Prim hearts.

I found this place yesterday, it's actually a store, but it sells amusement park rides, and the sim-store is a giant amusement park.

Check it out, it was super fun, really.

ETA::

This coming from a girl who had never wanted to try roller coasters in SL. I didn't see the attraction (No pun intended), but I spent about two hours there yesterday, just riding stuff, wandering around, and I had a blast. Loved it!

There is one in Tsukiji (I searched for "rollercoaster" to find it), it's quite good, only thing missing is sound effects. Be sure to use mouselook!

None off the top of my head. Just search "Amusement parks" and start exploring.

Altho- it'd be sweet if someone made Kennywood Park in SL ;)

Prim hearts is my first choice. The log ride is awesome and never fails to impress me and anyone I have shown it to.

I don't recall the name but there is a ride where you get on an inner-tube and slide down this very long and twisting slide from a very great height. It's not at prim hearts. I remember trying it a long time ago.

Amour Amusement has a small and larger roller coasters there. I also got a kick out of the bumper cars and race track.

i can't remember if it's a roller coaster or log ride, but there's some stuff to do in Killtower... it's all strung out, so you gotta go find the hidden swan ride. that's a pretty little romantic one.

i think, too, there are some hidden love caves in the sky. i don't remember how to find them, except that i was all alone when it began... on a picnic blanket. LOL

Check out the coaster at Carnivale Royale, too. It's different and fun - especially in mouselook!

Hi Atom :)

I was just there the other night!

BTW...what happened to the amusement park on Galveston Isle? That used to be one of my favorite places.
