Amusement Parks Tempt Customers With Summer Fun
Lots of fun for thrill-seekers! Crazy coasters and the Drop Of Doom! Sounds like lots of fun or does it? Great stuff for adrenaline junkies, but not everyone is into fighting the crowds for a few seconds of fun!

How to build a roller coaster :pac:
The video description says, "Modern computing and manufacturing has made building a roller coaster a lot like putting together a Lego set." Sounds like a fun project!

Legoland Theme Park Threatened By Forming Sinkhole
More random than an earthquake, there's been about 300 sinkholes in Florida in the last ten years or so. Some guy was sound asleep in bed when a sinkhole swallowed him and his house. His body was never found. This sinkhole is across the street from the entrance to Legoland. My understanding is that Disney World is not too far away. It would be sad if the Magic Kingdom disappeared into a bottomless sinkhole along with dozens of people on vacation!
:shock:

I guess this means that it's finally open. :pac:
The Verrückt waterslide is the tallest in the world, standing at more than 168 feet tall.
