It’s an amusement park designed for people who are tired of the latest and greatest roller coaster rides. There’s something rather gentle and innocent about this place but even though they don’t have a fast coaster ride they still manage to squeeze a smaller one into the park as well as a bunch of other fun rides that are actually designed with smaller folks in mind.
