As part of running your own theme park website, visiting parks and taking photos/videos is pretty important. We took a trip up to Adventure Island as a way of getting rid of the closed season depression and had an amazing time! Not only that, but we took over 400 pictures between us all! Of course, they will all be featured on the site soon!
The park is a great little seaside park that offers a great selection of Thrill Rides and Roller Coasters, as well as a compact and forceful experience in RAGE! The Gerstlauer Eurofighter. This brilliant compact coaster is nothing short of special, it gives a fast paced and smooth ride that really gets the heart racing, but of course, there were no break downs for Emma to get stuck on, which we all know she really wanted.
We hit up pretty much the entire park after a nice long drive there, thanks Laura! The ride selection here is great and it's one price with no entry fee which really makes this little park really good value. Not only that, but the rides truly are something unique.
Not only is there a massive selection of big thrill rides, but there is a great combination of small rides and kids rides that are pretty cool. We made sure we rode everything we could, and with Lil' Laura in tow we had a good excuse for checking out it all!
Heres the videos:

| Yep.. I was operating Over The Hill for most of the day on Saturday. There were a couple of points where I wasn't on the ride though. I didn't see you (or if I did I didn't recognise you from here!) so if you went on OTH it might have been while I was doing something else.. |

| That was the one ride we didn't go on! Damn! We really wanted to, but ran out of time unfortunately. We'll make sure to say hello next time we visit! |
