We called it '
The Rockets' for fairly obvious reasons and this was our next stop on the tour of the park. It was chosen because it was something which we could take Ben on but more importantly it was right next to the Carousel! Apart from the location, it had other similarities with the previous ride namely the fact that it just spins round and round BUT this time with height! It's starts off quite tamely but at full speed, I was trying not to contemplate how far we were from the boarding point in the middle or the CSI episode where the screws untighten on a rollercoaster! However the highlight for my brothers were the fact that they recorded Ben's reaction in the middle of the ride and let's say that Ben was rather keen to get off '
the flying machines' at that stage - you can always rely on your uncles for
sympathy. It's a shame they didn't YouTube it!
