A few weeks ago, I noticed that the large parcel in Impish Glee, the region just to the north of Masocado, that had been up for sale had been purchased. And soon I began to notice some building activity going on there. Would it be a competitor offering rentals? Another marina? Something atrocious like the ninety meter tall pink Barbie castle that had infested the parcel for a couple of months?
A few days ago, my curiosity got the better of me and I popped over for a closer look.
It was an amusement park. I love amusement parks, and have visited some really great ones in SL, so I wandered about and started playing with the rides and attractions. The first one I rode was an enormous roller coaster with loops and a 360 degree roll. The cars ran on a pink track. The ride was properly thrilling, and at several spots I threw my arms up in the air and challenged gravity and speed to do their worst!
There was a Tornado, a tower that blows a column of air up and lets you skydive while hovering stationary. An archery game. A water pistol arcade challenge. A gypsy fortune teller. There was a rocking Pirate Ship, a Beanstalk, and a hoverplane ride. There was The Geyser...a platform that got blown aloft atop a powerful fountain of water. A Ferris Wheel. And of course, the Clown College Bumper Boats.
