The park is right next to Lake Erie and this huge tower, called THE WINDSEEKER, is right on the waterfront. It's basically like a 300 foot tall version of the swings, but it was actually pretty terrifying to be up that high just blowing around on the swings.
Then it was time for rides! Check out how beautiful the rides there are! These rides make me so nostalgic. They are the same rides that were on all the Jersey Shore pier amusement parks we used to go to when we were little.
The view from the top! Only Meredith and I were brave enough to go on the Sea Dragon on a full stomach. Hahah. You can see my whole family sitting on the benches down there watching us.
Needless to say, we road that shit like three times! Hahahah. After the mall, our original plan was to go to Bernadette's skeet shooting club, but we ended up losing track of time at the amusement park by the time we were ready to head out, the shooting club had already closed! So after the mall, we went out for an Italian dinner (where I strangely didn't take any photos)...
Check this jim-jam out! It's a giant robot arm that has a two-person ROLLER COASTER seat attached to where you'd expect to find the giant robot hand! Meredith and I watched it for like 10 seconds and then we were like, "Yes, I think we'll try that."
The driver is buckled into a racing seat that sits on a platform that's supported by four hydraulic legs that tilt, shake, vibrate and dip the "car" to mimic exactly what the car would feel like as you drive it on the track.
No caption I can write will really do this ride justice. Not only was the ride awesome and huge, it was made all the better by the fact that it was hard for your brain to believe that something that big was operating indoors.
This thing was RIDICULOUS! It wasn't so much of a ride as much as it was a robot-experiment in how much g-force humans can sustain without dying. No rhyme, no reason. Just a giant robo-arm whipping us around hurky-jerky and willy-nilly!
This ride sucks. It only ever scared one person ever. (and that was because he laughed so hard at how stupid it was that he scared himself). I want my four tickets back.
