We were in SoulSeek and 3rd gen and tc were talking about Alton Towers.

And I said it seemed kinda like Kings Island.Which is my Favorite.Always has been.Only an Hour or so away from Louisville.

It is Home to "The Beast".Which when Built back in 1979 was the World's Longest Wooden Roller Coaster and still is over 20 Years later.7,400 feet of track at speeds of over 60 mph.

Not very Fast I know.But the Wood makes it ohhh so nice.My Favorite Ride.....

Whats your Favorites?Or some that are close by?

My first experience of Amusement Parks is Linnanmäki which
is located in Finlands capitol Helsinki.

I think i was about 10:ish and we got this class trip on the school just for that,
was 4 hours drive on a buss, one way.

Anyhoo, they got the roller coaster made of wood too, actually really old,
done in 1951 (found the info on that site, English btw)
That thing was scary, it squels like a pig while on it, lol,
its not the Speed or the Length, but the feeling that if you gonna get out o it alive
is very much there....

Been on that roller coaster few times afterwards also, and it is just giving scearier rides everytime.

I like the <a href='http://www.gronalund.com/attraktioner/]Gröna Lund too,
thats in Stockholm. (that link is in Swedish, there is English version, but thats PDF file)

And of course, Särkänniemi wich can be found in Tampere, Finland. (link English)

Nowadays im a bit too old to go to those machines im afraid,
i'd probably hurl all over...
