Info on the new Simpsons ride and a picture http://www.themeparkinsider.com/reviews/universal_studios_florida/the_simpsons_ride/ looks and sounds cool

I'm going to a zoo and aquarium some point this summer.

Does that count?

Are going on rides there? If so yes.

Our source reveals that the revamp will incorporate prequel characters (like Naboo citizens and Geonosians) along with many aliens from the original trilogy (Aqualish. Bith, Rodians, etc). In the action sequence, the Star Tours vehicle is now going to be chased by Boba Fett. C3PO and R2-D2 are still the hosts, and Anthony Daniels will be recording his parts this week. Admiral Ackbar holographically communicates with the Star Tours vehicle.

Pretty cool that they are revamping Star Tours.

Star Tours is pretty awesome.

As long as they've got Admiral Ackbar there to announce whenever there's a trap, I'm happy.

Amusement parks and theme parks - isn't there a difference? I don't know that I've ever been to a "theme park". As far as amusement parks - I love Cedar Point; it's the closest major park around here and pretty much where everyone goes when they are going to go to an amusement park. I haven't been in a few years but I'd like to go back this summer.

Usually my wife and I will go and make a weekend of it. When we were still in high school we used to get up super early, drive down there (about 3 hours), and drive back late at night.
