The Shark Experience

Posted on September 8, 2009 in Uncategorized by

Six Flags Discovery Kingdom not only features thrill rides, but is also home to a unique collection of animal exhibits.  One of my favorite animal encounters is the Shark Experience located right next to Thomas Town.

The Shark Experience is an interactive, walk-through aquarium that features multiple forms of life.  The main tank features a moving walkway where guests get to watch...

One ride that has always fascinated me was Gardaland’s Fuga de Atlantide.  I have seen it numerous times on Intamin’s website but never took the time to search for some videos of it.

Carowinds had a slight lead in the poll the entire time and in the end won by 1 vote. This clearly shows that height and speed aren’t everything.

The Poll:

Which of the 'Intimidators' are you...

Posted on September 3, 2009 in Uncategorized by

Last night I saw the firs airing of the sequel to the popular Extreme Terror rides on the travel channel. It was easy to tell that I was underwhelmed.

Clearly, Travel Channel did not spend nearly as much money as they did in the original, because most of the footage was from the same park over and over and over again....
