parks, it varies. I.e. Millennium Force's chain lift alone uses 600 kwh. In a 12 hour day that's 7,200 kwh which is about $4,000 per day. Multiply that by how many coasters are in the park.

An average amusement park, we're looking anywhere between $50,000 and $150,000 a day!

What are some of the best rides in Legoland Billund?

Not sure about Billund, but I found this for Legoland Florida. Here it's all geared toward kids from 36 inches and up, so 4 to 12 years old have the fun. Three rollercoasters but nothing so long that they didn't want to back on over and over again.

There 's something for everyone. They just opened a new water park - wave pool, slides etc. Giant botanical garden that was Cypress Gardens (the 1st theme park in Florida).

A bunch of shows for the kids, water skiing and Pirate show. Four or five roller coasters, lot of cool rides, short lines, healthy food. It's a great value. Centerpiece is miniland - 20 million legos of New York, San Francisco, Washington, Vegas

Did they close down dueling dragons a ride in islands of adventure?

After I wrote a e-mail to Universal Orlando to ask them if Dueling Dragons would be close on our family vacation ( January 3 to January 15 2010) this is the answer they gave me back.

At this time, The Flying Unicorn® and The Enchanted Oak Tavern® have permanently closed as construction continues on The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™.

As of this writing, Dueling Dragons is not scheduled to be closed during the timeframe of your visit; however, please be advised that our operating hours are subject to change at any time without notice.

So it will be open at least until the 15 of January.

What is the difference between at the park and in the park?

What you asked was confusing but I think I can answer your question. The difference is 'at the park' is when you are outside the park and going in (or out) and in the park is when you are physically inside the park.

Or you could say I will meet you at the park .............meaning outside

Or I will meet you in the park...........inside
