A trip to north Lincolnshire
Today we went here.
It had fairground style rides,
Tommy Tinkaboo’s Sweet adventure, a water based cute dark ride with an annoyingly upbeat catchy tune, 
A sea lion show,
A parrot show, where one of the performers decided to ad-lib and sit on Spongebob Squarepants in the front row,
Karen’s favourite, A parachute drop ride…
With 6 drops, 2 missing and 2 not being used- big queue!
A mine train,
A variant on the Rotor (stick to the wall like flies)
The falls of fear- (Fear that you might have gone down that disconnected tube!)
My favourite- the Boomerang, a classic Vekoma ride. Pulled up one of the towers, then thunder through the inversions, followed by the same backwards.
A leisurely paddle boat ride on the lake,
David’s favourite- the cycle monorail.
This is Alakazam and it is rather evil! Look at the riding position, reminiscent of Air at Alton Towers…
…but it does this and pulls lots of Gs. I came off dizzy!
It was a glorious day and even Cleethorpes looked worth a look on the way back home. (It doesn’t on a dull day!)
The staff at Pleasure Island were all very friendly and the food was OK, although the service was a bit ropey.
We also saw a slightly dodgy show called the Musical Time Machine with six energetic singer/dancers. They had over the ear mouth mics- that went behind their heads and over the other ear- no transmitter pack, miming, just for show!
